Good food, beautiful spot to eat on the water! Friendly staff!!!!! I would recommend to family and friends

Just the name made us want to try it! We sat outside on the river! It is such a relaxed atmosphere. ....SeaGulls flying around over the water....Old 50 music. So the fish was wonderful. We had a great young friendly waiter Josh -- he told us all about the power cancel location and what to do! so sweet. You can see cruise ships from out table. read more

I came here for dinner the night before a cruise, and we enjoyed it. The scenery on that back deck is outstanding. The vibe is laid back and beachy and fun. Our server was nice and attentive. We shared a ton of appetizers, and I had a margarita. I did think one thing was strange. All the food comes to you served in steamer baskets. Like I thought someone must have ordered dumplings at a nearby table, but then my chowder came in one, and all my other items. The clam chowder was really good, as well as the grouper fingers, everything else was pretty standard. I would come back if in the area again. read more

Want to watch dolphins and birds from the deck while you dine? Then check out Fishlips! Kaylee was a great menu guide and steered us in all the right directions. We had a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc and a few cocktails to start on a Thursday evening. For dinner, we had shrimp, swordfish, and I opted for the seafood diablo, which was quite tasty, if messy. When first seated on the patio, we were in the sun and Kaylee graciously offered to reseat us farther down the mostly empty deck. Later, as the sun dropped lower, we were back in the hot sun without umbrellas or an awning. The food (shrimp, swordfish, and seafood pasta, and chocolate-cake dessert) were all a hit. Definitely recommend you check it out and arrive early if you can to avoid the rush. read more

I went here twice in a week. First time was just to relax and enjoy the outdoor ambiance, over viewing the ocean water. It was quite pleasant. The 2nd time was to watch a Rocket launch and a NFL playoff game. Both visits was outstanding! I received good service and good food. The prices were decent and reasonable. To make the Long story short, the Ambiance and food is good. Waiters and waitresses were attentive and accommodating. Good place to watch sports and enjoy the surrounding tourism this place offers. Cool place, did not dissapoint. read more

It's a shame I'm leaving 2 stars because up until my entree came, I really enjoyed my meal. The appetizers were so good. I loved the calamari that we had. My entree was the shrimp tempura, subbed broccoli. The portion sizes were that of a kids meal. You got 6 decent sized pieces of shrimp, and then 5 pieces of broccoli. For the price, the portion sizes were not good. I probably would not come back. read more

Great prices and good service. Had a delicious bowl of steak pho with my friend here this weekend. bathrooms were clean and parking was decently efficient for a downtown orlando joint. read more

The server was nice but the food and drinks were on a scale of 1-10 a 3. Nice atmosphere. The fried shrimp was loaded with grease so when you bit into it, grease was all over your tongue and the roof of your mouth. The lobster was over cooked and tasted like rubber. One bite of the lobster and I put it down. We paid our bill, I voiced my concerns and left. My hands still smell of grease from one bite of shrimp. Do Better!!!! read more

Family ate here for dinner and the atmosphere was great as well as the view from our table. We had a table upstairs on the covered patio. The drinks were really good, but the food was lacking a little. The spinach dip was so-so. My husband and I had fish & chips. The coleslaw was pretty good, the fried were not that great to me and the fish was fried really hard. If I returned it would be for drinks and view only. The service was very good. read more

Decided to try this place out because of the name and the reviews. I'd say it was about average. The views were great. We sat upstairs as recommended by the downstairs host for the best views. Our server Nicky was great. My daughter especially enjoyed her. The kids fish and chips was really good. I liked the batter and my kid did too for the most part. The ice cream at the end was her favorite part. The cup of milk is a decent solo cup size. I had the snapper. It was cooked well and the hollandaise sauce was amazing! There was something in the taste fish/crab that was very mediocre. Not every bite. More sauce would have masked it. The asparagus would have been better grilled. It was maybe boiled a little too long. The ends needed to be bent/snapped off to get the touch inedible parts off. The rice was just plain, which was fine bc I didn't eat it. My husband got the mahi with a mango salsa and some kind of drizzle over it. He really enjoyed his. So not the worst, not the best. I loved that they had a lot of non fried options. Also to note: they didn't seem to have a catch of the day. The freshest fish was the snapper and grouper. Not sure how fresh it was (if it was from the closest region or sourced local). read more

Danielle was the best! We happened to arrive during happy hour and got some good priced drinks and dips. We ordered the smoked fish dip, street corn dip, ahi salmon tacos, shrimp tacos, po boy sandwich and roast beef sandwich. Everything was fresh and delicious. The atmosphere is amazing. Great view in cape Canaveral looking at the boats. The service is fast and friendly. Lots to choose from on the menu. Happy hour prices are amazing. read more

Nice place right near the ports. They have plenty of seating, indoor and outdoor. You can watch the cruise ships at the port. The service was quick and our server was really nice. The food was delicious. The Korean nachos were absolutely delicious. The meat was tender and wontons were crunchy. The egg rolls were delicious. The chicken and shrimp were delicious as well. I would definitely come back when i visit again. I love the atmosphere. read more

What a great surprise. It surpassed my expectations for a solid experience. It is more of a lunch after the beach, or drinks with friends while out for a night out type of place. The appetizers were average, mostly fried stuff, but the Tuna Poke was tasty. The mahi mahi entree with mango salsa and coconut rice is truly what stole the show. It was a delightful combination of flavors that left a lasting impression. The beer was cold and refreshing, and our server was great, making for an enjoyable afternoon out. The atmosphere and the view were great. I did not find the restaurant area too loud (at least when I was there). If you sit outside on the deck, you can even watch ships go by if you are lucky, which is a fantastic sight. read more

Bottom Line: The View They've got the view AND they've got a pretty consistently good kitchen AND the prices are in line for the area. Lobster Bisque $8.98 - Delicious! My friend had the Clam Chowder. If you weren't comparing it to the bisque - it was good, but the Lobster Bisque def wins. Calamari $12.99 - hot and fried perfect - just enough not to be soggy. I always get the Calamari. Sesame Tuna Salad $15.99 - Large and filling. Lots of Tuna that tasted fresh. The dressing on the salad was delicious. Lots of Avocado too. Magi Mahi Sandwich $13.99 - always in the rotation. Nice size piece of fish. It's always been firm and tastes fresh. Mahi Rueben $15.99 - one of my favorites. It's like a grilled cheese with fish. Mahi Mahi Tacos $13.99 - they are good I just personally find the other Mahi options I mentioned more filling. If you want a Mahi option that is slightly lighter then go for the tacos. I usually have beer when I'm here. There's a standard tap menu - nothing special in the Craft category but if you drink beer there's one there for you. Service is usually normal bar/restaurant service. They work hard in the crazy heat and they are often busy. They serve most dishes in a kind of Asian Bamboo steamer type thing. Being on the canal it's cool to see the cruise ships and there is usually some dolphins swimming by too. Bottom Line: as a local it is one of my favorite local seafood/bar places AND always a fun spot to take visitors. read more

Our group of 20 were seated on the upper terrace where we saw the cruise ships docked. We saw some dolphins swimming close to shore and that was entertaining. Our servers were efficient and kept us updated on when our food would be ready. The Brunch had a variety of options and the food was tasty. read more

My wife and I flew in to head out on a cruise and had to come to Fishlips based on multiple reviews and recommendations. Fishlips did not disappoint. We enjoyed a Brie appetizer, and then I dove into the Snapper Oscar. It was incredible. Our server, Kyle, was very attentive and even took our picture when the SpaceX booster was brought back to port from its latest launch. Sit on the upper deck at one of the high top tables and watch the ships come in and go out. read more

I really enjoyed the meal and ambiance of this restaurant!! We got here just in time for happy hour and I ordered my mussels off from the HH menu. Selected beers were $2 for a pint!! The kids ordered their meals from the kids menu... They really like the fried shrimps with fries. The kids meal includes a cup of ice cream (vanilla or chocolate)! Mussels were great and fresh! The white wine broth was light and full of flavor. The coconut shrimps were also good, they were a decent size and the coconut rice was yummy! We wanted to try their clam chowder but we were surprised at the size of a "cup". Though the bowl was shallow, I find that the cup was more than a typical cup from other restaurants. We sat outside the second floor patio and caught the Disney Wish cruise sailing away! What a fun and fantastic experience to be able to wave bon voyage to the passengers on that ship!! Server was great! And friendly! I recommend this restaurant! read more

This place was packed and it wasn't even 5 yet but it turns out that there's some fishing tournament and everyone hangs out there. The hosts were nice but I sense the waitress wasn't loving her job or day. For the amount of people, the food came out pretty quickly. The food came out in Dim Sum bamboo steamers and no dim sum inside (WTH)! Weird but I suspect most people there doesn't even know about anything dim sum. I got baked cod with baked potatoes and veggies (sides were already chosen for this order in the menu). The cod was great, veggies were good, but the potatoes may have been baking for over 5 hours. No amount of butter nor sour cream was going to help. Overall, everything was good and I would go back but avoid that dirt dry potato! read more

What was good. The location was good. Parking was easy and available. The level of service was good. There were no issues with the staff or service . I was very disappointed with the "fresh" peal and eat shrimp. The tails were black they were not fresh or edible. I did not say anything as I was with a group of friends. It's not the servers fault the product was inferior so I tipped at 15% which is my minimum tip level. read more

Had lunch here over the weekend, and everything was delicious! My favorite? The salad--fresh, and flavorful. The fish was tasty too, but let's just say it had a minimalist aesthetic (aka, a little too small for my appetite ). On the bright side, our server was incredibly kind, which made the experience even better. read more

To start, the table that got sat behind us got waited on, got their drinks, and an appetizer before we even got waited on. I politely went and spoke to the hostess and explained to her that it had been almost 25 minutes. The manager came and apologized - comped our drinks, which was nice. I ordered the shrimp tacos and fries... the tacos were cold. Our waiter never came back and asked us if we wanted another drink/anything. Tourist trap... Do not recommend. read more

What to do what to do if you're eagerly anticipating departing for a cruise but it's tomorrow? Go to Fish Lips!!!! The family came here the day before we boarded a cruise as we flew in and were staying in the area. We came on a weekday which was GREAT because of the happy our specials. Food: We got the coconut shrimp, alfredo for kids (not on the menu but they hooked it up for us), popcorn shrimp for kids, steamed clams, and a couple of beers. All the food was excellent and really well priced. The best part of it for me was that the beer that was a few dollars for a pint. Good selection and for this west coast fool, getting Yeungling for cheap was a treat. I also ordered a "cup" of clam chowder that was bigger than my face. WTF... so much chowder so good. Service: As mentioned above, they hooked it up for the kid's alfredo. It wasn't on the menu but the server asked if we could get one to the chef/manager and they said yes! Perfect for a kid who doesn't want to eat mac/cheese or fried seafood. The server was super helpful and attentive. The vibe: The ambiance of this place was GREAT. good energy with all the people chilling on the tiki deck and if you go late afternoon, you get to see the cruise ships go by and wave bye to everyone who's starting their vacations. Overall, this place is a must for us next time we head out there. Loved everything about it. read more

We made a trip to watch our daughter play tennis in Cocoa Beach and found ourselves starving after the match. We got word of Fishlips. It was awesome. We walked right in with no wait to a waterside seat, perfect ambiance in the shade. Our waiter immediately greeted us and took our order. From the smoked fish dip, to the bang bang shrimp, to the ahi tuna bowl to the main course of fried grouper, every bite was delicious. It was a restaurant I would recommend for everyone. The entry had an awesome place to take pictures, swag for sale and a hostess that was super nice. Go here!! It's good! read more

Popular with the locals, and for good reason. Also highly recommend for those staying in the area prior to their cruse out of Port Canaveral. Not a fancy dining experience, but it doesn't need to be. Really good food options and good service to make you feel welcome and comfortable. Parking is pretty easy but you have to pay close attention to getting there from the main road. Great place to watch the ships depart if dining in the late afternoon. read more
