My family and I just spent 7 wonderful days in Madeira Beach. We ate at the Friendly Fisherman twice. Once for lunch and once for dinner. We loved the food and the service was great. We loved the fritters and I miss the Boardwalk Salad already!!
We watched dolphins swimming in the bay from our table!
If you are visiting Madeira Beach I would suggest stopping by there for at least one meal.

This was our first stop for dinner at the beach. My husband got the cajun grouper and I got one that was stuffed with crab. It wasn't bad, but the hollindaise on mine was more greasy than creamy. The service was adequte, but we overheard the waitress telling the table next to us that they couldn't use the (still valid) coupon for a free soft drink. I'm not sure where, but it seems like there's probably better sea food out there.

I took my wife & kids there figuring it would be a good time as the previous occasions have been quite good.

Once upon being seated, the hostess in a somewhat rude undertone said "Make sure that car seat doesn't block the aisle".

Which it wasn't.

The food was OK, but not worth writing home about.

Seems to me like the friendliness has gone downhill since I ate there last.

However it may just have been an off day. Everybody has them!

“Grouper was great!”

Seafood was fresh, kid friendly, we liked the location and decor, we ate on the 2nd level. The only downfall is they counted our family of 6 (kids 12, 9, 7, 4) as a party of six which automatically adds an 18% tip. Ouch! I didn't even get to decide if the service was worth it or not.

Have always had a good meal here-the fish and seafood have always been the freshest and can't beat the sampler plate for quality and price!
One of our favorite seafood places outside of Maine.
