Everyone is trying to support local right now, and everyone is also trying to cut their spending. Thanks to one of our St. Pete Beach favorites, you can do both.<\/p>\n

For more than 30 years, Snappers Sea Grill has been a staple for steak and seafood lovers. Owned by a local fisherman, the quality shines in every bite, a big reason it was recently voted Best Beach Restaurant in Pinellas County.<\/p>\n

Today, it\u2019s time to shine a light on what may be the best-kept secret on St. Pete Beach: the early bird dinner at Snappers.<\/a><\/p>\n

Whether it\u2019s a special occasion or a midweek night out, Snappers\u2019 early-bird dinner is not to be missed. The special runs from 4-5 pm every day (including weekends!), and it may just be the best deal on the beaches. In fact, they\u2019ve been voted back-to-back finalists for Best Early Bird Dinner by the Tampa Bay Times\u2019 Best of the Best- not to mention also being back-to-back finalists for Best Beach Restaurant and Best Seafood Restaurant.<\/p>\n

Plenty of restaurants offer specials, this fresh-catch favorite goes further, featuring an entire menu of seafood entrees and three different pasta dishes during early-bird dinner.<\/p>\n

You can stop in for just a quick snack and a drink \u2013 the jumbo coconut shrimp plate for $9.95 will satisfy your hunger craving any day of the week. The beef tenderloin satay, served with a Thai peanut sauce, is a must-try, as well. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re truly hungry, the early bird entrees are the way to go. In addition to the main dish, every entree also comes with a house salad, coffee or iced tea, and a petite slice of key lime pie to finish it off. With 11 entree options under $20, it\u2019s an unbeatable dinner deal. Our go-to is the Captain\u2019s Platter for $15.95 \u2013 all of the previously mentioned inclusions, plus broiled or fried jumbo shrimp, bay scallops, and a fish filet.<\/p>\n

Even the lobster tail dinner is a steal \u2013 7 ounces of warm water lobster tail with all the accoutrements for just $28.95. The salmon dinner \u2013 broiled and glazed, served atop coconut rice \u2013 is an absolute star with a salad, drink and piece of pie for $18.95.<\/p>\n

For pasta lovers, enjoy Alfredo Linguine with your choice of blackened chicken, jumbo shrimp, or salmon \u2013 all with salad, pie, and a cold drink. <\/p>\n

Snappers Sea Grill is a culinary star on St. Pete Beach<\/p>\n

Of course, there\u2019s plenty of reason to visit after 5, too. Snappers has been a go-to for locals and tourists alike since opening all the way back in the 1990s. As the streets and beaches around Snappers have changed and grown, the upscale grill has retained the same character and high standards that have made it so popular. Most importantly, the celebrated restaurant serves fresh-caught seafood and in-house aged prime steak every day, the stars behind their meticulously crafted menu.<\/p>\n

The sister restaurant of 1200 Chophouse, Snappers combines modern takes on seafood classics with a \u201cBig City atmosphere,\u201d creating a casual elegance in a can\u2019t-miss dining experience. Owned by a local fisherman, fresh seafood is, of course, the biggest highlight of the menu at Snappers. However, their in-house aged prime steaks have some serious star power on their own, and their delectable house-made desserts are downright unskippable.<\/p>\n

Pair any of it with a glass of wine, and you\u2019re in seaside heaven.<\/p>\n

Of course, if you\u2019d like to combine it all, our favorite treat is the surf and turf, featuring filet and twin lobster tails. Perhaps no entree on the beaches will leave you happier, though we do recommend saving at least a little bit of room for dessert.<\/p>\n

While the surf and turf is a go-to for us at I Love the Burg, the Wasabi Crusted Tuna is the most popular dish on the menu, and it has been a favorite among loyal patrons for years. The dish stars a wasabi-soy marinated and panko-crusted tuna over a Citrus Buerre Blanc with a potato puff pastry and stir-fry vegetables, served rare \u2013 medium rare. Yum!<\/p>\n

Snappers Sea Grill is open Sunday-Thursday from 4-9 pm, Friday from 4-10:00 pm, and Saturday from 4-10:30 pm. Early bird at Snappers is daily from 4-5 pm. If you haven\u2019t been \u2013 or if you\u2019re just overdue for a return \u2013 we highly recommend making time to visit the Best Beach Restaurant in the area.<\/p>\n
