CL Restaurant Critic Jon Palmer Claridge kicked back with The Getaway at St. Petersburg's Maximo Marina, which offers a menu with lots to choose from. This second location for the Florida Keys-inspired hangout does a temping mix of 20 born-at-the-beach cocktails, alongside coastal favorites like smoked fish spread, fried oyster po' boys and coconut shrimp. The desserts, which include key lime sponge cake and bananas Foster, are even worthwhile. Check out our review here, and peep Nicole Abbett's photos of what Claridge tasted — and saw — during his visit.
