15th Street Fisheries

First off, just know this restaurant has a small dock you can walk on and feed the tarpon some shrimp! Super cool! Food is great. Fries are crispy. Drinks are good. Would recommend to anyone visiting the area. Server was attentive and wasn't MIA when we needed him. We sat outside and enjoyed the live entertainment. Complementary valet parking. Right behind the Hilton Hotel at the marina (building with lights on the roof and green water is the view from our room, facing North) You can't access by foot from the hotel so you can either take the water taxi (Ft. Lauderdale Tour) or there is on-site parking. Cool place to visit.

I really wanted to rate this place higher, but there’s a huge thing that happened that I can’t ignore. First, the positives. I had the mahi and it was fresh and simply prepared and very delicious. The side Caesar salad was ‘lazy’ because you had to mix your own dressing into the lettuce. The Parmesan cheese shavings and croutons were very tasty. I wish the fish came with a lemon wedge, but it didn’t and our waitress never came back so I couldn’t ask for one. My husband had the Cuban sandwich and it was good but not great. The onion rings were fantastic. We ate outside and had a nice view and terrific weather. I downgraded this restaurant because I was about 10 feet behind a waitress and we both used the restroom at the same time. She was in the first stall by the door and I was a few away. She finished first and exited the restroom without washing her hands. To top it off, when I exited, I saw that she didn’t even flush. Double disgusting. So, that was our experience. Really decent food, but the no hand washing and no flushing grossed me out.

I’ve lived in Florida for over 40 years and can’t believe this was my first time at 15th Street Fisheries – what a gem! The atmosphere is amazing, with every table offering a great view of the water. We started with crab cakes and smoked fish dip, and the portions were so big we had to take our meals home. My wife’s Mahi tacos had huge, perfectly cooked pieces of fish (not just slivers!) and my grouper sandwich was massive and delicious. Easily a 10/10 experience – we’ll definitely be back!

Definitely a place I will come back. My partner and I are always looking for good food and great ambiance.. The clam chowder was one of the best we’ve tried. Everything was delicious. The server was great .

Really nice restaurant to go to and have great time. Food was really good, the service, the view and ambience was so pleasant. You can seat inside or outside, weather outisde was great with a breeze.

Thank you Big Mike and Dave! The Service we received today was beyond great! 10/10 Great customer service, outstanding communication skills, patient and very friendly. We didn't ask for anything. Everything was given as needed. Compliments to the Chefs and Staff .The food was so fresh and hot. Cooked with love ❤️ and seasoned to perfection. We will be visiting soon. Thank you!!

Another good casual waterfront dining in Ft Lauderdale to come back to! Typical bar food offering but with a gorgeous view of the ICW. Food was good and reasonably priced. Service was excellent and quick although it was lunchtime in the off season. Beware limited parking and valet only. Added highlight are the large tarpon swimming alongside our table waiting to be fed ;)

We had a great time eating dinner here. I mahi was very good. However the crab cakes and onion rings both tasted a little burnt and the onion rings were tough to bite through. They did not look burnt though, so we didn’t complain. Watching the people feeding the fish and then feeding them after we ate was very entertaining! They even have windows in the floors to see below. Definitely sit downstairs and outside! They have an upstairs that is more formal and requires reservations, but we sat downstairs at the more casual section of the restaurant. We had a great time!

Awesome!! How you cannot rate this place 5 stars is beyond me! Had dinner here with friends that I have know for over 45 years! They are the best anyone could ask for! The atmosphere is so energetic and fun and nicely decorated! The people working there in this frenetic environment are so friendly and helpful! The food is 5 plus stars! Every dish everyone had was deliciously spectacular!! The grilled fish to the baked seafood pasta was awesome! The richness of the baked seafood pasta was wonderful!! From the appetizers to the main courses to the desserts everything was spectacular! I had the miso covered sea bass and you have got to try it! The sea bass is so beautifully prepared and juicy cooked! It's the best! Please look at the pictures and let your eyes do the feasting!

15th Street Fisheries is becoming one of my favorite spots to enjoy a meal. They are located right on the water and if you're lucky you might be able to score an outdoor table so that you can see the various watercraft going up and down the canal. The food is always delicious here and the service is also outstanding. I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!

I visited 15th Street Fisheries with a large group and had a private room. Food- 5/5 I enjoyed most everything I tried. The jalapeño bread was unique, and had a kick but wasn't too spicy. My Moscow mule was sweet, tart, and minty. The calamari was very good, with larger than average rings and a nice sauce to dip them in (it was my favorite app). The crab cakes were also tasty but only 2 cookie sized cakes per order. Don't sleep on the Caesar salad. I'm not typically a salad guy but the salad was a home run with nice house made croutons, good portions of Parmesan cheese, and sun dried tomatoes. The salad really hit the spot. I ordered scallops which were extra large, cooked properly, and served with a creamy cauliflower puree. The puree wasn't my favorite and seemed like it should have been warmer (it was room temp at best). I would order a different entree if I came are here again. Service- 5/5 Our server managed our party well, was attentive, and kept the meal flowing while attending to our needs. Atmosphere-5/5 eating on the water felt like I was on a boat. This is a perfect date night setting or just a night out with coworkers or friends. Value- 4/5 While it wasn't cheap, the portions were large, the food was good, the service was professional, and the atmosphere was unique. Overall, I was happy with the experience.

The place is amazing for views along the ICW watching the boat boasting. Sitting on the dock can be a little windy so bring a light jacket. But some food for the kids to feed the fish at the dock.

We came with the family and the location has a great atmosphere with fish to feed, boats to watch, and a nice patio. Our service was great and was able to accommodate our group of 12 with separate tickets. We got: - mussels - conch soup - very good! - Joe's skillet - very good, temperature hot!

Stopped in for some dinner with a customer per his recommendation. Live music playing outside on the deck and a nice view of the water. Had to try the lobster roll and was as advertised. Good sized portion and great flavor. The peel and eat shrimp were pretty good as well for a starter. Ended with the key lime pie. That was the best finish! Will get this again next time I am in town.

Our server,Marcellus, outside on the patio was very personable, he had a great sense of humor. We had just come from eating elsewhere and walked here to see the tarpon. We ordered non alcoholic beverages, one margarita and two desserts. Marcellus treated us just as if we were a large ticket table. I had taken a bet and couldn't have dessert so I didn't get to try the key lime pie. It came with fruit, three meringue dollops on top and a raspberry sorbet. I was told it was good. An 8 1/2 out of 10 for flavor I was told. The berries were fresh too. A Sunday night here was busy, however not uncomfortably crowded. There is music playing, with the beautiful green water from the lights and tarpon swimming. People can purchase shrimp to feed the tarpon, which I am sure the tarpon are thrilled about. The restroom was maintained. The water taxi picks up and drops off here too. Enjoy!

Amazing atmosphere as always. Whenever we are in town we dine here despite the hefty price tag. My lobster roll was more of a lobster salad type-not chunks of lobster meat as I'm used to. Still, was delicious and a HUGE portion. Clam chowder was very good also. Amazing service from our young man. I'll update this if I remember his name. Pic of dock showing damage from explosion a few weeks earlier. My party also got coconut shrimp, sliders and fish and shrimp, all got good reviews.

Perfect location! Right on the water with a great view of the bridge. Absolutely beautiful! GET THE LOBSTER ROLL!! One of the best I've ever had. Lots of lobster meat in it and not a lot of mayo or filler - delicious! The drinks were good - not watered down. My husband said the burger was tasty (it's nice they have offerings for non-fish lovers). I always appreciate a kids menu especially when they have dry spaghetti noodles available (of course you can add sauce). The service was fabulous! I wish I remembered our servers name - he was great! He checked in often, was very friendly and attentive, and HUGE BONUS POINTS he engaged with my kids.

Best food we had in our 5 day stay in Fort Lauderdale. Have not been there in 20 years when it was a small shack on the side of the marina. We were pleasantly surprised with the renovations but still maintaining the ambience and food quality. Service was also excellent!

What a great waterfront restaurant! This is the perfect place to bring visitors, watch the boats go in and out, and enjoy some Florida seafood. We arrived shortly after 1pm on a Saturday and were told it was going to be a 40 minute wait, but it ended up being only 20 minutes! There are bars both inside and outside if you'd like to grab a drink while you wait. Sitting outside, there's not a bad seat in the house! We started with the smoked fish dip and calamari. I was impressed by the flavorful crispy breading on the calamari. Of our entrees, the Cuban sandwich was a bit disappointing, but the cheeseburger and fried grouper sandwich were hits! Both the appetizer and entree course took a bit longer than I would've expected to come out, but it was a busy Saturday afternoon. Our server checked on us often and kept our drinks full. Finally, the live music was amazing! The solo guitarist played everything from Tracy Chapman to Noah Kahan. I'll definitely be back to 15th street for another weekend lunch on the water. You just cannot beat the vibes!

Great for sea views, not great for sea food! Parking: there is no street parking easily available but they do offer complimentary valet that is relatively quick. Drinks: they have a decent bar. Nothing stands out. Food: this is where this place falls down. I asked the server what was best. His response was "anything with Mahi Mahi"". So we got Mahi Mahi fish tacos, the wahoo fish dip and shrimp tacos. The fish dip was pretty tasty. However, they entrees were terrible. First they were assembled in a way that was so messy! Then after you managed to grab hold of the tacos and and eat them, they were terrible. Zero taste whatsoever. They had all the right ingredients but zero flavor. I feel like it was similar to eating printer paper (though I've never tried)! Service: service was ok. I was a bit confused when we asked for to go containers. It is as if they never heard the question before. Maybe no one wants to take their bland food home with them... Atmosphere/vibe: great atmosphere as this place is right on the water. Folks are pulling up in their private boats. The views are beautiful. They had a live band that was just okay. Ambiance: casual vibe Bathroom: not terribly clean but it dirty. Certainly not fancy. Return: nope

This is a split review in hopes that the kitchen will help the front of the house. The vibe and atmosphere of this place is great - the outside patio dining is really great. But, yes there is a but, the food is not as good. I had the Cubano and it was over-toasted, poorly assembled so the pickles were in only two bites and was missing the brown mustard tang too. My wife's fish special was the crusted mahi and it was overcooked and very dry. If the kitchen can reset, this place will never have an open table.

15th St. fisheries was not up to par for such an expensive restaurant. The food was not the quality of $40-$50 entrée the drinks not so good.one of our meals had too much soy sauce. I don't plan on bringing family back as there are so many other restaurants in the area.

Stopped by for lunch. On arrival we were quickly seated even though we were a large party. The service was very attentive. What I like to see was that other servers or staff members didn't hesitate to help out when needed. I had the lobster salad roll. The roll was loaded with lobster and crab filling. The very tasty and well seasoned. I could actually see the lobster! No complaints here. Everyone absolutely enjoyed their order. Prices are reasonable. We were on the outside seating which was lovely watching all the water activities. Great location. I will definitely be back.

This was a complete surprise. As the experience here was so much better than expected. I knew the original owner of the restaurant many, many moons ago, when it was a standout and one of "the" places everyone went to for a good meal as well as to see and be seen in Fort Lauderdale. After he passed away, the restaurant was taken over by his son. That was the last time I was there --again many years ago. At that time, we did not have a good meal or a good dining experience, so I hadn't been back here in over 30 years. Maybe longer. Fast forward to the beginning of this week, when I received an invitation from two friends who used to be in the hospitality industry. They get together each month with a group of ladies with the same work background. And this month, they were going to be meeting here. It sounded like fun, so I accepted and figured I could live through a not so good meal. Well, it turned out to be a very good time -- food wise as well as company wise. The restaurant is located at the end of the street and right up against the waterway with a marina and boats. There was only valet parking, but it was free (except for a tip, of course). We each ordered something different -- from sandwiches to mussels to seafood salads. Everyone seemed to really enjoy their lunch. We sat inside as it had been rainy, but we still had a lovely view of the water and boats. And we had good service especially since it was a nice sized group with all different orders and separate checks. I learned that the restaurant had been sold a few years back. I had their grilled salmon entree. I chose a Caesar salad as my side. The fish was perfectly cooked. The salad was very good. It had sun dried tomatoes mixed in. I shared a piece of their key lime pie for dessert. It was the authentic kind -- not overly sweet -- and quite good, as well. So a good meal at very decent lunch prices overlooking the water. Who could ask for anything more in Fort Lauderdale? I will be back again, soon.

Don't eat upstairs. You will wait forever for service and the food is mediocre. We waited for over an hour to get our appetizers. The shrimp cocktail is awful. Don't order it. I had the Cesar salad, just ok. The Thai curry snapper is bland. No flavor at all. My husband had filet and it was good but over cooked. He got lobster tail on top and it was good. Over all I would NOT recommend the upstairs at 15 th street fisheries. Sloooow service and mediocre food.

Came in for a weeknight business dinner and got a nice table upstairs overlooking the water. Service was great. Menu is decent, lots of seafood options and even a couple non-seafood for those looking for turf more than surf. We went on a Tuesday night and they were offering all bottles of wine for half off, which was an excellent deal! They have a really nice wine list, with all the top names in reds and some popular whites as well. The items we all ordered were really tasty and perfectly prepared. Save room for dessert as they have a nice list of those as well. Would definitely return!

We always enjoy 15th Street Fisheries. We have dined upstairs, which is pricier and more formal than downstairs. In July we dined downstairs for my son's birthday. It was during the eeek so it was quiet and there was no wait. We sat outside and had a great view of the water. We ordered a variety of items including fish dip, fish sandwiches, and catch of the day, which was swordfish. Everything was solid. The best part about 15th Street Fisheries are the tarpon. You can buy shrimp at the little store next door and feed huge tarpon. My kids love to do this and it would be a great activity for tourists.

We stopped in for dinner during the middle of the week and were able to be seated at the upstairs bar without a reservation. We used Uber to get to the restaurant so did not have to worry about parking or driving as we planned on having drinks. There was only 1 other couple seated at the bar, so we received excellent service. We sat near the window so we could look at the water and all the fish down below. We ordered a few things to try so could split and everything was amazing! I would definitely return.

If you have any dietary restrictions DO NOT go to this restaurant. No vegetarian options or accommodations for dietary restrictions. While I have been to this restaurant many times, half of the those I had to beg for an accommodation, but today I was too tired for that so I ended up taking the only option of two sides and making my dish on the table myself. I had rice and green beans sides and that was my Saturday dinner meal at a landmark restaurant in Fort Lauderdale. When talking to the manager Scott about my frustration I was offered the excuse that the kitchen was too busy, which is a very lame excuse because I didn't ask any extraordinary dish. All I asked was to have my rice and vegetables mixed with a teriyaki sauce. How busy is the chef that they can not do that simple ask for a paying customer, because I'm not eating there for free, and the times they were able make that change I paid $20 for that dish when each side is $6. I never complained though, because I was grateful for the accommodation. What makes me more disappointed is how come sometimes they can do it and sometimes they can't? That lack of consistent is horrible for regular customers who are there supporting your business all the time (in my case for the last time tonight) Scott, the manager, listened to my suggestions, bragged about his 45 years of experience managing restaurants but has not apologized once. It's 2024. It's time for restaurants to start being more inclusive of different dietary restrictions. Would be also great to see a restaurant manager to be more humble and take charge of their business, and do their job well done. Scott didn't seem to care about a one customer request or feedback but I hope other managers can be a lil more empathetic.

The food was extremely fresh and well-cooked. This isn't your cheap side seafood place, they make great food and even better, was our server. He was extremely attentive to us. The vibe was family friendly (we went on a Sunday during a dolphins game) and relaxing. I love that you can bring your boat and eat right on the dock. It was also fun to see the fish o through the underground green lights. Huge tarpons! At the outdoor dockside restaurant are, you can buy frozen shrimp to throw in and feed the tarpons. You can see tarpons eat and jump for your shrimp. Also, lots of cat fish hang out here, too. I'll rate the upstairs interior dining restaurant next time I visit!

Always a treat to stop here and feed the Tarpon . The expanded seating in front of the store was a hit , our server was great , Martini was well crafted and the calamari was very good .... So why only a 3 .... The presentation of the tuna was left lacking , huge empty plate w tuna and a baked potato. Make the plate appetizing , we eat first with our eyes and this just didn't do it . The pasta Alfredo was fresh and creamy . Also the server had tables in the traditional area they weren't using to seat people in the wind on the area in front of the store. Think of your customers experience as you fill tables , more care could have been taken to earn a higher rating.Our server worked hard but the rest of the team let her down.

Great atmosphere and good food. Blackened Mahi Sandwich was super yummy. I would bypass the Clam Chowder and the Fried Gator. Definitely wait for an outside table before sunset. Order a glass of crisp Sauvignon Blanc and relax.

We came here the night before a cruise. I was really looking forward to good seafood. First of all the service was incredibly slow. It took about 90 minutes to get our food and it was a fairly empty Wednesday night. We started with the shrimp and grits appetizer. The shrimp was cooked well. We've had better grits but they were still ok. My son got the conch soup and Said it was good. I got the sea bass. It was pretty good. Things went downhill from there. I splurged and added a lobster tail to my dinner- it was cold, rubbery and flavorless. My son got the snapper. The rice that it was on was very tasty but the fish itself was overcooked and dry. My husband doesn't like seafood so he got the pork chop. It was very dry and didn't have much flavor. After reading all the great reviews we had such high hopes and were very disappointed.

This restaurant is located on the pier and had such a great view of the ocean and the boats nearby. The menu focuses on seafood and the food itself was very delicious. My favorite was the mahi mahi sandwich. The customer service was fantastic, the waiter was very helpful and friendly, one of the best I've ever had.

We came here on Thursday night. Very nice location and beautiful view. Place is very romantic and nice. Service was great, and friendly. I didn't realize the menu downstairs and upstairs is different. I think downstairs you can get cheaper things like sandwiches. We were upstairs and that wasn't an option. They had few non alcoholic drink options. My husband had shrimp pasta and was amazing. I had red snapper and was pretty delicious as well. We had clam chowder for the appetizer. For the dessert we had chocolate brownie which was absolutely amazing. We loved the food so much! Definitely amazing high quality food. It is very old school place with very nice vibe, place is very quiet as well. Definitely recommend.

Nice place on the water Lousy service !!! Ordered chowder for app ... COLD Party of 7 6 dinners brought out 1 missing! 6 sitting politely and waiting for the last dinner!!!!! Finally got server ... her excuse ... my fault I forgot to push the button on that one Shit service Ruins the night A lot better places in Lauderdale to spend a few hundred bucks

Back again, due to the storm. Our hop on hop off boat said it was too dangerous to go up the river, so they let everyone off here. Quality/Quantity - Islamorada Ale - Just what I needed. New England Style Clam Chowder - Salty; it was just okay. Atmosphere - Huge location. Indoor and outdoor spaces. Indoor table, bar, and upstairs dining. Cool decor throughout, see pictures. Gift shop next door. Open 7 days a week from 11:30am to 9:30pm. Small parking lot. Live music on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Feeding the Tarpon fish is an experience, I recommend it for all to try, especially if you have small children. Sorry, I did not take any pictures. Service - Good, both times we were here. Actually, the bartender was GREAT on our second visit during the storm; hence the 5 star review! Price - $6 a beer, good price. $9 for clam chowder + generous tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1978

Service was excellent. Food outstanding. Had the shrimp and Caesar salad Enjoyed the Caesar dressing. Highly recommend. They made my day. Of course enjoyed watching the boats.

Excellent food, service, waterfront location and live music entertainer! Perfect evening out and reasonable priced. Loved it!

One of my favorite restaurants for celebrating a special occasion. They are expensive but I think they are so worth it. Everything we have had is always delicious. The drinks and and food have always hit the spot. The view is fantastic it's awesome to watch all the boats off the intercostal. Our servers have always been sweet and attentive. I definitely recommend this place for any special occasion.

Lovely spot. What a view! It was a rainy evening so we ate inside and upstairs. Had a nice table by the window. Excellent service. 50% off bottles of wine on the night we were there. The salmon was excellent. Everyone enjoyed their food. Also note-- free valet! Nice!

second time at this spot. First time we ate downstairs and left us feeling meh and underwhelmed. fast forward to this trip I made a reservation for the upper restaurant NOT realizing it was the same place from our 2022 visit. On arrival there is complimentary valet as parking is hard at the end of the road area the restaurant is. I'm so glad I made this mistake as the upper dining room is worlds better (food/ambiance). We had a water view table in the back room and were met with drinks and menus. Husband ordered fresh Grouper and I had the scallops with orzo pasta. Both were fresh, full of flavor and not overly seasoned or oily. Kids menu was expansive enough for our picky eaters and coloring menus kept them happy. Service was a little slow for our taste on a light Tuesday night at 8pm and by the time we had dinner and she pried us for dessert it was 9:20 and we were over it. I would recommend for those who want fresh large servings with bright flavors and interesting compositions.

Came here to celebrate my niece's 18th birthday. The food was surprisingly good. I looked at the menu prior to coming and it seemed basic but the food was good. The Ambiance was nice and relaxing with all the fishes. The service was good. We fed the fishes in the water and boy were they active.

My second visit!! I shared my experience I had here with my best friend and she was dying to come here.. so here we are enjoying the breeze, the scenery, and of course the food. Service was fast, our wait time was only 10 minutes. We arrived after 4:30, so there's a crowd but service is fast. I ordered the calamari, alligator bites, and the fried shrimp!! Sooo delicious and fresh! My friend order the calamari, conch fritters, and fried grouper sandwich. She love it!! I told her to promise me not to bring anyone here (lol)... this will be our spot to unwind and enjoy the scenery! Like always.. I will return.

We went to this restaurant based solely on Yelp reviews (yay!) and we absolutely LOVED it! I love the history of the building being a former fishery on an active marina in beautiful Fort Lauderdale. The building has been modernized but still pays homage to historical boating, fishing, and a variety of other sea-inspired photos and paintings giving it an upscale yet casual and comfortable vibe. The food might've been "fishing" for compliments, and earned them! From the cheddar biscuits that reminded me of Red Lobster biscuits only smaller and better free on the table to the appetizer crab cakes that melted in your mouth. I had the swordfish which was perfectly cooked, flavor was on point, not a fishy anything, and juicy bite after bite reminded me of my childhood restaurant Anthony's in San Diego. Presented on a bed of crab fried rice made it a hearty meal, worth every penny. Don't worry if you don't like seafood, they had other options on the menu. Our dessert looks basic, but don't let it fool you. The chocolate rich brownie and caramel was just sweet and salty enough to satisfy, and the star was the toasted coconut sprinkled on ice cream making it feel like a dessert deserving of an island vacation. After dinner, we ventured to the back of the restaurant where you can pay $5 for a bag of frozen shrimp and feed the tarpon fish. There was a ton of them and feeding them was even more fun than it sounded. It was a chill vibe outside with people enjoying happy hour and a gift shop of Florida and local favorites tot and home tangible memories of a dream dinner and dream vacation. We will definitely be back to 15th street!

This is such a lovely location for a special occasion or celebration. I've been here about four times and have yet to be disappointed by the food or service. Everything is impeccably perfect each time. The seafood is fresh and succulent leaving you savoring each bite. They give such a cute little dessert for your birthday on the house as well. They have a variety of seats with different views, ask for one overlooking the water for a peaceful view.

Amazing food and service. The drinks were delicious and all of the staff were very friendly. The complimentary bread was very good and the butter was even better. The snapper was very tasty and the filet mignon was "melt in mouth!" We celebrated a birthday and was brought complimentary ice cream and a lit candle. Will definitely be back, a south Florida classic!

My husband and I ate here in November or 2023 and absolutely loved it. Awesome fish sandwich and service. As a result of our experience in 2023, we planned this as our restaurant to eat at pre-cruise in March of this year. We were excited and didn't mind the wait since we thought the quality of food and service would be worth it. Unfortunately, this time we found the service very choppy. There seemed to be no organization and no one even knew which table they had. We let that go, because again we were excited to get great food, or so we thought. This time we ordered alligator bites, which were served hot and they were great. However, when we got to our main course, which was the grouper sandwich, it was not hot and fresh tasting. It was not crispy, lime fresh fried and the buns had a stale taste. We were hungry so we ate and then decided we would try somewhere else the next time we were back in town. Very disappointing, as we had looked so forward to this meal based on last year's meal. Hoping the company improves efficiencies and gets back to great food. We did enjoy the laid back atmosphere and being in the water, as well as walking around the dock while we waited.

Came back, this time ate at the more casual part outside. Had so much fun sitting by the water watching the tarpon, cat fish, and Jack's swim and eat. I had the calamari for app and the seafood skillet. The skillet is a lot of food. It's heavy but packed with flavor. It has huge fish chunks, tiny scallops, artichokes, and a few shrimp. Loved the creamy sauce. Our server was super attentive, friendly, and knew the menu perfectly.

Beautiful view for an early meal before seeing a play at broward center, the lemonade was delightful. The mussels and their seasoning were excellent my boyfriends fish was also very flavorful.

Nice view, however the place gets very crowded on Saturdays. Food is decent but expensive, which you expect for a seafood restaurant on the intercostal in FTL. It does get very loud with the number of people at the bars and the live music. A good place to experience, but not some place that I would go to more than once a year.

First, there are some things to know about this place. Parking your car there seems impossible. We took an Uber but the car situation was a hot mess. They do have valet though. There are 2 different restaurants on site so be mindful of that when you check in. We got lost in the system and had to figure out a gameplan on the fly but the staff helped and it all worked out. Downstairs restaurant has a lot of dockside favorites, lobster roll, fried seafood, fish sandwiches and fresh catch platters to name a few. But that was not what we came for.... The upstairs restaurant has a more upscale menu. We started with a bowl of clam chowder, it was creamy, the clams and potatoes were cooked perfectly and it was seasoned well. I had the crab cakes special. The crab cakes were perfectly cooked, light, fluffy and satisfying. Hubs had the in-season stone crab and lobster mac. I didn't try the stone crab but he cleaned the plate so I'll take that as a sign of approval. The lobster Mac was ridiculously cheesy and rich. Everything you want from that dish. Ah-mazing! Our waitress was so friendly and brought us a little bit of ice cream to celebrate our anniversary! Great place to celebrate!

This was our first time to 15th Street Fisheries. It's a beautiful restaurant. Be sure to make a reservation. It gets very busy. After a brief wait, we were seated outside on the water. It was fun to watch the swimming fish in the large pool. Families with children were enjoying feeding the fish. They are known to bite so beware if you plan to feed them. Our server arrived quickly. The menu is very small. Our food came quickly. My husband ordered fried shrimp and I had crab cakes and clam chowder. We enjoyed our meals.

Good vibes! Only meals we go there for grouper sandwhich w onion rings and conch salad.

Originally we had made a reservation for upstairs, but after comparing the menus, we decided to take a seat downstairs, outside. We were seated right next to the water, and it was a great ambiance! The service was great. In terms of food, some dishes were really good & others, not so much. The food: Calamari: 2/5, I would not recommend their calamari. It was over cooked and difficult to eat. Blackened salmon: 3.5/5, cooked perfectly and seasoned well. For the price, however, the piece of salmon is very small. If you're hungry and order just this, it probably would not be enough. Lobster roll: 5/5, the only menu item I would say is a must. It was the perfect size, flavorful, and full of lobster. It was a great price too for the amount of lobster! The lobster was cooked perfectly & it was such a fresh dish. Service: 5/5, service was great! Our server was attentive, friendly, and very helpful. He constantly checked on us and cleared our table throughout our meal. Overall, its a beautiful restaurant with great service. Just be particular about what dishes you order as some are not so good.

I enjoyed my visit here. Sitting outside was a beautiful experience, and as a bonus we got to see people feeding the Tarpon right below us. We got the conch fritters (just okay, I wouldn't get them again), the shrimp tacos (good) and the fried shrimp plate (excellent- the shrimp had a light, crispy batter and tasted very clean). Our sides were the slaw and onion rings which were both very good. Next time I would get the clams appetizer!

7 of us all left with smiles tonight, the service and food was on point and we were taken care of with a friendly staff. Finished the night off feeding the tarpon and will definitely be back
