Mainely Seafood Cafe - Punta Gorda (FL)

5 /5 Gulf Coast Terry: Mainely Seafood Café I wanted a Lobster Roll, so we had to stop by and see what this place is all about. It’s at the right end of Turtle Crossings shopping plaza on Burnt Store Road. This place was neat and clean and very well organized. It is a Café and Market everything inside is simple but fits the décor of a Seafood establishment. We got there around 12 noon and surprisingly we were the only people in the place. Our server Brianna came over to our table took our drink orders fast. They do serve alcohol and soft drinks. For starters we ordered the Creamy Lobster Bisque Soup, a Beer, and some Wine. For the main dish I ordered the Lobster roll Meal with has a ¼ pound of Lobster served on a split top bun with Butter, Fries and Cole Slaw for about 24.00. You can get it cold with Mayo or hot with Butter. I got an alternate side of Onion Rings instead of Fries for 3.00 extra. My wife just ordered the same thing but with the Fries. Our soup came out first and it was very good. Our Lobster Rolls came out shortly afterwards. The looked amazing and they were. The roll was toasted and overflowing with Lobster the butter to pour or dip into was a nice addition. The Onion Ring were done perfect as was the Fries. Even the Cole Slaw was pretty good. Brianna was on the ball asking us if everything was all right and checking on us, but I do wish she was a little more cordial. This is one of them so called hidden little gems and I for one can’t wait to go back. Make sure you put this on your to do list. I must give this place a 5 out of 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Follow Me For Fun & Reviews Gulf Coast Terry

4 /5 D. C.: Absolutely delicious fish and chips here. We are from New England where the seafood is top notch in the country. Living in Florida now, finding good cod is difficult so we were happy to find this cute little place. The food is wonderful, the wait staff is good. I would have given five stars if the portion sizes were bigger (very small side of fries and a small piece of fish) and if they honored my birthday request of a combination plate of scallops and cod. The server asked the cook and he said no, he could possibly do a grouper combo plate but not with cod. I was willing to pay for it, it was my birthday and I wanted to splurge, but I guess the cook didnt want to be bothered. Well still be back if in the area but its an hour drive from home and we made the trip for my bday because the food is good. A nice dry, greaseless batter on the fish and the fries are great. Cole slaw was great, but again, portions are small. Hubby and I couldve both eaten 2 of their plates to compare to plates of seafood were used to in New England.

5 /5 Mariela Fuentes Pelaez: A very unassuming place with fresh food in a very casual atmosphere. This is a market and a cafe which great service. My husband had the clams which he loved. I had the lobster roll that came with a side of butter which was delicious. Perfect size…perfect taste. Definitely a great place for a quick meal…as long as you don’t mind sleeping like the food after!! Definitely worth it. We definitely recommend.

5 /5 Michael Kuhn: When we get an irresistible urge for New England style seafood we will drop everything we are doing and head for this little cafe offering scrumptious meals and appetizers. Meals are prepared authentically just like they are in Maine. Yum, yum, yum! You won’t be disappointed! Service is quick and meals are served promptly after ordering.
