Our guide to seafood restaurants in Tampa

Seafood restaurants range from fish shacks and oyster bars to upscale dining rooms and Cajun boil houses. What is on the menu depends heavily on the region: lobster rolls and clam chowder in New England, crab cakes in Maryland, shrimp and grits and fried catfish in the South, crawfish in Louisiana and salmon and Dungeness crab in the Pacific Northwest.

Market-price items change daily with the catch and the season, so it is worth asking about them before ordering. Many seafood restaurants post their fresh sheet on a board near the entrance.
