Fresh is everything to a seafood restaurant, especially ours, and we try our best to deliver fresh seafood to your table each and every visit. Local fishermen and crabbers leave our shores daily and guide their boats out into the Gulf of Mexico to fish on behalf of Pinchers. They return each night with the best that the Gulf has to offer. They bring this precious catch to us and are one of the primary reasons for our success. In 2007, we purchased the Island Crab Company on Pine Island to serve as a fresh seafood facility for our restaurants. By having our own local facility, we can deliver fresh fish and shellfish to the table faster and fresher – whether its Grouper, Blue Crab, Stone Crab or some of the wonderful fish that you’ll see h…

The menu was broad but basic. Nothing particularly creative or unique, just the standard seafood options you can find almost anywhere: fried fish baskets, crab cakes, shrimp platters, and a few sandwiches. The food itself was fine but not impressive — decent portions, but overall pretty average in flavor and presentation. Definitely not what I’d consider a high-end fish place.
For the price point, I expected something a little more refined — maybe some signature dishes, local sourcing, or a fresh twist on traditional favorites. Instead, it felt more like a tourist stop than a destination restaurant. Service was friendly, but even that couldn’t make up for the lack of originality on the plate.
It’s not bad if you’re just looking for a casual seafood meal and don’t mind paying a bit more for the location, but if you’re hoping for something special or memorable, you might leave a little underwhelmed.
Love our waitress, Megan. The food was really good, kid friendly, good prices for the quality as well.
Now on to the food. We had the boom boom shrimp appetizer, couldn’t even get a picture cause we inhaled it. I’d highly recommend trying them with the habanero hot sauce they’ve got on the table. I had the crab cake app cause I didn’t want sides, and the bbq shrimp(shrimp your way). Both were delicious! I’m a big fan of crab cakes and a lot of times, it doesn’t quite hit the spot- but this crab cake at Pinchers was excellent! I would go back again just for the crab cake.
My husband and I are both big fans of shrimp so we had shrimp dishes for lunch he got the beer which of course was two beers and I got the margarita.
We went here twice during our stay, the second time with friends.
Highly recommended I don’t think you can go wrong when you choose Pinchers. Pricing is fair and lots of food portions.
