Phillippi Creek Oyster Bar

They have the best fish tacos—the other seafood also looked fantastic!

Super experience, super seafood. We went here after a beach day at Siesta Beach. This place has excellent reviews for a reason. The clam chowder was a close second only to my own homamde! - smokey, creamy, full of clams, bacon and very few potatoes, pricey but worth it. My combo platter of fish, scallops and shrimp was great, coleslaw was sweet and creamy not watery or vinegary, onion rings were thick and crisp, the wife's cold crab salad plate was fantastic and more than she could eat. Staff is super friendly. We will make this place a habit every time we visit Sarasota.

I have been patronizing this restaurant since at least 2010 when ever I'm in the area. It's still a wonderful venue but I was very disappointed this last visit with the steamed clam dish. All it was was steamed clams and a lot of uncooked celery pieces and very little broth. Blah!

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. We had the seafood boil. The flavor was amazing. My brother ordered the paella and said it was better than the one he had at Columbia. Our waiter Jesus was fantastic.

We loved eating out on the deck. The menu selection was wonderful..y husband had blackened fish and I had stuffed grouper. Both were well done and thoroughly enjoyed.

Fun place with a ton of fried seafood options. Ok tasting not special by any means. Good drinks and good service.

I ate their choice both meals were delicious but the second meal was fried food and could have been cooked a little more

Love everything about this place. Atmosphere is fun and family style. Indoor outdoor seating is plentiful, outdoor is on the water. If there is wait to be seated it’s worth it. Seafood dishes here are top tier, they have so many options and everything is SO fresh. Service is fast and prices are reasonable for the quality of food. We always come back here when visiting Sarasota. Dietary restrictions: A lot of vegetable options Parking: Gift shop located in the parking lot, cool stuff inside.
