    Great specials
    JoJo E.

    We caught fresh fish and brought one here to be prepared and it was wonderful. One of the two filets was prepared blackened and served soft tacos style and the other was battered and fried and served with tartar sauce and a huge side of coleslaw and fries. Our server was a fun gal training a young man and the view of the harbor and boats was nice. The seagulls didn't bother us. Everything was delicious and well made. We were leaving Florida the next day but will come back here again!!

    Definitely a touristy spot with their prices but flavors pretty good overall. Upon arrival the parking area is paid parking only which seems normal for this area of Clearwater. The ambiance of the venue is an open air right next to the marina. The concept of being able to catch a fish and have the restaurant prepare it for you is really cool! For appetizers we got the baked oysters and the ceviche. The oysters were delicious - perfectly cheesy and baked to perfection, great flavor. Not fishy or gritty at all. The ceviche also provided a great flavor and was devoured pretty quickly! For dinner we got the American red snapper, the black grouper and the beef and reef kebabs. The red snapper was yummy but a little fishy for my taste. The black grouper was probably my favorite, stuffed and served with the lobster gravy on top. So good - I wish I would have ordered this for myself! I ordered the beef n reef which had great flavor but only had three half dollar size beef medallions which was really skimpy in my opinion. For dessert, we got the banana bread pudding and which I was so excited for but was a little lacking in flavor. Probably wouldn't get this again. Probably would not dinner again and if I did I would got with a fish! Our servers name was heather and she was very sweet and quick!

    Key lime pie
    Gab G.

    Came at 6:20 PM on a Friday in late May and there was no wait for 2. I tried the grouper cakes, jalapeno and corn hush puppies, Dixie garden salad and Key lime pie. The savory food was good and the pie was amazing - would come back just for that!

    Homemade Key lime pie

    The fam and I had a nice lunch at Salt Cracker Fish Camp. We sat inside on a warm and sunny day, and it was the perfect set up for our baby. I had the grilled grouper sandwich with sweet potato fries, hubby had the fried shrimp, and we split their homemade key lime pie for dessert. The grouper sandwich fit the bill, coming out hot and fresh. Hubby liked his shrimp and it was a good sized portion. The key lime pie was a huge portion; it could have fed at least 4 people. It was on the sweeter side for our liking, but still enjoyed how tart it was. The service here was impeccable. Our waitress was very friendly and even let us try their homemade remoulade sauce. This restaurant is conveniently located next to the boat tours, and we'd definitely return when in the area.

    Tasty scallops and grits and a Key Like pie as big as a door stop! The fish is fresh caught (heard the server telling a table near me that they have a charter boat arrangement thaey source their fresh catch from). I'm told they are known for their Grouper (fried or blackened), but I had a long day of travel ahead of me, so passed this time. Service was friendly and attentive.

    There was a cockroach in my food, and my friend found a hair in their drink. This is absolutely unacceptable!

    Boxed slice of house made  Key Lime pie from Salt Cracker Fish Camp , Clearwater Beach

    We started the day with my wish for a seafood and my wife always hoping for a great Margarita. Well, our wishes came through and far exceeded our expectations! The seafood platter was incredible. 2 large pieces of fish, lots of delicious, to die for scallops , huge shrimp and a mountain of fries. Wow what a treat! My wife had a know put Margarita called heat wave and a monster blackened grouper taco. It was like catching lightning in a bottle. Our server Lori with her sparkling eyes and infectious smile could not have been more attentive or delightful. And if that wasn't enough we took home a humongous key lime pie. What a treat it was for dinner. If you are anywhere near Clearwater Beach, check them out. P.S. Prices can even be considered Bargan rates. Peace

    Grouper Cakes
    Cecillia A.

    So we chose this place because we thought we would be able to view the boat dock but they were still in the process of building it due to hurricane Helene so you don't get the best views. The service was good. Attentive waitress which was nice. Good happy hour special. The food was delicious. The vegetables that came with the grouper cake was so good. Rice was okay, I can pass up on it. Everything else was delicious. Def should check this place out if you are ever in town. They have plenty of parking

    Low Country Boil
    Bubba G.

    Salt Cracker Fish Camp completely exceeded expectations and delivered one of the most memorable meals I've had. The waterfront setting, excellent service, and outstanding food make this place a must visit. We started with the Jalapeño and Corn Hushpuppies with homemade remoulade. They were perfectly crisp, soft inside, and packed with flavor. The remoulade added a creamy, tangy kick that made them unforgettable. The Cajun Mac and Cheese with andouille sausage was easily my favorite mac and cheese ever. The sauce was rich, velvety, and incredibly flavorful, with the sausage adding a smoky, savory depth. It was hearty, indulgent, and satisfying enough to be a meal on its own. The Low Country Boil was the highlight. Everything tasted fresh and perfectly cooked, and the broth was deeply savory, bold, and full of flavor. The seafood, sausage, corn, and potatoes all soaked it up beautifully. Every bite was delicious and comforting. For dessert, the chocolate flourless cake with vanilla ice cream was rich, decadent, and intensely chocolatey. Easily my favorite dessert of the night. The banana bread pudding was also amazing and full of flavor, but the cake takes the top spot. Amazing food, amazing service, and a great atmosphere right on the water. Highly recommend and I will definitely be back next time I'm in Clearwater.

    We went to brunch this weekend and came back for lunch today - the food, the bartenders, the atmosphere - all top notch! Avacado toast,Pancake tacos, fish tacos, cracker tower and flatbread - all delish! But the key lime pie....we try it every place we go and this one HITS!! So amazing with its mile high meringue!!

    A very cute little restaurant on the marina. It's half outdoors and half indoors. They have a great little selection of mocktails that are actually tasty. The flatbreads are delicious and have a great crunch to them. Our server even brought out different dipping sauces!! I would come again just for the flatbreads, they were that good

    Amy M.

    We were walking by on the way back from a fishing excursion, and decided to eat lunch (without checking reviews or anything, *gasp*)... and we ended up pleasantly surprised! We started with oysters, then Hubby had the shrimp po boy and I had the coconut shrimp and a side of street corn. All of it was exceptionally good! We kept saying how yummy everything was and that we were glad we had just popped in. Sometimes things work out well when you just go with your gut. The service was great, the place was cute and the food was delicious, and just what we were looking for on a break from a busy day.

    Just Caught Grouper Sandwich
    Indera H.

    Our first stop on our weekend in the Clearwater area. We were seated outside and not the restaurant's fault, but construction started and we could barely hear each other, unfortunately we had to stay outside as we had our dog with us. But not to dismiss the delicious food and drinks we had. It turns out that they do have happy hour offerings. We had the smokin fish dip, cracker cracker shrimp, raw oysters, chicken wings, jalapeno and corn hushpuppies and a few other things, all the food was delicious and fresh. Service was great.

    Crab and grouper fries.

Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Definitely ask for some extra lemon caper butter because you are going to want it. I had the PEPPER CRUSTED HANGER STEAk, TRUFFLED FRIES, BABY SPInach and a mustard SAUCE. The cook on the steak was medium rare and they nailed it. Great flavor even without the sauce. The truffle fries were about perfect -- crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. Deb had the CHICKEN ROULADE with WILD MUSHROOM RISOTTO, HARICOT VERTS, MUSTARD JUS. It had lots of good flavors, especially with the mushroom risotto, but the chicken itself was a little dry. I had the Decoy Red Blend and really liked it. My first glass wasn't right, but our server immediately took care of it and they opened a new bottle. That's good service. We somehow found room for both the tiramisu and key lime cheesecake. Both were delicious, although the almost-empty cheesecake plate probably tells you which one we liked best. Really good food, excellent service and a much better dinner than we expected from a resort restaurant. We'd definitely eat here again. Flip Flop Rating: 4.5/5 but Yelp doesn't allow .5 so will go 4 but it is really close.

Their Thanksgiving buffet is truly exceptional -- beautifully prepared dishes, delicious flavors, and so many options that everyone walks away happy (and very full!). It's the perfect place if you want a relaxing holiday without the stress of planning, cooking, or cleaning. You just show up, enjoy, and feel taken care of. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming -- it honestly feels like visiting your relatives for Thanksgiving, but with way better food. The staff is a huge part of what makes this place so special. Our server, Alejandro, was amazing as always -- attentive, kind, and genuinely warm. And Alexandra (I believe she's a manager) is absolutely wonderful. She makes you feel welcomed the moment you walk in, incredibly accommodating, and truly goes above and beyond to make the experience perfect. Rusty's Bistro is one of those rare places where the food, the vibe, and the people all come together. If you're looking for a stress-free, delicious, and memorable Thanksgiving, this buffet is the place to be. Highly recommend!
