Best

The stuffed lobster was just amazing and the delicious oysters, all I can say is wow overall this restaurant is a 5 Star including management and staff.

Worst

First, the restaurant is in a rather bad part of town on the river and I would not recommend going there at night. We went during the day and it was ok. Second, my family is lat...

Worst Service EVER! 3/17/2011

Worst seafood restaurant I have ever been to. The service was slow the food had no flavor. It was the worst service ever. I would have been better off going to Red Lobster. For everyone who has written a review about this and thinks the food is good then you must be crazy. I ordered a lobster that they claim was 2 pounds and when I got it, it dident even look like it had a pound to it. My mother also ordered the same thing and hers was small. My father ordered a dolphin sandwich which was not very good as he says and my grand mother ordered the jumbo shrimp. The shrimps looked no bigger than a quarter and it was only 5 of them. The yellow rice had no flavor and it was cold. So were the potatoes. Our bill came out to 130 plus. It was NOT worth it. The waiter was also not attending to us or anything. I would not recommend to anyone. more

I visited this place with an girl friend on try or die basis,the place in itself was good looking and well populated and staff were very good indeed.The establishment was busy we soon got a seat and attention, a girl served us,so we just ordered our meal and were given a bottle of blue water which we were charged for but that is the way it is with so called spring water,so along came our meal in good time for a busy place and it was fine, my girlfriend told me the side dish we had looked like it had been run over tosterones or something like that (lol) but my upset was the US Sixth Fleet seemed to want to anchor as we were eating, yes boats can be noisy but this guy in one boat must have been using kerosene the fumes were terrible and when he was told he didn't seem embarrased but if I had a rough engine like he had and also a lovely girl in bikini laying on the top maybe getting your head bit off was worth it ,so to finish maybe the can moor the boats across the river and get a little boat to ferry it could work but I would be wary next time if I went there. more

.... que desprestigien la calidad del servicio y la comida, metiendole la mano (robandole), en el bolsillo al cliente por una o dos ( como en mi caso) botellas de agua.Festejamos el cumpleanos de mi senora y salimos contentios con el servicio y la comida, ademas del lugar, pero nos sentimos robados por algo que nos impusieron sin que lo pidamos, y que ademas no consumimos. Espero que lean este comentario, porque no es el unico en este sentido. y en mi caso, no solo se los voy a enviar a Uds. sino que tambien lo voy a enviar al Nuevo herald y los semanarios argentinos como para alertar a la gente que este pensando en ir a comer a su restaurant, que tengan cuidado con este tipo de ROBO. Que lamentable!!!!!\r Orlando more

Never been trapped by a restaurant like this and have read that it happens all the time...\r \r They ask if you want water, but what they mean is bottled water for which they will charge you without mentioning it.\r \r They work you here.\r \r My lunch was mediocre at bet. more

The food is absolutely delicious and the prices are fair enough. The place is very simple, and I guess the only thing they have to improve is the service. If you are looking for a good place to eat, and you are not looking for fancy, this is it!!!!! more

Look, I am a foodie, I was raised on gourmet food and know what is good and what is not. My father was also a fisherman most of my life so I grew up on the freshest of the fresh. Swordfish and tuna was never short in our household\r \r THIS WAS ONE OF THE WORST MEALS IN MY ENTIRE LIFE! Mcdonalds is better...If I could leave zero stars I would. If you want to know what REAL seafood is then check my review with photos of Seafood Atlantic in the Cape.\r \r Anyway, I saw this market on chef vs. city and thought while home visiting I would take my mom since you just can't find good seafood in South Florida much anymore it is just overpriced junk. Well this was no different. The only thing close to good was the seafood dip. Then came conch fritters, they were so small and fried to a crisp the only thing that was good on that plate was the cocktail sauce and grape tomatoes. \r \r My mom ordered GRILLED snapper with a side salad. The salad was the only thing good about that meal and anyone can toss baby greens and blue cheese together. Her fish as not grilled, it was breaded and pan friend. It was so thin I barely saw it on the plate. It was not fresh and was extremely dry, oh and COLD. Now on to the 'warm' seafood salad that was luke-warm that I had. It was drenched in awful sauce that I still can't get the taste out of my mouth. Smothered in what seemed to be canned crab meat and the greens it was on were in a soup of the sauce it was far from a salad, it was soup. The clams in it were so fishy I spit them out and the hearts of palm were from a can or bottle. Their bread, that they claim is famous and "cuban" tasted like stale garlic bread you get out of the freezer section at Publix. We left the food and ate maybe 4 fork fulls only because we were starved. I looked around and was completely stunned people are paying up to 40 dollars a dish for this garbage that a 3 year old can make better. Maybe their fish market is good but to sit down and eat you better cook it at home.\r \r Now on to the service. I noticed since we didn't use any Spanish at the table we got crappier service. We sat for 15 minutes before getting asked if we wanted drinks and when we were asked the guy was so arrogant and acted like we were bothering him. 15 minutes after we got the apps we asked where the food was and they gave some bs they were waiting for us to finish these crappy conch fritters. 5 minutes later the meals came out. Nobody came back to ask if we wanted anything or how it was. Our waiter was far more attentive to someone behind us that came on a boat. Very very rude. I should not have left a tip. The bill was an outstanding 60.00 for 2 people ! I left 6 dollars but he deserved 2 pennies. Perhaps Miami doesn't know good food. Sad, I invite anyone to come to Cape Canaveral to experience real seafood. more

Pick your atmosphere, downstairs cafe style, casual out on the deck or the cool upscale upstairs. Family owned with consistent quality. \r \r I enjoy the upstairs. The decor is very cool.\r \r The food is quite good. The prices are a little high for an iffy neighborhood on the river, but I think it is worth it. more
