“ This place was like finding a little unexpected hidden gem. Food was great and affordable, clean, dogs welcome. Fish caught right off the dock and within minutes cooked right there, can’t get any fresher! The owner Jason was so nice, took time out of his busy day to educate us even sat and talk to us while we ate. AWESOME place 5 stars. ”
“ We loved sitting outside watching the shrimping boats on the water; meeting the owner; taking in the picturesque Florida setting; and eating the best fresh seafood. We ordered the Friday fish and chips special and a pound of shrimp. It was more than we could eat. Generous portions, great flavours, friendly service. Highly recommended. We couldn’t resist taking pictures of the egret and pelicans. It was a perfect finish to our visit to see the manatees at Silver Spring park. ”
“ So glad we stopped by! We had the smoked fish dip (highly recommend) smoked wings (tasted like mini turkey legs) shrimp(really tasty) and then the best blackened fish tacos I’ve ever had. ”
“ The food is AMAZING!!! You can watch as boats come in and leave. Sometimes boaters are taking care of their catch for the day. You can watch the pelicans while your food cooks. ”
“ Fabulous atmosphere on a dock. Food is good too. You pick up several guide services here and airboat exertions. ”
“ Seafood truck kitchen here served delicious blackened Mahi Mahi sandwich. The airboat ride we reserved (BlownAwayAirboats.com) launched from here and was awesome. Saw a bald eagle & nest and 3 dolphins cavorted around the boat for 10 minutes. Never saw so many pelicans in one place waiting to feed off the fish cull from sport fishing charter boats catches. ”
“ Pleasant surprise looking for a bite on the way back from the beach. Had the blackened fish tacos, burger, chicken tenders, with fries and hush puppies. Everything cooked well, I especially enjoyed the tacos, well-seasoned. It was an extra treat to watch the fisherman come back in with their catches and feed the pelicans the scraps ”
“ We stopped here on a whim- and we were so pleased! The guys had just come back from a two hour trip, they chatted with us about their trip, fish they cought, kinds, types, best for eating, you name it. The food came out in a timely manner, and the taste was amazing! Tasted very fresh and full of flavor. Well worth the trip past all the other seafood places. Prices were very reasonable! We will totally be back when we’re in the area! ”
