Reviews
Our table ordered a mix of tacos, shrimp scampi, a poke bowl, and the mahi mahi, and everything was fresh and flavorful. The mahi mahi was perfectly cooked and flaky, the shrimp scampi had great flavor without being too heavy, and the poke bowl tasted fresh and well-balanced. The tacos were a hit too — simple, fresh, and done right.
Service was friendly and upbeat, even though it was busy. The only reason for four stars instead of five is that the wait was a little long and it can get pretty loud during peak times resulting in some missed menu selections on an order. But overall, the food, views, and atmosphere make it absolutely worth it. We’d definitely come back next time we’re in Port Canaveral.
From the moment we walked in, the vibe was perfect—waterfront views of the port, a lively yet relaxed atmosphere, and that classic Florida tiki bar energy. We were seated in like 10 minutes and greeted by our server, Gerald, who was an absolute rockstar. He was friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the menu. His recommendations were spot-on and made the experience even better.
We started with the bacon-wrapped scallops—perfectly seared, juicy, and the bacon added just the right smoky crunch. Unreal! For mains, we shared the Cuban shrimp sandwich (loaded with perfectly spiced shrimp, fresh toppings, and that crispy bread) and the grilled fish of the day (whatever it was, it was fresh, flaky, and seasoned beautifully). Everything was cooked to perfection—fresh, flavorful, and generous portions. Finished it off with a favorite Key lime pie.
To wash it all down, we went with margaritas—strong, refreshing, and exactly what we needed after a long day. Gerald suggested a couple of tweaks to make them even better, and they hit the spot.
The whole evening felt effortless and fun. Grills has that rare combo of great food, stunning views, and exceptional service. Gerald, if you’re reading this—thank you for making our dinner unforgettable! We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in Cape Canaveral.
Highly recommend—5 stars all the way!
The kabobs were flavorful and cooked perfectly. The beans had great flavor. Their taters had a nice light spice to them and weren’t overly seasoned. The shrimp Cuban was extremely flavorful! The birds got really close while eating outside but never tried to snatch our food from us. It was so fun watching the fishermen bring in their catches of the day. They were kind and let the kids watch them clean their fish and my kids enjoyed getting to help. The atmosphere is very family friendly and super inviting.
Now let’s talk about the food—because it deserves every bit of praise. I had what was easily the best piece of fish I’ve ever had in my life. Fresh, flaky, and cooked to absolute perfection, it was the kind of dish that stops you in your tracks after the first bite. Everything on the plate was perfectly seasoned, even the vegetables, which is something many restaurants overlook. At Grills Seafood, every detail counts, and it shows.
One standout worth mentioning is the shark kabob—a unique and flavorful option that’s definitely worth a try if you’re feeling adventurous. It was tender, lightly seasoned, and delicious in a way that surprises and delights.
My biggest recommendation for anyone visiting for the first time? Try the fish of the day. With seafood this fresh and skillfully prepared, you really can’t go wrong. Grills Seafood knows how to showcase the best of what Florida waters have to offer, making each visit memorable and satisfying. If you’re anywhere near Port Canaveral, this spot is an absolute must.
