We ate a late lunch here and enjoyed it. A classic Florida marina bar/restaurant complete with a line showing how high a hurricane got into the restaurant. Food was good: we had fried grouper, seared tuna on salad and grouper Ruben. All were good. Salad was marred by the tuna not being cooked to order, but it was still fine. Fries are the extruded kind, not my favorite. Beer was cold. read more

Shrimpers has been one of my favorite restaurants in the Stuart area since I was legitimately 6 years old. Now nearly 20 years later, it's still the first restaurant I want to go to when I come back to visit. Nestled along the beautiful Manatee Pocket, nearly every table has a waterfront view to watch the boats going by. The decor "inside" (it's a nearly all outdoor restaurant by the way) is classic Florida; I am always amused by the hurricane water level lines! Even the walk up into the restaurant is a boardwalk ramp (accessibility for the win!) The staff is always friendly there and service is consistent with the speed of getting things in my recollection over the years, even if it's packed. Food wise, Shrimper's has this bread that is just incredible and I can't exactly describe the flavor. I think it's a rosemary and poppy seed bread but I would pay money for their bread recipe. It's that good. I don't think you can get it anywhere else. My typical dinner choice is definitely on the "turf" side, where I like to get the Philly cheesesteak or some kind of pasta dish. This time I went with the pasta primavera, which was new on the menu. I added blackened chicken on top. The veggie quantity was good, and I liked how there was a lot of artichoke, which is more unique for a primavera. Anyhoo, I currently live about 1000 miles away from Shrimpers so I'm not there too often anymore but I always look forward to my next visit! read more

I eat here fairly often because the food is good and it's on the water. The atmosphere has the old florida feel to it. Two bars and multiple levels. Whether you sit at the bar or a table the service is good. Our server made the evening especially fun and enjoyable, thank you, Whitney! I do certainly recommend trying this place the next time you are going out. read more

I was craving fish and chips. Wife said Shrimpers is rated high for fish and chips. So, off we go. Wife goat salmon on a salad. Salmon was overcooked and dry. I got fish and chips. Again overcooked and cold. We won't be back. Bartender was great. Not her fault about food. read more

Haven't been here in a few months but I always have a great seafood meal here! Came in today for a quick lunch. Great atmosphere with traditional Florida coastal vibes. Had the salmon burger with side of chowder, recommended by the server. House made Soup was delicious with Bits of bacon gave it the perfect saltiness. Hubby had the burger and no complaints from him. As a former hotel director, I evaluate service, food, primarily but also management. An establishment is a reflection of its management team. On this occasion, although our server Bella gave wonderful service, I noticed a manager hovering over her and watching her like a hawk. I witnessed this before on a previous visit, but from an older female manager, who complained loudly about a server. Note to owners: If your establishment is suffering from a high staff turnover, I think it's time to refresh your management team. Intimidation tactics on this young generation is ugly and should never be used to compensate for the lack of skills management has. Our server Bella, along with all the servers there, have been awesome. We will be returning again because of her! read more

Amazing venue! Sit outside on the patio! Otherwise you're missing all this place has to offer. Our server was a little meh but the food was fantastic and the locale cannot be beat. read more

Right on the water with great old school charm, salty seafood house ambiance with friendly staff and dinner specials. Margarita i ordered was good, just a lot a bit salty, and (2) oyster shooters naked with just oyster, vodka, lemon, and tabasco. Was unable to try their main dinners but will be back next time to see how their food and specials rank. Out of all the bars / restaurants in Post Salerno, this was my favorite for charm and views. read more

The view is always great on the water. Waitress was nice but not very attentive. I had the burger and substituted fresh green beans for the fries. Burger was great but the green beans were way overcooked so they had no flavor. Traded them in for coleslaw. Husband had lunch grouper bites with fries & chowder. That was tasty he said. read more

Great location with amazing food. Grilled oysters were a special and were delicious. Bahamian conch chowder had a bit of a bite but was still tasty. Tex mex grouper and chicken and shrimp dish were enough to bring home leftovers. We will for sure be back. read more

Well, the view excellent. I sat at the bar nearest the water had a very bad oder. I ordered the soup and sandwich for lunch. The potato soup was very thick, it was supposed to have Clam Chowder. However, Clam Chowder has Clams in it. I was told that the sandwich would be Chicken Salad, I was served corn beef with cheese on Rye. It would have been nice if they added sauerkraut and French dressing and made it into a Ruben. Server was pleasant. read more

Our first time tonight and it was such a cute spot! The drinks were good, the service was attentive, the food was fresh and hot but the view was the main attraction. The "famous" grouper ruben was perfectly fried portion but was missing sauerkraut. My husband enjoyed the clams and oysters basket. We both had a cup/bowl of their delicious clam chowder and the flavor was soo good, I wish there were more clam pieces in it but the flavor was good overall. We will definitely be back. read more

I travel a lot for business as a boat dealer/Yacht broker.I was in Stuart on business and went to Shrimper's for lunch. I was totally impressed by the menu, which had a lot of healthy options to choose from, and they were super kind about making changes to accommodate my diet. I had the Grilled grouper, double order of the green beans, and an Arnold Palmer on the sidea perfect meal for a Fitness freak like me! I wish I could remember my waitresses name. She was awesome. I highly recommend it. Kim Sweers, THE BOAT BOSS read more

Look I was really hungry and all I wanted was some good food. Chris had already been here a couple years ago so he said that it was going to be a good atmosphere and good food selections. It's hot down here in Florida now, Let me tell you that much! I started with the sweet tea of course, followed by a classic Mojito, a cup of conch soup and shrimp skewers platter jerk-flavor style. It did not take long for the food to be served at all. The weather was perfect with a nice breeze, good music, and a very very, very kind staff. I will be back, of course, sometime in the future. read more

Well, it's kind of true what they say. Eat fish in a fish restaurant. Even though the special was prime rib, I found it to be a bit lacking in flavor. It wasn't tough, but it had a whole lot of waste on it. A bit bland and mediocre. The mashed potatoes were lacking in flavor and texture. A bit of milk or butter whipped into them might have saved them from being the stiff, dense potatoes that were served. My companions had the scallops and grouper reuben and were satisfied. No raves...the ambience of this restaurant being right on the marina goes a long way in recommending it if you want a waterside place to eat. The food is ok...a good place and reasonable prices in a great location. The service was fine...no issues at all. read more

I have been going to Shrimpers in Stuart over 30 that least. Its Ambiance is nice & relaxing right on the water. So it was a regular especially for us locals. Walk , or go by boat . I went last week & thought I was in the wrong place it wasn't the same anymore the vibe was even depressing. The bar empty , it was around Lunch time thou? I came with my friends from out of town and they were looking forward to it as their last time they loved it & couldn't wait to finally have some conch!! The menu came no conch on the menu ? As a matter of fact it was lunch with DINNER PRICES! I ordered a sandwich & paid for steak prices ! It was a fried fish sandwich? Not a meal , I use to get two sides now just one! Like 5 fries. I asked the waitress what is going on with the menu? Where's the Conch ? Where's my fish? It looked like a kiddie plate. I said where's the manager Paul?? He was always so professional & nice , I knew he would always make sure his customers were happy & go above & beyond for you. I was told he wasn't there anymore!!! Oh no that explains a lot more. Whoever is Running this now is Just in it for the money. Well you'll be losing a lot more than that . LOCALS!!! we loved our shrimpers now our taste of heaven is gone , AE won't be coming back anymore it's one thing to change a menu , it's another to be GREEDY! read more

This place exceeded my expectations. We had a reservation for 12 people and they did seperste checks which was so accomodating. Our server named David was very fun, personable, joking w us but most importantly accurate and professional. The cocktails were reasonable during happy hour and at a table were still honoring the price. The food was delicious and cooked to my order. I like my salmon cooked through but not dry. The key lime pie was delightful! My sister in law got crab stuffed cod and loved it. The atmosphere is wonderful as you are surrounded by boats, water views everywhere. I can't wait to go back. You have choices of sides for your meal and their New England clam chowder was to die for!! read more

This is a must visit place that is lively and a tropical atmosphere next to a pier with ample parking. The bartender and the locals were friendly. They have a nice happy hour. The artichoke dip was good and the clam strips appetizer was even better. The shrimp scampi pasta dish was fresh and delicious with the right amount of garlic and ample for two people. I will definitely be back next time I am in the area! read more

To start, it seems like you're bothering the hostess the moment you walk in, if she doesn't want to be there, then quit, it really does set the mood for the entire stay. The food, well, outside of the snowbird season it's just over ok, but good enough to come back, which is what brings me to this review. I'll outline it to keep it brief: 1. When you order a dozen oysters you expect a dozen oysters, not 11, and when you bring that up to the waitress and all she said is "I'll let them know" and nothing happens AND you're still charged full price, means they don't care 2. The drinks are, bleh, not even meh, pure trash. When I let her know the bloody Mary was "just a bit over ok, drinkable" she says nothing at all 3. The green beans are BASIC, no seasoning at all, pure bland. The Tuna is absolutely frozen garbage and the slaw they served has absolutely turned rancid. My wife's shrimp skewer was burnt on one side and rubbery on the next, bravo for being the first I've even seen to screw up shrimp like that, there aren't enough drugs in the world I could take to screw up shrimp that badly. The rice pilaf, from a box, just plain sad. 4. It wasn't until the END that the waitress says "I feel bad, do you want me to get you a free drink?". Seriously, WTF? How about comping me for screwing me on the oysters? If you went to the gas station and bought 20 gallons of gas and only got 19, you'd be pissed off. Also, another drink, another pedestrian awful drink at the end, when I'm leaving to drive? Help me make this make sense. Overall, as a lifelong native, we won't be back and won't recommend them to others, this place is just another overpriced low rent dump. read more

We honestly enjoyed this restaurant so much. We had a party of 6 and 3 of us decided to get a bunch of appetizers and slit them. We ordered the Lump Crab Cakes, Seafood Stuffed Portabello Mushroom, Cracked Conch and Oysters. Everything was truly wonderful. If we were to redo it, we would not have gotten the crab cakes because those were just okay. Not bad, but not amazing for the price. However, the Seafood Stuffed Portabello Mushroom, Cracked Conch and Oysters were sooooo good. OH almost forgot, we as a table split the lobster fries and they were AMAZING!!!! The view was great as well. We will absolutely be back next time we are in town. read more

Great place to hang out until the weather goes crazy. Great views! Friendly environment. Just not on the main road.

Work related again. I was in Stuart, Fl for business and fortunately everything went smoothly. So it's lunchtime. I actually spotted this restaurant being very close to where I was. It's on the water but really it was the name that got me. First, it's mid day in Florida and that means it's hot. Did I say HOT, 95 degrees hot with high humidity. I walk in and no one is at the hostess station. Hmmm. But within seconds I have two lovely ladies attending me. Betsy is my waitress and very very lovely. Of course I want shrimp but that's most of their menu. They have tempura shrimp with Teriyaki sauce. I hate when people do this but I ask Betsy if they can hold back the tempura. No problem. Came with cole slaw and one side. I chose rice pilaf. Everything was excellent especially Betsy. Not only easy to look at but attentive and kept filling up my drink even giving me a to go cup. So why not 5 stars, I hear you ask. Although all the seating areas were covered non were enclosed, so no AC. On a day with 95 degree temp. I'm melting. Will I be back? I think I might, when in the area. Hi Betsy!!! read more

Went to dinner last night for some quick appetizers and two meals. The waitress was very cold and not helpful. I have been going to this restaurant for years and enjoy the food and atmosphere, generally. So in general, we have great food and service. Last night was unacceptable as we felt like we were in the way. Our food took a long time and it was not busy. Once we were done eating we were kept hostage by our waitres by not bringing our bill for about 10 minutes until we flagged her down. This restaurant now has a few waitress that have been there a while that are not good and don't care about the customer or the business. This is happening more often and is disappointing! Please do table visit from the management so opinions can be given. We are very easy customers, and enjoy the restaurant. Hopefully that will continue! read more

Another great meal at Shrimpers with an ol buddy. Liz took fantastic care of our table. The bartender poured generous old fashions and the food was delicious. Nice view of amazing boats, a decent breeze, super service and affordable prices. Thanks for another great visit. read more
