Editor’s picks

Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in Tampa Magazine. Updated July 2026.

Juno & The Peacock · St. Petersburg
Juno & The Peacock brings a polished seafood-forward menu to Beach Drive with oysters, fish, and composed contemporary plates. Begin with something raw or chilled, then choose a warmer preparation that handles Gulf ingredients differently. The lively dining room and adjacent cocktail program make the restaurant a natural anchor for an evening downtown.
Ocean Seven · Clearwater Beach
Ocean Seven serves seafood from an upper-floor Clearwater Beach dining room where the Gulf view naturally slows the evening. Order a fish preparation that keeps the main ingredient visible, then add a brighter starter for contrast. Sunset timing adds atmosphere, but the meal works more clearly when the table stays focused on seafood.
Oystercatchers · Rocky Point
Oystercatchers pairs a long-running Rocky Point dining room with bay views, oysters, fish, and Gulf Coast preparations. Start with oysters or another chilled item before choosing a grilled or roasted entree, and reserve enough daylight to appreciate the setting without letting the view replace attention to the plate.
Salt Shack On The Bay · Rocky Point
Salt Shack On The Bay is a dockside Tampa room where fish sandwiches, seafood plates, tropical drinks, and sunset traffic set a casual pace. Choose a straightforward local fish preparation and arrive before the busiest sunset window. The outdoor setting is strongest when the food order remains simple and timely.
Ocean Hai · Clearwater Beach
Ocean Hai brings Asian-influenced technique to seafood inside Clearwater Beach's Wyndham Grand, moving between sushi-adjacent starters, fish, and composed hotel dining. Build the meal from one bright opening dish and one cooked preparation, and ask which fish the kitchen is handling with particular confidence that evening.
