If you’ve spent any time on the beaches between St. Pete and Clearwater, you may have at least seen or heard about MiddleGrounds Grill, which bills itself as “the best steaks and seafood on the Gulf beaches,” and although there are a lot of great steak and seafood places along Gulf Blvd. (including another on these pages below), it’s hard to argue with Middle Grounds’ still-swimming fresh Gulf fish or thick, tender “wet-aged,” certified Angus steaks.
My favorite dishes at Middle Grounds to date are the fresh grilled, blackened or sautéed Gulf grouper, the sesame-crusted, seared yellowfin tuna sashimi (don’t be shocked) and the espresso-rubbed New Zealand rack of lamb, served with oven-roasted fresh veggies and garlic mashed potatoes, as well as the thick, 12-oz. New York strip. You can add a 6-oz. lobster tail to that, as shown in the picture above.
For more info, visit MiddleGroundsGrill.com or Facebook.com/MiddleGroundsGrill. Check them out at 10925 Gulf Blvd. on Treasure Island or give them a call at (727) 360-4253.
