“My girlfriend and I came here for our anniversary so would could eat as much slow crab and crawfish as we could. Was so good we had to order a second tray. Our waitress Chelsea was super inviting, helpful, and never left my sweet tea empty. Couldn’t ask for better service.“
“We loved it . I took my son here after school . Everything was delicious. He had jumbo shrimp that were fried perfectly . I had the poblano tortilla crusted grouper . The grouper was flakey and fresh . I don’t normally like salad but it paired very well with the grouper and sweetness from the corn .“
“Our first time to dine at Sea Grapes and as we walked in we were greeted immediately by the smiling Nina our server and knowledgeable sommelier. Nina was great and she made us feel comfortable and welcome right away. The restaurants atmosphere was upscale casual. Our appetizers and meals were delicious and presentations beautiful. The chef even visited our table. We will definitely return in the near future. Thanks Nina for a great first experience at the Sea Grapes Eatery“

“My dining experience at Snapper's Sea Grill in St. Pete, Florida was nothing short of fantastic! The salad was fresh and had an amazing dressing that added the perfect flavor. Both the grouper and tuna dishes were absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. And let's not forget about the pie - it was the perfect ending to a delightful meal. If you're craving delicious seafood in St. Pete, Snapper's Sea Grill is the place to be!Marisa Balletti-Lavoie“
“Best lobster rolls I’ve ever had!! Even our friend’s from the New England states say this place is great! They might not always have a ton of people working and you might need to wait for your food but it’s worth it! Great customer service as well!“
“This is a keeper! I've driven past it hundreds of times. Went in today for a fried fish basket. I was not disappointed. Everything was delicious, the fries were crisp, the coleslaw was cold and fresh, the tarter sauce tangy, and the fish were perfect! The batter was crisp, but not overwhelming and just the right thickness. I'll be back!“
“My morning at Paradise Grille in Pass-a-Grille Beach was absolute bliss! Sipping drinks by the ocean, surrounded by great company and a fantastic vibe, made for an unforgettable experience. The drinks were top-notch, the view was breathtaking, and to top it off, there was a delightful vendor market adding to the lively atmosphere. Paradise Grille is a must-visit spot for anyone looking to soak up the sun and enjoy the best of beachside living.Marisa Balletti-Lavoie“
“For a waterside restaurant, this place is better than most. The hogfish was excellent! A little disappointed with the fish and chips only because I prefer a beer batter rather than panko breading. The fries were awesome. Good service! We'd definitely bring our out of town guests here.Kid-friendliness: There were a lot of families the night we went. Looks very family friendly.“
“Got to watch the sunset by the pier for our dinner here. Our server, Rob, was super attentive and there was a small delay in our food and he immediately rectified the situation and comp’d one of our meals. He made sure we were comfortable and checked in on us regularly. An amazing experience here. The fries were a bit salty, but otherwise the fish and chips were great overall!My partner got the phillycheesesteak sandwich and it was delicious.“
“Apart from the price (more expensive than usual) which is mostly expected because this is a fish restaurant, yes, the quality and taste of the food are of high quality. Recommending this place accordingly. Inside is quite ok, not ground breaking but very fine. Would have been sitting preferably outside but chilly exceptionally when we ate there.No misunderstanding: do not except cheap prices but this is a Go and we will eat there again.Note: staff is young and cool / doing a very good job too.“
“The foods tastes great, menu is very basic with a lot of options to drinks though.. only issue is bugs and flies do come on you and food. Depending on days lack of servers service can also be an issueWheelchair accessibility: They have a nice open area in the rear where anyone with wheels can easily pull into and should have no issue sitting“
“The Helm is a newly converted breakfast/brunch/lunch restaurant. The food is great and perfectly prepared. Service is extremely attentive. The atmosphere masterfully designed sea themed that is both casual and upscale, which works great for the beach town. Captains daily catch is always fresh and healthy portion. The French toast is to die for. Wish they were open for dinner.“
“Great for Date night. It's Right on downtown strip with plenty of outdoor seating. Tiki Masala was great $18 naan bread was fresh and warm, but small portion of chicken, but it was perfect for me - just giving a heads up for others. Husband got the Hot Nashville chicken sandwich $ 15 and said it was great. Server disappeared for a bit- but overall, it was good ?“
“Our server, Natalie, was very kind and helpful navigating the menu for gluten free options. She advised that the grilled fish or meats and vegetables, coleslaw, and pilaf would be safest. I ordered the grilled grouper with vegetables and coleslaw. The fish was cooked well and the vegetables had a nice soft texture.Dietary restrictions: There are no marked gluten free dishes. However, our server, Natalie, was kind enough to explain which dishes would be safe: the grilled fish or meats, vegetables, coleslaw, and pilaf“
“Just had brunch and it was amazing! Our group got a few things and shared and we loved it all. Crab omelette, stuffed French toast, the bowl and last but not least the breakfast sandwich. The food was a 10/10 but the service I can’t even rate. Joey might have been the best server I have ever had, anywhere. Kind, friendly and attentive! Can’t go wrong eating here any time of the day. For the cherry on top, ask for Joey!“
“I take me & my Girl to DJ'S 2 or 3 x's a week.I always get the lobster roll & conch fritters.Nice healthy lunch.DJ'S Crew is awesome.Austin brought all my food & drink to my truck parked in front & I then paid bill on card & good to go from there.Then slam the lobster ? rolls.Always fresh & delicious,salute. ????“
“Da Sesto continues to be a part of my annual trip to the Tampa area for Spring Training. This is my 6th or 7th year of making Da Sesto part of my dining plans and never disappoints. An incredible selection of food and beverage in a wonderful atmosphere with excellent service. Make sure to leave room for dessert!“
“So when one goes to a restaurant with the word shrimp in the name one expects said restaurant excel at the preparation of shrimp.Oh man did they ever excel at it. We had shrimp in our appetizer and shrimp in both of our mains. They were cooked PERFECTLY.The setting was nice and the service was good.We will be adding this restaurant to our list of regular places we dine.“
“Been here several times, and the service and food is always amazing. Birch and Vine lost my Christmas Eve reservation that I made six weeks in advance and even showed them confirmation on my phone. They didn’t even apologize or try to accommodate us. The manager Parkshore Grill was so nice and understanding she made a table for my family of eight and saved our Christmas Eve.“
“Charlie was a very attentive and efficient server and we had an all-around great experience. Do NOT skip the hushpuppies here, they are some of the best we’ve ever had. Steamed crab legs were incredible as was the ahi tuna. Wish we’d had room for the banana bread pudding but we’ll make sure to get it next time - can’t wait to come back here!“
“Our 3rd year in St Pete’s Beach, our third (or maybe 4th) trip to Shells. We love it here - the pasta is perfectly cooked and dressed, she shrimp is beyond perfect. The fried fish, the crab cakes, the salmon - there isn’t a thing I’ve had here that isn’t great. Also $6 margs that don’t taste just like sour mix and cheap tequila - but are just right on any day. If you have a kid who likes Shirley Temples, order one and you won’t be disappointed by the surprise. Service is awesome! Shells is a must visit in St Pete!“

“Only been here twice since we moved to St. Pete and the staff here are just consistently amazing. Very friendly. Plus the food for its price is just great value for your buck (discount if you’re a Crunch Fitness member). To be honest, their bowl can be good for two people.“
“Went here because I was told the fish nuggets are the best around — and it was so true! The fish nuggets are perfectly breaded, flavorful and have a crunch in each bite that doesn’t taste like grease. The fish tacos came with 3 decent sized tacos — minimal ingredients and big flavors. Everything came super fresh. I believe the nuggets were $16, so they are on the pricey side, but worth a splurge.“
“Had dinner at Coconut Charlie's with my wife and cousins. The food and service was awesome. Some of the best Alfredo I have ever eaten. Cassandra helped us with our orders, each time a new dish came out of the kitchen she would tell us what it was. She was great. Would definitely go back again.“
“We came down for vacation and came right ant the end of closing. We felt so bad and they were so accommodating to us and were super friendly. Lisa was our server and she was super accommodating, sweet, and overall a good presence. 10/10 would recommend!“
“Best food so fast while on vacation. Service was great. Food selection was excellent, I would highly recommend it if you're staying in Madeira Beach. I'm already looking forward to my next stop there before we leave. Small place but the turnaround is very quick.“
“Fun place with great live music. We had an issue with the front host being incredibly rude and wanting to split our party of 8 and said we could not split a bill if we sat all together. The GM resolved it quickly and kindly. Servers were friendly. We only had drinks here“
“Outdoor seating in open or under large tiki Pavillion along a waterway and marina. Servers are friendly and helpful. Mahi tacos are the best I have had outside the keys. Limited menu so everything is made wit care.Parking: Many people ride bikes or walk. Parking is limited but we have never had a problem. Worst case there is parking along the road outside the gate a short walk away.Kid-friendliness: Nice view of water and wild life. All the kids I have seen seem to enjoy the food and relaxed lunch time atmoshete.Wheelchair accessibility: At lunch would be the best time to scope out low table seating and get a feel for maneuvering. Small friendly and yummy spot.“
“I am a former Islander and was so excited when I discovered this place. The owners have done an amazing job of creating an authentic Hawaiian BBQ here. Huge portions and atmosphere extraordinaire!! My partner and I enjoyed the Huli huli chicken plate served with Mac salad and rice. Ono!! And Jenna was very welcoming and displayed a real Ohana image. Check it out and you’ll feel like you’ve taken a local Hawaiian vacation!“
“If you're on the hunt for a slice of Florida heaven, Red, White & Booze in Pass-A-Grille is where it's at! Seriously, this spot is like a tropical oasis meets foodie paradise.So, I swung by Red, White & Booze, and let me tell you, it was a blast! We dug into the Lostber Pasta, big enough to share, and oh man, it was like a flavor explosion in my mouth. Pasta done just right, with all the good stuff mixed in. Yum!And don't even get me started on the drinks! We sipped on the Mango Piña Colada Margarita, and let me just say, it was the bomb. Perfect mix of fruity goodness and beachy vibes.But here's the kicker: sitting outside on a cool night? Absolute game-changer. You've got this killer view of the dock, all lit up and buzzing with marine life. I mean, who needs TV when you've got fish and crabs putting on a show?Long story short, Red, White & Booze is where it's at. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and check it out. Trust me, you won't regret it!“
“New York crab has been my favorite restaurant for over 10 years it’s highly recommended and the food is reasonable and great flavor and u get a free alcoholic drink for the adults u gotta go try them out u won’t go wrong and tell a friend to tell a friend , go on their Facebook page they have a lot of daily specials“

“Great Experience!! The atmosphere here at the Doc Ford's St. Petersburg Pier is just as wonderful as their other locations. Now I can say that I've been to all of their locations!! Great food!! Perfectly Crafted Cocktails!! Fantastic Service!! Fabulous Atmosphere!! And, Especially that "Doc Ford's Rum Bar Vibe" that you can expect to feel at each location!! It's a totally submersive thing that you just feel once you step onto the property!! I had the Shrimp Ceviche paired with the Fried Calamari.... Superb!!My BFF of 43 years and I had a great time!!“
“As you would expect from a French restaurant owned by a French woman, the food is very good, the wine list is very nice, and the atmosphere and experience do reflect old world influences. If we're ever back in the area, I would definitely stop in again.“
“We have been coming here yearly since 2011. This trip I had the pollo verducci and my wife had the rigatoni ala vodka. Both were outstanding. The woman who served us was a delight. We’ve never had anything but a great experience at Verduccis. We highly recommend this restaurant and hope to return for many more annual visits.“
“After staying away for two years, and with the new ownership we decided to give Grace another try. As locals love to support our local establishments. We had a delightful evening, the staff, service and most important the food was delightful!. Mussels, Duck and Scallops cooked to perfection! We encourage locals that had been less than pleased in the past to give it another try.“
“This place is absolutely stunning for spending time with friends and the drinks were simply amazing! Our waitress Pam, who is also an ER nurse like us, went above and beyond to make our experience fantastic. Even Austin, who brought us our food, was friendly and accommodating. It's moments like these that remind us how wonderful it is to have great company and service when we need it the most.“
“Ted Peters smoked salmon is as good as any I have had in my life. I am in my 70's and have been around a little, what a great place, nothing fancy just seriously good food, just as it has been for years in the same location and making great food the same way they have for years.“
“Service was a little slow, cocktails were not as expected flavor wise, but one the high Pluse side the food was fantastic, had the fried shrimp and was way more then I expected, cooked to perfection, wife had blackened grouper and said it was excellent. We will definitely be back next time We're in town.“
“The most darling poke place on the beach. The owner is a joy, great atmosphere, great food, great vibe. After a long day at the beach, try Madbeach Poke for a refreshing, quick, custom poke bowl experience. 10/10!Dietary restrictions: Great for gluten free options and vegetarian!“
“My daughter and I had the best Seafood boil ever for lunch there yesterday! The atmosphere outside is always entertaining. Our waitress, CC, has an amazing personality and over the top service. I've ate here several times and highly recommend their Seafood boils.“
“After deciding not to cook for my Wife bday, I decided to order food here...seen it thousands of times, first time ordering...The Staff is amazing...Tina and David were awesome, very friendly and professional....and the food was to die for...I only had appetizers, Crab Stuffed Shrimp, Bacon wrapped shrimp, basil meatballs, gouda spinach dip and the spring salad...everything was exquisite, fresh and so delicious...and can't beat that southern flavors...I can't wait to try all their other dishes. Highly recommend Bayou.“
“We decided since we had some friends along to try the at the table grilling. It is a lot of fun and the food was very good. We ordered an angry tuna sushi roll as well, but would have had plenty of food without it. The grilling combo we got was for four people and came with miso soup and ginger salad for everyone and then a tempura shrimp appetizer. It came with 4 different meats bone in short ribs, spicy pork, beef bulgogi, and chicken. Along with 2 sets of ban chans the little pickled accompaniments and sauces and bowls of white rice. They have beer and a nice selection of Saki and Soju also. The service was quick and friendly, we went early on Saturday evening. They also have plenty of other delicious food options besides the table grilling, if playing with your food is not your deal.“
“Visited while on a trip to Florida for spring break 2024! I ordered a seafood boil, with a lobster tail...it was a little more expensive than the bags I usually get at home in Cleveland! The food was hot, fresh and nicely cooked, with a variety of sauces. The restaurant itself was nicely decorated and staff was pleasant! Will definitely check them out if I'm ever in Tampa again!“
“Can’t believe it took me so long to try this place. Great atmosphere, friendly owner, staff, patrons. Probably the best fresh fish in Tampa area and it’s local. A bit chilly but they had outdoor heaters and would move them to accommodate patrons. I’ll definitely be back!!“
“I do the Italian thing and I am the "spicy meataball" but nobody does brisket and ribs like Casper. I haven't been there in years and my mom always did a brisket cut on an angle with the bay leaf slow cook with the potato celery carrot onions etc...Casper we haven't broken bread in years and I'm coming cuz I remember this and you are the best“
“Stopped in to support local business and see what the new place was all about. I ordered a skillet along with fruit and coffee. Everything came out quickly, looked absolutely amazing, tasted even better, and the server was polite and friendly. They’ve only been open about 2-3 weeks so it’s a true hidden gem right now. Go stop in and try it for yourself!“
