Food was excellent the lobster bisque was so great! We were mistaken about what time they closed and the service was really good even though we came in very close to closing time(we apologized repeatedly) The only problem was that the oysters had a lot of shell in them and my husband chipped his tooth and I also got a piece and hurt my tooth read more

We were sat immediately Service was great Food was delicious Their signature drinks were way too sweet so I let the ice melt a little before drinking it but overall great spot read more

Anna Maria Oyster Bar - Pier - Menu - Seafood Near Me - Bradenton Beach, Florida

Came for Father's Day. Fun restaurant with a fantastic view and a cute fishing pier out the back. Maria was our server and she was fantastic, handled multiple tables so well and made time to check-in on us a few times. This place is booked and busy but they turn over tables pretty quickly. We killed the 30minute wait time by hanging out on the swinging bench on the pier and taking photos of all the birds. The fans outside were amazing, didn't feel like it was 95 outside at all. Flies here and there but that's florida. Father's Day special was bogo drinks, we ordered two mocktails that were fantastic. Definitely on the sweet side, almost like sipping dessert. Tropical, icey, bubbly dessert. Calamari was DELICIOUS. My parents never really order calamari but they loved how crunchy the breading was while the meat still being tender. Some food items were very salty: lobster bisque and scallops with the captain's combo. Scallops were cooked very well, just salty. Gulf Grouper was a small amount of fish on a very large plate, it was so delicious though. Fish and chips was good but I have had better, the fish was on the thinner side and wasn't thick enough to flake apart. Loved the Anna Maria Oyster bar hot sauces. Dad's favorite was the habanero and mine was the serrano. They sell individual bottles of these as well. For a party of 3 with 1 app, 3 entrees (some up charges for sides), bogo mocktails, and 20% tip...we spent around $160 for the meal. We concluded it was worth it for the fresh seafood, view, and vibes. Especially if it's for an occasion. Good for dates, families, friends. Amazing service. read more

Had a fantastic meal at Anna Maria Oyster Bar! The service was friendly, attentive, and prompt, making for a great dining experience from the moment we arrived. For appetizers, enjoyed two dozen oysters--both the traditional and chimichurri styles. The oysters were incredibly fresh, plump, and among the tastiest we've had. The chimichurri preparation really enhanced the flavor of the oyster. The other appetizer, calamari was crispy, tender, and cooked just right. The fish tacos were perfectly seasoned and delicious, while the clam chowder was loaded with clams and pleasantly not overly salty. To top it all off, the Maria Sauvignon Blanc was light, crisp, and refreshing. I can appreciate why their Key Lime Tart waa voted best!! The Key Lime Tart was outstanding!! Perfectly balancied sweet and tart flavors with a creamy filling. A great way to finish our meal!! Excellent food, great service, and a scenic view of the pier and water made for a relaxing dining atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!! read more

Family vacay, Hadn't been to AMOB in several years. Our wait staff was a bit preoccupied with other things, she didnt ask if we would like to order a starter, took a while just getting us our waters and taking our order we had to repeat several things. When it was time for the check she took a literal 10 minutes to get it to us and another 10 minutes to bring my change. Everyone said their food was good, the blackened cobia was a good change from grouper or mahi that you find in most places on the island. We were seated out back it was breezy but sun was in half our party's faces. read more

Stopped by for lunch on a Monday. Place still had a pretty good crowd. Great atmosphere, overlooking the water. Very laid-back, low-key vibe to it. Seafood Cobb salad was really good with very fresh ingredients. Just right for a warm Florida Day. Service at the bar was very friendly and attentive. Would definitely go back if I am in the area again. read more

Location and vibes - check! Food and service - good, but not great. I'll be honest, we were a big group and probably a little difficult to manage. Our server was pleasant and had a good demeanor. There were some slips and some items ordered that never arrived or, in one case, given to another table. They made up for the lapses quickly and pleasantly. Food was good. I had the fish dip and the blackened grouper sandwich. Both tasty. I found the grouper sandwich (MP) a bit pricey at $38. The place itself is really nice and located right on the pier. The Pier Cheer shack is also a nice touch. Recommend. read more

Great spot for sunset. Went july 4th for dinner. Parking is nonexistent. There are a few free spots on the pier, but plan on paying (15$ per hour) and walking. We sat outside of. The deck. Saw dolphins swimming. Our server was great despite being busy. Ordered shrimp ceviche app, fish tacos, blackend grouper sandwich and grandma Georgia's Chipotle oysters. All were amazing. Service times we as expected with the crowd. Definitely try this place. read more

We had a group of 6 coming from the beach so I joined the waitlist to help with the wait. 73 year old in the party that has difficulty walking so we tried compensating for that with the waitlist. Attached picture shows we were first in line. Hostess tells us that they don't accept online waitlists. They continually said that was the Cortez location even though I showed the location on my phone was correct. After that they double down and ask if I used my number at which point I show the confirmation on my phone. 45 minutes later we are seated. Food is great here just please take the waitlist option off of yelp. read more

We went at 3pm, happy hour began then. Ordered a couple margaritas which were delicious. For our early dinner we had grouper bites, yum, and shrimp. They serve both orders on a metal trays covered with paper. Shrimp were plentiful, about 14 mouthful size shrimp. My partner said I take to large a bites though. But plenty of food for me. She had the grouper bites. They serve 8 oz rather than by number so no matter what you have with grouper you're going to get the same 8 oz. Our server was terrific, very helpful, energetic, knowledgeable. When we asked a question she didn't know the answer to she said so, then explained she'd ask someone who might. We got the answer in no time. They have inside and outside dinning. Casual come as you are wear. read more

On the pier. Perfect for coming off the water and grabbing a bite to eat. Love a table by the window so you can watch dolphins swimming by. Our server was friendly and did a good job with keeping our drinks full. I ordered the grouper fish and chips with a side of cheese grits. Great flavor, not greasy and just the right amount of breading. Definitely will come back the next time we are on the water and need a bite to eat. read more

The food was pretty good. The fact that kids eat super sheep is a plus. I would avoid eating outside. There are so many pigeons. A pigeon flew to my wife' beer and some kind of bird pooped on our table. Nasty. read more

The Oyster Bar on the Pier is a solid spot to get some quick food while you're visiting downtown Anna Maria. Beware, parking can be tricky, but once you find somewhere, you can wander around a bit. The space is pretty big and they have an awesome outdoor patio that was great on a cool summer night. The food is pretty standard beach town fare and a smidge expensive, but not much different than the other restaurants nearby. The grouper was pretty good, but I would skip the potatoes as a side - they weren't worth it; no seasoning or anything of interest. While it might not be my favorite spot in town, it was good for an easy dinner. read more

The people here are incredibly friendly and easy going. The view is amazing and it just feels like good vibes all over. The traditional oysters were enjoyable. The fish and chips was also good, I had hush puppies for the first time and I quite enjoyed them although I have nothing to compare them to. The seafood Cobb salad was what it promised to be, fresh and healthy. read more

There was plenty of seating indoors and outdoors - we sat outside and enjoyed the weather. The hostess seemed to be annoyed, as evidenced by her short and rude responses to a lot of customers. Our waiter was nice, though it was apparent he was very busy as he had tables inside and outside. All of the food, with the exception of the kaboom shrimp (which was the star of the show), came out lukewarm which was really disappointing. I sent the fries back because they weren't fresh, and just settled with the rest of the lukewarm food. The fish was battered to perfection, but the actual meat was dry and overcooked. Fish tacos and oysters were said to be good, though I didn't have the tacos. The Rockefeller oysters were fresh but lacking in seasoning. The waiter told us many of their usual items were unavailable as this location is still recovering from the hurricane. read more

Outstanding service, food and views!! We ate here 3 nights in a row! Love this place. You can sit inside, outside under the awning or on the side of the restaurant. Great Happy hour and specials. Oysters are out of the world. One night we had 6 and the next night we got 12. I wish they had 8 on the menu. You can watch the boats on the water, walk down the pier to see the fishing or take the boat ferry. We walked but noticed there is no much parking. I would park on the beach and walk down. read more

AMOB is a well known spot on the island. We docked our boat out front and walked in. Can't beat the views, nice mist fans kept us cool. Service was so attentive and welcoming. I had the seafood Cobb salad, delicious and huge. I couldn't finish it. Hubby helped. He had the shrimp and grits, smaller bowl but tasty. Prices I would say are on the high side. We will return. read more

First time visiting Anna Maria Island, and I was excited to try this place out! Overall, it was a great experience. The oysters were fantastic, a must-try! I wasn't impressed with the grouper bites; they were a bit too heavy on the breading and light on the actual grouper, so I'd probably skip those next time. The service was great. What I ordered: - GROUPER BITES: Crispy, golden-brown bites of fresh grouper, served with our zesty Kaboom sauce for the perfect kick - SMOKED FISH DIP: Served with tortilla chips, pickled red onion and jalapeño. - RAW TRADITIONAL OUSTER: iced on the half-shell with horseradish and cocktail - RAW CHIMICHURRI OYSTER: topped with chimichurri and pickled red onion - ROASTED TEQUILA LIME margaritas + oysters = AMOB - ROASTEDa GRANDMA GEORGIE'S CHIPOTLE read more

We spent the day at the beach and took a mid day break at the oyster bar. It was walking distance and they offer inside and outside seating. They have happy hour every day from 3-6pm. The raw oysters at $1.99 during happy hour so we got the traditional and chimichurri raw oysters. We also got a dozen of the roasted oysters in tequila lime, Grandma Georgie's, garlic Parmesan and oysters rock. Honestly the only one we wouldn't order again is the oysters rock. The burgers were a big hit for our preggo friends. Nice thick juicy patty cooked perfectly. My daughter also loved the Mac n cheese. Our server was friendly but had to be asked for water several times and she missed that some of us were missing food. read more

We frequent this specific Anna Maria Oyster Bar several times/year. We ordered the Conch Fritters as an appetizer. They were excellent - quality and quantity. We've had conch fritters throughout the Caribbean and these are top 3 in flavor and texture! I ordered the Shrimp and Grits. Very good to excellent in freshness and flavor. My wife had the AMOB tacos. Also excellent and fresh. The homemade chips and slaw were excellent as well. Drinks were quick and cold. The waitress was very good. Prompt and courteous. AMOB Never disappoints! read more

The service was amazing!! The food and drink were just not worth it. We ordered a burger that came out raw. They did take it back and cooked another but still. Ceviche was pretty tasty but serving was very small. Ideal for 1 person. Then we had left over chips. Also ordered grilled scallops that were cool in the center. My Freind ate them anyway because he was starving. Drinks were so/so. Ordered the rum runner and a blue drink. The rum runner was ok. More fruit juice than alcohol. The blue drink had a weird consistency and funky taste that I couldn't even drink. I recommend any other restaurant than this. read more
