Fast, fresh, affordable, right next to the beach. Worked well for our family. Drinks are great and cheap.

heather, was a great woman she served us greatly and I loved the food!!! I would definitely come back to this place every time I'm hungry and I love the desert she served us!! 100/100 also great music!! read more

Shoutout to Val for providing wonderful service. We walked in and we're given a choice of eating inside or outside. There is limited seating available in both areas. Our server, Val, brought us a round of waters and menus, and we ordered some appetizers. We started off enjoying the peel & eat shrimp and coconut shrimp appetizers. Both were delicious. The peel and eat were large "reds" and coconut shrimp was nicely breaded, and crispy. For our entrées, we enjoyed two portions of grouper. Both were prepared with Cajun seasoning, which was very light and flavorful. We enjoyed steamed broccoli with each entrée. Parking is available out front as well as in front of the Paris café read more

We only ate here bc of proximity to coming right off the beach. The food is bland. The grouper grilled shrimp and oyster. Bland. They had a nice side salad and broccoli and corn which made it healthy at least. The service. Oh my. Linda. She is not friendly. I tried to order drinks and apps and she pushed getting dinner. She was rushing me that I almost forgot to order the bland oysters and gross BBQ barely cooked bacon wrapped scallops. When I tried to back up to order the apps. She literally yelled. Are you not going to order your kids entrees? Like accusing me of child abuse. The table next to us looked up. Then when I tried to order my son's dish w sides. She kept insisting / yelling w wide eyes. It only comes w fries. And I explained I'm not ordering the basket of shrimp. I'm ordering the entree. When she finally listened. She apologized and realized how rude she was coming across. Probably bc both my husband and kids as well as the other table had awkward shocked looks on our faces. She was much more pleasant after that. I tried not to take offense. Maybe the fan was distracting her from listening as it was blowing us out of the restaurant. The fan was on so high w the AC that everyone was freezing bc we came from the beach w wet bathing suits under our clothes. The kids kept going outside to warm up while we dove for our napkins and other items that flew off the table every min from the hurricane winds. I mean fan. We asked if they could turn it down or off and they said the other table wouldn't approve which was funny bc their child was wearing a hoodie and had to also go outside to warm up complaining loudly he didn't want to eat his chicken. He was too cold. Clearly they would have not wanted that fam off. They also are child abusers like us. I'm leaving detailed of a review bc I want a reminder that $160 later for a family of 4 isn't worth this and to not repeat this mistake bc we visit this beach often. Definitely walk farther. read more

Stayed in IRB for the week and wanted a fried seafood platter. Stopped by here. Parking on front for free, which was limited, and then on the side there is paid street parking. We were seated immediately. Due to the size of the place we were right next to the kitchen window and the aisle where everyone walks. Didn't love that but there weren't many options for seating. They only offer Pepsi products. There appeared to be only two waitresses for the restaurant this night and they were very busy so service was not great. Basically order was taken and food delivered and no check in for refills or anything else. I ordered a cup of the crab and corn chowder. The flavor was good but this was definitely a corn chowder. I did not taste or see any crab. I'm from Maryland so this was disappointing. For my entree I ordered the shrimp and scallop platter from the entrees. Basic fried food with no seasoning. Fries were very basic, also no seasoning. Would not come back or recommend unfortunately. read more

This place is located on the side of a strip location with other businesses. There is Outdoor seating with no view, but has a cute area with fans and misters. Super close to the beach if you need a bite or drink while hanging at the beach. Cute Surfboard tables and decor. The menu offers multiple Sandwiches, and alot of fish options from nuggets to sandwiches to platters/dinners We enjoyed: Strawberry Margarita on rocks and the Cajun gator bites read more

The food and drinks were very reasonably priced. The servers were friendly and proactive. The restaurant overall was a great vibe. The crab cakes were the best I've had in a very long time, and very inexpensive. The first night was so god, we went back again the next day. The shrimp tacos were phenomenal and also inexpensive. If you're looking for a great place, good vibe, and fairly priced... this is the perfect choice. We were celebrating my birthday and the fried Oreo cake was amazing. Big enough for a party of 9 to share! read more

A fun little place in IRB on Gulf Blvd. We stopped in for an early dinner and were able to be seating right away in the back bar. Even though we're in our early 60's it seemed like we were the youngest people there. The server was awesome and waited on us immediately. They have a decent selection of beers and a full bar. They state that all of their drinks are made: "with a wine base liquor is a fermented beverage flavored to mimic the taste of a traditional distilled spirit". Sounded intereting but wasn't willing to spend the money to just try it. I did try the Grouper Philly sandwich which was very good. I'm always on a quest to try Grouper served a different way and they did a great job. My wife ordered the Grouper Rueben and also liked it very much. We both ordered hush puppies and would agree with a another reviewer that they had good flavor but were very dense. All in all not a bad place and my only reason for not doing 5 stars is the back bar was super small and I felt like our neighbors were sitting super close. Despite that we'd go back and try the front dining room. Good food. read more

First time visiting this restaurant. Had the blackened grouper dinner and it was absolutely amazing. Took my items to go and everything was perfect when I got back to my hotel room. Large portions great taste nice atmosphere and staff was very friendly. Only bad thing is I ate it so fast I forgot to take a picture to show you how great it looked, but I can assure you it tasted better. read more

Good little local place with a local feel. Food came quick and was pretty good. Only a little upset as it was a little busy. It was just my husband and I. An older couple walked in and asked to share a table with us and we happily did. The waiter just complained the whole time of "how hard it was to split the bill". Like, it's not that serious and maybe they just wanted to enjoy the company. We'd go back but complaining as a waitress is a little sour over something so small. read more

Exactly what you would want out of a beachside restaurant. Small, casual, charming, with friendly staff & solid food. Had great kids chicken tenders (we kept snacking off of them too), good French fries & great grouper tacos. Will definitely be back. read more

This place is not to be missed if you are on gulf boulevard . Grouper sandwich is probably one of the bests I've ever had .. crunchy coating and a thick juicy piece of grouper .. grouper tacos are spicy and they are not stingy with the grill grouper either . Royal reds .. steamed or cold .. I prefer cold .. large size ones too . Highly recommend and ask for Val she is awesome . read more

Delightful local gem. They told us to call when we were 20 minutes away to be put on top of the waitlist. Worked fine. Meeting visitors who wanted to see the sunset over the gulf. Found this quaint spot. Sea scallops, shrimp dishes all cooked to perfection. Pleasant staff slightly shorthanded like everyplace on the beach. Walked half a block to watch the sunset. Ambiance amazing! No loud music, annoying DJs or lousy musicians. Just the soothing banter of conversations! Very nice! read more

Nice place and very friendly wait staff. Food is very good nothing fancy just good food in a nice atmosphere in the besch

This is such a fun beachy bar and restaurant. The service was excellent and the food came out quickly and hot. There is a small, friendly bar and a bunch of surfboard tables We had oysters, grouper cheeks, bacon wrapped shrimp, and a grouper dinner. All of our food was well prepared and tasty. There is parking right out in front. read more

This place was so good. Honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better sandwich than what I got. I got the Grouper Sandwich, which I highly recommend. Also the fries were good, hush puppies were fine but not amazing and the service was pretty good. Also it was a nice place that had nice outdoor seating and nice indoor seating. Overall, Beach Waves Grill was a 10 out of 10 restaurant that I would definitely come back to. read more

Wow, the food was fantastic--from the grouper and Maui tacos to the kids' chicken tenders. The chicken was obviously homemade and tasted great. Everything we ordered was fresh and really well prepared. Linda was our server and she was excellent--friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The entire restaurant feels very well run, and it's clear they truly care about the food they serve and the customer experience. Whoever owns and manages this place clearly knows what they're doing. Legendary customer service and great food, just awesome. read more

This is our first time here and it was fantastic! The service was friendly and the food was great! We are so glad that we found parking and a wonderful restaurant. Very cute with a nice outside eating area which is covered with ceiling fans. The tables were miniature surf boards. Next time I will take more photos. Reasonable prices too. read more

I stopped in for a take-out Grilled Grouper Sandwich and had the perfectly seasoned, sweet tomato, lettuce, on a toasted bun w/Tarter Sauce, and fresh cole slaw. Every morsel was delicious! Also, my server was kind, efficient, and my food came quickly! I am especially thankful because I was ravenous and in a hurry! read more

Two people in our party had the smash burgers and said they were very tasty. My husband ordered the Cajun grouper sandwich and he said he would definitely order it again. I had the clam strip basket and it was good. The fries are crispy and they don't skimp on the quantity. I wasn't a fan of the hush puppies (too doughy and dense in the middle) and the slaw was vinegar based, which I don't personally like. We did carry-out so I can't comment on service; however, the food was ready when we arrived for pickup. Rating 4 because of the hush puppies read more

This unassuming little beach bar is a winner. Grouper sandwich was delicious! The fish was lightly fried and so fresh. Coleslaw on the side was well-balanced and the perfect accompaniment. Service was great. read more

From the minute we walked in we were seated by Val at the only remaining table, drinks were ordered, we asked for more time to order. She recited the specials, gave us time, and the food came out hot and delicious! Highly recommend! We sat in dining room as it was a cold night. read more

Quick delivery via DoorDash; service in the restaurant is also quick. This is my go-to restaurant for delivery because of the speed and the delicious food. Love the black bean burger; it's my new favorite. I add provolone cheese and I paid an up charge to have baked potato (SO yummy) as my side. Baked potato available after 5PM so I prefer to order after 5PM. read more

We came here on a Tuesday night for dinner. They weren't too crowded. They have a pretty mural outside their building. All the tables are shaped like a surf board, which is unique. The chairs were really comfortable. The way they were shaped on the back part kind of hugs your back. It felt really good and comfortable, especially when your back is hurting. The service was good. Our server Linda was nice and friendly. We ordered Beachin Burger. It was really good. It was a good size, nice and juicy, and thick. Best restaurant burger I have had in a long time. I highly recommend it. We also ordered the Shrimp Tacos. It came with three tacos plus rice and black beans. It was good. The pico was spicy so we ordered on the side. I highly recommend coming to Beach Waves Grill. It also was fairly quick. We were in and out in less than a hour and we weren't rushed. We also got a pretty view of the sunset from our table. read more

Good casual beach vibe. The grouper fingers were very good. Nothing fancy but good food.

Our favorite place to visit in Indian Rocks Beach! They have the BEST fried ice cream (in fact, this is where I discovered that there's such a thing) and I'm not even kidding, their lemonade is soo amazing!! Every time we come, we always place a huge order for, both, fried ice cream and lemonade. Their calamari is sooo good too. Who am I kidding, everything is so good! And, they gave us a lemonade on the house, how kind! Thank you, Beach Waves Grill, for the super friendly service! Until next time! read more

This is some of the best food I've had in the Indian Shores/iIndian Rocks area! We ate there twice in 2 weeks! Service was fantastic. I definitely recommend this restaurant. Outstanding!! read more

We had the grouper cheek with hush puppies and shrimp tacos. The tacos were really good, the drizzle was spicy but not overly spicy. Grab your drink hot not hurt your mouth hot. Both the regular and strawberry mojitos were very good. Service was great. There was a large family and the waitress kept apologizing for not paying enough attention but she was doing a great job. If we didn't live out of state we would be here more often. read more

The ambiance and timing of food were great! The food itself- bland and overly spicy. We didn't eat half of it and couldn't wait to get out of there because we literally were uncomfortable about it. Don't eat here with kids- most things are overtly spicy (even the hush puppies!), even when you ask "leave the spicy aioli off". They could at least let us know there is still spicy on the tacos (via pico, I imagine). Grouper tacos also had bones & the bacon wrapped scallops were Publix deli grade! Won't be returning. Valerie was a good server. read more

We went there to celebrate a birthday for my sister. Fun place with beach vibes and decor. Our server Stephanie P was very attentive and checked to make sure the food was good and if we needed anything.

My family and I had such a lovely dinner here. Although we weren't able to sit by the outdoor area, it was still close enough to the beach that we were able to step out and enjoy the sunset while waiting for the food. We split a bunch of stuff - ahi tuna was delicious, as well as the grouper cheeks and crab cakes. Our favorite was the royal red shrimp though. Wow, the shrimps were so easy to peel, and very fresh and juicy. We will definitely be back! read more
