Editorial Review for Shephard's Restaurant & Lounge – by Bob Putnam

The Scene
Outside at the tiki bar, a straw hut overlooking Clearwater Pass, there's live reggae and rock and roll. Boaters often anchor near the shore and wade in. The weekend routinely resembles a spring break getaway with tons of 20-somethings in shorts and bikinis.

The Draw
The waterfront restaurant specializes in buffets. There's a seafood and prime rib buffet that offers crab legs, stuffed flounder, oysters, shrimp and grouper. The Sunday brunch buffet includes eggs benedict, made to order omelets, carved roast beef, baked ham, Belgium waffles, oysters and shrimp. Sunday is the day for soaking up the sun, having a few drinks and bikini contests. And don't miss those hardbody contests.

The only reason to go to this nightclub is because you are stuck on Clearwater with no where to go. If you see anyone that is around 5'5 that looks like management or a bouncer then they probably have little man syndrome and your best bet is to stay away from them, pay your $10 and walk in quietly or you will get thrown out for no reason. They have serious issues. Not my favorite place at all and if your thinking of holding an event here go somewhere else. You can have just as nice a wedding or event having it somewhere less expensive. This place only gets the hype it does because its the only place to go in Clearwater. Fun night clubs are starting to open in downtown St.Pete. Go there.

Pros: The decor is spiffy and its on the beach so thats good too.

Cons: The management there is rude and the food is nothing to rave about.
