19 Best Seafood Restaurants in Saint Pete Beach

“I’m a local. This is a good spot.“

“We ate here 2 nights while staying on the beach this week. The hummus and flatbread along with their house salad for a starter was sooo good. The coconut shrimp was good and the coconut curry snapper was the best fish I have ever tasted and I grew up in Florida. The dish is not sweet and the flavor is amazing along with fish cooked perfect. Don’t hesitate to eat here it was our best meal when in St Pete Beach. Thanks Snappers we will be back!“

“Always enjoy this place when we come to Florida. The clam chowder is so good ! The crab cakes were flaky and delicious, the langostino lobster pasta dish is a must. Everything here is 5 stars but at a 2 star price! Server was also very kind“

“We went to Shrimpy's (mostly NOLA style food) for my wife's birthday dinner with our sons. It was our first time. Our table was on the deck right on the water. There is ample seating inside as well. We had grouper bites and hush puppies as starters and a bowl of gumbo which were all delicious. Each of us ordered something different as a main course but everyone thought their food was delicious. We shared a sundae and NOLA-style bread pudding which were also very good. If you don't like loud music or sounds, you should sit inside.“

“Such a gorgeous view on the water! We just had appetizers shrimp cocktail but they were delicious! Valerie the bartender couldn’t have been any nicer! We had a great time! Can’t wait to go back!“

“We were disappointed Monday...... they were out of coconut shrimp, the fish special, and their normal French fries. Although we mentioned how bad the French fries were to the waitress, no substitute was offered. We also had to stop another waitress to get drink refills. I emailed the restaurant, but no response. The wharf is our go-to restaurant at St Pete Beach..... the fried shrimp and fish basket were very good, but we were surprised at the food they were out of at 6:30 at night.“

“We dined on Easter Sunday 2025 and experienced the most fabulous food, atmosphere, and service!“

“I came here to celebrate my friend’s birthday What a great choice! Terrific food, great atmosphere and fabulous service by Whitney with a lovely view“

“First off I don't know how anyone can give the place less than 5 stars. The waitress was in a fantastic mood and very helpful when suggesting the appetizers and local favorites. The food was fresh and full of flavor. Honestly the best lobster mac and cheese i have ever eaten. My wife had the meat loaf and is usually negative about how it presented and taste however she couldn't stop eating it.
Olivia was awesome and made the experience so much better 🙏“

“We enjoy the service, food, drinks and atmosphere! Love the margarita in paradise, really enjoy the breakfast and Eddie is always a great waiter!“

“Top tier service today while visiting with my dog, Ranger! He was set up with cold water immediately and got lots of love. Our server was amazing, above and beyond. Even checking the temperature of my dogs food before giving it to him 😂 My food was absolutely delicious! Great environment, beautiful people 🥰“

“Great location with good food, drinks and great service. Best place for sunsets and catching your favorite sports“

“Had lunch at Crabby Bill's today. Blackened grouper sandwich was fresh and tasty, onion rings were just right, and our waiter, Jaxon, was excellent. Always enjoy Crabby Bill's when we're in Florida.“

“Great on the beach location“

“Had a perfect dinner tonight starting out with Sarina seating us and working hard to clean and seat people. Our server Brittany was awesome. Always checking on us. Food was amazing. Two awesome team members for sure! Thank you for a great night.“

“Branzini is a new standard for great Mediterranean Food In St Pete and the entire Tampa Bay Area - The owners and staff ( Especially Tazo and Natatia ) are so inviting and helpful that you just can't find a better restaurant experience in our opinion - The chicken dish was my favorite - my wife loved the seafood and pasta dish and the wine and beer selections are very well suited to the dishes they serve as well. Deserts off the charts ! Just go and enjoy yourself immensely without breaking the bank ! There is also some fine live music from time to time . Call ahead because it's sure to get busy as the word is traveling fast!“

“We visited twice during our annual stay and loved it! The food was amazing and staff were very friendly. I would recommend this place off the beaten path because of the great service. We will 100% be back again and will tell our friends to make a stop. Thank you to the nicest staff for making our visit so lovely.“

“We had the Seafood Broiled platter; Stuffed Flounder and Gyro platter. This was the best food we’ve had while in St. Pete! Our server, Lauren was wonderful! The Manager works with the wait staff to ensure everyone gets seated immediately. The prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. We will definitely go back and recommend Skidder’s to anyone visiting. You won’t be disappointed or go away hungry.“

“Rumfish Grill 8-24-24 The restaurant opens at 5pm so we made reservations the day before for the first seating at 5pm. We arrived about 4:25pm and went to the bar for a drink before dinner. Four things right up front to remember that we did not know but learned fast. First you must pay $10.00 to park to go into the restaurant or bar unless you are staying there. 2nd Parking, restaurant, and bar ONLY take credit cards but can take tips in cash. 3rd this restaurant is not for everyone as it has a very limited menu and it’s pricey. 4th if you make reservations make sure you ask for a table at the aquarium as these tables go first. The restaurant opens at 5pm and the bar is open from 11am to 12am. The Bar only has a very small menu so if you want dinner you have to go to the restaurant where the 33,500-gallon aquarium is located. We got seated at 5pm and Audrey took our drink order and left menus for us to look over. When she came back, we asked her if we could move to a table as we asked for that when we first arrived. She had seated us at a ½ booth with cracked bench seat and ½ table. That was too uncomfortable for the wife. We moved to a table and proceeded to order our food. I ordered the Grilled Rib Eye medium well with Yukon Whipped Potato’s. The wife ordered the Angus Filet Mignon medium well with Yukon Whipped Potato’s. Our orders also came with a couple spears of asparagus on top of the potatoes. My dad ordered the kids Chicken Tenders, Fries, and a Salad as he could not find anything on the adult menu he liked. It took a while for our food to come out, so they brought us 3 rolls to hold us over. Once our food got delivered my Rib Eye looked perfect and tasted fantastic it was done just perfect. My potatoes were good, but they were warm not hot but not cold enough to send back. My wife’s Filet Mignon was done perfectly and tasted fantastic, but her potatoes were just warm. The asparagus was cold and hard. My wife had to ask another server to fill her drink up as we have not seen Audrey in a while. She did stop by much later to see if we needed anything. I thought for an upscale restaurant with higher prices the service would be better and the food a lot hotter. The steaks were done perfectly and tasted great too bad they could not pull that off for the rest of the meal. By the way my dad’s Chicken Tenders and Fries were very good, and everything was hot. With the large 33,500-gallon aquarium which was absolutely beautiful and mesmerizing to watch they really have a niche to draw people in. This place could easily be a 5-star restaurant, but it only earned 3 from my experience. ⭐⭐⭐ Follow me on FB for more. Gulf Coast Terry“
