    I was trying to find a seafood place that isn't a tourist trap and I definitely found that with Crabby's on the lakefront. I came two nights in a row and I enjoyed myself both times. Our server Andre was exceptionally patient with us considering we had never been there before and were peppering him with questions. The restaurant is a decent sized place and offers both inside and outside dining. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The portions are large and by the time we finished our meals we were literally stuffed to the gills. I would highly recommend trying this local spot out if you're in the area.

    Crabby's is quaintly located right on the lake with beautiful views. Dining room options are available inside or out. Crabbys has a beachy feel to it with a fairly casual vibes that let you come as dress down or up as you like. Menu is diverse with many different types of seafood prepaired how you like....they even have boils! We had a range of items from Boils, fish fry's and fish tacos. They offer many different sides beyond French fry's. Dessert was the key lime pie by Mikes which is famous so being one of the best in FL. There's a park near by and an open pier so you can explore the surrounds before/after your meal with much to explore.

    Looking at previous Yelp reviews I was drawn to this place . They sit us very fast and place is very nice with great view of the lake . Now food menu comes with guess the price , doesn't come with majority of items , so you have to constantly ask waitress price for the items which it can be really annoying, the same for cocktails drinks menu has no price and you need to constantly ask . Food was decent , but there were so many items overpriced, example a small lobster tail $60 , that was ridiculous when most places is about $25 to $35 . Very inconvenient place when it comes to order as you be asking all the prices and people around looking you like a cheap guy , but what can you do where no prices on menu . Not a place a want to come again , staff was great

    Came here for drinks and an appetizer while on a bike ride. It was good...nothing crazy. The crab pretzel was adorable but kind of small. The drink selection was fine. The view and getting to sit on the back deck was amazing though. Our waitress was super kind and once she came to us service was quick however it did take a while for someone to help us since they told us we could just go grab a table.

    Enjoying a sunny day outside by the water!

    Go when theres live music outside! The drinks keep flowing with the beautiful sun and breeze from the lake! Appetizers come out fast. Theyre dog friendly and family friendly too!

    Came for a Sunday brunch with the in-laws and the food did not disappoint. The server was very aware, helped us choose a dish, and the food and drinks arrived quickly. Will be returning soon!

    Well service was great! Coby was an amazing server and attentive to our needs. We understand it was full but we were seated in the most uncomfortable location and had to move the table ourselves because it was right in the middle of where the servers were passing and submitting their orders. We wee afraid that if we didn't move the table someone would accidentally drop something on our heads. The ambience was okay. I'm sure that during less busy hours it would be enjoyable. However, the food was a disappointment. The portions are extremely small and even my server made mention that the coconut rice was supposed to come out with coconut flakes on top. It looked like sad hospital food and very bland. The one thing that was good was the lobster nuggets but again in the picture they show a full basket whic was not what we got. Sorry guys. But we won't be returning.

    My parents love coming here and it really is always a fun time, the food is good, we enjoy the drinks and everyone is really nice!

    Not too busy, sat at the bar area and the bar tender was very attentive. He made a few food recommendations. I took one and had the chicken pasta which was amazing. Quite enough to enjoy my conversation would have sat outside but it was too hot.

I went with my mom and it was probably fifty minutes after it had opened for the day. There were quite a few people already eaten and by the demographic (older crowd) I knew this place was going to slap. In addition to that, I heard some of the waitresses talking to the customers and most of them seemed to be locals and frequent customers. Due to that, I figured the food must be good. Anyway, we had a server who was very friendly and personable. I ordered the lunch special where I got the catfish, fried flounder, the vegetable of the day, squash, and mashed potatoes with country fried steak gravy. My mom got fried clam and fried catfish with a side of coleslaw. The ordering time did not take too long and our food came out relatively fast. The catfish was very tasty along with the fried flounder. They are were very well cooked and had a nice breading-to-fish ratio. I enjoyed the yellow squash as the vegetable of the day but I wasn't crazy about the mashed potatoes. I personally would not get them again. My mom enjoyed the fried clam as she talked about how she used to get a Howard Johnsons fried clam sandwich that she still dreams of. She said these fried clams were even better cooked than the ones she had in the past. She also said she really enjoyed the catfish as it was very tasty. Finally, she mentioned how the coleslaw was really good as it wasn't overly 'mayonaisey.' Now, I do have one negative thing to say. Although our waitress was very sweet and kind she was a bit slow on wrapping up our dining experience. We both wanted to get some desert to go, and waited at least ten minutes for her to come back to our table. There was a long period of time where I did not see her waiting on any tables and was in the kitchen. She eventually came back and we ordered the Chocolate Silk Pie and the Peach Cobbler. Then we ended up waiting another ten for the check. Other than that, we did enjoy our experience and this restaurant and would come back in the future.

You can really tell the kitchen takes pride in the quality of the ingredients and preparation. Huge kudos to Chef Frankie for delivering such a phenomenal meal.

She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu without ever making us feel rushed. Her service made the evening feel relaxed and enjoyable.

    I was craving a good steak and came across this casual, laid back steakhouse. After reading several…read morereviews praising their beer cheese and pretzels, I knew I had to find out for myself. I made a reservation, but when I arrived, only a few people were sitting at the bar, so I practically had the entire dining room to myself. Phyre is located on a quiet street just steps away from St. Cloud City Hall. The décor features black velvet booths, black chairs, and marble tables. It isn't fancy, but it has a cool, modern vibe. They even had a huge Christmas tree still on display, decorated in preparation for the Fourth of July, which definitely caught my attention. Allie was my host and server, and she was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout my visit. Every restaurant needs a Allie. She was amazing! If Phyre management reads this, she needs a raise. I mean absolutely wonderful service! I started with what they call the "Our Fashion" cocktail and their famous pretzels served with beer cheese . The cocktail was enjoyable, and I can see why the pretzels get so much attention. They were soft, warm, and fresh. I would have preferred a little less salt, but then again, it wouldn't really be a pretzel. The cheese sauce could have been hotter, but it was flavorful and paired well with the pretzels. For my entrée, I ordered the surf and turf featuring filet medallions, three crab-stuffed shrimp, and a side of garlic mashed potatoes. The food arrived surprisingly quickly, which I appreciated. The filet medallions were cooked to a perfect medium and had a nice slight crisp on the outside, although they weren't quite as hot as I would have liked. It was served towith a delicious wine sauce that really elevated the dish. The crab stuffed shrimp were flavorful, and the garlic mashed potatoes were a great complement to the meal. Overall, I enjoyed my Sunday dinner at Phyre. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the food delivered a satisfying steakhouse experience. I'd definitely return to try more of the menu.
