Best WLM Reviews
What a hidden gem!!! This place was amazing from the minute we walked in, to the service, the food, our waitress and the environment. It's It's casual sports bar type feel, nothing fancy but don't let it fool you. Food is delicious. Some unique items on the menu as well such as fried frog legs and gator bites (cooked fried or blackened). The loaded crab fries are delicious! The value for all this food is just outstanding. Definitely will go back. Worth the stop.
My husband and I have been coming here for yrs. It's our sunday for lunch spot. The kitchen staff are very accommodating about my seasoning request, Barbara is always our server. She's very attentive, and it always makes us feel so welcomed. Love this place! A hidden gem.
Alex's Seafood Restaurant is located inside the market, and the seafood is to die for! Our waitress was very nice and recommended the Fried Seafood Platter. Not only did the food taste excellent, there was plenty of it for leftovers.
I am addicted to the fried shrimp or maybe it's that cocktail sauce. Point is I make it a personal mission to visit this location each and every time I am in town. This is located in a farmers market so the atmosphere is subjective. There is two Alex's in the farmers market. One is next to the produce store ..the other which is the one I love is next to the smoothie and movie store kinda on an end corner (it's the Alex's restaurant with the dining room connected)..besides the shrimp we can also vouch for the crabcakes which are delicious as well.
I did not get the crabs I ordered which were large males. Didn't check until I got home. There were extra crabs in the bag ,but not what I ordered
Arrived at 1 to be told they are just now cooking them. Lady said I told you . I said no you did not. Well that is a part of my smill or something she said
Well not to me.
The seafood is so fresh and cooked to perfection. Awesome variety and the customer service was impeccable. A must stop if you love seafood!
This is a perfect place for many of my favorite seafood. I'm happy I spent my time there. Quality food, lovely service. Was there for a couple of times and will be there again for sure.
This was a very disappointing experience. The food was unremarkable. The problem was the time we spent there. The dining area was maybe 75% full when the two of us arrived. It was our first time visiting, so we stood at the counter by the menus not knowing what to do. After a few minutes, we were told to sit anywhere but were not given menus. Apparently we were supposed to get them ourselves, but we didn't know that. After 5 minutes or more, we were given menus and our drink order was taken. It took a little while to get the drinks and have our order taken. Then we waited and waited. We waited for our fish sandwich and shrimp meals for approximately 50 minutes!! Other people appeared to be waiting a similar amount of time because nobody came in after us and got their food before us. The place was just incredibly slow and nobody ever apologized for the wait. All this time, we were not even addressed until about the 45-minute mark at which point we were told the food would arrive soon. We ate and then had to wait another 10-12 minutes to get our check and pay. All told we were there for about 1.5 hrs. We just had some fried fish, shrimp and fries. It should not have taken 50 minutes for that to arrive at our table and the other 40 minutes would've been cut down to about 15 in any restaurant with good service. This could have been a 30-40 minute experience at a well-functioning restaurant. At the time of my review, the score is 4.3 stars with 603 reviews. I've never had such a bad experience at a 4+ star place. Needless to say, we won't be back. There are plenty of other seafood places nearby.
