Stopped in while on vacation and unfortunately it was just okay overall. I ordered the crab legs with broccoli and mashed potatoes. The crab legs were pretty dry, and some of the gills were still attached, which was honestly a little unappetizing. The broccoli tasted like it came straight from a frozen bag and wasn't really seasoned. The mashed potatoes were decent but nothing special. Honestly, I've had better crab legs at restaurants back home in Michigan, which was a little disappointing considering we're visiting a coastal area. The drinks were okay but a bit on the weak side. Service was slow, but I do want to give some grace there -- our waiter was also the bartender and seemed to be handling all the tables near the bar by himself. He was very friendly and clearly working hard, just probably stretched way too thin. Overall it wasn't a terrible experience, but the food didn't really live up to what we were hoping for while on vacation. read more

We have been to Pinchers, many times, and always love their hot crab dip. Today we ordered and picked up 3 orders of their crab dip. $45.00...Each container was just short of 1 cup. We also did get tortilla chips with each order. Absolutely shocked, and disappointed with the amount...Never again! read more

We visited here on vacation and I ordered the stuffed blackened grouper No seasoning at all definitely wasnt blackened Offered a dessert to make it right. A $6 dessert doesn't make up for a $33 meal. Actually charged us for desert then had to refund us Can confidently say we will not be going back here read more

I had the blackened grouper tacos at Pinchers, and I'm still thinking about them days later. I ordered the two-taco plate with fries and coleslaw on the side, and every bite was a win. The tacos? Absolutely incredible -- hands down the best I've ever had. The grouper was perfectly blackened, packed with flavor, and cooked just right. The toppings added just the right balance without overpowering the star of the dish. The home-cut fries were a standout on their own -- golden, crispy, and full of that homemade taste you just can't fake. And the coleslaw? Creamy, fresh, and absolutely a 10/10. The restaurant was very clean and nice, loved looking at the boats outside. Service was spectacular. read more

Pinchers - Blackened Grouper tacos - Seafood Near Me - Cape Coral, Florida

Food 4.5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 4/5 The food was so good, we scarfed down so fast I neglected to take a photo ( unusual for me). Nicole our server was fantastic. Helpful, quick, friendly and not intrusive. We ordered a Pina colada and a Bloody Mary. 1lb warm of peel and eat shrimp (secret is to request garlic butter used in the crab claws). To dip we ordered garlic bread and fresh cut fries. Everything was perfect from the Pina colada's with dried coconut on the rim. I peeled all of the shrimp and dunked them in the garlic sauce. So good. The ambiance is nice mellow music played low to hear. It is without reservation that I recommend this spot. Don't pass go and go. Ask for Nicole at the bar and you'll have a fantastic experience. read more

It was getting late and we wanted to eat close to our hotel. I went with my parents on a late Monday night. We arrived at 8:30pm, and was sent to the other side to check in. We were given a 5 minute wait, not because it was crowded, but because they were only two servers working at the moment. We were seated after 5 minutes to a small booth in the back. I ordered the small mahi mahi with coleslaw and mashed potatoes for 17 dollars. The fish could have been more fresh and moist, but it was still decently grilled and just enough to satisfy. The coleslaw was better, as the cabbages and carrots were fresh and flavorful with the right amount of seasonings. I also enjoyed the mashed potatoes that had the garlic flavor. I also tried my mom's pasta, which was cooked al dente and enjoyable with the Alfredo sauce. I tasted my dad's french fries, and greens beans, which both were tasty too. Thus, it looked like I enjoyed the sides more than the fish. Our server, Veronica, provided quick and great service throughout, and Erin managed her well. The theming seems to be nautical, with fish and boat decorations. It was very casual, so you can dress in a t shirt without any problems. Pinchers is located in Tarpon Point in the village area, which is very close to the Westin hotel. Even though the community is gated, the gate is normally open. Although my mahi could have been fresher, I still liked it. I also really enjoyed the sides. For being walking distance from the Westin, this is a good option for casual seafood near the resort. read more

The freshness of the oysters was terrible, waitress didn't know the name and when 3 dozen came out. The staff made it seem like these were freshly opened. They open in advance and let them sit read more

If you are in the area, this is a must place. If you can make it during happy hour (3-6pm) even better because you get extra drinks. Everything here is fresh. The place is truly divey, relaxed atmosphere, leave you worries out kind of joint. Fish and chips are great, conch fritters and crab cakes are very good. The crab and corn chowder was also amazing. Service was good, friendly and fast. read more

Always a "go to" for seafood when in the mood. Service generally good with ample amounts of food. Have tried various items, not unhappy yet! read more

The food is not worth the buck! Subpar for the price. Go to Marker 92 and get a way better meal for same price or less

The service was unreal. We had a wonderful experience with the food and overall time there.

Pinterest was the perfect meal right after I got off of a long flight! I had the hot cheese grabbed dip and let me tell you, you need that in your life!! I ordered the shrimp skewer and they were cooked to perfection. 10/10 will be coming back! read more

Excellent atmosphere, beautiful sunset and delicious food. Was an excellent choice for a fun evening

Always great food and service. Beautiful location for dining waterside. One of my favorite places to visit in Cape Coral.

It was very great time. Everybody was professional. The waitress was very nice and helpful.

Yes, we were there. Good food snd service. It's really cute too! Grouper was really good! Busy place.

Beware of the 2 for one drinks they offer. My friend and I each ordered a vodka and water. Apparently we were served deep Eddy vodka with water. When we got our bill we were charged $15 each. I talked to a manager and I also called the next day. I was told that that is what they charge because it's two for one. So they're not giving you two for one drinks they're doubling the price and saying they're only charging you for one. I asked the manager how much they charge for Gray goose vodka and water and was told that it is $14. If you're not aware Gray goose is a top shelf liquor and is about $40 in a store. Deep Eddy's vodka is about $26 in a store. If you look at Pinchers menu most of their specialty drinks are about 12 to $15. So I guess I'm saying don't order their two for one because you're not getting two for one you're paying the highest price for it. read more

Poor service. Ordered fish that was very overcooked and served 15 mins late. Worst was the attendees were restaurant owners. The manager said he'd let the chef know. Did not even offer any compensation. read more

It's a 10/10! So impressed by Amanda when she greeted me at the bar. The feel of the place is smooth and easy. Relaxed and yet spunky at the same time. Crab chowder is by far the best I've had in a long time! It's a true hidden gem here :) read more

The waitress, Sam the worst waitress I've ever had no greeting. Hi how are you? it was like You ready?No smile short and cutthroat.

He like they were pressed out of the freezer. I gave it a two star because the crab king crab legs were good and so was the crab the portion of very small and no sides.I'm read more

Pinchers Cape Coral is located in a fancy gated area. I really like that they have the brown paper table covers that allows the kids to draw on as well as having the kids eat free deal. The food was super fresh and delicious. We ordered the crab dip appetizer that came with super hot fresh made chips, and as picky as my kids are they ate the whole thing. The patio was closed for cleaning but we got there right when they opened. The service was great and I would definitely recommend pinchers when in the mood for fresh seafood. read more

The food was delicious and the portions great. I had the Alaskan crab with an enormous side of fries. Service was very good. My wife said her fish fingers were very good. My brother in law had fish sandwich which looked good. We all loved the crab dip appetizer. I was surprised by the large number of preschoolers and the noise they bring. It made it very difficult to have a conversation. It's still a pleasant experience. . read more

We are on vacation and this place is one of my son's favorite. We got the crab and cheese appetizer that was very good and had a bit of spice to it - which I like. The waitress Sam was amazing. She kept an eye on our waters and brought refills immediately when we needed them. I ordered the smaller portion of Grouper and you get to pick 2 sides. I ordered coleslaw (no big deal) and locally grown green beans that were delicious. I ordered the grouper grilled and it was really greasy and not very good. My daughter in law ordered the shrimp tacos and for her 2 sides she was able to substitute a cup of corn and crab chowder that she said was all delicious. My son ordered shrimp scampi pasta that he said was delicious. With a Premium Margarita for $11 and an Orange Mojito for $10, our total bill was $105. I personally would not come here again because there are so many great seafood places in Florida and I would not consider this one of them. read more

Good food the fish and fries are always good. Waiters are always on the ball. Try to sit where there's a view.

Saturday brunch- yes! Eggs benny- built as a tower. 2 english muffins toasted and buttery. Arugula, Canadian bacon, and a lemony Hollandaise sauce over a well poached runny yolk egg. Complimented with a refreshing and spicy bloody Mary. The view is a waterfront marina. The service is attentive and friendly. Great fresh seafood available to take home retail. Overall, a must try. read more
