Fisherman’s Wharf Steak and Seafood

Almost perfect. Great atmosphere, great customer service. Overlooking the water. Quiet. Food was amazing. One of my favorites at any seafood place I’ve been is blackened catfish. This was by far the best I’ve ever had. Really flavorful and cooked perfectly. Fries could have been in a little longer but we’re still nice.

The food here is amazing! We ordered the steak and shrimp and the rib eye was so big neither of us could eat it all so we packed it up to go. The price is worth the quantity and quality of the food! This steak is way better than any other steakhouse in town, I believe this is the best steak I have ever had! The outside atmosphere is awesome! I am ready to plan our next date day here!

My family and I decided to eat at Fisherman’s Wharf last night. There were 11 of us (so a larger group). There were 4 hostesses all sitting around at the front. They asked us inside, outside or first available. We said first available. They said 45 min! It was a Monday night!!! Ok, I understand it’s summer and tourist season. So we waited. And took a walk along the geese-​poop covered deck, only to see an large amount of open tables outside. Obviously there was not a seating issue but a staffing issue. We were seating right at our 45 minutes — outside. It was very warm despite all the outdoor fans. We started with the combo appetizers and some wings. Neither were very good, just average appetizers. Then we ordered dinner. Our drinks and appetizers came out in such a timely fashion that we were caught off guard at how LONG it took for our dinners to arrive. Almost and hour after ordered!!!
I had the seafarers platter and my husband had the bacon wrapped grilled shrimp. His was much better than mine. The only thing good on my platter were the fries and the fried fish. My friend said his grilled grouper was excellent. We ordered dessert (only because it was a birthday and we needed to sing or we would have left due the time). The carrot cake was amazing!!! I would skip dinner and just do the carrot cake. It was moist and very large. Good for a family to share.
The reason I gave two stars instead of one was the staff was very friendly. Our waitress was extremely polite. And the carrot cake.

We have visited this establishment approximately 5 times and it seems as though it is operated on autopilot. Always busy because it has a great location and I believe that at one time it was «the place to go». Now, I don’t believe that I would visit it again or recommend it to anyone.
The server Ashley was adequate but doesn’t have any people skills. Young, attractive and seems to be energetic she darted from one table to the next. Would have been nice to be engaged a little but I understand that numbers were the name of the game and evidently she does too. Well, I tipped the minimum but she would have had a bigger one had she taken the time to explain the dishes or make recommendations.
My blackened grouper was shoe leather. Over seasoned and thin it was cooked long enough that you had to cut it with a knife. Grilled shrimp were ok but nothing to entice me to order them again. When you have to cut fish with a knife it is way overdone.
My wife’s dinner was good, don’t remember the type of fish but she had the new potatoes with it and she did say it was good.
The décor is old, dusty and boring. I get it that it is on the water and you want a nautical them but every place needs to be updated.

Food was great! Service was fast! Waitress was friendly and professional! If you have kids I suggest eat outdoors. The ducks and geese would be happy for a treat lol!

Excellent seafood! I had oysters and shrimp tacos with sweet potato fries and everything was spectacular. We had a rowdy group with 9 kids and the staff was amazing. Everything was plates beautifully and there was so much food! Mango coleslaw was bland.

Generally speaking the atmosphere and food options are waterside cliches. We arrived around 6:30 and waited an hour to be seated. There were geese that the kids could feed and this kept them entertained most of the wait.
Once seated, we ordered raw oysters and some cheese sticks (for the kids) as starters. They came out quick and were above average. This gave me a good first impression of a meal that ultimately didn’t deliver. Unfortunately, after waiting over an hour for our entrees, the anticipation of delicious food was overshadowed by the extremely long wait. I ordered stuffed flounder, recommended by our server, with veggies. Fish was okay but vegetables were bland. My wife ordered stuffed, bacon wrapped shrimp. Sounds amazing but didn’t deliver. Bacon and shrimp were over cooked. My daughter ordered their «famous» crab cakes. I would say these were below average. The fries that came with cakes were tasty. My son’s kids simp was as expected. Frozen popcorn shrimp fried with ruffle chips.
Our servers were excellent. They were apologetic about the long wait. Apparently, one of the cooks went on break and never returned. This combined with an unanticipated number of customers led to the long food wait.
You are paying for the view and atmosphere. Sadly, it just wasn’t worth the three hour debacle. Red Lobster would have been a better choice if you were in the mood for a stereotypical sea food meal.
