We were fortunate enough to be in town the night they reopened. Everything was fabulous, the food was amazing, the setting and the service. All top notch. Best wedge salad I've had, and I get wedge salads whenever they are featured on a menu. We had a few different broiled oysters, all delicious and fresh fish, (Triple Tail I believe) which was also incredible. read more

Another great meal at oyster catchers. The service here is always top-notch. Reservations are recommended. We were warmly greeted upon arrival and quickly seated. Donald, our waiter for the evening, came over and introduced themselves and took drink orders. We enjoyed two rounds of those before dinner while enjoying views of Tampa Bay outside the restaurant windows. There is outdoor seating, but it was too hot and humid this evening to make that an enjoyable experience, but I highly recommend that during the months of October through April. For dinner, we ordered the special which was a crab stuffed. Flounder, the seared scallops, a wedge salad and some fried green tomatoes. The food is always good here and tonight was no different. Everyone enjoyed their selections with special attention to the crab stuff. Flounder. It was a nice large portion and cooked perfection. For dessert the party split one slice of Keylime pie has nobody is really big on desserts, but you can't leave Oyster Catchers without having a bite or two. Shout out to Donald and his support staff for a wonderful evening and for keeping the drinks flowing, and the water glasses filled. read more

To end my vacation and birthday weekend on a high note, I decided to treat myself to brunch at Oystercatchers, and it was the perfect choice. It was my first visit; and I was immediately impressed by the beautiful setting. I was seating toward the back where I enjoyed waterfront views as I was enjoying my meal. The brunch buffet was absolutely scrumptious, offering a variety of dishes. From fresh seafood, cheese platters, meat; salad, pastries, and many more options. There was something for every palate. Every item I tried was delicious. The service was impeccable. As a wine lover, I especially appreciated the Whitehaven wine tasting and the souvenir glass, which was a wonderful addition to the brunch. To finish; I enjoyed a delicious espresso martini while savoring some pastries. It's on the pricier side, but worth every penny for the quality of food, outstanding service, and beautiful atmosphere. I highly recommend if you are looking for a memorable brunch experience. read more

If you do not know it's here you will never find it. But once you do, it is an experience Table of six, and there was not one negative word about the food The appetizers which were shared were all amazing The milk bread, calamari schnitzel(I know never heard of it) and the conch was all amazing. Super flavorful I had the étouffée which was filled with seafood. One warning I will give you there are two gigantic prawns as you will see in the picture, totally enclosed in the original carcasses. But once you get past that, extremely tasty. My wife had the swordfish which she said was perfectly cooked and seasoned All in all a beautiful setting over the water, excellent service and it was a great evening. read more

Always a treat when your hotel happens to have an EXCELLENT seafood restaurant next door! The views from inside the restaurant are gorgeous since it looks right outside the beach and the servers were very friendly and prompt with the food. Tried out their Summer Seafood boil special that had Gulf shrimp, clams, Alligator sausage, Conch fritters and Dungeness crab in a lemon butter sauce! DAMN delicious and of course I also had some oysters from Massachusetts and Canada. You can test the freshness of the products and along with the view and service, this was a great experience. read more

I was vey excited to originally come here last Saturday as we had a good friend visiting us from Chicago. Things changed and it turned to a party for two yesterday. Parents night out was a great time at Oystercatchers. We started with the Single Tier Seafood Plateau and beyond the oysters, for me the Tuna Poke was the bomb!! This was a nice start to our experience. Then I did the St Augustine Clam Chowder and while it was good, it was a bad order on my part as it's a hearty soup. It was too much for me at this time of the year. Then we split the Seafood Mac and Cheese which was great and had some killer pieces of shrimp and spiny lobster in there. Now I won't go into details but we had an issue and the staff did an amazing job going above and beyond to resolve it. We weren't looking for them to go above and beyond but we appreciated it. We also had a nice view of the Bay during dinner which was nice. Comp valet is available which is a nice touch. We will come back in a few months to check out their brunch! read more

Excellent all around! Food, service, view, drinks.....need I say more? Birthday celebration for my wife. Showed up a bit early to have drinks at the bar. Excellent selection of liquors, great service and wonderful martinis. When our table was ready, got a seat near the window to see the bay, was excellent. Ordered an assortment of oysters to start. They offer oysters from across the country, so we tried some from all areas. Excellent overall, they even had little flags denoting the place of origin. (see pics) Entrees were awesome! My wife got the grilled Snapper, and I forgot to get a pic of my wife's dinner, but got one of my scallops. Some of the best scallops I have had. Brought my wife a dessert to top it all off. Definitely a place to go for celebrations. (or anytime really) read more

The atmosphere and location of this restaurant is amazing. The outdoor dining area has an amazing view. The food is well prepared and definitely cooked to order and fresh. The restaurant's specialty is primarily seafood but offers steak and chicken options. My only gripe was that there was no salt or pepper on any of the tables and patrons have to request condiments, which is the reason for the 4 star review. I would highly recommend dining at this restaurant for a special occasion. read more

You can't beat these views. Decided to sit on back porch the weather was perfect. My friend ordered the fish of the day it was yellow tail snapper topped with trout roe with a side of broccolini. She liked her meal. She also got a Bloody Mary (she was disappointed they didn't have a shrimp or bacon topping option) the waitress that is only available on Sundays. I loved my grouper sandwich and garlic fries. The ettoufee mayo is excellent I recommend asking for extra to dip the fries into. read more

This was one of my favorite spots years ago. It is not that place anymore. Three people, no drinks, $120 per person plus a 20% surcharge we were never told about in advance. For that price, the experience was inexcusable. The food: The buffet had almost nothing to offer if you are not drinking or eating raw seafood. The mahi-mahi in banana leaf sat there, dried out, the same eight small pieces for over an hour. Nobody replaced it. I never ate it. The tomahawk steak was the one bright spot, and the gentleman carving it was genuinely personable, but they kept running out and there was always a line. That cut of meat is too difficult to maintain at volume. Someone should have planned better. The shrimp and grits were watery and also sat untouched and unreplenished. The raw bar ran out repeatedly. The small lobster tails disappeared twice. No salads unless you count the one with oysters in it. No variety for anyone who does not drink or eat shellfish. Desserts looked like they came straight out of a Sysco box and were left disheveled on the table. The coconut flan and the small lemon ricotta cookies were the only things that appeared house made. Everything else looked frozen and forgotten. The charcuterie boards looked pretty but the cheeses were dry and the meats were aggressively over salted. The service: Understaffed and inattentive. No one came to the table to take omelet or beverage orders after one order at the start. We told our server we were there for Father's Day. He nearly forgot. Not one happy Father's Day from him or anyone else on the floor. The bottom line: My mother barely ate. I waited over an hour for an entree that was never restocked. We paid $450 for a mediocre, disorganized brunch with a surprise surcharge and staff who clearly could not keep up. There are too many good brunch options out there to waste your money here. This one is off my list permanently. Zero stars for the brunch. I do not recommend it. read more

One of the best meals of the year! Came here to eat with my sister and the food quality portions and service were absolutely amazing. We had pomegranate tea, salmon ceviche, broiled oysters, raw oysters, and the Mahi-Mahi special with broccoli rabe. Not too pricey for the up scale selections we chose, too. Nice presentation and fresh flavor. All servers and staff were kind. Compliments to the chef and owner. Beautiful views of Old Tampa Bay & Clearwater. Will be back every time we're in Tampa! read more

I was down in Tampa for a conference and pleasantly surprised to discover that our hotel, the Grand Hyatt, houses a lovely seafood restaurant called Oystercatchers. At night it has a cozy, intimate vibe yet still very open with bright walls and a small bar, but during the day you can sit by the windows and enjoy a really nice view of the water. Booking was easy through SevenRooms, and a big plus: no reservation fees. I was able to change my reservation multiple times without any hassle, which is always appreciated when travel schedules are doing their own chaotic thing. Once we arrived, we were seated promptly, and the service was excellent. Our server was genuinely helpful, friendly, and honestly the highlight of the entire experience. The menu is fairly broad but clearly seafood-forward, though there are meat and vegetarian options if seafood isn't your thing. We ordered the seafood plateau, listed at $65, which included five fresh oysters, fish dip, about three jumbo shrimp, and sliced carrots and cucumbers. It's definitely a steep price, but not wildly out of line with other seafood spots. We added three extra oysters at $4 each, and overall it was quite filling, especially the fish dip, which came with crackers and was very satisfying. For salads, we got a Caesar and asked to split it into two plates, which I thought was a really nice touch. That said, the portion size was on the smaller side for the price. The lettuce was also not cut up, which is always a pet peeve of mine because I don't always want to cut up my own salad. The oyster cesear dressing, however, was excellent. We also got the bread (milk bread), which was incredible. Soft, warm, slightly sweet, paired with a special creamy butter. Honestly my favorite part of the meal. Bread is everything. Also, it was the first thing I ate all day, so it truly hit on a spiritual level. For entrées, we both went with fresh grilled fish. My significant other got the snapper, and I ordered the black grouper. Both were around $40-$45 and came on a bed of succotash with a side of broccolini, which was very well done. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. I've had better grilled snappers, but this very good. By the time dessert rolled around, we shared a Key lime pie. It was nicely tart and refreshing, a good palate cleanser, though I was definitely quite full by then. They also have a decent cocktail menu. Nothing groundbreaking, but solid. Wine selection was good as well, with enough variety to keep most people happy. One thing worth noting: when the bill came, we noticed we were charged $70 for the seafood platter, even though the menu listed it as $65. We asked about it, and the manager handled it well, explaining that the price had recently changed and that he would update both the online and in-house menus. No hard feelings at all, but it's a good reminder to always check your bill before leaving any restaurant. Overall, a very enjoyable meal with great service, beautiful views, and solid seafood. A bit pricey, yes, but that's kind of the territory these days. I'd definitely return, especially if I'm staying at the hotel again read more

Went in yesterday for Brunch. 1st time since they restarted it. Pretty disappointed. Overcooked and presliced meat, very dry mahi, no longer offering a pasta station. Even though they show the caviar bowls, they simply had a few blinis with a pitiful amount of caviar. Very limited omelettes available to order from server. Shrimp and grits ice cold The good....seafood bar, excluding caviar, was fresh and shrimp were perfectly cooked and huge, jonas crab and oysters excellent. Aged scrambled eggs were very good. Pastry very good. Definitely not worth the 84 dollar price. Highly doubt we would return. Great view and service. read more

We came here during a staycation and were genuinely surprised by how much we loved it. Our server was great, really personable and made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. The broiled oysters with black garlic were incredible, and we also loved the crab cake appetizer. The fried snapper completely stole the show for me, I literally can't stop talking about it. My boyfriend loved his dish just as much, which says a lot. The views overlooking the water made everything even better and gave the whole night that perfect relaxed but elevated vibe. read more

Came there for lunch and chose A Shrimp with Orzo entree and my lunch friend a Grand Seafood Salad. The Salad was a sight to behold, as it was a huge platter that appeared big enough for 4 people. Huge Romaine lettuce sections nicely dressed and covered with Octopus, Crab chunks, huge Shrimp, Hearts of Palm, Red Onions, and Green olives, so very delicious. The Shrimp and Orzo was good as well. The shrimp was cut in bite size pieces, cooked properly, land the Orzo was savory. I wasn't able to eat but half. Both were boxed up to go for another meal at home. read more

This restaurant's selling point is the view. Especially at sundown when guests flock to the back deck for photo ops, leaving their chowders, salads and entrees alone on the table. I positioned myself on the back deck for dinner right before sunset. I started with three broiled oysters in a classic topping of spinach garlic butter ($14). They were wholly delicious. Maybe I should have passed on the St Augustine Clam Chowder ($13), a bowl of lukewarm tomato based broth with datil pepper, pancetta and diced vegetables including potatoes. The highlight was to be a fried clam fritter- a clam golf ball that waded in the broth, like a beach ball in the pool. It was too fried to absorb the liquid and required a knife or a stab from the soup spoon to break it apart. Bits of clam were now exposed to a soggy mass of fried batter. Ugh. The jerk chicken entree ($34) was too much money for too little moistness and real Jamaican jerk flavors. Bits of papaya, mango and peanuts were around the piece of chicken. Sides of cilantro white rice and slaw accompanied the chicken but didn't do much to salvage the bird. Just meh. Service was prompt and friendly. So maybe the sunset serves well to distract from the menu. read more

Oystercatchers brought back a brunch buffet this Labor Day weekend, and as someone who loves a good buffet, and is a sucker for seafood, it felt like the perfect time to check it out. The buffet offers a wide variety of options. The raw seafood station is the star of the show, with oysters, shrimp, tuna, and fish dip, all fresh and flavorful. The shrimp, in particular, stood out: large, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. There's also an excellent salad and charcuterie area, along with a breakfast section where you can build bagels and other morning favorites like lox or toast (I skipped that part). I did, however, go all in on the hot breakfast items. The signature lobster and crab omelet was phenomenal, and even the scrambled eggs from the buffet were surprisingly some of the best I've had. The breakfast potatoes and shrimp and grits were also highlights. They served a very tasty prime rib, accompanied by some incredible mashed potatoes. There was a pasta station as well, which I didn't try only because I was already too full, but it looked great. For dessert, they had a variety of pastries, cookies, and banana pudding. Everything I tried was good, but I do think the dessert station could be elevated a bit, maybe with a signature item or something like an ice cream option. The location is unbeatable, right on the bay. We lucked out and got a window-side table with beautiful water views, which made the experience even better. Service was excellent throughout. Everyone was super friendly and attentive. While the buffet is a bit pricier than others in the area, it's reflective of the quality and setting. I definitely felt it was worth the price and am already looking forward to going back. read more

While staying at the Grand Hyatt on Tampa bay, we went for dinner at the Oystercatcher. We are glad we made a reservation; by the time we finished dinner, the restaurant was packed. The appetizer we ordered to share was "calamari schnitzel" (calamari, butterflied, and then pounded, breaded and fried as a schnitzel). The scallops were also good. The waiter suggested the coconut crème pie for dessert; we had the key lime pie; we should have listened to the waiter. Only things missing were: 1. White table cloths and 2. Carpet for noise abatement. This was a great seafood meal on a cold Florida weekend night. read more

We were staying at the Grand Hyatt, so this was a logical choice. If you're not at the hotel, it feels a bit off tge beaten path, but it's honestly worth the effort. Some nice views, outstanding service, and some really great food. We tried a number of dishes and the onlt miss was the Calamari which was just way too salty. Nice cocktail and wine menu.

First time dining at Oystercatchers and will definitely be coming back soon - I had no idea they've been around since the 80s!! Upon entering we were greeted right away and provided with several options of where to sit. We had a lovely chat with the manager which checked back with our table several times to ensure we were having a great time. Jack was a phenomenal server, he took great care of us and provided answers to every question we had about the place and menu. He even started us off with a Champagne toast on the house as we were celebrating a graduation, early birthday, and belated Mother's Day all at once (very busy group of women)! We of course ordered several rounds of oysters, the tuna poke, deviled egg trio, crab cake benedict, and the remoulade shrimp roll. Love that everything is made in house from scratch - all the way down to the hot sauce and crackers. (They need to sell these togo. I cant describe how buttery and amazing they were!) Extremely impressive service, ambiance and food. I look forward to returning for dinner, and also can't wait to check out their private dining space for special events!! read more

This restaurant is beautiful and has lovely views of the bay and sunset.We were staying at the Grand Hyatt Tampa for a wedding and decided to try this beautiful restaurant. I wish we had a better experience than we did. Do know if you want a seat by a window, you need to make reservations in advance. This was not the host's fault, but we were not allowed to be seated there because of other reservations, even though the tables were empty during our time there. Our waitress was extremely welcoming and sweet. She took the time to share the history of the restaurant and welcome us for our brief trip in Tampa. We were able to use our hotel drink vouchers for mocktails which was nice. I got a blood orange spritz and my fiancé got a strawberry tonic. The mocktails were very ok. I was most excited to try the oysters. I'm a huge oyster person. On the evening we were there, they had three different types of oysters. You're required to order the oysters for $12 for three. I got excited when I saw the single seafood tower with oysters. I had asked our waitress to do one of each type of oyster in the five that came with the tower. When our single tower came out, we weren't told which oyster was which. We waited a bit to get our waitress' attention and she told me they were all the same Alabama ones. I'm not sure what happened, but I wish I knew we couldn't mix and match in the seafood tower before ordering. One of the five oysters did not look good either, it was cloudy and milky in a gone bad way. The other four were good though. The poke had too much full pepper grains in it and the fish dip was way too salty for my liking. I wish we had a better food experience here. read more

My husband and I came here for the brunch buffet. We were sat at two top inside right by the window and it was the prettiest table. Our server Donald was a true professional ensuring our coffees and waters were full, our empty plates were cleared, and our silverware was replaced after each round at the buffet. The buffet itself had some hits and misses (I feel like all buffets do), but overall I would recommend it. I was impressed by the raw bar selection and their speciality seafood omelet with lobster, crab, and trout roe was honestly the best omelet I've ever eaten. I was also a fan of the lemon ricotta pancakes, the biscuits and gravy, the bacon, and the amazing selection of deserts (my favorites were the raspberry chocolate tart, the brownie, and the chocolate donut). If you're looking for a great brunch option with a really beautiful ambiance, I would recommend checking this place out! read more

Best brunch ever! I honestly have been dreaming of this brunch since we left Sunday. My fave was the raw bar - the oysters were so fresh and delicious. The caviar was to die for.

I recently went to Oystercatchers for brunch. Here is what I thought. Atmosphere: I've been going to Oystercatchers since I was a kid and it will always be one of my favorite places to eat. I came here for my post-wedding brunch with my husband! The building always looks great on the inside and I'm happy it was fine from the hurricanes. We sat on their outside shaded balcony, it was so nice and relaxing. You can't beat their unobstructed view of the water! It felt so private too. Service: The service is always great here. Everyone was so friendly and congratulated us on our marriage. Food: We loved our brunch. We ordered their pastry basket as an appetizer and everything on it was delicious and filling, you can definitely share it between 3-4 people. I had their 'B.E.C Sandwich' for my entree and it was delicious. It was a little hard to eat because it was so big, so I just ate it with a fork and knife. It said it would come with a side salad, but came it potatoes instead. My husband tried their 'Crab Cake Benedict' which he thoroughly enjoyed. We took leftovers home. We love Oystercatchers and will definitely back for another dinner or brunch! Instagram: @living.with.reg read more

We had about an hour and a half before our flight home so we made a lunch pitstop in to Oystercatchers. What we really wanted on this trip was fresh oysters and we were made whole with a selection of three types. We were told that each day there are three different oysters available. We chose two types sold in sets of three at $4 each. These were the most expensive we had eaten in three different spots by far but since we were on vacation, we considered it to be ok. Presentation was perfect- served chilled with the ice underneath and not on top of them, without the local traditional crackers either. The two types we chose were delicious and fresh. Each day you'll have a different and fun set of choices. For lunch my wife chose the tuna poke and I had a burger I never expected to finish. We ate everything brought to us and I may have bitten a chunk off the plate. Cooked perfectly and juicy, my burger turned out to be a delightful surprise. She loved the tuna poke so it was a super stellar lunch. Our server Kelly was super friendly and being a local from the immediate area gave us some great directions. She brought our food quickly and knowing we were headed to the airport, she got us checked out quickly. With outside and inside seating that all take in views of the incredible water and beach sand, you can't help but be relaxed from the moment you walk in. For that special night out, there is valet for your car and the overall feel of the decor makes you realize that you're somewhere special. read more

I went to Oystercatchers for a work dinner and was blown away by the wait staff. Friendly, attentive, and full of great suggestions, they truly made our meal. We had a variety of items off the menu- from the charcuterie board to the brussels to the seafood trio to the red snapper to every single dessert on the menu. The red snapper was my favorite-extremely fresh, perfectly cooked, and regional. I've been craving it ever since I left! For dessert, my coworkers couldn't stop raving about the date option. I personally enjoyed the lemon and key lime options. I'd recommend this as a great spot with a modern and welcoming decor. read more

I came here for a work dinner and absolutely AMAZED by this food. Im a bit of a picky eater so read the menu beforehand. For appetizers, i ordered the pork belly and milk bread and i honestly had to take a moment because i couldn't tell which was better. The milk bread was fluffy beyond words. They also had a citrus and sweet butter that complemented perfectly. We had to order another batch of bread because it lasted all of 2 minutes. The pork belly was slightly glazed and a hint of salty which blended perfectly. It was on top mashed squash which was do flavorful i thought it was sweet potatoes! The pickled onion offset the sweetness and truly a show stopping appetizer. I was beyond full from the bread and skipped main course but what i did have was more than enough to love. I do wish there were more options but they serve their specialty so i cant complain. The atmosphere was breathtaking and absolute perfect photo moment! read more

This was an exceptional experience and a five-star visit. The food and bar service were outstanding. Our bartender was warm, attentive, and made the experience truly enjoyable. The French white oysters and frittata were excellent, and exactly what you hope for when enjoying wine and oysters. The only small setback was our initial interaction at the host stand. We asked to sit outside to enjoy the beautiful weather, but were directed to the bar despite the outdoor area being empty. She told us to watch TV.... It was a brief moment that contrasted with an otherwise wonderful experience. Overall, Oyster Catchers delivers exceptional quality and atmosphere, and with a slightly warmer welcome at the door, it would easily be a five-star destination. read more

My husband and I have frequented Oystercatchers for 17 years and have ALWAYS been welcomed and spoiled by the doting waitstaff. The food was always amazing to go along with the impeccable service...BUT....this time we left disappointed. The new chef took off the ICONIC sourdough bread. Yep. Forget about it. It's gone. It's been replaced with a milk bread that tastes a lot like Hawaiian rolls. We tried it, it was fine, but if I had a choice of their signature sourdough bread or the chef's new Hawaiian rolls, give me the sourdough. Of all the menu items we enjoyed, it's sad that I can't give them a better review over bread, but you just don't remove a signature item. The sourdough complimented every menu item, but the sweet milk bread somewhat contrasts with seafood. Nevertheless we love the service and ambiance and will hold out hope that one day that amazing sourdough bread loved by many local regulars will find its way back on the menu. read more
