I had a snapper basket. The filet was larger than the norm, fries a bit older, as I think my order may have sat a while before coming out. Service was a cluster….I will say, we came with a large group (40+/-) and Dee did her very best to be accommodating. She’s worth her wait in gold. This was our second time coming. The first, there were only 6 of us, not a hitch. Everglades city is a nice little town, seems quiet, and there are some great views. Notwithstanding the service yesterday, we’ll go back to the diving pelican…it’s worth it.

This was my first visit to the Diving Pelican. In fact, it was the first time I have ever been to Everglades City. Reading reviews on the internet, I selected to have a late lunch at the Pelican.
It was not a bad decision. The building is a joint effort between a bar and a restaurant. We entered the restaurant and were the only diners there. We were seated in the bar which was fine. It was quiet and the booths were comfortable.
I selected the Grouper Francaise. It was described as pan-seared grouper in egg, lemon, and butter. It had a very good flavor but was closer to pan-fried than pan-seared. It was served on rice. It was a large dish but tasted so good I ate it all.
One of my dining companions had a fried grouper dish with rice and beans. It was also filled with good flavor. It was slightly overcooked and a little dry but still tasted great.
The other diner had mango salmon. It came with a mango salsa sauce and served over rice with fried plantains. Again, a very good dish.
The server (Amber) was very knowledgeable about all dishes on the menu and made sure we had plenty of iced tea and water during the meal.
The ambiance is informal with country music playing in the bar and an attractive decor.
When in Everglades City, this restaurant is a good choice.

It is a fun, clean place, with a very nice staff!
I had the frog legs, which were amazing. Tender, moist, lightly fried, no swamp flavor…just the flavor of the frog!
I also had the gator. Same as the frog legs…perfect! I was very disappointed by the wings, got the dry rubbed wing, heavily fried and way over cook.
Now, their specialty drinks are genius and their home brewed Diving Pelican beer was great. Same taste as ShockTop, but a little lighter on the orange and 100 times more refreshing!

Amber was very friendly and funny. The food was delicious. We also enjoyed playing corn hole while waiting for our food to be served.

We stopped for lunch and it wasn’t busy at all. It’s a very large, clean space with some interesting decor. We had frog legs basket. Which included a generous portion of deep fried frog legs, fries and cole slaw. The legs were tasty and tender. We also had a blackened grouper sandwich, which was good with a kick. The specialty drinks looked refreshing, but we stuck with beer and a margarita, which was very good, not too tart or sour. We finished with the key lime pie and it was more than enough for 2. They make it on-site and it was tart and creamy as it should be. Prices are comparable to beach prices and the service was excellent. There is outdoor seating too, but we didn’t see it when we arrived as it’s in the back.

The staff were incredibly friendly and gave a warm welcome. Everyone was supportive and worked well together. The food was fresh and served quickly. It’s a great restaurant definitely worth visiting if you’re in the area.

It was one of the few places still open after an impromptu trip to Fl City. Kitchen closes at 8pm and we arrived at 7:20pm. Our server, Kim, was friendly & attentive from the moment we walked in the door. The menu is pricey but well worth it. The seafood is fresh and the plates are prepared well. We had the shrimp scampi and fried shrimp dinner (basket). Both dishes were amazing but the fried shrimp was in the most delicious buttery breading – so light, airy, and perfect for the shrimp (crisp at 1st bite and tender on the inside). The fries were fat and had good texture. And the angel hair for the Scampi was tender, not tough, and accented with the best sauce.

Very clean place. Friendly staff. Aquatic decor. These folks just recovered from hurricane Ian. Next time I’m in the area, I will eat there again. Yes, they have stone crabs and they are delicious! They have a full-bar connected to the main restaurant.
