Salt Shack On The Bay - Tampa

Great Lunch … fun atmosphere ! Loved the water view ? Staff was awesome ! Food was so good .. will definitely be back !

This place was recommended so we gave it a try. It was busy but we found seats outside next to the bar. The waiter was friendly but slow. What made matters worst was when he excused himself to talk to friends that showed up and somehow their food came out before ours. Speaking of food, I couldn't stomach the calamari and the lobster bisque, but they get 2 stars for taking it off the check. The liquor appears to be watered down, the bottom shelf variety Nice view, that's it. We were a party of four and everyone agreed this place is overrated

Visited in February mid afternoon to celebrate my birthday. Loved my experience eating here. The atmosphere is top notch. They have seating inside with a view of the water, or you can sit outside where you have a choice of sitting at picnic tables right by the water, or if you don't want to be in the sun, they have a pavilion with a bar area. I rate this a 4.5 because the food was good but I felt it was a tad pricey for the portion size. Service was kind of sporadic, however they were changing shifts. I loved the lobster bisque soup that I had and my grouper bites were really good. My son had the curry shrimp and he was a little disappointed because the tails were still on the shrimp, making it messy to eat and the portion was rather skimpy, not near enough pineapple in it. It was uncrowded mid afternoon but during busy times you can grab a cocktail and sit in a comfy chair around a fire pit to wait until your table is called. Also a landlocked boat that makes a great picture taking opportunity. Overall a fabulous experience and I will go back every time I'm in the area. I'm sure it's a great place to hang out and have cocktails while looking at the water!

Went here on a Tuesday night. Got drinks at the bar while waiting. There were dolphins!! Gorgeous evening. The appetizers were good, especially the ahi tuna. All of us got the catch of the day. It was good, not great. We had a table overlooking the water and the server was great!

I use to really like the Salt Shack rum runners. They changed the way they make it. Our table ordered 4 rum drinks. All of them were different. One was good three were bad, one was even made with coconut rum. I tried to call and ask if this was the new way. They do not answer their phone. One more chance
