For someone who isn't huge on seafood, I couldn't recommend the Korean BBQ beef more. It was nearly a 10/10. I learned after that the owner of the returns is from Korea, and you can definitely tell. Would come back time and time again for this meal. read more

Steamboat Grill hit the spot for a casual shrimp po' boy. The bread was nicely toasted, the shrimp were hot, crispy, and well-seasoned, and the sauce tied everything together without overpowering the seafood. Service was friendly and quick even with a busy dining room. I'd definitely order the shrimp po' boy again. read more

The place was pretty busy, which gave it a nice, laid-back local vibe. Our server was excellent--polite, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout our visit. That said, we did run into an issue with the food. We ordered the fried popcorn shrimp, and while they looked well cooked, the flavor was noticeably off. After trying a couple each, both my wife and I picked up a strong metallic/ammonia taste. My wife initially described it as freezer-burned. We let our server know that we didn't want the dish because something didn't taste right. She apologized, which we appreciated. A few minutes later, the owner came to our table--bringing the plate with her--to explain that the shrimp weren't freezer-burned since they're breaded in-house. While we understood her point, the taste was still clearly off to us. It was also a bit surprising that the plate was brought back to the table during that conversation in a crowded restaurant. They did offer to replace the dish or bring something else, but we chose to pass. Overall, great service and atmosphere, but the experience with that dish left us hesitant. Go to Coastal Cafe by Reel'em In their food is top notch. read more

Grouper Special (2/5): This tasted like bad banquet food. The gravy was overwhelming and not good. The fried grouper was fine but fairly tasteless. I did like the fried grits cake though. I would get just that again. RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Need to get this again) 4 - Good (Would get this again) 3 - Ok (Might give this another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this) read more

This place is really a little gem in my opinion. Service was great and the staff here is very friendly. Food was great too and portions were large so had plenty to take home for lunch the next day. If staying in the area you need to check this place out! read more

Super friendly and attentive staff. Very laidback atmosphere, we came here pretty much every day we were in town. They have the best crab legs in the area. Peel and eat shrimp and the Korean bbq were also great. read more

Service was fantastic, I personally like the "hole in the wall atmosphere" place was not packed so it was a little concerning but warm welcoming staff. The food was average, not bad, but nothing amazing. When you are tired of eating at all the "fancy" places in the area and just want a good ole hometown bar, this would be your spot. Fried pickles were good, lumpia- for people who are trying it for the first time will like it; however, this is not true lumpia. Everything had a good portion size and all was reasonably priced considering the area. read more

Everything was great! The service was amazing and the food was delicious! It's not a fancy place but it definitely has atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to people who are looking for beachy atmosphere and great food! read more

Worst seafood I have ever had crazy high prices for horrible food and the fries are barley cooked go somewhere else not here

Exactly what you want in a casual sports bar! Great atmosphere, plenty of screens to catch the game, solid drinks, and friendly service. Perfect spot to hang out with friends and grab a bite while watching your favorite team read more

Nice laid-back atmosphere The snow crab was incredible. Friendly service and nice drink specials.

Good food,good service and draft beer. We split the Seafood Platter...more than enough for a normal sized couple.

Everything was delicious from lumpia to fried green beans to grilled shrimp to the ice cold beer. Oh & the hush puppies & Kayla was a great server! I forgot to take pictures of the food. Cute vibe inside. Full bar. We will be back! read more

We got in with no wait which was really nice. Service was great. Atmosphere was good too. The food was just okay though. We had the crawfish étouffée, shrimp po' boy, and crawfish po' boy. read more

Enjoyed sitting outside, they have a nice covered area with ceiling fans. Had the oyster Rockefeller, yum!! And seafood gumbo, yum yum!

i am very unsatisfied with the service. i took my large family with me and we didnt even get drinks after an hour. Keep in mind it was barely full. Just imagine how long it would take if it was full. This restaurant just lost potential customers. NEVER AGAIN!! do not come here EVER. read more

Steamboat Grill is a go as you are and kick back kind of place if that's what you're up for. Frozen mugs, cold beer and salty oysters - what more could you ask for. Love the 30A restaurant accessibility in December compared to July any day...no waiting, great service and everyone's glad to see ya'...worth a visit. read more

Absolutely the best value on 30a. Top notch service and delicious food! We visit every time we are in town.

The steamboat burger was great the fries were amazing and the grilled cheese was the best according to my brother. read more

5 STARS ALL THE WAY! WE'LL BE BACK TO EAT HERE AGAIN. Not sure why this restaurant doesn't have a higher rating. We arrived at 8pm on a balmy night. There was ample seating inside and out. We were a large party and sat outside. We ordered a lot of items. Service was acceptable. The appetizers were excellent. We tried raw oysters and Oysters Rockefeller. Both were wonderfully prepared and presented. The sandwiches were large and delicious. The linguine with shrimp was some of the best we've eaten anywhere...certainly better than the Italian restaurant we tried a couple of days ago. read more

For the double the price of Red Lobster I was expecting double the quality if not more and instead I feel I received less. Far less. Perhaps I should have stuck to the local favorite appetizers which seemed to be what people came into on the bar to order. The flavor was a bland and the butter sauce was more oil than butter. I don't see myself eating there again though the service was Excellent. read more

I stopped for lunch on my way out of town. I was excited to see fried pork chops as the daily special. I was suggested this place by a friend who said they have great lumpia. That part I do agree with. My friend pork chop had a shake and bake type texture that I did not enjoy. The green beans had zero flavor. I had to add salt and pepper. The potatoes served with the special were extra greasy and the it was served with sausage gravy. What a weird combination. No one really seemed to care if I was there or not. Again the lumpia was fabulous but that would be what I would order if I chose to come back. Unfortunately overall not a great experience. read more

Came here over the weekend to get in a family dinner before heading back home. We had 5 adults and 3 kids, so they had stuff for everyone. This is my third time here to the area, and each time we have eaten here once. Every time it was delicious. Katy was our server and handled our group well. Professional, friendly, and helpful with whatever we needed. We started with two apps- the crispy shrimp and the crab balls. Both are good, but the crab balls are really tasty. They came with a remoulade that reminded me of a cajun thousand island (putting it in least common denominator form) but it went well with the app as well as some of the fries. The kids got a bunch of different items, a corn dog, and popcorn shrimp, all with fries- well executed. The big ticket items were all amazing. Parents got the grouper special, two for 45.99 with a side of veggies, jalapeno grit cake, and cajun rice. They enjoyed it so much that the plates were basically clean, which is amazing for them. Also said the gumbo was pretty tasty also. I had the fish and chips. After the appetizers I didn't think I was going to be able to eat much but I ate all the fish- 4 pieces, all crispy and delicious. Comes with fries, cole slaw and 3 hush puppies. All in all, people were very pleased with the dinner here. I have been here enough to recognize that this has survived over the years because of perfect execution on meals and good service. Parking out front when it's busy is tough, but sometimes you get lucky and can get in. With a group of 8, there was one square table that could accommodate us so again, they know what they're doing. Thank you to Katy for a great meal! Support small businesses! read more

I never thought i'd make a yelp account but I had to after this experience. this was probaly the worst dining experience of my life. Food was way over priced and not good. The service completely sucked and the waitress had an attitude the entire time towards us. Please never take your family or friends here. And I mean this very sincerely. read more

Food was amazing! Centrally located on 30A. A different vibe from some of the other restaurants, but definitely one of the best.

Best fried shrimp on 30a!!! The rest of the menu worth the taste test!!!!! You will not be disappointed bar and kitchen staff aims to get you fed quickly! read more

Food (fish) in Florida is one of our favorite parts of vaca. We have eaten at Steamboat almost every year since they opened. Tonight might be the last time. $32ish for 4 small pieces of fish?? But it ended up ok because the fish had NO flavor! We often split meals and did this one but we were shocked at the lack of food, more shocked by no flavor. Very disappointing!! There are too many great restaurants to waste our time and $$ again! read more
