The grouper nuggets were VERY small and VERY dry. Would not order again. Coconut shrimp was very good

Cool spot on the water for seafood. Don’t recommend the calamari. Most of the food was good but nothing was fantastic. Staff was very friendly.Kid-friendliness: Small kids menu and high chairs but no crayons or anything to make it fun for them

You might call Billy's Stone Crab a fine example of a moveable feast. Even though Billy Moore has relocated his restaurant from time to time, wherever he lands, the seafood --- especially the stone crab from October 15 to May 15 --- is first-rate. While the little delicacies can be pricey, they're also very tasty. The regular year-round menu offers typical Florida standards such as shrimp, sirloin, prime rib and crab-stuffed flounder. Lunch specials range from fish or chicken sandwiches to hot Cuban sandwiches. There are lots of hands-on food options, too, like onion rings and U-Peel-'em Shrimp. But there are more perks here than just food: the adjacent piano bar provides background music.
