Rusty Bellies Waterfront Grill, Inc.

Great Food and atmosphere. If the inside is full, be sure to grab a seat at outside bar overlooking the water. Started with the Bellie Bangers, light airy batter, they were great. Bar tender provided some Hush Puppy's again tasty and not oily. Clam strips and Fish & Chips were very good and large portions.

Came in here today with 3 other friends from Canada while on vacation. Bella was our server and she was great! Super personable and helpful with all of our questions. All the food and drinks we ordered was amazing as well. Would definitely recommend and return if I’m ever in the area again.

Only complaint is how long the wait can be, but it's worth the wait! We were told on a Saturday at 4:30 pm it was about a 45 minute wait, we finally got seated at 6:05. Sushi was ehhh, nothing special, we love our sushi, appetizer and main course was delicious! Would definitely eat there every time we're in tarpon!

We visited Rusty Bellies for the first time; we were pleasantly surprised by it. We sat outside and our server appeared quickly; she was pleasant and in a few minutes brought a bag of hush puppies--they were the best I've ever had. We had salmon with various sides and shrimp. They were all excellent. We will definitely go there again.

We stopped at this waterfront spot in Tarpon Springs and I have to say, I was really impressed. The whole area is beautiful, and the setup of the restaurant makes the most of it. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside, but the outdoor space is where this place really shines. You have a large area right by the water with boats docking in and out, live music most of the time, and even multiple outdoor bars. It creates a very relaxed, fun atmosphere that is perfect for just hanging out and enjoying the view. The food was solid, nothing over the top but definitely good, and the prices were very reasonable for a waterfront location. What really stood out, though, was how smoothly everything ran. Even with a busy crowd, the operation felt organized and efficient. The service was excellent. Everyone we interacted with was pleasant, attentive, and clearly on their game. You can tell the staff works well together, which makes a big difference in a place like this. Overall, this place checks a lot of boxes. Great scenery, good food, strong service, and fair pricing. If you are in the area, this is definitely a must visit. I would absolutely come back again.
