Paula’s Favorite 5 Spots For Fresh Seafood In Tampa Bay
- The Seabreeze Island Grill and Raw Bar
Love this place on the water at 17855 Gulf Blvd, Redington Shores. The deep water red rock shrimp taste like lobster served with hot butter. The dish that keeps me coming back every weekend is the Sunburn Mussels, 2 pounds of fresh mussels served with a spicy red sauce to die for.
2. Council Oaks Steak House At The Hard Rock
They have a fresh Raw Bar Sampler with Lobster, Oysters, Shrimp and all things seafood, plus you can take a chance at gambling after dinner. I have to tell you where my secret slot machine is but there are so many new exciting changes at the Hard Rock, I almost got lost last time I was there. The Hard Rock has moved the non smoking room upstairs, so take the escalator upstairs and turn right. As soon as you pass into the second upstairs room, the Quick Hit Machines are right there. Good Luck!

3. Shells Seafood in St. Pete and Tampa
Bobby Rich was the one who turned me on to this delicious seafood stop. The shrimp pasta is a must and there’s enough to share or take home for another meal later. Bobby Rich has been to Shells so many times, they all know him by name and continue to partner with us on Undercover Office where we bring lunch to you for your entire office.

4. Big Ray’s Fish Camp on Interbay BLVD in Tampa
It’s no secret that Big Ray’s Fish Camp has one of the best Blackened Grouper Sandwiches around. It’s casual, delicious and a cool place to hang out. Other favorites here are the Lobster Ruben, Lobster Corn Roll or the Blackened Shrimp Burger. Plenty of outdoor seating and a great atmosphere.
5. Rusty Pelican, Rocky Point in Tampa
Upscale dining with fresh everything. Stone Crab season must. This is a great special date night destination. Try the fresh Swordfish that tastes like it came right off the boat or the seared Pan Scallops. You can request a window seat for your special night and have a fantastic view of Tampa Bay.
