    My wife's meal
    TJ M.

    My wife and greatly enjoyed our lobstah pie. She got the 4.5oz, I had the 6 oz portion. She had a tossed house salad and Cole slaw. I had fresh cut fries and Cole slaw. We ate inside today. Our sever was Lisa. She was a joy. Great experience'

    Great shrimp and fries!
    Denise D.

    Stopped for a quick lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Nice and clean, great service. Offered free refills and the fried shrimp and fries were outstanding. The lobster roll was as well but it could have used a tad more filling to at least get to the end of the roll. Would definitely stop here again if in the area!!

    Crab Rangoon Dip - a limited time special

    Another wonderful meal at Cape Cod Fish - we had three of the specials, coconut shrimp "the best coconut shrimp I've ever had" said one of our tablemates. I had the SICILIAN SALMON BRUSCHETTA and it was excellent. One of the others had the ATLANTIC COD & JUMBO SHRIMP BASKET and she said it was also excellent and the last dish we had was the Salmon BLT - again a great meal. The fish is always cooked perfectly.

    Bread pudding served with ice cream. Can't go wrong

    Love the people here always friendly happy to have you there service is always great n the food is delicious Fresh served hot everything is good Highly recommend this quaint spot

    Stuffed Halibut

    Cape Cod Fish outdid themselves for Mother's Day! We had their specials for the day and I can easily say each and every one of them were amazing! Such great flavors bursting through the calamari with banana peppers Kalamata olives and roasted red peppers sooo good! My mother had the twin lobster tails and they were done to perfection and so sweet, my brother had the stuffed halibut ( stuffed with crab&lobster ) excellent! I had the Santorini salad which had artichokes and sun-dried tomatoes along with other tasty things and blackened shrimp! So delicious! Service was top notch and friendly HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    Bread Pudding

    This place truly is a hidden gem. So happy my friend and I decided to try this place. It wasn't very busy when we got there so we got seated right away. There's outdoor and indoor seating available. Our server was amazing. Wish I could remember her name. I have to say everyone that work there were very friendly. Both my friend and I decided to get the same thing. We got the classic Lobster roll with the right amount of Mayo, lemon and herbs. For sides we got the Parmesan truffle fries and coleslaw. The whole plate was devoured in no time. There was plenty of big juicy pieces of Lobster with the perfect amount of dressing on it. It was a delicious roll. The Parmesan Truffle fries were delicious as well. We ended our dinner on a sweet note with their extremely delicious bread pudding. I highly recommend trying it, you won't be disappointed. Will be back for sure next time we are visiting.

    Seafood Stew
    Jaime S.

    We chose to eat in the patio area. I ordered a cup of the Clam Chowda & The Seafood Stew. My wife had the Atlantic Cod Fish & Chips. Everything was super fresh delicious delicate & top notch. The stew was the best I've ever had-Super hot fresh abundant with mussels cod fish & shrimp with small pieces of sausage. It was very satisfying and hearty I would totally expect for you to give this deliciousness a try! It was a special for a Friday, Thumbs up to the chef. The service was attentive and they treated us well. Stop in to this business establishment -you will not be disappointed.

    I appreciate you reaching out thru your yelp comment to "try and make it right". There is no making it right, it is what it is. My food was very fishy and I feel it was overpriced. 3 star to 1 star is bc of you as an owner and your attitude which by the way is a quality that obviously is a part of your restaurant. Telling me that my review lost its credibility bc I didn't come back to your restaurant is ridiculous. Your passive aggression again justifies the 1 star. Face it man your food is mediocre and overpriced. Accept the constructive criticism and do better.

    Whole belly clams!

    Amazing fresh seafood! Don't hesitate to eat the fresh fish! Delish! Local, friendly and clean....

    Baked Stuffed Shrimp
    Chelsyea M.

    Great customer service! Was in the mood for seafood so decided to try this restaurant after seeing the reviews. Ordered the baked stuffed shrimp & Lobster n sweet corn Chowder was which were both very flavorful! Talk avoid a burst of flavor as soon as they hit my taste buds! Highly recommend both! Also ordered a fried shrimp and scallop basket & that was ok. My fav part of the basket was the Cole slaw.

    Their menu

    Everything went well. My best friend and I ate here before we were headed to our concert. We were greeted warmly as soon as we stepped foot on their outdoor patio. We were asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside,it was a wonderful day out so we decided to sit outside. We were served right away. I ordered the fried shrimp basket and my best friend ordered the fish and chip basket. Our orders were hot and fresh. I loved the ambiance as well with all the nautical decor. Would definitely recommend and hope to go back to eat there again in the future.

    I was here for their famous lobster roll. This restaurant has good deal during the lunch time. Their lunch meal combo definitely is a good time to try. I got the lunch Lobstah Lobstah. This is combo meal with a classic lobster roll and a cup of lobster chowder. The lobster roll is a 4 ounce lobster roll with New England classic roll. The lobster meat is big enough. I like the chowder better because of taste and chunk lobster meat in the soup. Overall is a good experience. Service is attentive. Many come to enjoy their lunch specials.

    Cod & jumbo shrimp

    Authentic New England Seafood--Right in Fort Myers! Cape Cod Fish Co is a total gem. My father-in-law, a Massachusetts native and lifelong New England seafood connoisseur, has been on a mission to find whole belly clams that rival his all-time favorite--Bob's Clam Hut in Kittery, Maine. Well, he found them. He declared Cape Cod Fish Co's clams the second best in the country--and if you know him, that's no small compliment. The clams were briny, perfectly crisp, and absolutely legit. As for the rest of the meal? I had the fried cod and jumbo shrimp--both cooked to perfection. The fries were golden and the coleslaw was refreshingly tangy, a perfect balance to the seafood. Even the service stood out--friendly, quick, and welcoming. We're already planning our return trip. If you crave real-deal New England seafood and don't want to book a flight north--this spot nails it. Just go.

Serve only fresh, local and regional seafood from the U.S! 2. If it is shrimp, it will be Pink Gulf shrimp and none other! 3. No menu item will be made from pre-made or frozen products! 4. If the recipe is from the South it is good for the mouth! These aren't just rules; they are the words of a real individual who believed in a simple philosophy: "Give them the freshest food, prepared with care, and they will keep coming back. Above all, make every meal a celebration!" Salty Papa We are pleased to report that the family legacy is alive and well. The quality is unmistakable; when you refuse to compromise on standards, it shows in every dish. Walking in, you truly feel as though you've stepped onto a boat. The rustic nautical theme perfectly embodies Florida living, and located right before the Fort Myers Beach bridge, it's the perfect dinner destination after a day on the water. Upon walking in, you truly feel like you've stepped into his personal Shrimp House. The ambiance makes you feel as if you are right aboard the boat, with a rustic nautical theme that perfectly embodies Florida living. Located right before the Fort mYERS beach bridge would make a excellent stop after a day at the beach. "The drink menu offered just as much variety as the kitchen. We started with the Dirty Arnold Palmer--crisp, refreshing, and done exactly right. Next was the Gator Bayou Water, which was greener than duckweed! (If you don't know what duckweed is, join the club; we had to look it up ourselves to verify the drink perfectly matched that vibrant, green aquatic hue.) To round out the assortment, we enjoyed a classic Mango Margarita and the Blue Mermaid, which tasted like a refreshing, iced blue piña colada. Whether you're looking for a classic or something adventurous, they have a signature sip for every mood. From their Peel & Eat Shrimp with an assortment of signature flavors (We got the Keylime sunset butter!!) to the standout Papa's Famous Charleston Shrimp & Grits, the variety is endless. Whether you want it fried, grilled, blackened, covered, or wrapped, they have mastered every possible variation. To start we enjoyed crispy, crunchy, pillowy hushpuppies that immediately took a dive into the housemade remoulade. For the entree the coconut crusted chicken with their pinacolada sauce, it was an elevated chicken strip with a tropical touch. As well as their hickory bacon wrapped shrimped basted with their bbq brushed with care But the hospitality doesn't stop there--there is truly something for everyone. They even offer a 'doggie menu' for those enjoying the patio, making it a genuinely family-friendly destination. In Southwest Florida, it's rare to find a spot that balances high-quality seafood with such a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere. Thank you to our amazing servers Stacy D & Pedro! We will be back!

I went to the…read moreestablishment for a late lunch w/ mom she ordered fried oysters no problem I ordered fresh 1/2 dozen no problem. I also ordered hog fish * a Fl delicacy described as follows: Considered superior in taste and texture, often marketed as the "filet mignon of the sea". Well folks I was served tilapia and charged $28 for a $7 dollar dish. I hope the owner is reading this because you know it's dead wrong. I questioned the waitress Staci because I know this was bogus. Not her fault she does not run the kitchen. I did tell her I planned on reviewing the experience...... after 2 bites I took the food to go so I could prove that they knowingly price gouge customers. I was shocked to learn that misrepresenting fish in FL is considered a food violation and a finable offense....now i have evidence so let's see where this goes. Anyway guys when you go to Salty Papa order chicken wings and cheap drinks others they will try to scam you. See pics of tilapia vs their hogfish *same cheap fish. Also adding pics of real delicacy. This place is a fraud. Owner left a very aggressive response. Not sure why when you got your $28 and I left my phone number. No need to be Sassy if you are really customer satisfaction tag you're it.

I tried the shrimp scampi and Tuna Tutaki off the summer deal menu Tuna Tutaki is the same size as if you ordered it off the regular menu, same as the scampi huge portion. We also ordered the Grouper Oscar which was delicious if we're being picky it could of had more sauce. The only thing I wasn't impressed with was their skinny margarita and that's just based off my flavor preference. For dessert The Tower Carrot Cake is equivalent to 3 or 4 big slices, definitely shareable.

They were backed so we still had to wait for a table but it was a holiday so I don't really hold that against them, just noting. Do note that most parking is valet (complimentary). My husband and I split oysters and the Captains Platter. Captains Platter was tasty but for $40+ - I think they could've given a larger portion of at least the veggie sides. Restaurants who skimp on these always blow my mind, Brussels sprouts are so cheap! What we did have was just ok. Sprouts were soggy and bitter, only a few scallops, but the fish was good. I actually liked the plantains a lot! Our server was fabulous and we did need some help from one of the managers who was also great. It is quite a loud restaurant but again it was packed. Overall, I just wasn't excited about anything we had, and thought the prices were high for the quality. With all the seafood in this area, it would be hard to return here.
