    Grouper Cheeks- excellent
    Stephen S.

    Great find. I Couldn't find parking anywhere in Clearwater beach for lunch and was frustrated driving around for over an hour so I ended up here for Lunch. Perfect spot. Sat outside on the shaded patio. Restaurant is an old house. . Clean, decorative, and a homey feeling. Service was excellent- beautiful server from Poland. she helped us with menu selections and was on her game keeping us happy. She suggested the clam chowder- wow! Great batch. Delicious! Lots of clams , corn, potatoes. We all ordered a bowl and everyone liked. Fried Grouper Cheeks were suggested so I had to try . Delicious, light eating, fried perfectly. A must try item. I decided the grouper special for the main dish. Excellent! grouper is one of my favorite fish and I can say it was a winner. Free parking in the lot. Come on down, check them Out. A nice spot to cool off to have a drink, eat, take a break while walking downtown. Soft shell crab sandwich was a winner! Come on down.

    This was our first time trying this restaurant. We very much enjoyed the service and food. The atmosphere was great as well , they had live music. They have their own parking lot , so parking was not an issue. I think my favorite food was the salmon fish dip and the clam chowder. Did not even get a photo of the clam chowder it was gone so fast. Everything was delish. Definitely a place to check out in Dunedin!

    Went for a solo dinner and Sea Sea Riders did not disappoint. I was greeted by two servers who were both hospitable and attentive, they checked in on me frequently and ensured I had everything I needed. I ordered the Blackened Scallop Wrap and it was delicious, a light wrap with fresh strawberries to compliment the scallops. I paired it with the white sangria, which was both refreshing and delicious. Thanks for the good meal!

    I came here once on my way to a baseball game, and I'm telling you, so far it's pretty good! The service is good, the atmosphere is definitely welcoming and harbor-like. No complaints there! The food so far is decent; I tried their clam chowder and honestly it was alright, but nothing I'd write home about. Still, that was only a snack I had; Their main courses I've yet to try and I do intend on doing so. This place does have some fantastic mocktails and cocktails for those looking to just hang out! It's hard to find any place that does mocktails where I'm from so I definitely will give this place that. Overall, I would definitely recommend!

    Sunshine outdoor seating specialty drink menu delicious food you can't complain about this place it has a great vibe and good food. The drinks are delicious as well as the food. The staff was very helpful, and efficient. The place was extremely busy but there was a real good turnover, no one really had to wait which was a bonus.

    Spent the day in Dunedin and was invited here . The famous blueberry drink was great. The bites was just okay. The shrimp appetizer wassss 10/10 highly recommend. The server was very nice but extremely busy and forgot to bring out my food (had to sit and watch everyone else eat) then forgot to bring my second round of drink. (I was the last one eating lol .. holding up the table) But still had a good time.

    Every time we are in Florida we must visit this place. It is very cozy and quiet. The environment is very friendly the staff is outstanding. The food is delicious and drinks are superb. This is a plus they also have outdoor dining. Great for a couples night out!

    Field of Dreams and Hemingway's Whiskey. 10/10 for both
    Whisper W.

    We stopped in for a quick bite and drinks. We ordered the Field of Dreams and Hemingway's Whiskey. Both were easily in the top 5 best cocktails I've ever had- I don't even like whiskey. We ordered the grouper cheeks. I wish they charred the corn but it was still really good. I'm only giving a 4 and not a 5 because our server was not friendly. For example when she took our plates away we said thank you and she said, "Yuuupp." She didn't even look at us in the eyes or smile. Maybe she had some personal stuff going on, but it was a main reason we only ate apps and didn't order dinner. We went down the street to eat something else.

    We reserved a table for a large group and were seated promptly in a nice private area. We were greeted by Stacey our server who brought us Water and took our drink orders as well which was appreciated on that hot and humid day...drinks came out promptly. We place our orders and I do have to say, wow...the food came out very quick for a large party and was served hot and fresh! Service was just amazing and food was delicious..I ordered a New York Strip which is something I normally do not order and it was cooked perfectly and was delicious along with the Garlic Potato Wedges. Some of our party had the Brussel Sprouts, the Shrimp Pasta,Salads and ac and Cheese and were all very pleased..I ordered the Lemonade with Strawberries which was freshly made in house and was not crazy about it, sent it back because it did not taste like it had any sugar in it and got it back and was still weak..not worth 6.00...everythong else was too notch including the service from Stacey, she was a gem...I would recommend coming here and the staff was super friendly and happy unlike some places you go to, a welcome change for sure!

    Brusssel sprouts

    Look at the reviews ! They do not lie. This place is not good and it's not worth the price. We ordered a ton of appetizers and the grilled grouper sandwich. -fried shrimp -Brussels sprouts -Deviled eggs -fish and chips -smoke salmon dip -grouper sandwich The "best " thing was the fried shrimp and grilled grouper sandwich. The smoked salmon dip and Brussels sprouts were HORRID!! The service was good and our waitress was nice. The ambiance was also very chill and live music was playing. We were visiting Dunedin so this is not somewhere we frequent. If we come back, it definitely won't be here.

    We had a five star experience. Not sure why this place only has three stars. First, they have a cool old Florida plantation house with a wraparound porch and large windows. Loved the atmosphere. Service was top notch, we were seated quickly at a large table by the window with great views. Our server was friendly and offered really good suggestions when asked. Note this place has a made from scratch kitchen. We ordered blackened grouper sandwiches, blackened mahi-mahi, grouper nuggets and fries, and the kids had chicken strips and cheese burger. The grouper and mahi-mahi sandwiches were fantastic, as was the grouper nuggets and kids meals. Also ordered the special grapefruit cocktail which was very refreshing on a hot humid Florida afternoon. Would recommend and can't wait to go back.

    Fried green tomatoes

    So there I was, shopping downtown Dunedin on the last Saturday before Christmas. I was already feeling festive. Then I had the their award-winning Blueberry Yum Yum. I was flying with Santa after that. No wonder, as the sign out front denotes: it's been named one of the top 10 best cocktails in the country. I'll drink to that! It was a dreamy concoction in a gorgeous color. I'll let the magic remain and not give much away. I hope you find yourself there on a happy afternoon and can sip and see for yourself. I also tried the fried green tomatoes in the "snacks" section of the menu. Beautifully presented, it was also a generous portion (five big slices for nine dollars.) I'm not a condiment fan so I should have asked for it without the buttermilk ranch (my bad) but the tomatoes were so good, I worked around it. Service from Michael was excellent. The ambiance was warm and welcoming with a definite Florida vibe. There's tons of seating, both inside and out, and a menu I'll be back to explore. It's so fun to fall into a delight. This one of those times. Sea(!) you soon, Sea Sea Riders!

    Nice restaurant that has been a downtown Dunedin staple for over 30 years. Small menu. Fresh food. Staff is attentive. Parking is next door.

    I grew up in the Midwest, with a typical "meat and potatoes" diet. On the rare occasion that…read moreseafood was on the menu, it was typically a frozen variety like Groton's, or the occasional fish fry at the Elk's Club. That's changed since moving to the Gulf Coast of Florida, where the fish at the local restaurant today was probably swimming yesterday. My "go-to" seafood now is a grouper sandwich which I order blackened but NOT fried. I've sampled grouper sandwiches from many local dining establishments, but my favorite is from "Carvor's Fish House" A couple of important notes: 1) Carvor's is only open for LUNCH. Their hours vary, so you'll want to check the website, but they typically close at FIVE PM, with the last order accepted at FOUR PM. 2) Carvor's has NO inside dining The patio is tree-shaded with extra umbrellas but if it's really hot, you may be uncomfortable. 3) Carvor's has COUNTER SERVICE. You go inside, order your food and THEN go back outside and select a table. When your food is ready, a server will bring it to your table. 4) This is downtown Dunedin, and parking can occasionally be a challenge on Douglas Street, but FREE parking is available in the city parking garage across the street. Pictured is my "blackened grouper" sandwich. A refreshing change from the usual French fries is their homemade chilled tomato, cucumber and onion salad. Delish!

The next time, we went for lunch and they were out of some things that we initially ordered, but we ended up with a heating plate of fried things that kind of felt like bar food.

The best part was that this was my daughter's very first lobster roll, and she LOVED it! Seeing her face when that giant lobster roll came out was priceless. I think we officially have another lobster roll lover in the family! My son went with the Lucky Burger, made with a brisket and short rib blend, and that was a hit too. It's always nice when a seafood restaurant also makes a great burger for someone who isn't ordering seafood.And since it was my birthday, a cocktail was definitely happening! I ordered the coconut mojito and it was SO GOOD! The sweet dried coconut around the rim was the perfect touch. I would absolutely order it again. Great food, generous portions, fun atmosphere, and a wonderful birthday dinner with my family. We will definitely be back!

From the moment I saw the seafood case, everything looked ridiculously fresh, and that freshness carried straight onto the plate. The Tides is both a seafood market and restaurant, so you're surrounded by beautiful seafood and ingredients that actually look like they belong there. Then I noticed the MICHELIN plaque outside the building and thought, wait a minute... THIS place has Michelin recognition? Apparently, yes! The Tides has earned a place in the MICHELIN Guide, which suddenly made a whole lot of sense after tasting the food. That salmon was seriously some of the best I've ever had. Fresh, beautifully prepared and so clean tasting that it didn't need a bunch of heavy sauces or nonsense piled on top. It felt like one of those rare meals that is indulgent because it's delicious, but you also walk away thinking, I actually ate something good for me.

Chefs should start tasting their own food to know if it tastes good or not or maybe they were raised in a bland household but someone needs to understand taste and seasoning.

It was rather quiet inside; just us and two other tables at 5:30, and by the time we left only two more parties had come in. But people need to give this gem more attention! My mom & I split the burrata appetizer; it was so fresh and flavorful that we agreed it's the go-to app going forward for us. I then opted for the steak dish for my entree which was perfectly cooked, had a great sauce, and was loaded with delicious sides. The portions were a great size; unfortunately we didn't have room for dessert but we absolutely left with full, happy bellies. Our server was perfectly attentive and gave great recommendations. Again it wasn't super busy that night so we had no issues with timing anything, and he was very knowledgeable about the menu. Since this is a more upscale meal (with the prices reflecting that without being astronomical), I'm not sure I can make this a monthly go-to, but it's definitely a new favorite for a special night out.
