Hi, Everyone!

I'm looking for a recommendation for a restaurant in St. Pete on a Saturday night. Six mid-age friends, men & women, quiet atmosphere, $15-$20 entrees, traditional American steaks and fish preferred, good service a must. Italian would also be okay, view would be a plus! Any ideas?

Also, has anyone been to Primi Urban Cafe, Horse & Jockey Brit Pub, or Cafe Alma? And first-hand observations on these?

Thanks in advance for your insight!

Anybody ????

I don't dine in St. Pete much and have not been to this place, but it gets a good mention or two on Chowhound, and a friend who is a big fan of steakhouses liked it:

It's on Beach Drive, so while there isn't exactly a view, it's near the Pier and is a great place to stroll. FWIW, it's on my list of places to go next time we're in St. Pete! We like Z Grille, which is Mexican-influenced and a lot more casual than what you're looking for; and Bella Brava is good Italian, but with even less of a view. Am not familiar with the places you have listed, sorry!

Hello?? You were so impatient yesterday...

Sorry, I've had some real life issues to deal with. Thank you very much for the two recommendations. Cassis looks perfect, and I do believe that looks like the Ovation complex. Perfect!

You're welcome! Enjoy!

I've been to Cassis twice and was disappointed both times. Food was okay but the service was poor - an interesting combination of amateurish and arrogant. You'll be much happier at the Parkshore Grill, Ceviche or Bella Brava, all of which are in the same area as Cassis.
