Lazy Saturday afternoon with some friends that wanted the best seafood in the port and a chance to watch the cruise ships sail. Both had the Mahi and just loved it. I had shrimp fried and my lady had it steamed. The service was great even though they were packed and I cannot recommend this place enough. More

Our first choice, Seafood Atlantic, is closed Tuesday so we tried this place. We ordered the fried gator appetizer, two orders of the stuffed flounder and I had the crusted mahi mahi. Everyone seemed to like the gator bits although it had a wee bit too much seasoning. The encrusted mahi mahi was too encrusted with the bread crumb mixture... More

I was very excited to find triple tail fish on the menu. VERY disappointed when it arrived. NO flavor. The food here is very bland. The kitchen needs to add seasonings to the dishes. More

This is a good choice for happy hour in Port Canaveral. We had drinks and a couple entrees (fish tacos and fried fish), and was happy with all. The service was great and they had live music also. This was a much better choice than Millikens Reef (See my review), which is nearby. More

Went here for a late lunch around 3:00. Nice crowd. Started with a dozen raw oysters and they were great, i'll go back just for the oysters. I had the shrimp and clams..they were good but I would try something else next time. My wife had the fish and potatos and it was very good. All and all we will... More

Stopped in for a drink and conch fritters on a Sunday afternoon. Watched the cruise ships leave earlier and decided to stop in and check the place out. We ate on the outside deck and the Conch fritters were GREAT. The service was good and the food did not take long to arrive. There was a guy playing the steel... More

I was craving raw oysters so we decided on Rusty's for dinner b/c it looked within walking distance from the Radisson. It took probably a 25 min walk leisurely. $0.80 each during happy hour 3-6 pm. They tasted good but expect to get some plant life still attached to the shells. I ended up getting 2 dozen. They also have... More
