pretty crowded , but they had a cool service that text you when your table was ready. Great drinks, only negative was my chicken was a little too black and the vegetables with my dish were bland.

Andrea LeTard

Good lunch with extensive menu. Firecracker shrimp is good. Drinks are weak... We asked for an Ezra shot in big margarita and bloody Mary . Awesome night time spot... Take friends here for party time!

Jamie Lynn

Fun outdoor spot with live music on the roof! Tuna dip with crackers and mozzarella sticks (balls) were a yummy snack . Togo drinks that you can take on a walk on the pier

Elizabeth Dorff

Love this place for drinks at Club Bimini on the roof. Great view , good to start your night or end up here later!

Steve Lee

The oysters are delicious, the salads are great. The scenery is awesome.

Angela Reynolds

Best party spot on the harbor !

Vatche Arabian

A little expensive , but good food and atmosphere. The fried Mahi Mahi was excellent.

Derdere Derdere

Po'boy with shrimp was delicious. Servers were kind, ambiance is nice. Good place to have a nice dinner .

The blackened cobia fillet topped with shrimp and Cajun cream sauce is spicy without making your eyes water. Squeeze a little extra lemon juice over your fish to balance things out if it seems salty. Read more

The woo woo drink was great. Pretty cool that you get a free cup but I'm glad I didn't have to pay extra for it, it might not last long "it's not clink clink hard" more like 2 solo cups stacked.

Matt Ellmer

So awesome truly one of the best if not the best food we ate all week. The Bimini bash was and is awesome.

The restaurant is right on the Harbor and has a great atmosphere. The food and drinks are really good.

Nicole Tankovich

Happy hour special : 1 doz fresh raw oysters for $7.95, Mon to Fri 11 am to 6 pm. The oysters were huge and delicious!

Jovetta Slater

Try the She-Crab Soup and the Firecracker shrimp !

Jill W

Sit downstairs & inside for a nice view with ac . The seafood bucket for 2 is $72...but easily fed my 2 teenage boys and hubby's jumped in and ate a ton.

Carly Karas

Oysters are delicious and the best time to go is during the fishing rodeo in October!

Lauren Dixon

Oysters are huge and delicious. Crab legs are fantastic. Great drinks.

Will Miller

Food is good. Amazing harbor view . A little pricey for what it is.

Mengzhi Wu

The baked potato in size and taste was far superior than the rest of the seafood platter combined. Shrimp , scallops , mussels in tiny watered down bowel, dry mahi , veges worse than frozen. Sad :(

Joe P

Great place for drinks and entertainment or if u want to b seen! Forget the grub!

Adam Atiqullah

Bleh. Food is very average and like all seafood $$$.You would probably get the same quality food at Joe's Crabshack or some other chain. It is nice that the place is open air and on the water though..

Mandi Maganzini

Roll Tide Roll! Great place to watch the bama game when they're playing FLORIDA!

G T

Great seafood . Oysters ????????

Becky McDaniel

Go to the bar on Sunday nights 4-8pm to watch Jones and Company perform . That is my reason for going. Great place to see the sunset as well . Food was pretty good but overpriced.

Joe C

Nice big screen to watch sports . Good idea moving stage for performers . Way too many annoying cigarette smokers though. Ruins a potentially great venue.

Alex Perkins

Perfectly cooked seafood bucket , right on the peer, great place for families (which makes it a bit noisy )

Octavia Nasr

"Firecracker Shrimp is yummy... It is sweet, spicy and delicious!" So says my Chef in training Aya (11 yrs old)

ᴡ Lam

oysters are so good!

Gretchen Schott

The steamed crab is amazing! Totally worth the trip!

David Rodriguez

3rd Floor is great with open roof... Food was great and tasty...

Jordan R

Caution: crab cakes look larger in the picture than they are in real life. Good drinks.

George Nenni

Best and biggest oysters on the gulf, eat 'em until you bust!

Tess S

It can get really windy! Be prepared to hold your beer non-stop...which you should be anyway

Danielle Shepherd ☀️????⭐️

Ask for a cozy to keep your beer cold, it's a cool souvenir and it's free!!!!

????Yana F????

The oysters are pretty big and taste yummy with AJ's hot sauce !

Shane Graham

Good food, service and very reasonable prices.

Fried mozzarella is a must get!

Steven Eikenbary

Want to pay outrageously for poor quality good? This is your place! Got the Run of the Kitchen (4-5 kinds of fried seafood ), and the best thing on my plate was French fries .

Seth Vong

Great place for people watching . Food wasn't bad either

Pancho Casas

Good place!!! Seafood excellent

Leon van Maurik
