“I really couldn't pick a favorite. Everything from the crab stuffed avocado to the grouper sandwich was phenomenal. Great atmosphere, great service with Michelle, and very reasonable prices. The view of the sunset was breathtaking right from our table. Thanks for making our anniversary trip so special!“

“What a walk down memory lane this is!!! We haven’t been to Bobby’s Bistro, or its more upscale sister restaurant the Beachcomber in years. Twenty years ago, these two restaurants were the absolute “It” place, the best in Tampa. Amazingly, the decor is exactly the same as 20 years ago but somehow doesn’t look dated at all. The food was fantastic. We met George, our server, who is a bit of a celebrity, and he was super nice and gave me a supersized shot! Glad to give this notable establishment a great review!“

“These donuts are so fresh and delicious, I wanted a real good donut and these are the very best by far.“

“The grouper sandwich is good. 👍 I got the carribean one which is supposed to spicy but it’s not really.

service is friendly. Next door to the Hiatus Hotel. There were plenty of tables around 5:30pm Saturday night.“

“Always perfection. The view and service are too notch. Drinks are delicious and the food is fabulous,“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great place to stop in for lunch or dinner and a cold one !! Super friendly staff located in a private gated community Cove Cay, yet open to the public. Just tell them you’re going to AJ‘s at the gate. Beautiful marina waterfront views“

“The Best steakhouse in Pinellas County! The Staff is great and Food is just Amazing! This place is a staple of the best fine dining in Pinellas! Randi and Jen are the best bartenders around!“

“Im a frequent visitor of the "left coast" beaches. This trip brought me to Clearwater for an afternoon Phils game at BayCare Ball Park....Stopped in Philly Joes before the game. Had a great initial feeling when we walked in when some local firefighters were enjoying their lunch. Always a good sign...Split a cheese steak fried onions and order Fries with the wifey. Had the steak with Joes homemade velvety smooth cheese sauce which was delicious. Also was provided with couple side cups filled with the cheese sauce to dip our fries. Steak was delicious and roll was OK. I'm spoiled living here in the Philly area as far as rolls go. Food was prepared and served by Joe himself who was behind the line. Place was incredibly clean which Joe took an incredible amount of pride in when we spoke to him for a few mins on our way out. Joe is a true NE Philly guy that's putting out a great product in the Clearwater area.“

“Food, live music, and the sunset were the perfect vibes for a dinner date. The crab legs were perfectly sweet and the service was great! Sherlyn was our server, and she was such a delight! I’d definitely come back for the food and vibes!“

“I discovered this place on my way home, and came back to try it out. I ordered a bandeja paisa and passion fruit made with milk, as well as some empanadas and it was amazing! Definitely coming back for more. 🙂“

“The managers both Carlie and Justin were both very accommodating when I called to make a reservation for 20 to celebrate a birthday at the restaurant. Our server Devon did an outstanding job and was absolutely fine regarding our request for multiple checks. The food was simply delicious and the prices were reasonable. They allowed me to bring in a birthday cake and they served it for no extra charge. We were all extremely happy with the service provided and will definitely return!!“

“Zak was an awesome server. food was great..“

“uno de mis lugares favoritos Buen servicio comida muy Rica y todo muy fresco 100% recomendado😋😋😋😋😋“

“My family and I recently had the pleasure of visiting this gem. Great food, staff is very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be returning when we are in the area again.“

“A catch up dinner with friends we have not seen in months. We wanted somewhere quiet so we could talk without shouting. Even when Bijoux is busy the noise level is low. In the low season down here, especially with the cold snap, it was a perfect venue.“

“Enjoyed dinner here on 4/22. Several gluten free options available; our food was great! Our server, Tobias, was outstanding; we really enjoyed him. Seems like the kind of guy a parent would love to have their daughter bring home.“

“We got a party platter for the holidays and it was amazing! Thank you so much“

“We went to Salt Cracker Fish Camp after seeing ample outdoor seating available at 8 pm on Saturday night. There was live music but not too loud we couldn’t hear each other.
Our server had red hair he looked like Knuckles (Alex maybe?) he was CHARISMATIC AS HELLLL so funny interacted with all guests and got our orders in quick.

But the best part- I ordered the Cajun Mac and Cheese and since THAT NIGHT I have not stopped thinking about it.
The perfect base of Mac and cheese with seasonings, sausage peppers… GOOD LORD! I was thinking about that Cajun Mac and Cheese for weeks after.“

“Great food , great attention , and great intentions . I cannot complain about this spot !“

“This restaurant is amazing. The food was soooo good. It’s like we found a hidden gem. The atmosphere is the coolest, like a relaxed fine dining experience looking over the Gulf. It’s on the 7th floor of the Hiatus, perfect night. These guys are the real deal!“

“Great restaurant. Not like a chain at all. Fantastic staff too!!“

“I’ve driven past this place many times before when I worked out on Clearwater Beach when I lived in Dunedin 10 years ago, well earlier today my husband & I & our daughter was at the light right next to this little spot when we crossed wind with the smell of their smoker & oh my did it smell good….🤤 so I told my husband that we HAD TO GO BACK after we got done getting gas & I tell you what I’m GLAD WE WENT BACK the food DID NOT disappoint…..I will DEFINITELY go back…❣️“

“This is our go-to Chinese takeout place in Clearwater. It reminds me of one of the corner joints I used to frequent when I was a kid in New York City. It’s much better than a lot of of the other local takeout places - they use fresh vegetables and make more from scratch. The prices are very reasonable, given the times. We have a gluten-free person in our household, and the Singapore rice noodles are hit. And there’s plenty of shrimp in the noodles.“

“I would just like to take a moment to acknowledge how great the customer service is here. I order from here often, usually through DoorDash. Well I had issues tonight with my driver, nothing the restaurant did, DoorDash drivers just weren’t so kind or accommodating. The lady I spoke to, I believe she’s the owner but I don’t recall - she went above and beyond for me. The food here is incredible and that’s coming from someone who is very picky with how Chinese food is made. Despite all the issues I had, my food came HOT and delicious as usual. If you are ever in the area, try this place. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Thank you again!“

“Everything was delicious ♥️“

“I don’t usually leave reviews, but this place deserves one. Every time I’ve come here, the staff has been friendly, patient, and incredibly hardworking. You can tell they’re doing their best, even during busy rushes, and they keep a positive attitude while serving everyone as quickly as possible. These employees work far harder than they’re paid for, and it shows in the effort they put into every order and every customer interaction. It’s easy to take that for granted, but they truly deserve recognition. Thank you to the whole team for consistently providing great service, you make coming here a great experience every time.“

“This was definitely one of the best places I visited on my vacation. Food was amazing and the service was more then expected. I would definitely recommend trying it out if you’re in the area.“

“Crabby's Dockside Clearwater was a nice place to have seafood with a casual waterfront feel. The grouper sandwich was flaky and came with fresh toppings, while the fries were hot and crisp. We also had the coconut shrimp, which had a crunchy coating and a slightly sweet dipping sauce. The portions were filling, and the service was friendly. It was fairly busy when we visited, so things moved a little slower than expected, but the food was worth the wait.“

“The new owners have really elevated the food quality! I tried it many years ago and never went back. Today I decided to give it another chance and I’m so glad I did. The fried dumplings are AMAZING! Crispy even when you order takeout. The fried rice and sweet & sour chicken are also great. My son is demanding we go back soon and try more!“

“Great authentic mexican food! We recommend and may be back before we leave!! So Good! Margarita"s!“

“Food was phenomenal. Walked in on a whim just looking to stay cool and grab a quick bite to eat. At initial glance we thought the food was overpriced but we stayed and I’m glad we did. The service was great. We got some drink specials. I ordered the chicken Caesar wrap with blackened chicken. Hands down the best chicken Caesar wrap I’ve ever had. My husband ordered the snapper which was also amazing. The portion sizes were great and justified the price. Would definitely come back and recommend to others.“

“Buena Atención comida agradable todo exquisito recomendado al 💯“
