Morgs ॐOctober 8, 2016BEST she-crab soup you could ever imagine. We drive 3 hours just to go to dinner here. Lovely atmosphere right on the ocean - so beautiful and such nice people!- Lynn KorsunApril 12, 2013I have severe allergies and Frenchy's was absolutely wonderful in accommodating my needs. Definitely recommend the shrimp fajitas and the grouper sandwich!!
- Julia PileApril 16, 2016Food was very good. Huge portions. Very easily could have split a meal with having an appetizer. We had the Grouper Sandwich and Grouper
Fabulous place to get grouper sandwiches and beer. One of our favorite hangouts on Clearwater Beach.
Eddie LorenzoMay 9, 2021The seafood platter is great. Go early Ifyou want to eat on time or you will wait over an hour. Grouper nuggets are excellent
- The only place on the beach with Cracked Conch, great Grouper Nuggets and I love the Turkey Ruben..
- Chris NeerFebruary 24, 2019Lobster tail is big & very tasty! Also conch fritters & the garlic crab fries are great!!
Steven SantarpiaMay 1, 2013Great service and atmosphere at this restaurant. Oysters, Grouper, scallops and shrimp very disappointing. Best thing on my plate was the corn on the cob. But nice vibe inside place.
lauren dordalMarch 15, 2014Small town, beachy feel w/ fast service & good food. Tried the Yellow Fin Tuna sandwich, encrusted in wasabi - powerful & tasty!
Lee BufordJuly 18, 2014Great food and beach atmosphere! Grouper is the specialty, but each Frenchy's location has unique menu items. Always good!
Matt CasonNovember 19, 2013Great food and staff and outdoor atmosphere. Not as nice of location/view and some of their others, but still really good.
Dine Tampa BayJuly 23, 2013Come out and enjoy Frenchy's Saltwater Cafe August 16-30th, 2013 during the annual Dine Tampa Bay Restaurant Week! Enjoy amazing Prix Fixe Menu options for only $25!
Frenchy'sJuly 28, 2011If you're out on the boat, try the Dockside-To-Go service. Call in your order at 727-461-6295, come to the floating dock at on East Shore Dr. and it'll be right out to ya!
Brian MillerDecember 8, 2015Go see Chelsea! See is the best bartender or server you can get, hands down! Food is excellent also.
Erik HJuly 8, 2017Order the Red Royal shrimp. Only place for better is The Freezer in Homosassa Springs.
Rafi WazirJuly 14, 2012Frenchy's seafood medley is excellent! Try it cajun with fries and seasonal veggies.
- Eyad AlhaririDecember 22, 2013Tacky place .... Food is damn good though and the grouper sandwich is yummy !
Andrew NawoichikApril 17, 2010This location is not on the beach. Great outside sitting in the parking lot. Recommended the Greek style octopus.
dominic schmittJanuary 10, 2012Stone crabs cold. Careful not to cut up your hands. Get the mediums, not large. Actually more meat on the mediums.
Christy MunozDecember 25, 2015Don't get the Shrimp tacos. Two small tacos on a flour tortilla with 3 small shrimps in each loaded with lettuce. Will not fill you up. Service was good though.

"A beachfront bar for tourists and the locals love it too! Dine in or do a take out (to the beach), but you cannot skip the grouper sandwich, garlic crab fries, & fish spread. Beach day complete!"

"Great sushi bar here and accessible by boat - not on Clearwater Beach though - it's on Island Estates and part of the Salt Rock Grill / Rumba owners - a more upscale experience"
