They offer a special crab soup for their retail customers as well, but today we weren't prepared to leave with frozen items. Their frozen shrimp is loose packed in bags, perhaps more convenient than the frozen boxed blocks available elsewhere in this area?

I'm editing this review since I have found out that this place is closed for the season…read more Please help me understand, I'm not from this area. Why do businesses close in the summer in Florida? We eat seafood at home all year round. Fort Myers is near 2 bodies of water. Don't people fish in the summer? --- Been there 3 times during business hours (early in the day) and the door has been locked and the open sign turned off. Called the phone number and left messages but no reply. Is this business still in operation?

My overall rating may not be your experience! This is a small shop. I was a "walk in" patron. This…read moreshop fills orders that were previously made. I didn't ask but it was my assumption that in order to have fresh seafood and keep the prices reasonable it would be challenging to have an abundance of fish on hand. With that said, I purchased mahi, scallops, and smoked salmon dip. The prices seem reasonable. The sales lady was polite and knowledgeable. Cash is best. The mahi cooked up great and was fresh. The scallops were frozen but cooked fairly well. Frankly, I've had better but they weren't bad. The salmon dip was a hit. Great salmon flavor, appropriate amount of smoke. I'd recommend, either call in, or visit, the day before and place your order. Try their smoked salmon dip. You shouldn't be disappointed.

We've lived in this town for more than 40 years and have never dined at this restaurant. I don't know what it looked like in the past, but it doesn't feel like they have changed their menu or their pricing in ages. Service was great, the food was ok, and the drinks were mediocre. It was nice to check this off our bucket list, but I don't see us going back. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't worth a second trip to us. The restaurant was buzzing with people. I can see why it is a staple in the community, we just prefer something a little more memorable.

For an early dinner, we ordered the grouper sandwich with coleslaw and the snapper with roasted potatoes and zucchini. Both dishes were absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. The grouper sandwich was especially yummy, and the snapper was cooked perfectly and paired wonderfully with the sides. The only downside was that the menu doesn't offer a large variety of options. However, the quality and flavor of the food more than make up for it, and the meal was well worth the price. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely return for another meal by the water.
