Simply Seafood Market & Oyster Bar

I was in town for an overnight stay and the hotel recommended this as the best place for seafood. They were not wrong. The staff was very friendly. Their steamed shrimp with their house seasonings was so good I ordered another pound. This is not a fancy restaurant, but the food and service made it feel like it was.

If you know the owner, they seat you first. If you don't, you are out of luck and forced to wait.

Great local restaurant. My daughter just moved to the area and we went there to celebrate her move to and check out a good local restaurant. We were not disappointed. It was everything a good local place should have. Great service and great food.

I am writing this sadly about a place that we come to almost once a week and order take out from often as well. I have known the family or family members that own this restsurant for many years. We have always enjoyed going there with our kids and grand children. The back room is great because the kids can play on the playground. Tonight however was very different. For the past several weeks there has been a group of teachers and people that come regularly as well. They are all adults who are having adult beverages and vaping at the table. The get louder and louder each week. We have said a few times that we don’t understand since they are regulars as well why don’t they move them to the bar area and let the families with children sit near the playground area. Well tonight topped it off. This same group was so loud that a couple and their very elderly mom had to ask to be moved because of the noise. She wears hearing aids and could not hear anything over their noise. A couple with two
Small little girls also paid for their drinks and left instead of eating dinner. Another elderly couple ask for to go boxes because it was too noisy. While the server we had (not the owners) was trying to take our order she couldn’t even hear us. . I saw one of the owners and simply asked if there was any way she could ask them to keep it down just a little so others could enjoy their dinner, I was told “no they are regulars that come every Wednesday”. I informed her that we were regular Wednesday night patrons as well because we see and especially hear them each week. This week was just exceptionally loud. She informed me that she would not ask them to keep it down some. I said do you realize two families have already left and one family moved rooms because of them! She said well you can move in the front room. I said we come here because we have kids that we can’t see play unless we are in this room. That is why we come there. She said well I am not saying anything to them.

I say all of this to let you know that what was once a family owned and family friendly restaurant is nothing more than a bar that serves food now. The language and vaping alone from this group was bad but a restaurant owner letting 4 other families leave because of them says a lot. Even worse these people are educating children.
READ THIS !!!!!!!!!
If makes me sorry that I defended them a while back.when they were being bashed for food and service. You have now lost 27 local family members who will never come there again. When your liquor tab is more important than the people who live and work within walking distance and frequent your “restaurant” or should I now say bar there is an issue. I am disappointed that a family that once owned and operated other restaurants and built a name in customer service has become this! Sad day for Lynn Haven.

When one of these patrons pulls out drunk and kills someone then maybe you will see that the families that came there should have been your priority. Disappointed is an understatement.
