Came here after a day at Indian rocks Beach, they have a location (original) there, but I found out there's is a location in Palm harbor, on my way home to tarpon. This location is way better!! It's (3) levels and I sat at the top on this gorgeous day! Drinks are great for happy hour which runs from 11:00am-6:00pm great drinks for $5!!! I had the BEST Crab Cake since I moved (3 years) to Florida! Don't agree with a $35 dollar price tag..BUT it was Soooooo buttery, that I was scraping my skillet for more. Service was great! They might have been short handed..I'm just assuming...but the waiter was making my drinks! That alone is a SUPER bonus!! All-in-all I will come back! I'll be back for the crab boil..they have (3) to choose from and they look delicious! I was snacking all day, so "Linner" was light. read more

We wanted to take our visiting guests out for some seafood. The restaurant is located off Rt.19 on Florida avenue, in lovely Palm Harbor. We love the beautiful building and decor. It has an old southern feel with its large windows and open second floor. Once seated, we were welcomed by our server Lily, who made recommendations and gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. We appreciated the prompt and attentive service. Lily made sure to check in on us between our servings and was super friendly. The fried calamari was a nice start, the clam chowder was excellent, and our main dish a seafood platter in garlic butter was amazing! Our friends loved their dinners also. We will definitely be coming back to explore more of the menu choices in the future. read more

We ate dinner at the Palm Harbor location last Saturday for the third time. This has become our local favorite restaurant. Their customer service is excellent! Our server Alycia was friendly, professional, and very attentive. The food has been delicious each time. My favorite entree is the blackened salmon, which is cooked to perfection. The restaurant is beautiful with plenty of space to choose from. The live music wasn't too loud, which we have found to be the case in many local restaurants. All in all, a very enjoyable evening! read more

Great Happy hour menu and pricing starting with the fresh Virginia oyster bar. Had a dozen oysters at a$1 each, perfectly fried soft shell crab, with a great wheat beer made exclusively for Crabby Bill's by Escape brewing. Called No Beach Parking. Unfortunately, my wife had a pretty blah "number 10 can" lobster bisque and overly breaded & fried scallops. Service is prompt and friendly especially in such a huge multi-level restaurant read more

This was our first time at this location. It's been a long time since we've been to a Crabby Bills because they are far away. But this one is only a ten minute drive from home. We met our friend at the restaurant & sat at Alicia's table by the window overlooking where we parked. Husband got the popcorn shrimp, creamy coleslaw and fries, I got the grilled crab cake with just lettuce and creamy coleslaw, & our friend got the grouper sandwich with creamy coleslaw. Everything was delicious! And Alicia was so friendly and efficient! She filled our drinks when they get low & whisked away dirty dishes when we were done. We loved the dolphin statue out front. If you look closely, it's made up of cutlery! Enjoy! read more

Stopped in for a quick beer and appetizer, good happy hour deals from open to 6pm. Opted for the oysters and of course.. beer! Ice cold beers and the oysters were incredibly fresh. Being a seafood restaurant it would be nice if they had a mignonette for the oysters. Ambiance was fun for a Sunday Football and the bartender was very attentive and quick. Will be back if we're in the area for dinner or something. read more

Tasty but that was the smallest and thinnest Grouper filet I've had locally. Definitely not worth the $32 price. Seemed like they were short on servers as well - took a while to get refills, get the check, and get cashed out. Overall, a disappointing visit to Crabby's. read more

Crabby Bill’s - Fried Grouper - Seafood Near Me - Palm Harbor, Florida

Crabby Bill's is an amazing restaurant for seafood lovers who want a "beachy" experience. The shrimp appetizer that comes with garlic bread is amazing, and the blackened grouper sandwich was too. The servers were very nice, but the one flaw was the food definitely took its time in coming out (which is to be expected at a great seafood restaurant). However, once I tasted the quality of the fish I wasn't really stuck up on the wait due to the blessing this food was. The battered fries were also great, and nobody at the table really had anything negative to say! Overall, if you are staying in the Dunedin/Clearwater/Palm Harbor area and are desiring a nice chill seafood dinner with high quality and reasonable prices, Crabby Bill's is a great place to visit. read more

The Food was excellent, starting with oysters, then on to the crabcake, followed by a blackened grouper that was to die for. Everyone at the table was pleased to say the least. The best part was our waitress Ciena, who was a delight. She guided us around the menu and pointed out some customer favorites. As far as ambiance it was clean, very nice with dining indoor or out. Of all the Crabby Bill's I've been to this is the best. You can't go wrong if your looking for a fish, this is the place. read more

Found Crabby's Bill by accident during the lady's night out at Salty Lime across the street. You can't miss the white building and big red Crabby's Bill sign. Finally, Crabby has heard my prayer. As usual, we sat at the bar for the convenience of ordering drinks and snacks while enjoying conversation with friendly staff (whose name is Jada), not to mention taking advantage of the 4-6 pm happy hour drinks. The Palm Harbor location offers a larger menu than the ones at IRB. We used to drive to the original CB for its grilled Octopus salad, but it was discontinued. I'm glad I found it at the PH location. The portion was large enough for sharing. The grilled octopus was very tender and flavorful. I also ordered "Crispy Calamari," which came with spicy marinara sauce. It was fried to perfection. Portion is less exciting, but its freshness filled the gap. The total bill during happy hour was under 50 dollars. What a deal. At the next visit, I will get the Tybee Island Seafood Feast. For 52 dollars, it is a steal. The restaurant just opened about 5 months ago. The whole building has a feel of French Quarter of New Orleans . Everything is new and clean. There is an open-air dinning area/bar on the second floor which I assume the live music was played at. According to the website, live events take place Thursday through Sunday from 6 to 10pm. Parking space is limited especially during weekends as Crabby shares the space with other restaurants on the same street. Overall, Crabby's Bill is a great addition to the unassuming Palm Harbor downtown. For me, I am just delighted that my prayer has been answered. read more

Crabby Bill’s - Tybee Island seafood feast - Seafood Near Me - Palm Harbor, Florida

So we couldn't wait to try the new location here in Palm Harbor as we frequented the Indian Rocks location. This place has nose dived on ever way, it was terrible. The snow carb legs size were an absolute joke and came out cold. The grouper nuggets were great I'll give them that. The Mac n cheese was also cold. We also ordered the crusted crab cake app which our sever openly told us she forgot. It magically arrived 5 mins later. It was obviously rushed. My wife and I were the only ones who ate it and spent the entire rest of the night puking from food poisoning. The Caesar salad was also very average and to my wife's point, how do you mess up a Caesar salad. Anyways we won't ever be back. We will stick to Crabby's Dockside and their crab. Such a shame too because the new location is beautiful and had great ambiance. read more

We live in Palm Harbor and this is a great addition to our town. Jada is a superstar behind the bar and server. She really takes care of her customers and his main reasons why we come back at least once a week we had to crab eggs and they were awesome along with great drinks and a lot of fun. read more

My wife and I went to the top deck our first night in palm harbor for a getaway weekend to watch the sunset only to be ignored by the server/bartender for 45 min with at least 5 eye contacts and cold shoulder. Im patient af... but the 5th time was too much. Especially being in the service industry... so I frustratingly wanted to leave, my wife said lets just eat dine in downstairs. WHAT A PLEASANT SURPRISE!! The hostess, Chris our server and Caleb the GM were all very sympathetic and went above and beyond to acknowledge my frustration and make it right. THAT is world class service. Its not what happens, its how you respond. Great drinks, great food. We had the oysters and the seafood boil, all really good. The checked on us multiple times and completely recovered and over exceeded our night! These guys are the definition of world class service! read more

Checked this place out for the first time on a Monday so wasn't very crowded and got seated right away. Olivia our waitress was very, very nice and helped us with the menu. The food that we had wasn't bad but not great. I had the gumbo and it was pretty good but just lukewarm. I asked for a side of cole slaw and couldn't believe $4 for a condiment size helping...2 bites. Others in our group had the lobster roll, the blackened grouper and the blackened shrimp. They all said "4 stars", not bad but not great. The only other thing that was a detriment was that it was very loud considering that it wasn't packed. It was hard to carry on a conversation without hearing the kitchen activity and others pretty much right on top of us. Would have liked to check out the rooftop which is open air and looks nice but it was closed. read more

Pleasantly surprised to see Crabby's here replacing that overpriced mediocre restaurant that was here before. Got the Sunday special New England Seafood Boil. Excellent! And messy! But I thoroughly enjoyed it. Wife got the lobster tail. Huge!!! Enjoyed the happy hour margarita. Very nice. Great service too! Great addition to downtown Palm Harbor! read more

Food was not very good! But for Florida Ok, it was loud and the food didn't look to appealing !

Excellent experience! Celena took great care of us. The four of us came on a Monday and got the red Alaskan king crab, grouper sandwich, and two orders of all you can eat crab legs! We got exactly what we came for and leaving very happy. read more

Food- if it came - was delicious. Service was off. Our party of 7 was served hot meals while the one cold meal waited 10+ minutes for it to arrive. Cocktails/beer took a very long time too- don't come thirsty! This venue' staff cannot handle volume, but is designed to seat hundreds. Don't be fooled. read more

Nice atmosphere and good happy hour special. Unfortunately they do not fry/boil/cook seafood and shellfish separately so DO NOT GO HERE WITH FOOD ALLERGIES. My wife is extremely allergic to crab and fortunately the bar tender told us before our food arrived. We were able to cancel our order and eat somewhere else. read more

I went with husband and had mediocre expectations. The food and service were exceptional. We ordered stone crabs as an appetizer! Unbelievable value for medium size. Then I had the lobster and husband had grouper sandwhich. The lobster was enormous and flavorful! His grouper was delicious. Our server Alycia was stupendous! She was personable , knowledgeable and attentive! Great location and I was IMPRESSED! read more

EXCELLENT! Food, large party 20 Accommodations were wonderful. Our server Steven was wonderful! Best 21st Birthday celebration. Family members all said they would be coming back for sure. Thank you Crabby Bills Palm Harbor and thank you Steven! You Rock! Blessings to all. read more

Food was tasty. Serving portions poor. I had 'thick' slice of cod with seafood topping. The fish was as thin as a pancake and the topping had1baby shrimp in a sauce. Very little vegetable and an ice cream scoop of Mac and cheese. It was tasty but for 28.00 I would expect a better portion. The grouper sandwich also had a very small slice of fish. Service was very good the ambiance was too. Just pretty disappointed with the portion. read more

Took the family here for Mother's Day. Olivia was our server and she was excellent, attentive and very knowledgeable about what items would work best for our picky eaters. The steaks and crabs were incredible and the desserts -FANTASTiC!!! Skip the cheese dip for an app - too oily and the cheese blend needs to be worked on. Will def be back at the PH location- less crowded and more locals. Highly recommend! read more

Graft, fresh seafood. Excellent customer service. I highly recommend the Soft-shell crab sandwich.

I have never had seafood with so much butter, including additional dishes of butter to dip your food in. I have never been to a greasier restaurant. You will slip on the floors. I recommend you stay as far away from this business as possible read more

Jordan was our server. Very pleasant and helpful with the menu and what to expect during our visit. The food was very good but not plentiful. Price was expected for the items ordered. Portion size seemed small for soft shell crab dinner. We will try to get to the bar for what seems to have better prices but only 12 seats! It is a popular restaurant because it is new, but unless they treat their customers right and fair prices, they will fall along the wayside. Good luck! read more

I got fried chicken and it had no flavor and was really dry. My buddy got see food and it had an off flavor to it

Crabby's has been amazing!! Such a great addition to downtown Palm Harbor. Our server the first night we visited was Presley and she was phenomenal!! We had a large party and it was only the 2nd night open, but that gal is a Pro and kept the best attitude and took such great care of us! Been back 4 times since, and the service, food and overall vibe was so awesome! So far I've tried the gumbo, seafood fest, oysters, fish spread, u-peel shrimp and citrus roasted chicken (green beans & taters). My kids had me bring the chocolate cake home and it was HUGE!! Every single thing I've had, I'd get again and again. Big portions! Awesome flavor!! While you wait for your table, you can grab a drink upstairs and listen to live music on the weekends!!! After dinner, catch some more music upstairs, or checkout the rest of downtown Palm Harbor and grab some gelato at Coolside to go with that chocolate cake! read more

Prompt, pleasant service. Big restaurant but it's very loud, hard to converse. Food was kind of a mixed bag. I had salmon which was pretty good. My wife had the clam strips which were small, gritty and chewy. The manager took it off the bill which was good. They just opened so they're probably working out some things out. We'll be back. read more

I'm not sure what happened to the amazingly delicious Crabby Bills I knew growing up in the Clearwater area but am sorry to leave this review for the Palm Harbor location (which the original owners own). Went on a Thursday around 4:30. We sat at the bar on the west side of the building (separate entrance). It was FREEZING in there. To the point that when our food was served it quickly turned cold. We started out ordering the fish dip which tasted like awful tuna fish that even hot sauce couldn't help make it taste better. For entree we ordered the seafood topped Alaskan cod. All I can say is it was tasteless and cold. Zero flavor whatsoever. To make matters worse I double check our bill when we got home and realized we were charged $4.00 for one slice of garlic bread that we never ordered ! Needless to say and very unfortunate we will not return to Crabby Bills in Palm Harbor. read more

Terrible dinning experience. Four of us ate with my wife and I sharing a dinner. They went 0 for 3 on the entrees and 2 for three on the appetizers. Worst dinner was the one pound lobster tail that came out overcooked and was tough not tender. If you are going to charge $60 for a dinner you damn sure better be able to prepare it properly. My sister-in-law just had the barbeque chicken sandwich and it was also over cooked. My wife and I split the blackened grouper dinner which was very disappointing. It had a fishy after taste and was just extremely salty, Their blackening seasoning leaves a lot to be desired. Appetizers were ok...nothing to write home about. My brother ate his lobster so he was not looking for a refund but based on all three dinners being bad I thought they might at least have offered a round of drinks or a couple of deserts but all we got was an apology. All they are ever going to get from me again is this bad review. Not sure about the rest of the cabby bills but the Palm Harbor locations should be renamed to Crappy Bill's. read more

we had a great meal at the Palm Harbor location. our waitress was Alycia was terrific. Very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu.

I am going to start with, I really want Crabby Bills to make it in Downtown Palm Harbor. It is really needed addition. To the manager and or owner: Get your act together. Food: oysters were good but watery as they are stacked with lots of ice that melts and fills the oysters shells. Have you tried your calamari? Rubber breaded calamari that you chew and chew. Really terrible. Your oyster stew is so good! Service: notice we only got oysters, calamari and oyster stew? We came for dinner but stopped at appetizers. It was difficult to get service while sitting at the bar. I did finally got a second beer to drink while my husband worked on his stew. When we paid our bill, we were give a card and were asked to please review including their name as there is a contest for a gift card. My mind went, oh you don't want me to include your name. The restaurant is loud but with better food and service, it could be referred to as lively & fun. read more
