    Calamari appetizer
    Allen I.

    If you want great food come to Crabby Bill's. This place has great food. The atmosphere was pretty typical of a seafood place and service was good. We had a couple no -seafood people in our group and our waitress was patient. The calamari was cooked to perfections and the crab strips were tender and so good as well. A friend of mine got the seafood boil which she could not finish so I helped her clean her plate lol. The seafood boil was absolutely wonderful. Sausage had the right amount of spice, shrimp were flavorful without being doused in salt, and the potatoes/peppers/corn had all the right flavors. Especially when dipped in their sauce on the side.

    We received a warm, friendly greeting and were seated right away without any wait. Our server, Kyle, was polite, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The atmosphere had a relaxed, seaside grill vibe that really added to the experience. I ordered the Alligator Tail and Fried Soft Shell Crab, and both were very good. My girlfriend ordered the Blackened Mahi Mahi, which was slightly dry but still enjoyable. Overall, it was a very nice experience. While the food was average, the service and the view truly stood out. Would I go back? Definitely. Recommended.

    You go for the view of the Gulf and then opportunities to sit upstairs on the open patio or inside the expansive dining rooms. It's a big seafood menu with minimal choices for those not enamored with seafood. The union rings were fresh and hot almost perfect. The fish sand which, fried shrimp and fried oysters were all spot on. The 1lb crab leg meal was good but the service of them was a little lacking. Had to ask for the items always provided with crab legs, like cracker, small fork, and a side plate or bowl for the shells. The side green beans and coleslaw were good but a trade off which one you'd eat cold while attending to the other items in the plate.

    Bear in mind; I'm an Angeleno, born and raised in Los Angeles, where you ski in the morning and surf in the afternoon. So when my lady and I explored the width and breadth of St. Petersburg, FL, searching for the beaches Florida is famous for, we ended up in the affably named St. Pete Beach, what can best be described as "The 1970's Vegas Strip". 20 minutes up and down the strip, no parking... until we chanced upon Crabby Bill's St. Pete's Beach... lured by $4 beers and a parking spot, we moseyed on in and up to the bar. That's where we, and you will as well when you try out the best of the funnest bars and restaurants and West St. Petersburg, met Angela, the real reason you make drive out here. Whatever you order (I got the Pineapple Margarita in a pineapple mason jar), you won't spend a better hour of your life than drinking with your new best friend in a bar that feels like home.

    Happy hour

    Great place for drinks and seafood. Also being on the beach doesn't hurt! I like the crab here. It's always fresh. The service is great and there are great seats upstairs and by the window looking at the beach!

    Stopped by Crabby Bill's while I was in St. Pete for a conference, and it turned out to be a great choice. I ordered the seafood boil and it was loaded with shrimp, crab, corn, potatoes, and onions, all seasoned really well. Everything came out hot and flavorful, and the drawn butter and lemon on the side made it even better. The shrimp were big and fresh, and the crab was easy to crack and full of meat. The portion was generous and the whole meal felt like a proper Florida seafood experience. The laid-back beach atmosphere made it a great place to unwind after a long day of conference sessions. If you're visiting St. Pete Beach and want good seafood with a relaxed coastal vibe, this place is definitely worth stopping by.

    This would be my third time going to Saint Pete's Beach and we made it mandatory that we at least go to dinner here once. We not only went once we went twice. That's how awesome it is. The ambience is great. The servers are friendly. The king crab is delicious. The prices for the quality of the food are definitely reasonable. The sunset from either the deck or inside the restaurant is breathtaking. I will always make sure to frequent here anytime, I'm in Saint Pete's. This place is definitely a GEM WORTH TRYING ‼‼‼

    Visited during my bday weekend. We loved the food here. It was really good, the staff were awesome and their Caribbean playlist was on point !! If the weather is nice, go upstairs and sit outside on the deck or at the bar. We started with fried pickles and shared fried shrimp and fries with coleslaw. We were waiting to Check into the resort and this was the perfect snack so we could get the weekend started. I don't remember the drinks being strong but I had 1 daiquiri.

    Fish tacos, and fries

    Such a great spot for a casual beachy lunch. We sat outside, had a few cocktails, and just enjoyed the Florida weather and music. The food was amazing -- fresh, flavorful, and generous portions. Service was friendly and quick, and the whole atmosphere just has that "you're on vacation" feeling even if you're local. It's one of those places that reminds you why living in Florida is such a blessing -- eat, sip, and then walk straight over to the water after. Definitely somewhere I'd come back to for the views + vibes alone, with great food being the bonus.

    Ashley was our great server. Had the clam chowder and peel shrimp was excellent! Will come by couple times every year.

    Service was good great place for a sunset pic. Food was outstanding! Busy place get there early.

    Went this past Friday for birthday celebration. Decided on the rooftop and was not disappointed. Beautiful sunset over the gulf, cold beer & great food! Our server Selena was awesome - she became part of our group and will be back to see her! Highly recommend!

    Stopped in for a late afternoon meal after a day at the beach. Was craving crab legs and this place did not disappoint. The crab was delicious! My husband also really enjoyed his fish tacos. The place is super casual, so a perfect after beach day spot. Service was good, we got drinks right away and the food was not far behind, which was perfect since we were hungry. Will definitely stop in again after another future beach day.

The food? Forget about it. Every bite tastes like family Sunday -- sandwiches stacked sky-high, prosciutto that melts like butter, and mozzarella so fresh it might've been made five minutes before I walked in. This isn't "inspired by Brooklyn" -- this is Brooklyn. And the service? That's where they really shine. The staff here treat you like you've been coming in for years -- warm smiles, real conversation, and that old-school hospitality that's hard to find these days. You can feel the pride in everything they do, from the way they wrap your order to the way they say "Have a good one, hon." The vibe is easy, authentic, and full of heart -- the kind of place that makes you linger a little longer, just because it feels like home.
