I'm not sure about the other food reviews, but our experience with food was amazing. The raw oysters were some of these best. the snow crab was flavorful, fish and chips were good, and the tuna app was good. Service could have been a little better as we didn't get checked on often once food came and there was a mistake on the bill, but the waitress was nice. Beer is cold, and wife liked her Dirty Martini. Feels like a lake restaurant with views of Blind Pass Waterway. Great place for sunsets with the outdoor seating.
Food was terrific (burger, oysters, shrimp po boy, crab chowder). Our server was very friendly and shared recommendations for site seeing for us. Fries were the real deal- fresh cut!
Oyster Shuckers is a fantastic spot! The view is absolutely stunning, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. They even have a free pool table, which is unmatched—it's a single table but adds a fun and chill vibe to the place. The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, and the staff is accommodating, making sure you have a great experience. Whether you're here for the view, the pool, or the friendly service, Oyster Shuckers is definitely worth a visit!
We quite literally planned our vacation this year to ensure we could eat here twice for the all you can eat crab legs. The staff is always there welcoming, their sweet tea is some of the best out here, and the crab legs are our favorites. If you’re looking for an appetizer, the chicken wings are great, and so is the quesadilla. If you’re not a crab legs fan, the BLT is a great option! They have a wide variety of alcoholic beverages as well, we just stick to sweet tea and crab legs. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We typically choose outdoor for the breeze and ocean view.
Had an amazing experience at Oyster Shucker Craft & Draft in St. Pete! The view of the ocean was fantastic, creating the perfect backdrop for a great meal. I ordered the Corey Ave burger, which was incredibly unique—made with a flavorful blend of ground chuck, brisket, and short ribs. It was cooked perfectly and paired with crispy, delicious fries. The atmosphere had a great local vibe, and the service was top-notch—friendly and attentive. The beer was ice-cold, and I loved the covered outdoor patio for a relaxed dining experience. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area!
My wife Maggi and I stopped in to Oyster Shucker yesterday while riding bicycles. What a view, we sat outside on the rail, I had a couple of beers, half dozen Oysters, Maggi ordered Pino and Grouper Tacos. We are so happy we found another happy place. I urge you to give this place a try. We Love It!
A great joint to hang out with family and friends, sea food was fresh, hot and prepared to perfection! The beers were cold and refreshing, and our Waitress/bartender was a fast friend and could become family any day! We had such a good experience!
We’ve been coming here for about a year and this place is absolutely amazing! We go every Monday for Burger and fries and we also bring our dogs...they are so good with them, they make sure they have dishes of water and scraps when available. This is definitely the best restaurant in this area. The food is fantastic!! Definitely recommend.
