    Bloody Mary bar
    Gab G.

    Grabbed a 9:45 AM patio reservation for breakfast on a Saturday and was glad I did because a line built up quickly. I had an iced coffee and plain french toast with berries. The French toast was awesome, and the cinnamon butter was so good - it tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch!! Also had a bite of the two egg breakfast which was also great.

    My apologies for not updating my review when we stopped by this last January! So here it is: A bit of an upscale casual place very near the beach for breakfast today. Oscar Crab Bennie, a Meat Lovers Omletet and some Bengeits yo share...all were very good and service was great as well. Nice place to start your day! The last time we were here was 2017 and this visit was much better!

    Chicken Yakitori
    Bonnie L.

    First time at Clear Sky Cafe. We ate outside while a guy was playing his guitar and playing some really good songs. I had chicken yakitori. I had rice, avocado, cucumbers, and pickled onions. Delicious! My husband had the pan seared grouper with a beet salad. Everything was delicious! Thank goodness we came on a Monday night and it wasn't that crowded. Definitely recommend!

    Loving Clearwater so far!

    Our first food stop while in Clearwater for 5 days. The host sat us right away. Not too busy on a Friday at 3:30pm. Luckily they have happy hour everyday from 2-6pm and their wine and cocktails are all 1/2 off! Ordered a skinny marg and Hugo spritz. My margarita had a TON of salt on the rim and some fell into the glass so it changed the taste a lot.

    Fish N Chips, Chicken Tacos, Coconut Shrimp, mojito
    Sonica B.

    Went here on day 1 of our vacation in Clearwater on a Wednesday afternoon. Was recommended by a staff member of the resort we stayed at. Ambience was like your regular breakfast place or diner, but definitely family friendly. We were there with our 8 month old baby boy and felt comfortable. Food tasted pretty okay, we ordered coconut shrimp, fish n chips and chicken tacos for brunch! The fish was a little undercooked and the batter was still a bit wet inside. Other items were not bad. For drinks, I ordered their popular pomegranate mimosa which came really flat (no bubblies) and in a wine glass! I sent it back and got a mojito instead - which tasted a lot better! Additionally, we were not aware the breakfast menu closes at 12 pm and we were already seated, so kind of felt obligated to order from the lunch menu at around 12.05 pm! It was too early for a sea food lunch for us! We saw the table next to us had ordered breakfast just a few minutes before us but we were denied because it was already past noon. Overall a pretty average experience. I was expecting a little more authentic experience but turned out to be just like your local diner.

    Char-grilled Octopus

    This is a very nice restaurant, with good food and service. If you have hearing issues (my husband), be forewarned that the patio and inside restaurant are incredibly loud. Our waiter, David, was delightful and very knowledgeable about the GF items, and was helpful in accommodating me. We started with by sharing the grilled octopus, which was arguably the best I've ever had -- it was very tender, and not a bit chewy. We also had mussels, which were garlicky and delicious, but I was so into the octopus and chimichurri, I only had two mussels! One diner had the blackened mixed grill, which was highly recommended by David, and it was exceptional, with deep flavor profiles, but not overwhelming blackening. Two diners had the grouper sandwich -- my husband said it was the best grouper sandwich he's had (which he confirmed the next day, after having one at Frenchy's). My dinner was the pan seared grouper, which was absolutely excellent -- the butter lemon sauce was rich and almost tasted like hollandaise. David insisted my husband try the key lime pie, which he did, and it was creamy, custardy and very good. Make a reservation and visit Clear Sky!

    Cinnamon Bun French Toast Ribeye Steak & Eggs*
    Melissa P.

    We had the steak and eggs and the cinnamon French toast with pecans it was so delicious. Everything was cooked well. The service was great she was really nice and informative. The ambiance is very relaxed. We liked the outdoor dining. The only con was the orange creamsicle drink it was ok.

    Bloody Mary
    Simran B.

    We joined the walk up list for clear sky via their website around 11am on a Saturday, and our table was ready within 10 minutes. We were seated as soon as we arrived, and throughout our visit the service was really good. My friend and I were having a very hard time deciding, and when we asked the server, she flat out told us that the two things we were torn between were awesome and we should order both and split them. We got the shrimp and grits and the lobster Benedict. On their own, the grits weren't anything special, although they were texturally great. Now when you add the shrimp and gravy . . . This dish is a whole other deal. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, and the gravy was super well balances. It had the perfect level of spice. The lobster Benedict had a perfectly poached egg, and it worked so well. The mornay sauce was a lovely touch. I'd definitely order it again, but I would also definitely order the shrimp again. Long story short, our server was right, they were both amazing. I also got a standard Bloody Mary, which was solid. I would definitely go back to this place. It's got an upbeat, family friendly atmosphere, and I think it's a great spot for locals and out of towners alike. It's also well priced. I'd also love to try their beignets or French toast next time. They've also got a huge lunch/dinner menu that I'd definitely want to try if I were in town for longer.

    Everything was amazing! Mussel sauce was to die for...barramundi was great. Grouper dinner was so good. We tried a lot ant it was all good including the key lime pie. Service was awesome, and love the ambiance. Good change for a beach bar!

    Steak frites
    Alea V.

    The live music is really professional and good. I was really surprised at how much talent the guitarist had. The food was also really delicious compared to some other places we went to. Seems like a lot of restaurants have the exact same thing, but this place also has an Asian flare. I got the dumplings and they tasted homemade, the miso sauce was really delicious. My husband got the dynamite shrimp which is good if you need some food for drinking, it has a large portion, more than just for two. I got the wagyu sliders and the lobster Mac and the sliders don't look like much but they are super delicious! Definitely recommend them. Overall I was super stuffed beyond capacity with them and the lobster Mac. My husband got the steak frites, which in all honesty I would not recommend. The steak was so incredibly chewy and overall not fun to eat. The sauce was good but not enough to compensate for the meat. The waitress was really nice and overall we're had a fantastic time. It's also walking distance from our hotel so it's just really convenient to get good food close by.

    Variety of drinks (all virgin)
    Mirna I.

    Great service. The food was a mixed bag. We loved our appetizer (not pictured)- the dynamite shrimp. The mains were all very flavorful. They were very attentive to an allergy at the table that we appreciated. Nice family friendly restaurant, casual but could be more dressy too.

    We visited on Monday, MLK Day, around 1 PM and were still hoping to catch the brunch menu. Our server, Nico, was fantastic and brought out a special menu with reduced breakfast/brunch options--which turned out to be perfect and satisfied our brunch cravings. We ordered the kitchen sink skillet, the corned beef hash, and the sweet buttermilk pancakes. Everything arrived hot and fresh and was absolutely delicious. We also loved that there's a full bar--I tried the Clear Sky spiked latte, and it was the perfect drink. Definitely a great place to visit while spending time at Clearwater Beach. It is small and there is outdoor seating but it was too cold and windy for that. Would be nice on warmer day.

We started with 3 orders of grilled oysters, 3 for $5 is still a great deal. The cajun seasoning and cheese on top made them incredibly flavorful and enjoyable. They were so good we basically decided to order a second batch the moment we finished the first. We also got the fried Brussels sprouts and coconut shrimp. The coconut shrimp was delicious with the sweet and sour sauce, and the brussel sprouts were just pure yum. We were so into the appetizers that we almost skipped entrees, but decided to share a shrimp po'boy. The shrimp was perfectly crispy, exactly what we were looking for. Overall, great location, great food, friendly staff, fast service, and happy hour makes it all that much better. Will happily return and recommend!

    Salty's Review…read more Stopped in for lunch shortly after arriving in Clearwater since we were hungry and it was conveniently located right across the street from the Opal Sands Resort. When we arrived, the hostess initially tried to seat us in direct sunlight even though there were several shaded tables available. I asked if we could sit in the shade instead, and she happily accommodated us. Our waitress appeared to be the only server working, yet she did an excellent job keeping up with all of her tables. She was attentive, friendly, and provided great service throughout our meal. We started with the coconut shrimp, which were perfectly crispy and delicious. The only odd thing was that they were served on a bed of rice, which didn't really make sense with the dish. We also ordered the grouper po' boy, and it was huge with well-seasoned, flavorful fish. The crab cakes, however, were a disappointment. They were heavily seasoned with Old Bay to the point that it overpowered the crab. I actually had to scrape off the top layer of seasoning just to enjoy them. For drinks, I ordered an IPA, and we also tried the Strawberry Smash that our waitress recommended. Unfortunately, the cocktail was the weakest part of the meal. It tasted more like club soda with muddled strawberries and mint than an actual mixed drink, and it was surprisingly difficult to drink through the straw. Overall, Salty's is a solid spot if you're looking for a casual meal that's convenient and satisfying. The service was excellent, and a couple of the food items really stood out, but nothing we ordered was memorable enough that I'd go out of my way to come back. I'd recommend it for a quick bite, just don't expect to be blown away.

What makes this place unique? They offered Caymus Cabernet BY THE GLASS, which I have not found before, and I frequent higher end restaurants often. It was fun to have a high-end glass of wine without spending hundreds on a bottle. It's also nice if you want to try other drinks. The espresso martini (get it with Baileys added for a smoother taste!) is huge and delicious. Brussel sprouts appetizer and feta whip appetizer were both tasty and ample for two people. The spicy fish tacos are Mahi Mahi and a MUST if you like Mahi. I will only eat Mahi if close to the ocean, and it was great. No fishy taste, nice and tender. The brownie dessert that was off-menu was perfect for a sweet bite. So many nice restaurants get too crazy with their specialty desserts, and sometimes you just want a simple yet decadent treat like a brownie! Make a reservation on their website and relax. It's an easy Uber ride if staying locally as well.
