A classic Marco Island restaurant! One of their deals was kids eat free on Thursday so my 2 children's meals were free which was a pleasant surprise. The food all came out extremely hot which was great and the portions were extremely generous. Shoutout to Juan, our server he was so unbelievably kind to my kids and served us well!

Regular fish fingers with seasoned fries
Suzette C.

We had two different platters of fish fingers, one grouper with onion rings and the other standard fish finger with seasoned fries. Mom had the scallops, & shrimp over a spinach bed which was great but we love adding more lemon juice to the seafood. Daughter had the lobster roll with chips which could have used a little more sauce. Overall service was excellent, atmosphere was perfect on the water, outside with a breeze in the air. Each meal came with the inside salad bar lots of food and hubby had a great time making friends with other diners.

Snook Inn was on our short list while visiting Marco Island, so we finally made it over there. We tried to go on Sunday, but the parking lot was packed and there was already a wait. We came back midweek before the dinner rush, and that worked out way better. The first thing I noticed was the vibe. They had live music going, which seemed great for anyone sitting outside. Inside was quieter and felt a little more like a traditional dining room. Most entrées come with the salad bar, and honestly the homemade pickles and the bread were my favorite part. Our food came out fast and hot, which I always appreciate. Marco Island in general leans pricey, and Snooks fits right in with that. Kids meals were $14.99, which felt high, and the gift shop had some surprisingly expensive name‑brand stuff. Service was fine...not bad, not amazing, just kind of there. Overall, though, Snooks is a fun stop if you're in the area. I'd still recommend giving it a try.

We come every year for the AYCE crab special. It's the best deal. Also, Courtney is the best server we have ever had in the years upon years of coming down here. We wish we could come back tomorrow just for his service. Give that guy a raise. Love coming here!

Had a great experience boating in. Just went for drinks and they were great. Really enjoyed the heat and smoke. The salad bar looked fantastic and will definitely go back for a full dinner. Great vibe around the outside bar area with live music.

Tasty cocktails

We've been to the Snook Inn a few times now since it has reopened and overall have enjoyed our lunches here. As others have mentioned this is a hopping and crowded spot. Parking can be tricky. They have a nice outdoor tiki bar/hut area with dining, but it was cold and windy today and opted to eat inside. It was crowded and perhaps they moved some tables inside as nobody really wanted to dine outside today. It took a good 10 minutes or so for our server to greet us, but after that everything moved along at a good pace. People mention that the prices here are a little higher than comparable places, but they do include one visit to the salad bar. It is a basic salad bar, but enjoyable with lettuce and a variety of toppings as well as potato, pasta salads and cole slaw. We tried a burger today and I would say it was just OK, a smashburger, and nothing exceptional. On the other hand, the grouper reuben sandwich was delicious with a nice thick piece of fish. Cocktails were tasty and potent. If you are looking for a fun spot with good food, I would recommend giving this place a try.

We went here for an early dinner on a Sunday afternoon after we had to pivot from our number 1 choice because it was cash only. Who even uses cash anymore for anything? Snook Inn was just minutes away so it was convenient. It accepts credit cards. The place was packed so we had to wait a bit, but ultimately the wait was worth it as we were seated waterfront. We were able to watch the boats up and down the body of water (a channel? not sure). The ambiance is exactly what you would expect of a casual seafood restaurant. Parking is tight. We arrived early so we found a spot but by the time we left cars were circulating and searching. We started with grouper bites (as they are called) for an appetizer and they were excellent. LIghtly battered, fried to perfection, and very tasty. I did not even want or use the accompanying sauce. $20 for a healthy portion. I ordered the white shrimp blackened, which came 8 to an order ($28). They were cooked perfectly and very fresh. Very good shrimp. The meal came with a trip to the salad bar and a side, and I ordered fries. The fries were crispy and very good. That is the third time I had fries with a seafood entree while in FL and each time the fries were excellent. They know how to do fries in FL. The wife got the Tropical salad and liked it ($16). it was a huge bowl of greens, too much for one person. So she ate the good stuff and left a lot of the arugula and other greens. The kid had fish and chips and liked the fish, which was fresh and fried perfectly ($15). Our server, Ana, was professional, helpful, and efficient. Very good service. Overall, we had an excellent experience and we were happy to have found this place.

Me and my friend will never turn down a seafood spot, especially if they have lobster rolls, so we came across Snook Inn, and knew we had to come. I ordered the lobster roll which came with a side of chips. First off, the ambiance of this spot is great, and it was right by the water, so it was so pretty! My food was great. SO much lobster, which I always love. The chips were also very tasty, and there were so many. Snook Inn also had a little gift shop next to it, which I thought was cool, and I did pick up some items.

You wouldn't think of Snook Inn as having more than mere bar food, but you'd be wrong. I ordered the Shrimp & Scallop Scampi and got plate of extra large seared scallops and braised shrimp on a bed of spinach with one of the best tasting seafood sauces I've ever had. My partner had a ceviche with plantain chips he found to be supper wonderful. Located on the shore of a bay, the view and general ambience are great. My service was knowledgeable, friendly and top notch for local advice. With such delicious food, great service and such a wonderful shoreside location it's a Yelp 5 stars for me.

Inside seating with water view
Devin M.

Neat little place, pretty busy for a Monday. Atmosphere is very lively. We were told 35 minute wait and they were pretty spot on. Unfortunately, after being seated, nobody came to our table for 15 minutes until, Chris arrived. I think he knew that we had been waiting because he took our drink order and food order right away and was pretty prompt after that. I had the Blackened Mahi Mahi Tacos ($23): served with pico de gallo, shredded lettuce, shredded cheddar Cheese, avocado crema, black beans, and rice. The meal came with one trip to the "Famous" salad bar. I'm not sure what makes it famous, looked pretty average, but it was still a good starter. The tacos were a big hit. There were HUGE chunks of blackened mahi-mahi, it was seasoned excellently, and so dang good! The evening was a little bit of a bumpy start, but was positively turned around and ended up being an excellent meal. I would recommend Snook Inn. My only word of caution is they have many tables in the bar area, some are about 10 feet away from where the band plays so when they have live music, it gets super loud in there.

Grouper and chips
Amanda G.

Fun place. It was about an hour wait. We had some fun cocktails as we waited. They have a cute shop to look at also if you need some things. The dinner service was great our lady was so nice. We all ordered different things. If you order a meal you get a salad bar with it. It was a tasty treat and the pickles are so fun and yummy. This was a nice spot and the wait didn't seem long at all. My grouper was so good. And there was enough leftover I had it the next day. Worth the trip if you're in the area. Also parking can be hard

HOTTT sauce
Rocker 1.

Are dinner here. Great location on the water- very crowded and more like a cafeteria but the food was relatively good. Had the blacken grouper with side of string beans. Against my better judgement also had a pina colada. The best thing about the dinner was the hot sauce - very tasty. Quality 5 Quantity 5 Atmosphere 2 Parking 1 Service 3 Alcohol 2 Presentation 4 Taste 4 Value 4 Overall good place to each. Also had a bit of the fish and chips and it was superior to other F&C I had.

Lobster Roll with housemade chips
J N.

Loved it so much we went twice! The first time, I got the Lobster Roll and it was delish! My husband got the Seared Snapper and loved it, too. I tried a bite and it was so good. The weird best part...the salad bar! Potato salad is my favorite food and I rarely find potato salad that I love that's not my own homemade but the Snook Inn's is SO good! So good we went back just so I could get the salad bar and have endless salad/potato salad. And the homemade bread...I want more right now! Friendly servers. Don't listen to the bad reviews on here!

They do not post their drink menu online and was delighted to see such an extensive list. Our waitress said it changes quite a bit which is why they don't post it. We thought prices were in line with other restaurants on the island. We started with a caesar salad and arancini, both were good and portions were reasonable and what we expected. I had the shrimp and scallop risotto for an entree and the fish was cooked perfectly. Scallops can be tricky, but these were excellent. Risotto was creamy and delicious. Our friends raved about their salmon, also cooked perfectly. Large portion of fish as well. I wish we had time for dessert, but we will be back!!

The restaurant he usually goes to was packed, but as it turns out, that was a blessing in disguise. Just around the bend we found Pelican Bend, and I'm so glad we did. The parking lot had a handful of cars, and there were a dozen or so people scattered around tables and the bar--definitely felt like a laid-back spot where locals hang out. The setup is great: several rows of Adirondack chairs, an outdoor bar, about 10-12 umbrella-covered tables, and a screened-in porch with another bar and additional seating. Relaxed, coastal, and inviting. Our waitress, Sydney, was absolutely lovely--friendly, kind, and honestly one of the best servers I've had in a long time. She was very personable and made several recommendations, all of which were spot on. We started with the calamari, which can be tricky, but this was cooked perfectly. My dad ordered the seafood chowder and a wedge salad and loved both. I ordered the grouper sandwich with a side wedge salad. Between the calamari and the salad, I was so full I ended up taking the sandwich home--and it was still delicious the next day after a quick spin in the air fryer. If you're in the Marco Island/Isle of Capri area, definitely give Pelican Bend a try. Great food, top-notch service, and thoughtful touches too--the sun kept shifting, and the hostess even came over to rotate the umbrella for us. A really wonderful experience.

Tough place to locate because there is very little signage. We were able to find it after driving around a bit. We found a nice parking spot in the rear of the hotel that it sits beside. Upon entering the area where the music stage is set up, we noticed a decent crowd with everyone sitting and enjoying the music. The bar is inside where everyone goes to get a drink. The service was good...a couple of bartenders ready to help, if needed. The crowd was mainly older adults....ages 40-65 would be my guess. The music was good....all the hits from the Eagles to Nirvana to James Taylor. As a first timer, it was kind of confusing where to order food. However, I did not notice food being served. I did notice a small restaurant set up in a small seperate building but there was no one eating in there. I guess the bartenders take the order and then deliver the food. Would I go back? Not sure...not much happening that would attract me Vibe: laid back....easy going Drink Price: very reasonable Parking: for me, it was great but I could see people having issues Dress: key west casual 4 stars
