    Found leeches on crab legs. The seafood here in this restaurant isn't safe don't feed it to your family. I have been coming here for more than a year only to discover the food handling here is not safe at all. When I spoke to the owner about it he gave me attitude and did not issue to the gravity of the situation. To the owner: the customer service here at this place is not great its actually really bad mainly due to your daughters are running it. Yet another employed child. You should have taken accountability of your product and my experience. You lost a loyal customer over this. Please remember there are multiple Chinese restaurants in the area, one can simply choose not to go here. To everyone attempting to eat here: if this were to happen to you, your parents or your children you'd be extensively disgusted and angry. This situation was not handled properly from the owners. In addition, God knows how many more diseases or infections the sea food here may have. I extremely recommend choosing a different restaurant due to the food handling. It may appear clean but the food is clearly not. And the owner openly admitted he orders the sea food like that.

    So when I first walked up to this place I was extremely skeptical because me husband told me that we were going to get to get seafood and the sign says "China Taste" (my husbands hates Chinese food) so to my surprise they had a Cajun seafood menu! So we sat in the restaurant and from whaat i coUld tell, it's family owned and operated (WHICH I LOVED!) we ordered a platter that had crab, shrimp, sausage, corn, and potatoes with a mussels, yummmmmm! We opted for the house special sauce which was a mixture of lemon pepper seasoning, garlic butter, and Cajun seasoning. Honestly it was some of the best seafood I've had in central Florida! It was very flavorful aNd the staff was really nice and helpful. Since going here I've already made more orders to this place.

    I was a bit skeptical when they first started the seafood boil, but after my first order I'm hooked!! Reasonably priced, prepared well and absolutely delicious!! The house sauce (everything mixed) is so good I could drink it straight

    No phone miscommunication - written in plain text. Still wrong phone number and address.

    What happened to this place? New management? What ever it is, I'm incredibly disappointed with where this restaurant has gone in the past two years. We used to order once or twice a week via delivery. The delivery man is the only thing that has stayed consistent over the past two years - he is always nice. However, I suppose, last night was my last straw with this place. I will never again order from here or recommend it to anyone. Here's why: 1. Placed the order online. There was glitch in the online payment system for credit cards. So, I sent the order off as cash and immediately called them on my fiancé phone to give them my card numbers over the phone. The gentleman asked me if the card's mailing address was the same as the address they had on the order (for card verification on the machine). I replied "yes," he does something and says "ok, all set. We will have it to you in about an hour and 15 minutes." 2. An hour later, my fiancé, who was working at the time, looks at his phone and tells me, "someone called my phone 6 times five minutes ago. Is it the restaurant?" My order had my phone number as the contact number, yet they called my fiance... most likely because they were looking at caller ID instead of looking at my actual order form. My phone number, which was on the order form clearly, was not called once. 3. I called them again to see what the problem was. The guys says "we tried to deliver to 625 Courtland Rd. - that's not a real address." I tell him our address, again, and look at my e-mail confirmation, which shows my correct address. Where they got 625 Courtland, I have no idea. 4. He says, "ok, I'll have it sent back out." I ask him, "well, is my food cold now?" to which he retorts rudely, "I've had food sit here for 4 hours and it's still warm." Not wanting to argue, I say ok and thank you. Who leaves food on a counter for four hours? And what kind of magician can keep food warm in a paper bag for 4 hours? I've been to there location - they keep food to be picked up at the front counter. I should have said to remake it, but considering my history with them, I trusted my food would be OK. 5. The same, kind, delivery man shows up 30 minutes later (at this point, an hour and 45 minutes has elapsed and asks for the cash payment. We tell him we paid with a card over the phone and he asks us to call the store. At this point, my fiancé is angry and calls them himself. The same guy picks up, says, "oh your card is declined" and when asked to read the card numbers we provided, he spurts out some numbers that are no where close to the numbers I had provided him and that he himself had oked an hour and 45 minutes prior! The ridiculous part about the entire thing is that he doesn't call the delivery man to handle the card issue. He has my fiancé walk back and forth, in and out of the house between his wallet, consulting with me about if it was the same guy on the phone, and speaking with the delivery man. Such poor customer service. 6. Now the worst part - our food was cold. Not room temp - cold. I ordered pork dumplings, which are impossible to reheat (re-steam and they get mushy, microwave and they get rubbery). So, he lied about our food being warm. Shame on this place and the people they have hired recently. They lost yet another good customer, though according to recent reviews, I'm not the only one. You should have refunded us for all the complications or at the very least, remade our meals. Will never go back and am rather sad, because there food is pretty decent. I guess I'll go into Orange City for Chinese from now on.

He explained the specials, and if we wanted to substitute different food items which ones would be of no extra charge. We specifically came for the seafood boil bag, so that is what we ordered along with an order of hush puppies, and my sister had the clam chowder which she enjoyed. The hush puppies were nothing great, would had been better with creamed corn inside. The seafood bag was really good. My only issue was that I asked for Garlic butter sauce and Mild seasoning, which if that is what I was served then I don't want to know what the next level was, because it was somewhat on the spicy side. Overall everything was really good. Even with the minor issues I stated I would definitely come back. The staff were friendly and courteous, the food came out in a decent amount of time. The atmosphere was quiet and the decor was cute. I would definitely recommend this establishment.

    Recently I had dinner at Lighthouse Seafood Market & Cafe and it was my first time there, but…read moredefinitely not my last. Lighthouse is both a full seafood market and restaurant, giving you that fresh off the boat quality seafood cooked exactly how you like and served right to your table. I had the Blackened Grouper with broccoli and parsley red potatoes. The fish was seasoned and cooked perfectly, super juicy and incredibly fresh. The sides were just as good paired with the fish perfectly. I also had a tasty little side Caesar salad. The house Caesar dressing was great, lightly dressed so it didn't drown the romaine like some places do, and finished with grated parmesan and crunchy croutons. Overall, this was a great meal. The service was great, the food was excellent, and I would highly recommend checking them out.

    First visit at this establishment. Was recommended by friends, before going I checked the website…read moreto get an idea of what others ordered. My sister started with the clam chowder, which she thought was a little spicy but good. I had a small Caesars salad. For the entree my sister ordered one snow crab cluster which I know for a fact their market price was high, also they don't offer them in any kind of seasoning. Putting Old Bay on them just makes the shell spicy. I ordered the 15 reds, which are peel and eat shrimp. They were great, cooked perfectly. We ordered the hush puppies 3 count, now this was a problem because first they should never be that big and on the oily side to me. Problems I noticed, some of the wait staff is not that friendly also most of the staff serving food without gloves. A young man brought a bowl of food to a customer with his thumb on the rim, gross. This is my major complaint and take away that confirms I won't be back. There are two prices listed on the menu, one if you pay in cash and a higher price if you use a card. That is unacceptable, because some places will state that there will be a percentage up charge , not for every item. The place was somewhat busy when we arrived, but it was a constant flow of traffic, because they also have a seafood market inside to buy your own. I wasn't noisy at all when we went, not sure what it's like later in the evening. My personal takeaway is it's a nice enjoyable place for the locals, but if you're looking flavorful seafood, look further.

I had The Current bookmarked in Sanford and with it being only fifteen minutes away it was easy to get there. As I approached, I thought, "That's where it is?" I have passed the place many times but never knew it was there! It is a couter service place. Which mostly means a quick in and out. Plenty of seating inside and even some outside.

It's been years since I've had fried okra and this side dish did not disappoint! Hubby ordered the fried grouper sandwich and fries. Everything tasty! The food arrived quickly. I'm not 100% positive, but the food seemed to be made from scratch, i.e no pre-frozen items. We enjoyed our meal and can't wait to return. Parking is curbside.

    What a great find! We visited Macker Seafood on the 4th of July and had a wonderful experience…read more Everything tasted incredibly fresh. The clam chowder was rich, hearty, and loaded with clams and other delicious ingredients. We also took advantage of their happy hour special with $1 raw oysters, which were fresh and delicious. The fried fish and fried shrimp specials were both excellent--lightly battered, perfectly cooked, plump, and juicy. We paired everything with a couple of beers and sweet tea, and it made for a fantastic meal. The service was outstanding. Lauren, our server, was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Brian and Mama were also so welcoming and accommodating, making us feel right at home. We really enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere, the clean restaurant (including the spotless restroom), and the background music, which was at just the right volume. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend Macker Seafood if you're looking for fresh seafood, great service, and a relaxed dining experience!

    Very nice little place; limited menu and drink selection (just beer and seltzers, I believe). What…read morewe had was very good and service was fine ut a bit quirky; the waitress was very chatty and seemed a bit spaced out at times (when we went in, 3 tables were seated, 3 or 4 empty and nothing on them, but she said it would be a while before they'd be wiped clean). We had chowder, raw oysters, lightly blackened mahi-mahi and peel/eat shrimp. No complaints with any. Peel/eat shrimp came with potatoes and corn, too-- nice surprise. Mahi-mahi came with tasty fries. Just a simple little place with basic menu; I guess I was hoping for a bit more variety and different dishes, this being the 3rd day of seafood fest! No complaints at all, but there are other places in the area with very good seafood, full bar, seating on the water, etc. (I thought this place could probably charge much more, being just as it is, if it were anywhere near the actual beach or waterway).
