    This place is definitely a find! Amazing seafood! We found it while staying at St Pete Beach. They sat us outside since we wanted the nice sea breeze and the setting sun. Btw --ask (if possible) for Alan if you want the best service in St Pete Beach. He was super knowledgeable on every single dish and had the best of recommendations. Something tells me this guys is a true foodie! He said to try the Blue Fin Tuna appetizer which was killer esp with its teriyaki/blueberry sauce. We also split the Coconut Curry Snapper (Thai style curry btw) we added the Crispy Brussel sprouts as an addition. The snapper came out great -- soft, flavorful, and little sweet with a bit of a soft kick that complemented the coconut rice. Overall--it's one of the best spots on St Pete beach and would highly recommend.

    Great vibe, good value for your dollar and really good food. We were seated quickly and had a choice of outdoor on the veranda which was a bit more casual/beach vibe or indoor seating which was very nice but seemed a bit more formal. Our server Paul was the best. Very attentive and pleasant. We both ordered dinners which come with salad and homemade hummus with flatbread. The hummus was very tasty. We had coconut shrimp appetizer which was very good, four large shrimp served with house made zipping sauce. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection and the stuffed grouper was also a very good choice. Both entrees came with a house made potato in pastry puff, also very good. I would definitely recommend trying this place when in St Pete's Beach.

    My son and I ate dinner here this week while we were in the area. We had about a 10 minute wait to be seated, so not bad. While we were waiting outside, we were looking over the menu and another nice family that was walking by stopped us and said it was great and worth the wait. It had a nice relaxing outdoor setting where we sat. We started off with some pita crisps and a dip. It was very tasty. My son's meal came with a salad which he said was good. He also ordered the Chicken Alfredo with the chicken blackened, which was good. I ordered appetizers as my meal. I ordered the Coconut Shrimp and the Brussel Sprouts. I thoroughly enjoyed the Coconut Shrimp. The Brussel Sprouts were ok. It was a little too heavy on the soy sauce for my liking.

    Food was amazing! service was amazing! Location was perfect! The entrees came with a salad and bread crackers with hummus. Plenty of food. The tuna was amazing. It is one of their most sold items. 10/10 would come back!

    I have lived in the area for almost 8 years and always wanted to check out this place! Finally made it this past weekend, we waited about 10-15 mins for an outdoor table. Service was pretty good. My husband ordered the stuffed grouper and I got the cashew mahi mahi. Both were super flavorful and delicious! Only thing I didn't like was that there didn't appear to be a bar on the inside.

    Very good

    This place was excellent. I had blackened snapper and The Hubs had fra' diavolo pasta with shrimp and lobster. Our server was great. I believe his name was Dante. We sat on the patio and it was very comfortable. I even got a little of the sauce to take home because it was so delicious.

    This was actually our 2nd visit to Snapper's Sea Grill. We were here last year. I realized I did not leave a review. The food was good both times. Snapper's is right on the main st of St. Pete's Beach, Gulf Blvd. There is plenty of parking in the back. The entrance is shaded, makes it somewhat intimate. The trees provide nice cover for the outside seating area. The inside is small and dim. The tables have soft lighting. Our server greeted us immediately. He was friendly, efficient and attentive. Appetizer: 4 Jumbo Caribbean shrimp rolled in sweet coconut, flash fried with Chef's dipping sauce. It is a delicious app. The shrimp on this side of Florida are sweeter and fresher. Entrees: Fisherman's Platter - Fried jumbo shrimp, bay scallops and fish filet with Fries and slaw. My husband ordered double shrimp in place of the scallops. Everything is fried heaven. Orange Glazed Salmon - Asian inspired glaze, broiled Atlantic salmon over spinach bed with sticky rice. This was delicious. The salmon was so perfectly cooked, it melted in my mouth. The server bought out a decadent cheesecake with Happy Birthday and a candle on it. The entire experience was superb.

    Sweet potato fries app (parm on side)
    Jana J.

    This spot was DELICIOUS and absolutely impressed me at the price point! My husband and I came during the early dining special, and got 2 entrees and an app for under $50! We started with the sweet potato fries which were very thick--soft in the center with crispy edges which were great. The parm crème on the side tasted even better than I expected! My meal was the linguini Alfredo with jumbo shrimp. The Alfredo sauce was incredible!! This was my favorite part of the meal. The past was cooked perfectly. The shrimp was good but nothing spectacular in my opinion. My side salad was delicious with the balsamic vinaigrette! I loved this even more than I expected. Same with the key lime pie--this isn't a go-to for me, but it had just the right combination of sweet and tang, and the crust was the perfect texture. The perfect way to end the meal! My husbands' captains platter was delicious as well. The haddock was my favorite part! The flavor of their breading and fryer oil was very light, which made this meal even better than I expected. Even the fries which looked pretty average to me were crispier and tastier than I expected! The restaurant was smaller than I thought, and we got a table outside despite it being a little chilly, in order to avoid a 30 minute wait at 5pm on a Monday. We did enjoy the plastic enclosure that blocked out the wind, and heating lamps that helped with the cold. Our server did a great job for us as well--it was clear he didn't have many tables, so he checked on us often. I highly recommend this spot, and especially their early dinner special for an incredible deal!

    Nice outdoor  space

    This review is really a 4.5 , but it's not allowed. I really liked this restaurant, and I'm sure I'll return. The service was top notch (thanks Doug) and the outside porch is upscale, modern, and comfortable. The early bird offerings are really nice, and the portions were generous. I enjoyed the fried zucchini appetizer (perfect) , the house salad (surprisingly good), and the broiled captains platter. The fish tasted very fresh and the portion was great. A little sear or grill to the fish would have been a perfect score from me, but maybe that's a lot to expect at this price point.

    Patio
    Jaci S.

    The food was AMAZING...all around. The shrimp and scallops were cooked perfectly, so was the risotto. The mango chutney was fire on snapper. Even my son's pizza was good. Service was great. We had Mel-she was fantastic. She was always there with what we wanted/needed. We chose the patio. Warm day but the ambiance was chill even still. They have the see through curtains to stop the road noise and I think it helped a lot. Would def go back if we make it back to this area!

    Filet skewers and fried shrimp on kids' menu

    Potato puff pastry was amazing! It's a side dish but I'd go there again for that. Fried shrimp and filet skewers were really good too. My daughter liked the kid pasta with marinara. It actually has multiple kids menu options than the typical pizza and chicken fingers at every and any restaurant. Service was great. Nice ambience with outside seating available.

    What time is the early bird dinner served? It's not posted on their website

    Hi Madeline, the early bird dinners at Snappers is from 4:00-5:00 pm. Enjoy!

    Do they have Stone crab?

    I believe so, if it is in season.

    What time is the early dinner menu till?

    4-5:PM - get the Coconut nut crusted Mahi - it is amazing!

    Is there a kids menu?

    Yes there is a kids menu

    Does anyone know if there is a private room here that would fit 13 people?

    They do not have a private room but the dining area to the left as you enter the restaurant is divided by a short wall and that should work. Also, they have a large outside area that will accommodate. I would call them and discuss it. They will… 

    Does anyone know if there are long waits for Saturday night at Snappers in St Pete since they don't take reservations?

    There is a wait, but they have an outside beer and wine bar to help pass the time. I think normal wait is 20-30 minutes on weekends.

No wastage from open wine or over pouring. I have never seen a setup so perfect for both the consumer and the seller. But what really knocked my socks off was the food! The Study only has a cold kitchen but managed to produce a fantastic mini meatball and warm bread spread for $14 and a Medium St Helena Coterie board $25 that really hit home. I drank two glasses of an Argentinian wine. Wing Man Gary (USAF pilot, retired) is on his pain meds so could not partake. I made sure to drink his share of wine as well!

Basically everything I could ask for from a lounge. Plus, the owner was kind, helpful, knowledgable and attentive. The wine tap is a fun time. You receive a card and use that to fill your glass (1oz, 3oz and 6oz pours -- 1oz are discounted during happy hour). There's such a diverse variety of wines (more than two dozen), you could get lost in all of the good options. Something for all palates. I tried the small Sonoma board (which was discounted for happy hour) and it was a good-sized, cheese-focused board with solid combinations. the meat and cheeses come with cornichons, olives, and crackers. the caramelized balsamic onion jam was incredible with the sweet blueberry goat cheese and the spicy salami. It's definitely enough for a quick bite to soak up all the delicious wine. Wines I tried, remember & recommend (you truly can't go wrong): - Passione Sangue di Giuda dell'Oltrepo Pavese - Chateau Pilet Bordeaux - Sonoma-Cutrer Chardonnay the decor is vibrant, rustic and cozy. so much wood. even more art! And lots of different styles of seating including booths, leather chairs, bar seating and small tables. accommodating for lots of group sizes! They offer happy hour Monday-Friday and trivia on Tuesdays at 7pm. All around a vibe! Definitely worth checking out.

This is the kind of place that feels like it's been around forever, in the best way. Spacious for the area, lively without being chaotic, and backed by attentive service that keeps things moving even when it's busy. The menu is extensive, and then just when you think you've seen it all, there's a specials board tucked away with even more to choose from. If you can time your visit right, Tuesday is the move. They run a buy one pound, get one pound half off deal on snow crab legs, and it's easily one of the best values around. The snow crab legs are fresh and satisfying, and the Dungeness crab holds its own as well. Both pair perfectly with their rich, drawn butter, simple but done right. Portion sizes here are no joke. The shrimp skewers are almost excessive in the best way. Three skewers loaded with roughly eight shrimp each, so you're looking at around two dozen shrimp total, all a solid medium-large size. It's the kind of dish that makes you pause when it hits the table. The shrimp pasta is another standout and clearly a house favorite. It's packed with flavor and easily one of the more memorable dishes on the menu. Good enough that ordering a second one to-go actually makes sense. The clam chowder, though, was the one miss. While it's loaded with plenty of clam meat and has a hearty base, there's a slightly smoky flavor that throws it off. If you're a chowder fan, it might not hit the mark. Probably something to skip next time. As for the crab cakes, they passed a pretty tough test. A Maryland native at the table gave them a strong approval, which says a lot. Pro tip: Get there early, ideally around lunch, if you want to lock in that snow crab deal. It's popular, and you don't want to risk missing out. Overall, this is a reliable, crowd-pleasing seafood spot that leans into big portions, solid execution, and a relaxed coastal vibe. Whether you're a local or just visiting St. Pete Beach, it's an easy recommendation and definitely worth a return trip.
