The Best Restaurants in St. Petersburg–Clearwater - AFAR
"A downtown seafood-and-wine restaurant distinguished by a dramatic 22-foot-tall wine cellar stocked with over 4,000 bottles and an 80-foot raw bar showcasing oysters, king crab, and shrimp. Under chef Fabrizio Aielli, the kitchen highlights Florida seafood and produce and employs more than 130 sea salts from around the world; sample dishes have included pasta with king crab and caviar and snapper with burrata whipped potatoes and wild mushroom ragu. A happy hour (3–6 p.m.) offers discounted bar bites such as fish tacos, tuna sliders, and an Angus burger with applewood-smoked bacon and gorgonzola." - Susan B. Barnes
