2nd place we tried to spend some money at on this shit-hole island today.
Walked in and stood there waiting for somebody to greet or maybe seat us. After being ignored by several employee's we asked to be seated loudly. A young bimbo who was not sure where she was said we could that table and sit there pointing to a dirty 4-top. I asked if we went out on the dock if someone would wait on us? Yes sure I will be right out. After 15 minutes of sitting on the deck and no sign of a waitron we got up and left.
That was 0 for 2 on this island today.
Hope all of these so-called hospitality industry professionals are going to school, as they will never survive working for tips.
Stay away from this place.
Update: Â Please read my original review. Â In additon, we had the opportunity this winter while traveling in Florida to try other places that are similar to Olde Fish House (fresh seafood, prepared by the water, very casual). Â We knew this place was good, but after trying others, Old Fish House is the best we've ever had. Â The others were fine; but, with this place, we are always planning how many times we'll be able return that trip.
Review Source:We love this place and make it one of our first stops whenever we're in Punta Gorda. Â We stop by to buy fresh seafood (clams, grouper, shrimp, snapper, oysters, blue crab) and also get a snack of freshly fried oysters, grouper and shrimp. Â The seafood is perfectly cooked and comes with their homemade slaw. Â While the seafood market is open all day, the walk-up food counter has limited hours so call first to make sure they are serving food. Â We absolutely love this family-owned business!
