It was our second time there, just amazing! Food, service and atmosphere was 10/10. Our server Audrey was very attentive and cool! Kaboom shrimp and fish tacos are a must try! We were very full but dessert could not be missing, they all looked delicious. But we ordered the salted caramel cheesecake, so good! It was the perfect date, and great experience!

Came in for dinner and had a minimal wait. Decor is beautiful and I love the outdoor bar. Our server was awesome, so friendly and knowledgeable. We started with the coconut shrimp. They were small and overly fried and dark. Had the clam chowder which had great flavor but was far too watery, needed to be much thicker for a chowder. I had the swordfish which was flavorful and moist. The side of red potato’s were really bland. I hope the food improves because I loved the atmosphere and service. Will give it time before I return.

We have eaten at all of the Anna Maria Oyster Bar locations multiple times and were excited to try this newest one. (you should give out pins per location to get people to try them all! )

An amazing experience! The bartender didn’t have a gin cocktail on the menu, but I told her to have fun. She made me a delicious Blackberry Bramble and it was so good I ordered another. Lively atmosphere, fantastic food, and a great place to stop into if you’re shopping.

My first time at this location but not at AMOB. The differences between the locations is extremely noticeable. This one has a glass wall so you can see into the kitchen (and assuming you want to) and watch the things you normally cannot.

New store just opened. Excellent location. Beautifully designed- cozy, modern island feel. Food is excellent. Pricing is very good. Grab a world famous margarita. And, don’t be afraid to try the baby back ribs. They’re awesome.

Overall outstanding- had the calamari (prefer it with a Thai Chili Sauce) comes with marinara, the oysters were delicious, Gulf from Louisiana and the Cobia Tacos – with slaw and chips. The service was great Devin did a great job.

Always a great place to take the kids. Our kids like the food—one gets mac and cheese and the other gets the popcorn shrimp. The mac and cheese looks like Kraft, so I know they will eat it all. This was the second time we’ve been there and both times the kids meal price is based on the height of the child. So if they are 40 inches tall, the meal is $0.40.
