Great food, blackend tuna steak with sweet potato fries is to die for.... served with wild rice and vegie... can't remember the price exactly but around 12 bucks.
The VERY best blues bands in town... cozy and cool has an upstairs seating area you can go if you like a little privicy... Love it.

I so enjoy the casual,yet warm and inviting environment Ringside provides. In our fast paced,chain type,only, choices,I truly find this venue,similar to the Cheers TV get together,relaxin' place!! Laid back,but,being small,tis cozy and the music,is what it's all about! I fear years from now,when we look back,and this place no longer ...

Great music. Saw him last year and going in a couple of days. To bad not promoted. Dont't understand why the don't encourage more customers to come in and listen. Last year they weren't even on the marquee the night of the event! Food is average

Love going to Ringside for the music, but the place needs a some cleaning. We sat at a table that had an AC vent above it and once we saw the dirt we couldnt finish our meal. With a little house cleaning the place would be great for both music and food.

I like the bands - most of them - but the management of the place is pretty amateurish. They don't promote the place properly which would bring out more people.
Could be a GREAT club if someone ran it knew how to market and build a real blues club following.

Great people, eclectic crowd, good food, good blues, good value...even better now that the smokers have to go outside to the porch (but they can still have a cig!). Make sure and catch "Wendy and the Soul Shakers"...

If you like good blues, food, and booze this is the place to be in St. Petersburg. They have all the best local and traveling blues acts in the city. They got the regular bar food but it is inexpensive and big portions. The service is quick and friendly. The drinks are stiff and prices reasonable. You can't go wrong here.
