Anna Maria Oyster Bar Ellenton

Overall Great Dinning experience as first time customers. We sat out along the lake in the back (outside) and service was fantastic. Food proportions were large. We had a dozen (larger than average) raw oysters and the catfish and fish and chips. We plan on returning soon. Way better dinning experience and service than that new seafood place right across the street.

A great place good seafood, we have been eating here for 10 years. Service and staff are always helpful and efficient. Lighter Bites menu available for early birds. Prices reflect the current economy. Still a favorite place to eat!

Kaboom ship and catfish platter hot & delicious! Great outdoor ambience with birds chirping and lake view even for lunch mid-July! Shaded with fans blowing. Wait staff friendly, attentive & fast. Prices reasonable. Next time we will try oysters.

I love this place. They have the best service and best food. I have went to other locations and they are CONSISTENT. I went today and it was still the same. Dallas, our server, was very nice and recommended what she thought was best. For example, if you can’t decide between a lobster bisque and clam chowder just ask them to mix it. Also, she knew the menu very well and explained them thoroughly. I’ll always come back to this place when I’m in the area.

I'm in town for work and happened upon gem.This place has great food and great service. My server's name was Lauren and she was very attentive even after she was given a table of 8. Lauren spoke very positively about working here, management and her overall satisfaction with being employed here. That says so much about this restaurants character and morals when employees feel this way. Hearing an employee complain about their employer sometimes dampens the experience. Not the case here and I was delighted to hear how well this restaurant treated their employees. I ordered calamari and raw oysters. The sauce for the calamari was great. So many restaurants serve sub par sauce which ruins the calamari. This was definitely not the case here. My oysters were fresh and came with every condiment I needed to enjoy them. The atmosphere was exactly what I want from an oyster bar. I found my go to place in Ellenton.
