Checked this spot out and it was fantastic! Plenty of parking since it's in a strip mall. I ordered the Causeway Crunch roll and the Rockstar roll. The Causeway Crunch had krab mix, shrimp, cream cheese cooked tempura style. It is topped with krab Rangoon melt, spicy mayo, and sweet chili. The Rockstar roll is lobster meat, cream cheese, and asparagus. It is topped with Wagyu, seared to order. It is finished with crispy leeks and shallots, seahorse aioli, scallions, and eel sauce. I swapped the asparagus out for avocado. For dessert we ordered the strawberry cheesecake tempura roll. Very interesting and good! Both were phenomenal! Everything was flavorful and fresh. Loved the menu and options. Service was fantastic! Only issue was the lack of seating options. There was the sushi bar, with plenty of chairs. But there were only I think 3 high top tables with no back to the chairs. The high top tables are unfortunately not friendly for those who certain disabilities. Only suggestion is to add more seating options and chairs with backs. read more

An absolute hidden gem!! We have been on the search for the best sushi in Palm Harbor and we have found it at Seawhip. This is such a quaint and intimate spot, with the most personable and pleasant service. We truly felt like we were dining in someone's home in the way the staff got to know us. Even when they were busy, they took the time to talk us through the menu. The sushi itself was phenomenal. All rolls were very fresh and artisanal, there was no way to pick a favorite. Highly recommend to anyone in the area! read more

Great vibes! And very clean!!! All of the STAFF have a great relationship with each other which is awesome to not have to hear the drama while at the bar. The COLORS are soft sea green/blue that puts you in the dining mood for a great sushi experience. The MUSIC is a soft house background music style that suits all ages. ---Style of Music is very important to me while I'm out. BEFORE YOU GO: Familiarize yourself with the How to Order in 4 STEPS. And be ready to be your own creative sushi chef while designing your roll. PORTIONS: ARE GENEROUS! See the seaweed salad in the pic? That is AFTER it was already enjoyed before the sushi arrived. WHY THE NAME 'SEAWHIP'? Yup, we asked. There is a coral that moves like a skilled ballet dancer along the sand under the sea. It is known as the seawhip coral. BEST NEWS! Seawhip Sushi Bar IS local and SUPPORTS local causes. So - go support them! Tell Jennifer that JJ sent ya. read more

Best sushi around. It's common to go to a sushi place and the rolls are a big mushy mess of the same stuff slathered in spicy mayo and eel sauce. The ingredients here are quality and recipes are clearly thought out. They have truly unique rolls and I haven't had one I don't like. Highly recommend! read more

Excellent service and even better food. Everything was fresh and delicious. We can't wait to be back! read more

I've been searching for a new sushi spot ever since Aki sushi in Oldsmar closed. I finally found it! The sushi was fresh and delicious made to order by the owner/sushi chef. The service was excellent and we enjoyed sitting at the bar watching the fish tank. We ordered 4 rolls-a yachtsman a honeymoon and 2 "make your own". It was hard to choose, which was our favorite because everything was fresh and delicious. We can't wait to go back! read more

This cute little gem was tucked away within the plaza closest to honeymoon island. My 2 friends and I decided to try it out for "girls night" due to the great reviews. When you walk in there's maybe 20 seats with the centerpiece of the restaurant being a large bar that showcased the amazing sushi chef and decent sized aquarium in the background. We sat down at the bar and were greeted immediately by the server. We told her it was our first time here. She suggested the honeymoon roll, which my friend ordered and looked amazing!!! Everything was very fresh and tasty. We even ordered dessert which consisted of a strawberry cheesecake roll which was AMAZING. They also have a beer/sake menu. It wasn't extensive but it got the job done. Based on the service alone I would come back. We went on a Monday and the place filled up very quick, our server was fabulous and personal. I can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu. read more

Best sushi I have found in Pinellas. The rolls were outstanding , highly recommend the slammin salmon and the blue jay roll. You can also order Omakase for a chef experience. The place is small and seats are limited. We were fortunate enough to have a high top, I will definitely be back and make reservations. Their Sushi is phenomenal. read more

My gf and I were staying at a hotel right next door and love sushi and saw this place had good reviews so we decided to try it. We got 3 rolls. 1 was the slammin salmon definitely our favorite. I got the caladesi colada the flavors were spot on especially with the chutney. The last roll we made our own. We also had the option to make add chips it was the "mo tuna" option. I like that they had that option as well. Overall the meat to rice ratio was good. This place could sneak in to my top 5 places for sushi. Good vibes and good services as well. read more

Seawhip has been open a mere 7 weeks, but you would never know it! Staff is friendly, efficient and really makes you feel welcome. Cute, small sushi bar with a chill vibe. Pretty large fish tank sits behind the chef at work and we had fun watching the starfish do its starfish thing. Food is fresh and a great combination of flavors that meld together really well. Hubby and I started with Miso soup, a small edamame and an order of the Crispy Spring rolls. We then ordered the Yachtsman, the Honeymoon and the Rockstar rolls. The restaurant also offers you the option of building your own roll, which we will definitely try the next time. But for our first time we wanted to try the chefs creation. We loved sitting at the bar and watching chef Max at work and the torch crisping the waygu beef is definitely fun! Love that's it a nice casual place and can see it getting busy as beach goers leave Honeymoon and Caladesi Islands. This place is a repeat for sure! read more

So happy to finally have a sushi place on this side of town! We walked in and were immediately greeted by every staff member. Everything is freshly renovated and clean. The menu has some great options on it. I highly recommend the edamame with the garlic and ginger sauce for an appetizer. We sat at the bar so we got to see the sushi chef make our rolls right in front of us, which was pretty cool to watch. The rolls were both delicious, and you could tell they use fresh ingredients. I'd put this up against any other sushi place in Dunedin in terms of quality and taste. Very good, and reasonably priced. We'll be back soon! read more

best. sushi. ever. period. My husband and I get sushi all the time (like literally every week -- it's ridiculous). Sea Whip is by far the best sushi we've ever had, anywhere. If you go, get the Slammin Salmon. The quality is phenomenal. Presentation is top tier. Roll size is perfect. Service is always great. Literally cannot go wrong. read more

So fresh and delicious. Getting sushi can be iffy sometimes. This place is the perfect nook for the freshest sushi I have ever had!

Seawhip Sushi Bar - Tuna Cowboy - Sushi Bars Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

Without a doubt the BEST sushi around!!! This was our first time and it will not be the last! And thankfully we are less than 2 miles away. We had the Volcano Causeway Crunch with Tuna and the tempura strawberry cheesecake. We usually each have a roll we like better this time we couldn't decide. There was a slight mix up in what was delivered and before I could call them, Zach was calling us to handle the issue! Now THAT is Service! I can't speak to the ambiance other to say next time we will go into the restaurant. Great place highly recommend!! read more

We had a fantastic experience here on a cool and sunny weekend afternoon in January, sitting at the sushi bar, talking with the friendly owner, and eating some of the freshest, tastiest sushi around. We loved it! read more

You know it's going to be good when you notice there's lots of locals visiting! The owners seemed to know everyone walking in which made for an inviting atmosphere. This was some of the best sushi I've had while in Florida and I thought it was really unique that you could make your own roll. read more

Food is amazing and delicious. Great selection and server, Jennifer, did a great job describing options and answering questions. She was very attentive. Jake did a wonderful job on the food and the presentation was excellent. This will be one of our go to places. read more

This is a pretty new place (6 months-ish) and it is FANTASTIC! Bella, (the server) took the time to explain their menu and made some great recommendations! The chef took the time to make a flower out of my sushi roll which doesn't happen often enough, anymore. So, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you RUN to Seawhip Sushi Bar!!! read more

We are snow birds that live around the corner from Sea Whip. Neighbors had said that a fellow neighbor was the owner (definitely support local!) and it was good. Well that sounds like a winning combination, except my partner doesn't like sushi (boo). I finally made it here, when he was away on business, and yes Seawhip is awesome. Don't let the more spartan digs scare you away. Yes decorating could be better, but we've just been through hurricanes and half the businesses in Causeway Plaza are gonezo. Fish is good, and I really enjoyed the sashimi the most, but there are definitely many roll choices that could be customized to one's heart content. One knock is that my partner's son was not a fan of the saki as he cited it as non premium. I think with time and more business, Seawhip will have more premium offerings and more extensive menu offerings like non sushi choices (another knock against the place). Kudos to the friend service from Zach and the entire staff. read more

Amazing sushi spot and super friendly staff! We came in for dinner and sat at the bar. All of the staff were very helpful and friendly. Our food was delicious and the prices were very fair. Will definitely be back. read more

INCREDIBLE across the board, from the appetizers and wine to the sushi, overall "vibe" and service! They have some unique specialty rolls, and the options to customize sushi rolls aren't something I've seen before! Can't wait to go back... regularly! It gets busy real fast, so on weekends especially, recommend getting there before 530! read more

This place was good, but the menu is very small. It does not look like an actually restaurant inside, more of like a sub shop or an ice cream shop. Do not come here if you are looking to stay while or if you want something more intimate read more

Okay Dunedin is our jam and the Seawhip is the go to for sushi, sashimi and inspired rolls. Phenomenal sushi; honestly the staff including the sushi chefs are lights out. We were lucky enough to meet the owner and should soon be enjoying some great uni but I digress the food rocks, the drinks and apps are traditional and even better. Cannot wait to go again. read more

We tried Seawhip Sushi tonite for the first time. We sat at the bar. The ambiance was nice. We were greeted immediately and there seemed to be lots of servers and staff available for the size of the place. The service was excellent! We asked Zach, who happens to be the owner for his recommendations. We ordered everything he recommended. Everything was so fresh, beautifully plated and oh my word, delicious!!! I was amazed how quickly we were served. Everything looked so beautiful and tasted even better! We will definitely be back! So happy to have this so close to home! read more

Attempted to eat here but it is extremely small, it was 7:30pm on a Monday and with a small bar and 2 tables it was full and slightly claustrophobic. There also isn't anywhere to wait. I wanted to give others a heads up, probably better to order out. Menu looked good, was definitely disappointed. read more
