Pier Teaki

Food was pretty decent as mostly its bar bites and shareable items. The 20% tip already added seemed to be fine but it can easily add up. We had 4 drinks and 2 apps and 2 come and it added up to over $130. This was us chilling and killing time before our reservation at the teak right below on the second floor. The place is great with amazing views of the city and that night was full moon and the place looked great. They had a dj that night and it was getting busy. The tables and first come first serve but the cabana are between 100-150/hr. That money goes towards the food and drinks. It best to go and rent those with a group and it might be worth it then.

Had a wonderful dinner at Teak restaurant. Great service and great food! The views are amazing! The Pier Teaki rooftop bar was the icing on the evening! Again excellent service, Matthew took care of us completely! Great DJ and music, and the views are epic! Was blessed with beautiful breezes, weather, and sunset!

We did not eat here but this venue was a wonderful viby break from the hot sun. Sitting at the end of the pier about 5 stories up you get an incredible view if Tampa. The DJ here was absolutely incredible and had a classic 80s vibe that had great moxeses between in and around songs. He just seemd to know what everyone liked. The service was great and super friendly. The unique tiki theme here was also refreshing and different. The crowd was varied but very fresh and everyone seemed full of smiles and we're enjoying themselves. The menu is small but packs a punch and the drinks are plentiful with many different options. The entrances is either via stairs from the front of if you go through the gift shop at the back if the venue there is a restroom and elevator there which will take you to the 5th floor where all the excitement happens. There is a tram which travels up and down the piere to get too and from the venue which costs nothing which stops by every half hour I think. It is quite a long walk and on a hot day like we had it would be best to have some shade. There is an air-conditioned space to enjoy food and drinks on the lower level however we did not go there in this visit. Bring your camera and be prepared to get a great view if Tampa and you can even see the Dali Museum from here.

Sitting up on the roof overlooking the water and St Petersburg is this cute little tiki bar. We came on a Saturday around 12:00 and were able to get a spot at the bar. Shortly after the place became packed. The bartender was great- she recommended drinks and food. The mango salsa with chips was the best we have had. We also got the wings and smash burger. Wings were good- but veggies with them were two celery and two soggy carrots. There is no tipping here as they add a 20% service fee that goes to the employees. Being a former server I did like this as it is Hard to make a living on a tipping system, especially in a tourist area.

Visiting from Cleveland Ohio, walked the pier and rode the trolley, the walk was amazing and the views were unimaginable. The ocean provided the magic and we witnessed a beautiful sunset and so much more. Highly recommend a visit here. We loved it . Can't wait to return.

I had such an awesome time at Pier Teaki with some friends we loved the city view and the server made the experience even better. Aleksander suggested the Kill the Pain cocktail and it was perfect. His suggestions were spot on and I loved the tacos. His presence and humor made for a relaxing and fun atmosphere. I will be back.

You do seat yourself which there are no signs anywhere so a bit confusing when you first get up there. We had a party of 2 so we sat at a high top table with a view of St. Pete. A group of 7 sat next to us and had a server approach them almost immediately. We waited quite a bit and finally that server asked us if we had been helped. He took care of us the remainder of our dinner. It was not very busy as we went at 2:45 pm on a Sunday. A lot of staff looked at us and walked away which I found odd since they are on a commission pay. We ordered the Lobster Empanadas and the Blackened Mahi Tacos. The food was delicious!! It was very hot with no breeze and the server commented that it is like that all the time. Some fans around the place would be nice to move air but it’s Florida, I expected the heat. They do add a %20 service fee which does not bother me however the service was mediocre at best. Great food, great views, bleh service.

Best views of downtown from the water. Gorgeous at sunset! The food isn't great, but be sure to visit for the cold drinks, excellent service (thank you, Ryan R!!!), and views. The DJ added to a fun vibe!
