    Shrimp and chicken and curly fries
    Kyle C.

    Okay if you live in Tampa there is a fresher and tastier alternative to your usual trash fast food. Enter Salem's, the food is always super fresh and made to order. The wait from the time you place your order to the time your food comes out is usually about 15 minutes because everything is made to order. So "made to order" is not a knife, issa double edged sword. The gyros here are my absolute favorite gyros. They come with fresh thick slices of tomatoes, perfectly diced onions, and a massive pile of gyro meat. Some one call the cops because Salem may have stolen Arby's curly fry recipe. The curly fries here are a must. It pains me to have to part with an additional $4 to upgrade my regular ole boring fries to tasty and exciting curly fries, but it's worth it. If you come here late night don't be shocked to see a line out the door, it's the only late night spot in town. This place slaps hard and everyone with a brain knows it.

    I have been coming to Salem's aka Gyros for some years now. I'm only writing a review at this moment because that's my business and I was here a few days ago. If you have eaten here on any occasion you already know how the food is - DELICIOUS! The food is always fresh, the price is decent, and the staff are nice. Anytime I'm in the area, stopping here to grab some seafood IS A MUST! Do yourself a favor and experience the goodness that is Salem's.

    House salad with grilled shrimp
    Theresa L.

    I had never visited Salem's and had no clue what to expect, but I can confidently say this is a top notch fast food restaurant! Regardless of misconceptions, Salem's offers a delicious menu that is beyond the typical burger joint. I've discovered that their house salad with shrimp is a reliable and tasty choice. The food tastes fresh and their portions are large. I'm a fan!

    The manager who thought it was funny. Don't worry I won't be back to this restaurant, "EVER!"

    My group and I were craving a seafood boil, so we decided to stop by here. We ordered shrimp,…read morecrawfish, and mussels, and everything tasted amazing. The seafood was fresh, flavorful, and generously sized. Their Mr. and Mrs. Crab special sauce was absolutely incredible, genuinely one of the best seafood boil sauces I've ever tried. I was honestly surprised to see reviews saying the food was bland or lacked seasoning because, as you can probably see from the photos, our platters had plenty of seasoning. The restaurant itself was very clean, nicely decorated with a fun boat theme, and had a welcoming atmosphere. Our waitress was very kind, and the food came out quickly. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a solid seafood boil spot!

    Pros: Great customer…read moreservice by Hailey. She checked on me and explained how to eat the crab. She refilled my drink multiple times.. The inside was nicely decorated with many plastic crabs/nets etc. it was very clean. I got the Mr and Mrs Crab seasoning at medium level. It was pretty flavorful. I rarely eat seafood at American restaurants due to it mostly being bland. This was not the case here. The Corn and the lobster were my favorite parts. Cons: Price . For $46 plus tax/tip, I got 1/2 pound snow crab legs, lobster tail ,2 smaller red potatoes,1 half length corn on the cob, and a drink. I can't really blame them for socioeconomic factors,but it was one of the few times I didn't feel full relative to the amount spent. Potatoes didn't really have much spice/sauce in it and felt "isolated" unlike the seafood/corn. Misc: : I've only eaten crab legs decades ago in Red Lobster. For the amount of "work" needed to break and extract the meat with two tools, it is a let down. 6/10 The Lobster Tail fared better. I could eat it manually by picking at it and attacking like Sabertooth killing a helpless Morlock in the tunnels. 8/10 For budget conscious, I'd probably just get 1 pound of shrimp and some corncobs for like $26. Overall: If you grew up eating crab/lobster in New England or other areas and are accustomed to it , this is a nice place to visit. For me it is worth going occasionally and with a different "loadout" of items.

The crabs were noticeably smaller than on previous visits, and my shrimp order arrived with the heads still on -- something I've never received here before. Our drinks sat empty for over eight minutes with no refills, even though the entire staff was gathered at the register talking among themselves instead of tending to guests. The food was still tasty, as always, but the service tonight earns a solid F. The manager was seated behind the counter and made no effort to address the lack of attention from her team. The manager remained behind the counter the entire time and never came over to apologize or acknowledge the inconvenience. Staff and service are often a reflection of leadership--or the lack thereof--and tonight made that painfully clear. I even attempted to refill my own drink because it was clear no one intended to check on us. I voiced my concerns before leaving, but this experience was disappointing enough that it may be a while before we return. The previous staff was far more attentive and consistently delivered excellent customer service. Management -- do better!

We got there at 12:30 and it was empty, but quite a few people came in for pick-up orders. The place was clean and while I didn't use the restrooms, my boss did and everything was in order. They have the entire menu above the counter, but also provide a paper m The menu is just what the name suggests: seafood and chicken, although they do have a burger and a Philly steak sandwich on the menu. I ordered the #10 Oysters & Shrimp. The man taking our orders asked if I wanted them fried regular or crispy. First time anyone has asked me that. I ordered crispy, with fries and hushpuppies. They serve everything in styrofoam to-go containers and while the place is not fancy, the food was great! My oysters were yummy and the shrimp were well seasoned. Fries were good and the hushpuppies were very good. I only ate half of my meal and took the rest home for dinner. My boss ordered the #6 fish (tilapia) and he really enjoyed it. So I ordered takeout for hubby and dad (no cooking!). They had a few lunch specials and hubby got the basa fried fish and fries combo, while I ordered a #7 fish & shrimp for dad. I thought the prices were very reasonable for the amount of food that was served. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other combos.

After searching for fresh seafood in the retail/wholesale category on the Internet this little gem came up. The place was a classic hole in the wall find. When I got to the plaza, didn't see the name of the market so I asked around and found out it was around back of the building. I walked in one of the first things that I noticed was the place was neat, and I didn't notice that classic "seafood smell " we all know about. The two owners were very gracious and showed me around. I called prior to coming there and ask them for fresh whole grouper, snapper and lobster tails. Upon arriving, the owners proceeded to open up freezer cabinets and showed me an abundance of snapper and grouper varieties in the whole fish category. Looking at the eyes of the fish, you could tell they were super fresh, just the way us seafood buyers like them. I did have them fillet, scale, and butterfly some of my fish while I was there. I also purchased pre- frozen lobster tails had them the next night for dinner absolutely So tasty.. Here is my pro tip of the day : The afternoon I was there, I saw the sign they had a GROUPER FISH SANDWICH with fries and a drink for $10. (The only thing I'm missing is a picture). You cannot get fresh grouper w/ lettuce, tomato, and onion (on a bun toasted) with fries and drink for $10 ANYWHERE I KNOW OF (ask them for a bit of the homemade spicy hot sauce) tell them Jeff P. sent you "thank me later".
