Reviews for The Sea Hut in Palmetto, FL
What a huge surprise! We have lived in the Palmetto area for five years and passed The Sea Hut thinking it was just a bar with... typical bar food. We were very wrong! The food was incredible from the fried green tomatoes served in a bed of black beans andcorn with balsamic vinegar drizzle. Then the shrimp stuffed with crab cakes just danced on your tongue with flavor. Theseafood platter was top notch, particularly the scallops. The quaint gulf side restaurant was a great find, and Elizabeth, ourserver was superb with helping first timers navigate the menu. Read more
Only two stars because the staff was amazing. Cute decor and great location but it was beyond hot inside to where we were both... sweating. The freshly chucked oysters were slimy smelled/tasted terribly. There was a huge bug in one dish- see picture- andsome how a dry Martini ended up green and tasted like strait sour mix... Edit:: Thank you for your response, it is awesome toknow the owner cares enough? The platter that had the bug in it was taken off of of the bill, and I do appreciate that! Justsucks that half of the dish was already eaten by the time it was found. Unfortunately it was not brought to out attentionabout the AC being out, which would have absolutely changed my outlook in the situation had I known. I did make it known to oursuper amazing waitress that this was our first time there and, unfortunately I do not remember her name, but she was amazing andhad a great attitude! Thank you again for your reply. Read more
Absolutely delectable! Had the mouth watering crab imperial and a bowl of the vibrant, flavorful 3 crab soup. Great service and... great food at reasonable prices. Can't wait to go back! Read more
When we entered the place, it smelled like bathroom, very stinky smell. We ordered raw oysters, it was really small and not... fresh at all. Not worth the price. Steak was tasteless, no flavor in it at all, and very oily. The corn cheese dip was nasty,like leftover food put together. The only good thing about it was our waitress, she was polite. Read more
Very disappointed! Won?t be back! Super small portions. Example stuffed mushrooms was mostly a ?stuffing-filler? and a super... small bite of mushroom. Now when you advertise crab stuffed mushroom that?s what you expect. Crab cake? One super small ?patty?for $13.00. Staff seemed very nice. But good to pricey for the portions in my experience Read more
The staff were very nice and friendly. In the image is the shareable large plate were you pick 3 entrees and two sides. It was... decent. The raw oysters were delicious. I would recommend. Read more
An excellent beach restaurant with a very interesting gastronomic proposal. The atmosphere of the place is excellent, with... thousands of details that simulate a Hawaiian bar and create a very beautiful atmosphere. The food is excellent, they have awide variety of seafood and also some very difficult to find options such as gator or frog legs (in fact this is the only placewhere I found them in the whole area). Although they are prepared only fried, the flavor is felt and they are very wellseasoned, just enough not to cover the flavor of the meat. The attention is good, it does not stand out but it is good and itcomplies with a good service. Ideal to go with the family Read more
I have driven by this place so many times I can't remember without stopping in. OK, so it is not that appealing from the street... but don't let that fool you, the food is great. No Asian fusion and all of that other nonsense, just good Florida seafood. Allthe tried and true basic good dishes you would expect from a good old fashioned Florida restaurant. We had the whole belly friedclams and the Crab Imperial. Both well prepared and delicious and the sides were good as well. Worth the trip to Palmetto ifyou haven't been there before. Oh, a special note to Gwen, the lavender hair waitress who was so friendly and made our diningexperience so much the better. We will return! Read more
