Some of the best scallops and shrimp I’ve had in a very long time! Waiter was friendly and shared most popular meals! The Tarter sauce was homemade and delicious!!!

We came into town to watch the sunset and wanted to grab a bite after. The atmosphere was laid back and relaxing. I couldn’t rave enough about their Grouper sandwich. I’ll definitely be back to get it again. I highly recommend adding this to your list of stops.

Food, drinks and atmosphere top notch! Try the grouper, prepared in a few optional ways. Their drinks are very good and refreshing… Lots of specialties. Even starting their brand “passport to paradise” cocktail challenge. Free t-shirt here we come! Very friendly staff and kind with the suggestions. Cheers!

My family’s favorite Frenchy’s restaurant. Never fails to please unless you need air conditioning while you eat… You can eat inside but you lose the atmosphere. Great place to eat!

Great food just off the main drag near Clearwater beach. Place was crowded, but we were seated quickly. Service was good. Food was very tasty and fresh. Beer battered crab fries were definitely interesting and tasty! Tequila lime tacos were awesome. Grouper nuggets were fresh and lightly battered. Awesome place!

It’s hidden behind CVS, part of the Frenchy’s chain that has 6 restaurants in the area. Hailey was my server & she was friendly & attentive. Food was good, just like at their other location I visited Rockaway grill. Had steamed clams, BBQ wings & corn on the cob. Prices are very reasonable. Plenty of seating & parking which was free. Also had a bar. There was outdoor seating in the back & the seating area when you first walk in was an open style, no windows. Definitely worth stopping at. There was no wait when I went it was about 5:30 pm.

First Frenchy’s we visited on the first night in town. It was later in the evening not very crowed at all, but took quite a long time to be attended too after we got seated. Stag was was not near as friendly as the beach side Frenchy’s. But the food was just as good.I had the famous grouper sandwich and Dana had coconut shrimp both were excellent!

It is a really good recommendation found on google. Crab fries are the best of all the things we ordered it is definitely a must try. The corn on the cob and the coconut shrimp tasted amazing too. I wouldn’t recommend jalapeños hush puppies, they don’t seem to be up to the mark. The waiter was really friendly and suggested us to try the char grilled oysters. It was our first time trying oysters and I am glad that we tried it at this place.

Overall the food was ok. The crab fries (not pictured) & the drinks were really good. Service from kitchen was really fast. Not much parking on actual property.
