Backwaters - Clearwater (FL)

5 /5 Maria Korac: We were looking for a place to eat during happy hour. We read along the way that this was the best, so we decided to give it a try. The place has a magnificent view. I liked the food; the calamari and shrimp were good. The mini burgers had really good meat. I was thrilled. Since we still had some space, we decided to get the nachos, and I have to say they were very tasty. I cant confirm that its the best because I havent tried any others in the area, but I was satisfied, and the signs at the entrance confirm this. Go and enjoy.

5 /5 Patrick Ault: Visited in June. It was our 2nd time. The steak was just as good 4 years later. Honestly, maybe the best strip that Ive ever had. My wife enjoyed the crab cakes very much. Service was great. Its nice sitting outside and looking over the water. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. The price point is nice as well. Thank you for the great food and memories.

5 /5 Julia Gaines: I would definitely recommend coming to this restaurant. We went there for their happy hour for oysters and a dozen oysters was only $16. The oysters were fresh. The view was really nice. We also had some martinis that were good. If you just stick to the happy hour, you’ll be really happy with the deal you got and everything. I got two roses. That were a little bit more expensive. I didn’t think that the wine was really worthwhile. So next time I’ll just order something else and I’m sure I’ll be extremely happy. The service was really good brought us every sauce we wanted Overall if you want to get some oysters I would definitely recommend coming here to see this amazing view. You can watch people pulling out on these crazy jet skis it looks like Ferraris you have to go watch it. Also, while we were enjoying our oysters and our drinks, we did see a lot of wildlife such as stingrays, jumping out of the water and that was really cool.

5 /5 Barbara Snapp: The restaurant was fairly busy even though it was off season. We didnt sit outside because of seasonal allergies but were placed at a table with a view. My dining partner and I both ordered the Mahi Mahi with seasonal vegetables (carrots and green beans) and a baked potato. It was delicious. So delicious we want to go back. Tonja was our waitstaff and she was a hoot. She made the whole experience even more enjoyable despite the general loudness of the restaurant (not helped by the loud and rambunctious table next to us). We intend to return and ask for Tonjas table before we complete our business trip.

5 /5 Carly Davis: Last night was the last night of our trip and we are so glad we stumbled upon this hidden gem. It was an impromptu celebration for my son’s 15th birthday and between the incredible food and the exceptional, kind service from Michelle it was the best meal of our vacation. Not to mention our table was directly over the water. Filet mignon, ribeye, crab cake, seafood salad highly recommended. Thanks guys for taking us in a pinch!
