About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
At the Island Way Grill, we're all about fresh fish. Our own boats make daily trips to the middle grounds to bring back fresh tuna, mahi, snapper and other local varieties. No long-line fish here-just hook, rod, and reel. If it's any fresher, it is still in the gulf. Most of our cooking revolves around our oak and citrus fired open pit, which sears at an extremely high temperature and adds a delicious smokiness to everything grilled. You'll find an abundance of fresh herbs and only the best quality seasonings. Fresh vegetables are used throughout our menu, and all soups and sauces are hand-prepared. We are also proud to provide an excellent selection of the worlds best oysters flown in fresh for your enjoyment. In addition to our menu, our chefs prepare a varied assortment of daily specials that always add an element of interest to our every-day offerings.

    The noise level is so high that we had difficulty hearing each other. The food was good, but not exceptional. Service was very good, but again the noise level made it difficult to communicate with her.

    Our last meal at Island Way before we depart home to Canada. It’s our favourite restaurant, the food is always great and the service is impeccable, always. We have dined here 6 times the last two months and every time is consistently good. We always get a table outside by the water, and it’s the best. See you hopefully next year! 🇨🇦

    The service was the distraction. It seemed like they didn’t have enough staff or coordination to keep the tables clean, picking up dirty dishes, or filling up water glasses. We ordered fairly expensive items which arrived poorly cooked or missing needed utensils. For example, the stone crab arrived without any forks so there was no way to get to all the meat and when we asked for crackers so we could break the clause more they said they had run out and didn’t have any more available. Not really acceptable for this kind of restaurant.

    Our first time to Clearwater and to Island Grill which came up in a Google search. 10/10 all around from Drinks, food and service but a special shout out to our waitress Morena. She was what every waitress/waiter should be and more. Definitely will be back

    We went for the buffet on Sunday breakfast and lunch all at once all of the breakfast items did not taste good. We all agreed that, the lunch portion of it was OK but $42 per person. I don’t think so.

    After the hostess forgot about us & it took us 3 times checking to see if our table ( which we had reserved in Open Table) was ready, we were finally seated. Then we had the greatest waiter, CONNOR, and the manager after learning we had been forgotten, Treated us to 2 Free appetizers.From then on out our service was over the top great and the food was amazing!!

    Great restaurant on the beach. Very noisy on Saturday night. Good food, excellent service. Very pricey though so I can’t “highly” recommend, but if you got it like that…you will enjoy.
