This hidden gem is amazing to visit. It was a chilly day when we visited but we ate on the enclosed patio for a relaxing meal. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. We will definitely be back when it’s warmer to enjoy the water view cafe there.

I went here for lunch with two friends. It was easy to find a parking space in the big lot. We were immediately taken to a table outside overlooking boats and the water. All of us loved our food. The service was perfect. The price wasn’t overly expensive considering the atmosphere and the quality of the meal. I would definitely come again the next time I’m at Apollo Beach.

5:45 on a Thursday 9/18/2025 – half empty – hostess led us to the first table next to the hostess station and the door to the patio where it was too hot to eat outside. We asked to sit further in , away from these high traffic areas. Hostess said no , had to keep her server table rotation. I asserted that we wouldn’t sit at that table and hostess slapped the menus on the table and said “enjoy”, then zipped out of sight . On the way out she denied saying that but did not offer to resolve the dissatisfaction. Attitude was NOT welcoming . Actually kinda rude.

We left and had a very nice dinner at The Vineyard, down the road on Apollo Beach Blvd. Photos are from The Vineyard – which in addition to great food has consistently friendly service.

We live here and have eaten here many times. something is not right at Circles. Maybe not what it has been? Anyway, why spend $$$ when from the start you are treated poorly?

To the servers at Circles – your hostess cost you a nice tip on a light evening. Maybe it’s a fluke but I would keep an eye on her.

Lunch at Circles Waterfront Restaurant in Apollo Beach felt like a little coastal escape. Sitting right on the water, the laid-back vibe and breezy views set the tone for a relaxed, sunshine-soaked afternoon.
We shared a spread that hit all the right notes. The Baja Fish Tacos were fresh and flavorful, with perfectly cooked fish, bright toppings, and just the right balance of crunch and zest. The Cajun Sea Scallops were tender and beautifully seasoned—rich, and cooked just right. And the Grouper Bites were a table favorite: light, crispy, and unmistakably fresh, perfect for sharing and dipping while watching the boats in the marina.
It was the kind of lunch that makes you slow down, savor every bite, and appreciate good food in a great setting—classic Florida waterfront dining done right.

We love Circles! They have a nice restaurant or you can chill at the tiki bar. Their huge drink menu combined with their wonderful fresh seafood is a perfect place for a casual afternoon hangout or a nice meal with family or friends. The surf and turf is our favorite, but the grouper sandwich is pretty amazing as well!

We chose this restaurant based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews, but unfortunately, we won’t be returning due to consistently poor service.

To start on a positive note, the lounge area was excellent while we waited for the rest of our party to arrive. The seating was spacious, we were able to order drinks comfortably, and the lounge waitress was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. That part of the experience set expectations high.

However, once we were seated in the main dining area, the experience took a sharp turn. The waitress assigned to our table was flat-out unfriendly from the start and remained that way for the entire evening. In addition, the hostess staff made the night particularly off-putting. When another person from our party arrived, it somehow turned into a whole ordeal — despite there being nine open tables and no wait. Two employees unnecessarily escalated the situation, creating tension that completely killed the vibe. We ultimately left earlier than planned because of the staff’s behavior.

The food itself was genuinely tasty, and the menu offered a wide selection of appealing options. Unfortunately, good food alone isn’t enough to make up for service that makes guests feel unwelcome.

Paying premium prices for drinks and a meal meant to be enjoyed with friends and family, only to receive consistently crappy service, is simply not acceptable. We will not be coming back, nor would we recommend this location to others.

Excellent food. My family and I love to go here. My daughter loves their kids burger. The crab blt is spectacular. Their scallops with bacon and crack is whack shrimp are delicious appetizers. Until next time. ✌ And yes, we keep going back.

We had an amazing experience at Circles Waterfront Restaurant and a huge part of that was thanks to our incredible server Zippy! From the moment we sat down, he was warm, attentive, and full of fantastic recommendations! His personality just lit up the room!
Based on his suggestion we tried the Crack is Whack Shrimp and WOW. It completely lived up to the name! The shrimp were perfectly cooked and the sauce… absolutely addictive. I couldn’t stop talking about how good it was, and without even asking, Zippy brought me a whole cup of the sauce to enjoy. That’s next-level service!
The food, the view, and especially the service made this a 10/10 dining experience. If you’re heading to Circles definitely ask for Zippy! He’ll take great care of you.
