Reviews for Captain Bill's Oyster Bar in Treasure Island, FL
We were visiting friends who were staying on Treasure Island and randomly stumbled upon this place. We were immediately seated,... our waiter was nice and provided us with the daily specials. We ordered quite a bit of food, starting off with the oysters,smoked salmon dip, hush puppies, and coconut shrimp. If you like bloody marys, order one! They're grand in taste and indisplay (bacon, lots of olives and a salt rim). Overall, service was good, food was great and we left there very satisfied. Read more
Came in for the blackened shrimp or fish tacos listed on Google. They don't have them anymore. They said they've tried updating... Google. Cup of Jambalaya was fantastic. Great flavor. A little on the mushy side but didn't bother me. Menu says Jambalaya withShrimp. The shrimp are those tiny, no flavor ones so if the shrimp is your deciding factor, you should probably pass. Also had ahalf order of crab legs (full order 4 claws $82.99, no sides). They were good but on the smaller side and overpriced in myopinion. One claw was on great shape, other claw 3 legs were broken, one completely broken off. Not really what I would normallypay $40ish for. Service was fantastic. Very friendly and attentive. Would definitely go back. Read more
A staple every time we come to Treasure Island. The chargrilled oysters never disappoint. We ordered the grouper bites, and they... were unbelievably melting in our mouths! The red snapper was the catch of the day and that was phenomenal as well. My husbandordered the chargrilled A shrimp and the coconut rice is always delicious! The gentleman that shucks the oysters has been thereevery year we come here, and who knows, he may be Capt. Bill! However, would be great to see some diversity in the wait staff. Amust if you are a oyster and/or seafood lover while visiting Treasure Island. Read more
First time a Captain Bill's date night with Hubby good can't say anything bad the services was good, and the Chef even came out... to the table and check how everything was, Love that. With that said have to go back to for second time with Family and it was13 of use and the kids were their. All I have to say the chef came out again to check on the table amazing love it. I have tosay that keeps me coming back not only for the drinks or the food but the services is 100% on point. Queen Read more
Great place! We stopped by purely by chance - my partner wanted ?some oysters? and this place is made for it! Friendly and... helpful stuff, got to talk to the Chef making rounds around the restaurant checking on guests, there was a live music in thebackground, we had a bunch of drinks and p e r f e c t l y cooked green asparagus.

Living in St Pete we typically stay away from the tourist areas, but a visiting friend recommended Captain Bills after they... tried it on their vacation. We chose the outdoor seating, but the interior seemed nice. They had some live music happening(Sunday afternoon- not sure if that is a regular thing). Our server was very nice and provided info about the restaurant(locally owned small businesses- YES!) and they strive to source as much fresh food locally as they can (another bonus!). Wegot there for happy hour and had the special jalapeño margarita (perfectly balanced with lime for a zippy drink, but notoverpowering jalapeño) and the ceviche. I?d skip the ceviche next time as the portion was small even for happy hour price. Iordered the blackened grouper and the other half got the steak. When in FL you can?t go wrong with grouper in my opinion. YUMand the $26 provided a generous portion of fresh grouper, incredibly fresh green beans, and coconut rice. We were told the ownerhand cuts the steak every morning- it was perfectly seasoned and cooked as ordered. It was served with skins on truffle oil andgarlic petite potatoes cooked to golden perfection and the fresh green beans. Our server ?tricked? us into trying thecheesecake sampler dessert which was decadent, but small enough where I didn?t feel TOO guilty for eating it- ha ha ha? We?llrecommend Captain Bill?s to visiting friends in the future and I?m sure we?ll head out to the beach side for a nice meal againin the future. Read more

Visited while on vacation at a nearby hotel. Everything was delicious. Especially the crab cake, reminded me more of a pancake... shape, wish I could have one now. It was so good!! Also had oysters, fish spread, fried grouper, shrimp ceviche and boiledshrimp. Everything was great. No wait. We went right at opening time. Would recommend. Read more
