We are from Chicago. Food was great! Wish the outdoor ambiance was a little nicer.. adding music, soothing sounds like a waterfall… just a lot of road noise and I think when visiting FL you want to be outside! Inside looked nice - but wanted to dine outside!

Locally owned and managed. The staff all know the menu and the wines. They are super attentive. Not a fancy place, but nice enough. Homey feel. This is the best restaurant in cocoa beach. No question. Had the red grouper, blue crab salad, deviled eggs.

Food was well prepared and creative. But the market special 1 was a grilled halibut. The halibut was cooked nicely although it had a bit too much char. It feels like halibut is a tough fish to grill. But worse was that the prep otherwise was bad. A spinach cream sauce lacked flavor and didn’t add anything to the plate. The falafel was awful so there was edible starch. And the asparagus with mushrooms was essentially just mushrooms. As the most expensive dish on the menu I had hoped for more. At the same time, the shrimp and pumpkin grits were delicious. Just be careful what you order.

W made reservations for Fat Snook based on information provided and glad we did. The restaurant's sitting area is not very big and filled up very quickly. We ordered the She Crab soup and the Baked Oysters as starters, for our main entre we ordered the special Corvina dish and the Creole Shrimp & Scallops. Every dish was fantastic!
