The Take
Cocktail St Pete scores 61 slop. It is a convenient hotel-bar venue with inclusive 21+ events that leans hard on stiff-drink marketing while serving typical overpriced bar fare.
Locals praise the margaritas and chicken gaysodilla but reviews consistently call out small portions and generic execution attached to the Mari Jean resort.
The Verdict
Book the poolside cabana for the scene, order the margarita and chicken gaysodilla, then leave the fried apps alone. The stiffy LARP and event nights deliver the vibe but the food stays hotel-generic.
Skip heavy fried items or anything banquet-sounding. Slop Score: 61.
