I was there to meet a friend for lunch and we met half way. This was the first time coming by car as all other times we went by boat which shows the beautiful waterfront view. Coming by car is not having the beautiful view...as there is aside from 2 restaurants not much in the area. The salad with protein was very good and the waitress was very friendly. The only reason for 1 star is that my service dog with visible tag showing she is a service dog wasn’t allowed inside. I was told to sit outside on the patio while temperatures were 95F with feel temperature of 111 F. Since I had surgery 4 weeks ago and I’m wearing a surgical suit under my clothes I was getting overheated within min and had to go inside. Since the manager had told me no dogs allowed inside not even service dogs I was unable to sit inside with my service dog. Luckily I have 2 car keys so my dog went into the car in the AC so we could have our meeting and lunch. It seems the manager needs to be educated on laws for service dogs. Very disappointing and due to the managers actions this may be the last time we ever go there. After moving inside we were given the back corner, worst table and the nice waitress told us we could take any table as she saw that this was not pleasing us. We didn’t want to say much as we both are not confrontational people. When someone has a service dog there is a reason for that and employees should be aware of the rules.More

Great place. But I wouldn’t call this FINE DINNING as Google indicated. The food was good and nice atmosphere. Bathrooms clean. Had the Mamas paint killer (hope it works… will find out if my lower back still hurts). Spinach and fruit salad was flavorful and...other party had the special tenderloin sandwich. He said it was very filling even though it didn’t look like much on the plate. Tonight’s entertainment was waking the next table of 2 teens in their very first date. Humorous watching the awkwardness. Would be back again to try more things.More
Thanks for dining with us, and we hope to see you back again soon.
$100 for (1) titos drink & (1) Jack/coke DBL tall, both very weak so they lost money because we didn't order any more. (1) Daily catch w/garlic pot & kale slaw, was not worth $29. (1) Princess, grouper/shrimp/scallops-too much parmesan sauce on dish & the...sauce taste was to much. The seafood wasn't worth $36.50. Our waitress was not attentive. One of our friends said the crab cakes were good. Was not asked if we wanted another or tea/water. I get prices are high like everything else but people should be happy walking out the door. They should change up on the desserts. What they offered is the same as all the other restaurants. Drove 28 miles one way. Would not be back.More

We always enjoy going to Circles when we are visiting our son in Riverview.This restaurant is one of the best in Apollo Beach and surrounding areas. The atmosphere is great as when it was to hot outside with a storm coming in from the Gulf.We...usually stay inside and it is a great atmosphere. They have a beautiful downstairs for special events and get togethers.We will return!More
Thank you so much for your continued business! We're glad to hear this visit was as good as the rest. Looking forward to having you back again soon!
The BEST grouper bites i have found ANYWHERE and be sure and ask for Jenny ... she is awesome! Also the crab and corn chowder is delicious!
This is precisely what we love to hear! Thank you for the review.
Really nice atmosphere.. friendly and attentive staff.. joined "friends/family" here for dinner before departing Florida.. my grilled mahi with salt, pepper, butter sauce was amazing.. paired with rice pilaf and green beans/carrots and I almost cleaned my plate.. kids menu available, the rest of the...adults had grouper & scallops.. drinks were good and they had a list of signature drinks.. dining room or patio waterfront tables available.. we will returnMore
Thank you so much for the kind words! We're glad to hear we'll have you back. We look forward to it!
Absolutely divine! We loved everything. We went for lunch, family of 7. It was delicious. Brought our six year old; they have lots of rules for children, but it was fine.
We keep going back so it must have something ! The attraction for us being the waterside location and good food. This is all made better when the server is good too , and so for so good, and on this visit nothing had changed..., so another pleasant meal and dining experienceMore
Thank you for the repeat business! We're glad you've enjoyed your time with us!
My wife wanted seafood tonight so we decided to try Circle waterfront. This place looks great …. Beautiful environment… beautiful food but it taste bad. I ordered a ribeye and shrimp and my wife ordered Grouper and scallops. The plates looked great but everything was...very bland except my sauce. It was very salty! We also ordered the crack is wack shrimp appetizer and it had a plastic taste to it… it was so odd. Maybe the oil is old … I don’t know but it wasn’t good. We reluctantly told our waitress and she apologized but then blew it off and never offered a solution. We did give the dessert a try and they were good. We ordered the cheese cake and the crème brûlée. Very disappointingMore

Honestly, this was my second visit. I want impressed the first time but decided to give them the benefit of the doubt because my friend had never experienced the restaurant. It was worse the second go around. The food lacks seasoning. It appears the same...batter is used for everything. The calamari was served with what appeared to salsa from the jar...represented as marinara sauce. The shrimp were jumbo unseasoned gulf shrimp. They were nice size but a terrible after taste. The grouper was meaty but unseasoned. The drinks .....well... they are just drinks. I can't even say I would return for the drinks and the ambience...BTW its a locals favorite. I just dint understand why... the calamari was not fresh..it was just rings. A huge red flag IMOMore

Great food, service & atmosphere. We sat outside, quick service. Ordered artichoke dip & mudslide ice cream cocktail. Both were fantastic. Lots of parking, Will definitely go back & recommend.
Thank you so much for dining with us! We look forward to having you back.
Our first visit to Circles Waterfront in Apollo Beach, Florida was an awesome experience. Not only was the food divine but the atmosphere succeeded our expectations. Circles is a seafood restaurant where every meal is an experience in excellence. The atmosphere especially outside dining area...is spectacular. There are tables right along the waterfront. There is music and there are friendly and helpful employees. Circles is a place you must visit. Look at the pictures that I have attached. Absolutely amazing. The food is fresh, well prepared and so delicious. The gulf shrimp are huge and heavenly.More

My wife and I eat at Circles one every two weeks all winter long. The food and the service is normally very good, which is why we return so often. Today I ordered one of the days specials which was a pasta with sausage and...gulf shrimp. I am 72 years old and I believe that this may be the third time in my lifetime that I have ordered a seafood item that had a bleach taste. It is a very recognizable and unforgettable taste. Without saying anything negative to my wife I smiled and asked her to taste my shrimp, which she did. She immediately looked at me and said that my shrimp had a bleach taste. I ate the other items in my dish leaving the shrimp. When we finished our meals I told our waitress about the problem and suggested that the shrimp may have been treated prior to arriving at the restaurant. She apologized and returned with the check which represented the full price of my meal, which we thought was not reasonable. This is the first time in years of eating out that I did not leave a tip, which in a practical sense reduced my item by 50 percent. We will return to Circle in January 2024 and ordering non seafood items.More
