$ŦEPҤλ₦łE VJuly 9, 2012unique casual dining experience at Sea Critters Café located on the waterfront on historic Pass-A-Grille, St Pete Beach, Florida, a slice of tropical Parrot-head paradise.
Justin LisenbyApril 28, 2018Great seafood. Fast and friendly service. Nice relaxing dock to eat outside on.
Benjamin 🚀April 16, 2015Quirky and cool with a slice of casual! Grab a few seats at the bar to skip the que waiting 😄🇺🇸.
Mary SpiritoDecember 3, 2014Share the calamari - it's great & has a sweet/sour dipping sauce as opposed to traditional marinara. Bloody Mary was nice & spicy
Juan Pedro Di PoloAugust 8, 2014Really nice place with one of the best Lobster Rolls ever. We stop in our way back to Miami and wanted to stay the whole afternoon.
Simon AndersonMay 27, 2016Good food and service, but make sure you ask what the market price is before you order. We found out the grouper was $25.99!- Eva 🐾 BanovaOctober 26, 2015Lobster Pasta and Scallops Rockefeller are awesome. Will pas on the drinks next time
Camille FournierMarch 23, 2022Fresh fish sandwich was delicious, avoid the mojito which was mostly sour mix- Georgiana GonzalezAugust 8, 2014Very fresh fish. Groupper Reuben sandwich and the lobster roll are delicious.
Wendy RosenSeptember 5, 2010My plan for a perfect day... beach at 8am, Nancy Markoe Gallery then on to lunch at Critters... the Grilled Grouper sandwich (hold the bread) and a "friendly Wendy" from the bar.
