One of St. Pete's longest-running restaurants, this casual seafood spot is housed in a former laundromat. With its colorful murals outside and its St. Pete kitsch inside, you'll get the real flavor of Florida when you dine here. Food is mostly fried, broiled or steamed, and there's plenty of it. If you start with a cup of their infamous "Moon Over My Clammy" chowder, be sure to split it. It's very filling. In the spring or fall, there's outdoor seating -- although that view of Fourth Street is anything but tropical. Still, it's a good place to go for a quick bite of seafood. There's a fish case up front, too, in case you just want to get some to go and cook it yourself.
