“The Surf & Turf was Excellent!“

“Ate there today and food was fantastic! I had fish Ruben Grilled and I was amazed at how much flavor was in that sandwich.. Going back again for sure. Ask for code for parking lot so u can get more then 30 minutes“

“Great seafood, great waitstaff, great view!“

“Delicious and fresh fish. The live music was awesome! It was a wait, but so worth it. There are inside and outside options to eat. The sunset view is gourgeous!

Dietary restrictions: The server was kind to check what my daughter could and couldn't eat. She was safe eating here.“

“Our server, Lauren, was friendly and fast! We ordered three appetizers as an afternoon snack for three people and it was plenty of food! The pretzel is adorable and delicious! Love the presentation - so fun for a vacation destination appetizer! The crab fries were crispy, garlicky, and covered in crab meat! The jalapeno hush puppies were so good.“

“Great place to sit and watch the harbour, boats coming and going, people walking through. Food is great, fish tacos are excellent. Staff are very friendly and attentive. One of our favourites when we come to Clearwater.“

“If you’re a seafood lover, then Frenchy’s is an absolute must-visit! Nestled along the beautiful coast, this gem offers a fantastic dining experience with mouthwatering cuisine.

From the moment you step inside, the vibrant atmosphere welcomes you, and the friendly staff make you feel right at home. The menu is packed with an array of fresh seafood options, but the star of the show has to be the legendary crab fries. These crispy, golden fries are topped with generous portions of succulent crab meat, drizzled with a zesty sauce that perfectly complements the flavors. They are, without a doubt, a must-try!

Every dish we ordered was fresh and flavorful, but the crab fries stood out as the highlight of our meal. Pair them with a refreshing drink from their impressive cocktail list, and you’ve got a match made in heaven.

Whether you’re dining with family, friends, or that special someone, Frenchy’s provides the perfect setting for a memorable meal. Don’t miss out on this seafood paradise—your taste buds will thank you!“

“Great place! J was awesome !“

“Our favorite Sunset dinner spot. Great food, service, live music & sunset views. Ask for outside seating away from the band and enjoy the view. Even for lunch, the views are still pretty amazing of Clearwater Beach. It's Public Beach parking & usually crowded. We have never not found a spot to park. Even in the busy season. Full bar and the staff are attentive. Enjoy your dinner & a show.

Parking: Most of Clearwater parking uses the Park Mobile app. It's quick and easy. Kids show your parents if they have trouble.“

“Always perfection. The view and service are too notch. Drinks are delicious and the food is fabulous,“

“This was our first time ordering. I have a friend whom has posted pictures and it looked really good. Well it’s amazing! I had garlic shrimp, my husband fried fish and my daughter shrimp Alfredo. No complaints. Will definitely be visiting again soon.“

“Gina is the best bartender ? ? Pineapple margarita was fab and the blackened grouper tacos are thee best fish tacos I have had in my LIFE!! ?“

“Great experience, Jessica is a great waitress, had great service“

“My experience at Frenchy's was AMAZING! My son and his best friend came to visit from Texas last week for my sons and my birthdays. They are from the panhandle, so there no seafood for hundreds of miles, haha. My husband loves seafood as well. However, I have a severe shellfish allergy, so needless to say, he doesn't get to eat it often. I messaged Frenchy's a month or so prior and explained the situation, and they were so great in explaining how they treat patrons with allergies. Jules (i hope i remember this correctly! We were there about 9pm on 9/11/24) was our server, and she was awesome! She was so understanding and assured me that they would take all precautions. I ordered a cheeseburger with a side salad, and my family was able to enjoy their fresh seafood meal, and there was no anxiety on anyone that night. ❤️ They even have a working menu for gluten-free folks, which tells me that they really are trying to accommodate everyone. I am so excited that my husband and I now have a local restaurant with fresh seafood and plenty of options for me to go to for date night or any other time! Thank you so so so much, Frenchy! Jules is an awesome server, and she was professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure our night was the best. Note to allergy sufferers - they DO fry the shellfish in the same oil as other fried foods. I had the cheeseburger, salad, and chicken quesadilla for an appetizer. Delish.“

“What a walk down memory lane this is!!! We haven’t been to Bobby’s Bistro, or its more upscale sister restaurant the Beachcomber in years. Twenty years ago, these two restaurants were the absolute “It” place, the best in Tampa. Amazingly, the decor is exactly the same as 20 years ago but somehow doesn’t look dated at all. The food was fantastic. We met George, our server, who is a bit of a celebrity, and he was super nice and gave me a supersized shot! Glad to give this notable establishment a great review!“

“Service and food were excellent. Very clean restaurant, and restrooms. Every employee had a smile on their face“

“Overall, our experience was terrific. All the staff is friendly and polite including our wait staff. The service was great and the food was great. If I had to nitpick one detail, it was very loud. We dined indoors. The room would benefit from sound absorption materials to reduce the noise level. At times we felt like we were at a nightclub needing to speak loudly to hear each other. No, we don't have impaired hearing, in case you're wondering. LOL...We will return and dine outdoors next time.“

“World-class steaks and chops and impeccable service.“

“Bonefish is the bomb for takeout!! We did this for Mothers Day dinner and couldnt be happier! Food was fantastic! And we added food last minute!! Thank you Bonefish for a job well done!!“

“Bijoux was excellent. This was our first time here and we already booked to come back in 2 days! The staff was wonderful and made our experience that much more enjoyable. Olga was our waitress and she was very knowledgeable about the menu and also joked around with us and had a good time! I cannot recommend this place enough.“

“Such a fun hidden gem. Food was delicious and the staff were prompt and very friendly. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the margarita which they took off my bill easily. I can't believe I've never been here before but I'll definitely be back.“

“Really nice open environment on the water. Laid back vibes and outstanding food. Dee was terrific and really made the space feel friendly and welcoming. Chef came out to deliver the food and make sure we were happy with it. And we loved everything we got. Thanks to Dee, especially, and to the whole team for making it a great experience! We'll definitely be coming by Fridays to check out the live music and soak up some sunset time on the water.

Vegetarian options: Mac and cheese
French fries
Salad
Grilled corn and pepper
Tomato bisque“

“The managers both Carlie and Justin were both very accommodating when I called to make a reservation for 20 to celebrate a birthday at the restaurant. Our server Devon did an outstanding job and was absolutely fine regarding our request for multiple checks. The food was simply delicious and the prices were reasonable. They allowed me to bring in a birthday cake and they served it for no extra charge. We were all extremely happy with the service provided and will definitely return!!“

“Best Donuts in all of Clearwater. Staff was super friendly and helpful!“

“I recommend EVERYTHING, there appatizers and cocktails were amazing, which we 2 nights ago, and last night I had to try there steaks, and again I was blown away. I had the CAB BONE IN TENDERLOIN, Oscar style. WOW!! Steak was done perfect, and taste amazing.. They have the most polite staff on the beach, our bartender (gabriella) was amazing, and if my wife would let me I would eat there every night of our vacation!!!“

“Im a frequent visitor of the "left coast" beaches. This trip brought me to Clearwater for an afternoon Phils game at BayCare Ball Park....Stopped in Philly Joes before the game. Had a great initial feeling when we walked in when some local firefighters were enjoying their lunch. Always a good sign...Split a cheese steak fried onions and order Fries with the wifey. Had the steak with Joes homemade velvety smooth cheese sauce which was delicious. Also was provided with couple side cups filled with the cheese sauce to dip our fries. Steak was delicious and roll was OK. I'm spoiled living here in the Philly area as far as rolls go. Food was prepared and served by Joe himself who was behind the line. Place was incredibly clean which Joe took an incredible amount of pride in when we spoke to him for a few mins on our way out. Joe is a true NE Philly guy that's putting out a great product in the Clearwater area.“

“We found a hidden gem!! The food is very authentic, flavorful, just outstanding!! It felt like eating at Diana’s and Julio’s house! They were super attentive and so sweet! You can tell they put their heart and soul in their food and establishment! Definitely going back to try their breakfast items since we went there for dinner! I had la bandeja paisa and the chicharrón was the best I’ve ever had! The empanadas were so tasty and piping hot and the buñuelos and almojabanas were fresh! This will definitely be our go to restaurant for delicious Colombian food!! Hands down the best!!“

“Best place to eat Puertorican food 10 out of 10“

“Our initial visit experience this evening was 5 star and we were made to feel like family. Paulo welcomed us and then his daughter Ilaria took over and walked us through a flawless journey from wine to our incredible meal. Homemade pasta, Paulo’s personally made bread, and much more. We look forward to returning and will refer our friends to this awesome restaurant. Marlene, David, and our little pet Morkie Gracie. Grazie Paulo.“

“An authentic Mexican restaurant run by authentic Mexicans. Unfortunately, the restrooms are also authentically Mexican.

Parking: The parking lot is small, tight, and difficult to maneuver in. Forget turning around, you will have to back out.“

“Love love this place! Amazing food and drinks, service second to none, and they make such a fuss over our little Yorkie. Even have a dog menu.“

“This restaurant was great! The food was good, the service was on point with Kassie as our waitress and the view was wonderful on the 3rd floor taking advantage of the sunset and boat docks. If you want an outdoorsy type dinner and great views of the beach, gulf, and pier, this is the place to be! Kassie was great and very attentive! She took our pic of the wife and I while the sun was setting on our anniversary. She came to our table to make sure the sun was setting to get the best pic. It had to be done within minutes, or you can miss the moment. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be back as soon as I can. My wife had the salmon and I had the Cajun chicken pasta (photos attached). We were so satisfied! Almost forgot to mention the desert, I had the key lime cheesecake and my wife had the bananas foster cheesecake ? wonderful!“

“We had at rehearsal dinner at the Marina Cantina and I could not be more pleased with how it turned out. Leading up to the event, we worked with Nina very often and she was extremely communicative and kind. She helped ensure our event was well prepared and it truly was! The food was absolutely delicious, our guests were raving about everything! I even heard a guest say it was the best rehearsal dinner food they have ever had! The servers, bartenders and staff were on their A game and kept the space clean, especially during the meal and dessert transitions. I am so glad we choose the Marina Cantina for our event. 10/10 recommend!!!!!!!“

“This was a great beach bar restaurant. We are doing window film on the new Winter the Dolphin's Beach Club. Not too many places are open due to the circumstances but I had an amazing grouper sandwich and I saw the attention when and to everyone wearing gloves and they were super prepared. Great job. I would highly recommend this beach bar restaurant.“

“We have an awesome Dinner with close friends and family for my son's 17th birthday .. the service is excellent., we are seated in a private room and we have the room to ourselves.. we loved the food and the staff that serves us was amazing! I'm very bad in names so I don't remember his name .. would be great to try the sunset dinner someday ( the times are booked that night ) .. I will definitely be coming back soon ?“

“Finally found a great Chinese restaurant ! Love the food here. You will not be disappointed! Large portions and sharing easily feeds 2-3 people.“

“This place has the BEST margaritas and you can not beat the price. It’s $11 for these HUGE margaritas that are strong but still delicious. BTW they had agua fresca margaritas, I tried the watermelon agua fresca margarita and it was a 100/10. Also my fiancé had the mango one was good also but if I were you I would try one of their agua fresca margaritas since it’s freshly made and not a syrup or flavoring.“

“I ordered on UE. My order was delivered faster than I expected. I ordered Orange chicken for my child with fried scallops, and Chicken Mei Fun with a small egg drop soup for myself. The portions were so large that we were able to save some for later ? The food was still hot when it arrived and absolutely DELICIOUS!!! I will definitely order from here again.“

“Excellent service - GREAT food!“

“I have ordered chinese food many times before and most of the time I was disappointed. This time, however, the food was hot when it got here.It was delicious one of the best chinese places I have ever ordered from easily The portions were very adequate I could highly recommend this place. I will definitely order again . I ordered.
The general tso chicken, Chicken lo main and Pork rolls. Very yummy“

“Everything was delicious ♥️“

“This place has the BEST wings in town and price point is right on! Not only that, the staff is always helpful and upbeat. The facility is clean and well kept and everything they offer is freshly made and done to the highest degree. Will definitely be back.

Parking: Plenty of space.

Kid-friendliness: As kid friendly as every other restaurant. Highchairs available if needed.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible.“

“Great restaurant. Not like a chain at all. Fantastic staff too!!“

“Super and friendly service, great views, food and drinks were excellent and reasonably priced!“

“Just got our first delivery from here. Solid take out that came in less than 45 minutes on a Friday night at 7pm. We eat our fair share of a Chinese food and this was different in good ways. General Tso's chicken be has was fresh and not overly breaded. The steamed dumplings were light & flavorful... Not that thick, doughy stuff were used to. House special soup seemed like it was just made. Fresh veggies, wonton that were light like the dumplings, not even remotely overly salty like most we've had. This will definitely be our rainy, movie night go to place!“

“This was definitely one of the best places I visited on my vacation. Food was amazing and the service was more then expected. I would definitely recommend trying it out if you’re in the area.“

“Fast friendly service with the best food around.“

“Had a small bite here and some delicious watermelon margaritas. So refreshing. The service left a lot to be desired but the food is good. I wrote a review on yelp which is screenshot in the pic below“
