U.S. Hwy 19 N. in Clearwater has a new addition to its
growing reputation as ‘restaurant row’ now

and Grill has joined its ranks.
As part of a growing international
network, this one is the latest

as far away as Berlin, Germany.
This is not just another beer and burger joint
as anyone who visits will quickly observe when entering the
beautiful environment that serves as its location in North
Pinellas County. From the lush tropical landscaping to its
rich dark wood and glass work, this place personifies what it
means to be “casually elegant”.
The irony of being a burger based business in such beautiful
environment is quickly lost when one realizes that there is
