50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Tierra Verde

“Excellent food and service plus very affordable prices! The paella, shrimp+grits and shrimp+pasta were all delicious. However, it was the curry shrimp+rice and the ceviche that were the show stoppers. The curry sauce was absolutely incredible! And the trio of ceviche were so unique and delicious. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Food was delicious. The service was okay it seemed like there wasn't enough waiters at the time. The atmosphere was okay as well. The AC didn't seem to work too well. I would try it again the food was good. I had scallop meal. Drinks were good.“

“the food was incredible and Peter took excellent care of us! we will definitely be back!“

“Signature Smoked Wings (Delicious!) Smoked right out back at Mullet's daily. Try the Dry Rub, House Merman Sauce, Signature Dirté sauce, or Classic Buffalo. Served with house-made ranch or blue cheese.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SEAFOOD EXPERIENCE ON ST. PETE BEACH ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
John John,
I felt compelled to write this because exceptional service and exceptional food deserve to be recognized.
My family and I have been vacationing in St. Pete Beach for the past six years, and one tradition we never miss is a visit to Shrimpy's. What's remarkable is that every single year we come back, the food somehow gets even better. Most restaurants struggle to maintain consistency over time, but Shrimpy's continues to raise the bar year after year.
From the moment we walked through the door until the moment we left, everything was absolutely top-notch. Our server, Jake, was outstanding. He was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table. Great servers can make a meal memorable, and Jake certainly did that.
Now let's talk about the food.
I have eaten seafood all over Florida and throughout the country, and I can honestly say that Shrimpy's serves some of the finest Cajun-style seafood I have ever had. Every dish was cooked to perfection, seasoned flawlessly, and bursting with flavor. The freshness of the seafood was obvious from the first bite, and the chefs clearly take tremendous pride in what they do.
What impressed me most was that nothing felt rushed, pre-made, or ordinary. Every plate that came to our table looked incredible and tasted even better. It's rare to find a restaurant where both the kitchen and the front-of-house staff perform at such a high level, but Shrimpy's has mastered both.
John John, you have built something special. The fact that my family has returned for six straight years—and that we leave more impressed each time than the year before—says everything that needs to be said. Outstanding servers, phenomenal chefs, a welcoming atmosphere, and food that keeps people talking long after they leave.
In my opinion, this isn't just the best seafood restaurant on St. Pete Beach—it's the best Cajun seafood restaurant I've ever experienced anywhere.
If you're looking for authentic Cajun seafood done right, stop searching and go to Shrimpy's. Five stars isn't enough.
We'll absolutely be back next year, just like we've been for the last six years.
And one final piece of advice for anyone reading this review: save room for the bread pudding. Trust me. Just when you think the meal can't get any better, the bread pudding shows up and delivers the perfect ending to an already unforgettable meal.

“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!“

“It's been 4 years since we've eaten at Dockside Dave's, and I still think of their food! A friend of 50 years, used to live in St. Petersburg years and years ago. When we told her we going to Madeira Beach, she said you have to go to Dockside Dave's. Needless to say, we ate there every night. I wish we had one in Oklahoma!“

“4 of 5 Star review Came to Florida for my bachelorette trip and chose this place as the place I wanted to have a “nice dinner.” We had a reservation at 8pm. The bar messed up 2 of our 5 drinks, which the waitress had remade and apologized saying the got a rush. All the food (conch platter, seafood pasta, crab legs, 4oz filet, and fresh vegetable pasta) was yummy and came old hot and well seasoned, though the steak was overcooked (ordered medium) Would have been 5 stars, but our waitress took 40 minutes to simply get us our checks and run our cards😅“

“Amazing location ocean front with a nice size pool and hot tub. Grounds are very well maintained and very clean. We will be back.“

“Authentic, delicious seafood boil. For a great price you get so many different combos. Yes the wait is long but it's because there's one guy cooking everything himself. It's totally worth it. No seating, take out only. Take it back home or out to a park with a group of friends.“

“very good food not over seasoned“

“The Hurricane Seafood restaurant was an awesome experience! We called them the day of to see if they could accommodate 13 collegiate basketball players and their coaches and families, and they made it happen!

“It took about half an hour to get the food after we ordered. We ordered the steak medium rare and it was served well done. When we paid the bill, the waiter mixed up the credit cards with the couple in the next booth. He gave each of us the other's credit card. We asked the waiter for a box, and he too so long we asked a passing waitress for one and she got it immediately.“
