So when I found myself six months later back in Johns Pass looking at the same stupid pirate ship, I thought, I bet Lauren and Kent recommend a good place within walking distance since they know the area. They were completely worthless for any kind of recommendation. I asked them about this place and they had never been or even knew its name. All they could tell me about with some bar to go visit around the corner. Clearly they have their priorities. Had the fried clams and some shrimp. They were good. It's pretty hard to screw up fried stuff.... I think I should've ordered one of the sandwiches, they looked much better. Service was great. Kept my drink refilled and we were very attentive.

Once you're in, you're greeted by a genuinely friendly staff and some of the freshest seafood you'll find in the area -- brought straight down from Maine. The fried oysters were perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and pairing them with a Blonde Crush beer was a fantastic choice. Great food, great people, and a laid‑back atmosphere that makes you want to come back. Highly recommend.

I'm really at a loss for words. So I'll just tell you about the Greek Salad with tuna salad…read more A square plate ( always hard to eat from) with old soggy greens, mealy tomato's, no dressing and cow patty of the nastiest tuna salad, perhaps better used for mortar. After dropping the plates out server disappeared for 30 minutes. When she finally returned and saw the uneaten food she quickly apologized for not checking on us and removed the items from our bill. What this tells me is no one is paying attention in the kitchen. Had they, they never would have served this garbage. Hey Owner, how you do anything is how you do everything. I know what you're doing. Shameful Oh, remember my rule about the filth they show you isn't half as bad as what you don't see. Check out the rear of the restaurant. Out in the open for all to see. Again shameful

Wow, I'm o-fish-ally hooked!…read more My husband and I heard great things about Snapper's from a friend who lives nearby, so we decided to check it out for dinner one night. They quoted us a short wait and encouraged us to wait by the outside bar, just around the corner from the main entrance. We headed there and I got a glass of malbec while we waited. Our buzzer went off maybe 15 minutes later and we were promptly seated on the patio. We ordered the following: Blue tuna Neptune's Platter Stuffed Gulf Grouper We were blown away by the food. They were fresh and flavorful, and the portions were hearty. We left full and very satisfied! Service was excellent throughout. We will definitely be back next time I'm in Florida. Highly recommend checking out Snapper's!

This has become one of my go to lunch spots. I've been back several times and the food holds up…read moreconsistently every visit, and every friend I've brought along says the same thing. The waterfront setting adds a lot to the experience, with nice views over the inlet. There used to be a dock where you could pull your boat right up, but it didn't survive the hurricane. Drinks are strong and the selection is solid. On the food side, the shrimp and grits is a standout, and the coconut curry mussels with saffron sauce might be the best thing on the menu. The smoked fish spread is locally made and genuinely good, the fish tacos were a hit at the table, and the crab cakes are done properly with real lump crab meat, not filler. Bathrooms are clean and service comes with genuine warmth. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and handled our large table well without missing a beat. This is a place I'll keep coming back to.

When I asked about their gluten-free precautions, our server reassured me that the chefs take it very seriously and are very careful when preparing gluten-free meals. We ordered the shrimp ceviche and seared ahi tuna for appetizers, and both were delicious! For our meals, I had Doc's paella, my daughter had the mahi-mahi with jasmine rice and vegetables, my son had the panko shrimp with fries, and my husband had the macadamia nut-crusted grouper with vegetables and rice. Everything came out fairly quickly and tasted good. Everyone in our party liked their food except my daughter she said her fish had zero seasoning or flavor, the service was great, and I really appreciated the care they took with gluten-free precautions.

So nice we had to visit TWICE…read more The coconut crusted mahi mahi was a highlight. It was soft and fully coated with obviously real coconut - not sugared or overly sweet. It was a huge fillet, which makes up for having some smaller sides. I'll let you in on a little secret, I only eat fish when it's locally caught and fresh and this was worth it 100%. The house salad with Pima colada dressing has me imagining how to make this dressing at home. Sweet and creamy and easily coating every leaf. The bread at the start of the meal for a disproportionate amount of attention from my family. It was served hot, with garlic and maybe other seasonings across the top, and generous sides of butter. Our initial server, Kyle, kept the bread flowing for us until the meal came and it was fantastic. We gave the potato skins a try, and they were delicious! My family ironically isn't huge conch / shelled fish eaters so the rest of the appetizers didn't suit us much and this was a lil Midwest taste while on vacation. We returned to try the jalapeño crusted grouper and were again very satisfied. Totally different than the coconut mahi, it's savory and well flavored but leaves you far from begging for water. The fish is thick and flaky and the sauce was similar to a bang bang sauce to pair it all together. The favorite sides were loaded baked potato and garlic smashed potatoes! I'd say it's a must visit during your trip to Madeira !

We started with the jambalaya as an appetizer, and it was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and the perfect way to kick off the meal. For my entrée, I ordered the blackened shrimp tacos, which were delicious and packed with flavor. My husband had the catch of the day sandwich with fresh snapper, and he really enjoyed it as well. Everything tasted fresh, the portions were generous, and the quality was fantastic. We'll definitely be back the next time we're at the beach. Highly recommend if you're craving fresh seafood in a casual waterfront setting!

Hubby and I came to watch the sun set , then decided to stop in for dinner…read more It has been some years since we have been here. I ordered the shrimp boil, was a little skeptical on ordering it. Hubby ordered the Shrimp Alfredo. I must say my shrimp boil was really good. Well flavored and spicy with Obay spices and scrumptious juicy shrimps. Hubby also enjoyed his meal. The menu items have been reduced, not as many selections since we were last there, but still good selections. We sat at the bar and enjoyed our bartender who reps Dallas for her mom, lol. Great place to come and relax and enjoy good food.

Also got their popular smash burger and was very satisfied being an avid Burger connoisseur if I do say so myself. Grilled and seasoned well with my group comparing it to a Krabby Patty with its pleasant presentation. Lastly, couldn't have asked for better staff! Almost felt like having a meal with old friends with how friendly they all were. Environment was very casual with a seaside shack vibe while being cozy and comfortable.

There's something comforting about a classic, no-frills seafood spot by the water, and Shells…read moreSeafood delivers exactly that. This is the kind of place that feels like it's been around forever, in the best way. Spacious for the area, lively without being chaotic, and backed by attentive service that keeps things moving even when it's busy. The menu is extensive, and then just when you think you've seen it all, there's a specials board tucked away with even more to choose from. If you can time your visit right, Tuesday is the move. They run a buy one pound, get one pound half off deal on snow crab legs, and it's easily one of the best values around. The snow crab legs are fresh and satisfying, and the Dungeness crab holds its own as well. Both pair perfectly with their rich, drawn butter, simple but done right. Portion sizes here are no joke. The shrimp skewers are almost excessive in the best way. Three skewers loaded with roughly eight shrimp each, so you're looking at around two dozen shrimp total, all a solid medium-large size. It's the kind of dish that makes you pause when it hits the table. The shrimp pasta is another standout and clearly a house favorite. It's packed with flavor and easily one of the more memorable dishes on the menu. Good enough that ordering a second one to-go actually makes sense. The clam chowder, though, was the one miss. While it's loaded with plenty of clam meat and has a hearty base, there's a slightly smoky flavor that throws it off. If you're a chowder fan, it might not hit the mark. Probably something to skip next time. As for the crab cakes, they passed a pretty tough test. A Maryland native at the table gave them a strong approval, which says a lot. Pro tip: Get there early, ideally around lunch, if you want to lock in that snow crab deal. It's popular, and you don't want to risk missing out. Overall, this is a reliable, crowd-pleasing seafood spot that leans into big portions, solid execution, and a relaxed coastal vibe. Whether you're a local or just visiting St. Pete Beach, it's an easy recommendation and definitely worth a return trip.
