    Bourbon burger
    Ralph E.

    I ordered the bourbon burger-medium, but it came out well done. Btw, that's typical for most places around here. That said, it was still well seasoned and the portion size was decent, so it wasn't a total miss--just not what I was expecting. Flavor profile was sweet, fresh veggies, soft bun, bacon wasn't crispy, and over cooked beef. My buddy ordered the chicken fettuccine and thought it was amazing. Personally, I'd take that with a grain of salt--his palate isn't quite as refined as mine--but it's worth mentioning. I looked at it and it looked like over cooked chicken, pasta, and fettuccine sauce. He's a meat and potatoes guy and basic cooking. Service was the highlight. Friendly, attentive, and on point the whole time. The view was amazing and plenty of seating for lunch. This used to be my go to spot when I was a local. I haven't been here in a while, and unfortunately, the burgers used to be amazing. Currently, not bad, but not somewhere I'd go out of my way for either. I did this time because it's a nice ride from my house on my motorcycle. I would definitely give this place a shot!

    Lobster bisque
    Brian S.

    Love this place on the water to ear, drink, and be possy watching cruise ships leave and wondering why I'm not on one! The atmosphere is very fun like an elevated sports bar with really amazing food. We had scallops risotto, lobster bisque soup, the clam chowder, all of which were fantastic. The service staff is always very friendly and Bree accommodating in the bar is exceptional, and the bartenders are always very attentive. One of our favorite places to go when we're in this area

    Fish sandwich
    Kathy L.

    Food was good but not great. The conch fritters & fritters & gumbo were awesome. Shrimp was disappointing as the breading was extremely thick. Weird that when you order a sandwich no fries or chips come with it. Service was spot on however, which is great for a tourist spot. And it was nice seeing the cruise ships go out of port/.

    Seafood gumbo
    Darren M.

    Good seafood in a casual atmosphere right on the water. Large outdoor upper patio to see the water, good fish tacos and seafood gumbo. Service seemed friendly.

    Grilled Chicken Sandwich
    Connie H.

    Loved the ambience of this restaurant. We stopped here as we were staying the night before our cruise down the street. We loved watching all of the cruise ships go by. So fun! The sandwich was huge. Probably the biggest piece of grilled chicken I have ever had on a sandwich. Was very juicy and delicious. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely be back.

    LOVED the outdoor seating ambiance of this restaurant!!! If you can time your seating to about 30-45 minutes before sunset, it makes for a very stunning dining experience!! The servers were attentive here. We saw close to the door leading to indoor seating, so I think the servers had no other choice but to notice us whenever they walked past. The food was really tasty here. Great sized portions, and very flavorful!

    Fishlips is the ideal place to enjoy a meal in Cape Canaveral. Located right on the water, you're able to enjoy views of cruise and cargo ships, as well as other boats. Everything on the menu has been tasty to our family, but we recommend the spinach dip and peel and eat shrimp for appetizers. For entrees, try the mahi or seafood pasta. The service here is great. Most recently, the waitress was very kind with a baby in our family. The food came out fast. We will return!

    Another wonderful experience at Fishlips! Due to the weather we did not sit outside but thats okay. We still had a view. The food and service was still amazing. Fishlips is always a must when I am in the area!

    Grilled Seafood Combo
    Michelle F.

    Visited Fishlips with a large group of over 15 people. We called ahead to make sure they could accommodate. They accommodated our large group upstairs and outside. Unfortunately it was pretty hot out and their AC units weren't helping much other than blowing hot air at us. The sun eventually went down and it was all good. The menu is large with various options. I had their scallop risotto - it was yummy. Also tried the seafood combo with shrimp and scallops and their mash potatoes. The food was great. Lots of cocktail offerings. The views are fun , we saw some heat lighting. The service was good!

    Beautiful restaurant on the water. We were in Cape Canaveral for my family's annual Christmas cruise and decided to stop here for lunch once we arrived to town. Great service with good food and drinks!

    Great spot for casual dining. Right on the water at the Port of Canaveral. Our server was awesome. Drinks were great. Lunch portion of Fish of the Day was fresh and yummy. Great spot for sitting outside if weather permits.

    We had a party of 8 and we were seated quickly. We sat on the outside of the upper deck to take in the sunset! Everyone had something different but truly enjoyed their meals! Our waitress was over the top accommodating and we can't say enough good things about this restaurant! We were recommended by a couple we met while watching a rocket launch, so thank you to them and I hope this review encourages someone else to go because it's worth it! The food is fresh and came out exactly how everyone expected!!

    Location, location, location ... the food is good, the views make it better. First time ever my husband and I ordered the same thing, Snapper Oscar. It was tasty and fresh. Love that they have both a Vegetarian and a Gluten Free menu. Watching the tugs at work was a bonus

    J. Bird's Island Eatery - grouper sandwich and waffle fries

    The night before our cruise, we decided to J Birds Island Eatery in Cape Canaveral FL, which was…read morenear our hotel. For my meal, I ordered Spicy Shrimp Tacos with no tortilla, and a side of fries. The tacos have Honey-chipotle grilled shrimp, pineapple salsa, siracha lime dressing slaw in it. All of the tacos/sandwiches are served with fries, sweet potato fries, or macaroni salad. The tacos weren't spicy at all but it was packed with flavor. The fresh slaw and pico complimented the shrimp. The fries were piping hot and they didn't need any ketchup. My mom ordered the Blackened Grouper Sandwich with sweet potato fries. The sandwich has remoulade sauce, Bibb lettuce, and sliced tomato. The sweet potato fries were cold, but they quickly brought fresher hot ones to the table. She loved it. Mike got the Chicken Sandwich with fries. The chicken is topped with chipotle mayo, cheddar, bacon, romaine, and dill pickles. Mike enjoyed his meal. My dad got the Samoan Burger which has two 4 oz. smash patties, pineapple-bacon jam, cheddar cheese, fried egg, dill pickles, romaine lettuce, and J. Bird sauce on a toasted bun and sweet potato fries. He enjoyed it. Lastly, my sister ordered the Crispy Chicken Tacos with macaroni salad. The tacos are panko-crusted chicken tenders, topped with pico de gallo, shredded romaine, and chipotle ranch dressing. She enjoyed both the tacos and macaroni salad. Since the sweet potato fries were cold they brought us 2 free desserts. We got the Dubai Chocolate Cheesecake & Pineapple Upside Down Cake. The Dubai Chocolate was delicious and had a delightful crunch from the pistachios. The upside down cake was warm and paired excellently with the vanilla ice cream. Overall, I would highly recommend checking out J Birds Island Eatery. Huge shout out to both Delaney, the hostess and Charlie, our waitress, for making our visit amazing. We weren't having a good day, but they made it way better.
