Loved loved the service from Chris. He is sweet, courteous and honest. All the suggestions he provided were spot on! We went due to one of the employees bumping into us at the hotel we were staying at and told us about this location, THANK You, sorry we didn't get your name! We ordered the snook in platter, it was not massively large, and my favorite was the crab cake, but I felt the price was quite hefty for what it was :/ They have a small salad bar, which reminded me ALOT of the one Pizza Hut used to offer, so yummy! They offer indoor seating and outdoor. Have a band playing outside. An outside dock for those that come after fishing or hanging out at the beach. read more

The best vibes here!! Right on the marina with live music. No reservations/call ahead but the wait was not long at all and enjoyed the music during the short wait! Food was delicious - good mix of options and the seafood was so fresh. read more

One of Marcos well know spots, Great place to go and get a bite on the water. Food is always good and the salad bar is the best on the island. With its grand outdoor tiki hut and waterside views with ocean breeze truly feels like paradise. I've been going here since 2009 and have seen a lot of changes over the years but the food has stayed the same. My go to is the blackened grouper sandwich with rice and beans and go to the salad bar and load up. Their pasta salad at the salad bar is spectacular. The only thing I would say is there always a wait and the prices have gone up significantly but that's fair and expected over time. No matter what I get gotta have a pickle from the salad bar pickle barrel! Highly recommend checking out the gem read more

Bartenders at Snook Inn are rude! Not friendly at all!!! When asked to change the TV channel of one of the TV's to watch another game they got upset. They were NOT happy at all. Neither was I so I left to Joey's where they gladly accommodate. BTW, this was the second time the same situation happened to me. read more

I'd give food 4.5/5. Service was great. Drinks really good. Atmosphere was great with the live music. read more

Came here for dinner with my family and had a great experience. This was one of our favorite restaurants we ate at on our 2 week long trip through Florida. Nice dining out on the water and this is one of the places you can pull your boat right up to. We were seated out by the water. I ordered the tropical lemonade which tasted great. There so many things I wanted to try off their menu that it was hard to decide. My husband ordered the mahi mahi tacos and I ordered the lobster roll. All of their entrees include this salad bar which is really nice. The salad bar is large and has lots of different options. My lobster roll tasted delicious. My husband enjoyed his tacos as well. He ordered a side of onion rings because he heard how good they are from here and they did not disappoint. Probably the best onion rings I've ever had. Overall, all of the food we tried here was 5/5. We ordered my kids a kids pizza to share and they enjoyed it and it was a large portion for a kids meal. I wish I wrote my review sooner so I could remember our waitress name because she was amazing. If we go to Marco Island again, this will be a must stop at for me. read more

Snook Inn was on our short list while visiting Marco Island, so we finally made it over there. We tried to go on Sunday, but the parking lot was packed and there was already a wait. We came back midweek before the dinner rush, and that worked out way better. The first thing I noticed was the vibe. They had live music going, which seemed great for anyone sitting outside. Inside was quieter and felt a little more like a traditional dining room. Most entrées come with the salad bar, and honestly the homemade pickles and the bread were my favorite part. Our food came out fast and hot, which I always appreciate. Marco Island in general leans pricey, and Snooks fits right in with that. Kids meals were $14.99, which felt high, and the gift shop had some surprisingly expensive name‑brand stuff. Service was fine...not bad, not amazing, just kind of there. Overall, though, Snooks is a fun stop if you're in the area. I'd still recommend giving it a try. read more

A classic Marco Island restaurant! One of their deals was kids eat free on Thursday so my 2 children's meals were free which was a pleasant surprise. The food all came out extremely hot which was great and the portions were extremely generous. Shoutout to Juan, our server he was so unbelievably kind to my kids and served us well! read more

Snook Inn - Inside - Seafood Near Me - Marco Island, Florida

We went here for an early dinner on a Sunday afternoon after we had to pivot from our number 1 choice because it was cash only. Who even uses cash anymore for anything? Snook Inn was just minutes away so it was convenient. It accepts credit cards. The place was packed so we had to wait a bit, but ultimately the wait was worth it as we were seated waterfront. We were able to watch the boats up and down the body of water (a channel? not sure). The ambiance is exactly what you would expect of a casual seafood restaurant. Parking is tight. We arrived early so we found a spot but by the time we left cars were circulating and searching. We started with grouper bites (as they are called) for an appetizer and they were excellent. LIghtly battered, fried to perfection, and very tasty. I did not even want or use the accompanying sauce. $20 for a healthy portion. I ordered the white shrimp blackened, which came 8 to an order ($28). They were cooked perfectly and very fresh. Very good shrimp. The meal came with a trip to the salad bar and a side, and I ordered fries. The fries were crispy and very good. That is the third time I had fries with a seafood entree while in FL and each time the fries were excellent. They know how to do fries in FL. The wife got the Tropical salad and liked it ($16). it was a huge bowl of greens, too much for one person. So she ate the good stuff and left a lot of the arugula and other greens. The kid had fish and chips and liked the fish, which was fresh and fried perfectly ($15). Our server, Ana, was professional, helpful, and efficient. Very good service. Overall, we had an excellent experience and we were happy to have found this place. read more

We've been to the Snook Inn a few times now since it has reopened and overall have enjoyed our lunches here. As others have mentioned this is a hopping and crowded spot. Parking can be tricky. They have a nice outdoor tiki bar/hut area with dining, but it was cold and windy today and opted to eat inside. It was crowded and perhaps they moved some tables inside as nobody really wanted to dine outside today. It took a good 10 minutes or so for our server to greet us, but after that everything moved along at a good pace. People mention that the prices here are a little higher than comparable places, but they do include one visit to the salad bar. It is a basic salad bar, but enjoyable with lettuce and a variety of toppings as well as potato, pasta salads and cole slaw. We tried a burger today and I would say it was just OK, a smashburger, and nothing exceptional. On the other hand, the grouper reuben sandwich was delicious with a nice thick piece of fish. Cocktails were tasty and potent. If you are looking for a fun spot with good food, I would recommend giving this place a try. read more

We had two different platters of fish fingers, one grouper with onion rings and the other standard fish finger with seasoned fries. Mom had the scallops, & shrimp over a spinach bed which was great but we love adding more lemon juice to the seafood. Daughter had the lobster roll with chips which could have used a little more sauce. Overall service was excellent, atmosphere was perfect on the water, outside with a breeze in the air. Each meal came with the inside salad bar lots of food and hubby had a great time making friends with other diners. read more

Me and my friend will never turn down a seafood spot, especially if they have lobster rolls, so we came across Snook Inn, and knew we had to come. I ordered the lobster roll which came with a side of chips. First off, the ambiance of this spot is great, and it was right by the water, so it was so pretty! My food was great. SO much lobster, which I always love. The chips were also very tasty, and there were so many. Snook Inn also had a little gift shop next to it, which I thought was cool, and I did pick up some items. read more

You wouldn't think of Snook Inn as having more than mere bar food, but you'd be wrong. I ordered the Shrimp & Scallop Scampi and got plate of extra large seared scallops and braised shrimp on a bed of spinach with one of the best tasting seafood sauces I've ever had. My partner had a ceviche with plantain chips he found to be supper wonderful. Located on the shore of a bay, the view and general ambience are great. My service was knowledgeable, friendly and top notch for local advice. With such delicious food, great service and such a wonderful shoreside location it's a Yelp 5 stars for me. read more

Into this place three times and the food has always been good. The first two times the service was OK but this last time it was awful. Couldn't get water for 10 minutes, and then it took another 10 minutes to place my order and another five to get my first drink. For my second drink, I had to go to the bar myself. Disaster. But the server was all smiles and attentive when it was time for a tip. The worst part was the restaurant was very slow last night. read more

Not as good as expected. Mai Tai was wonderful. Lobster roll was unlike I had ever had and not in a good way. Very disappointing dinner.

Fun place. It was about an hour wait. We had some fun cocktails as we waited. They have a cute shop to look at also if you need some things. The dinner service was great our lady was so nice. We all ordered different things. If you order a meal you get a salad bar with it. It was a tasty treat and the pickles are so fun and yummy. This was a nice spot and the wait didn't seem long at all. My grouper was so good. And there was enough leftover I had it the next day. Worth the trip if you're in the area. Also parking can be hard read more

Neat little place, pretty busy for a Monday. Atmosphere is very lively. We were told 35 minute wait and they were pretty spot on. Unfortunately, after being seated, nobody came to our table for 15 minutes until, Chris arrived. I think he knew that we had been waiting because he took our drink order and food order right away and was pretty prompt after that. I had the Blackened Mahi Mahi Tacos ($23): served with pico de gallo, shredded lettuce, shredded cheddar Cheese, avocado crema, black beans, and rice. The meal came with one trip to the "Famous" salad bar. I'm not sure what makes it famous, looked pretty average, but it was still a good starter. The tacos were a big hit. There were HUGE chunks of blackened mahi-mahi, it was seasoned excellently, and so dang good! The evening was a little bit of a bumpy start, but was positively turned around and ended up being an excellent meal. I would recommend Snook Inn. My only word of caution is they have many tables in the bar area, some are about 10 feet away from where the band plays so when they have live music, it gets super loud in there. read more

It's just ok. Sometimes it's too busy. Sometimes the service is good. Sometimes it's slow.

Are dinner here. Great location on the water- very crowded and more like a cafeteria but the food was relatively good. Had the blacken grouper with side of string beans. Against my better judgement also had a pina colada. The best thing about the dinner was the hot sauce - very tasty.

Also had a bit of the fish and chips and it was superior to other F&C I had. read more

Really busy, hopping restaurant. Food was pretty good. Grouper sandwich had a thin piece of grouper. Mahi tacos pretty good. Craft beer selection ok. Metal picnic tables in most of the place. Live music playing. Parking a bit tough. We made ourselves a spot. Sake bar came with the food and that got us pretty filled up before our food. I did like it, but it was standard salad bar. Had some good potato salad on it and fresh bread. Not sure what all the hype about this place was for. read more

Our second time here, confirms a five star assessment. Parking is a little difficult, just circle slowly and you will find a spot. Got some excellent drinks at the bar while patiently waiting for a table. Our party of six was seated dockside so great atmosphere and able to talk easily. Weather was agreeable and we ordered. Kids had the salmon, I ordered the platter. Good size portions, all tasty, and everyone had a trip to the salad bar. We could hear the live music and still talk, that was nice. See you later! read more

Love this place! What a great local spot. The service was a bit slow but it was a busy night. We got seated quickly. They drinks were good and the food was awesome! We were seeing all the items come from the kitchen and were wowed! The oysters were good. It's been a couple months since our visit, so I don't remember everything we got, but I know we were all really impressed at how tasty everything was. This place is a little dicey, and it's awesome, but definitely worth every penny! read more

A great place to grab a cocktail or a bite to eat. Set on the water, you get a nice cool breeze (most of the time) and a great view. Some live entertainment at times will keep you entertained. Pick the right time so it's not too packed (and you can get a table). Come during off hours for a more relaxed atmostphere. The signature cocktails, while pricey, are very good. I enjoyed several different tap beers for a more reasonable price. read more

We went 2 nights in a row on the weekend, since we were staying just a short walk away. The food was just fantastic, watching the boats go by from the back deck was really special. Friday night the place was absolute packed inside and out, great band playing outside. Less than 45 minute wait browsing the little shops. Even that busy, service was excellent and food was even better! So good we came back saturday night....totally different vibe. no lines, walked right up and got seated immediately, there was one guy playing guitar and singing (I thought he was really good). Anyway, 3 of us, all with different entrees both nights and everyone totally loved it. No complaints at all with this place, although I heard one lady next to us complaining the bugs were biting (we were outside at sundown so that made sense although none of us were bit, just a note if bugs like you, might want to use some spray. ) If you are in Marco, do yourself a favor and go enjoy this place! I think I have some pictures, sure my wife does, I will see i can update this with photos. read more

I like the music, vibes, tiki hut and view. I went to Snook Inn recently and enjoyed what a true to FL experience it is and have been going to this restaurant for many years.

Loved it so much we went twice! The first time, I got the Lobster Roll and it was delish! My husband got the Seared Snapper and loved it, too. I tried a bite and it was so good. The weird best part...the salad bar! Potato salad is my favorite food and I rarely find potato salad that I love that's not my own homemade but the Snook Inn's is SO good! So good we went back just so I could get the salad bar and have endless salad/potato salad. And the homemade bread...I want more right now! Friendly servers. Don't listen to the bad reviews on here! read more

Mostly good: My grouper sandwich was one of the best I've had on the island. It was moist and flavorful and the portion was generous. The salad bar is a nice touch, it's not huge, but it's enough and it's something that we loved and you just don't see anymore. Our table was right on the water, great view and you really can't beat the outdoor dining experience. Band was really good and we enjoyed the live music! Our service was great our waiter was friendly and attentive. Seating options are varied, something for everyone. You can sit under the tiki roof, you will find the bar and band in there. It's dark, but open air and if you like a lively loud environment when you eat, this is the place to be. There is indoor seating near the salad bar, if you want a more calmer, quiet setting, this is where you want to be. There is an outdoor setting at picnic tables, if you want an outdoor setting with water views and live music, this is where you want to be, but you will need to wait to be seated. This is an extremely casual place, no need to dress up. Some not so good: Parking here is a disaster! Uber here if you can, as the parking situation is limited and tight and you find yourself circling the lot waiting for people to leave. This place doesn't take reservations, wait times can be significantly high, which doesn't help the parking situation. If you want to eat outside, be prepared to wait. We came on a Wednesday night, 5:30 (early) in April (not the busiest time of year) and we waited 45 minutes for an outdoor table. We didn't really care as we had a drink and talked, but you might. read more

Live music fantastic service- from Rho! He had great suggestions, not only for this visit but for our future as well! Drinks were good, nothing exceptional, but good enough to have a couple.

What a fun place! We love to come to the Snook Inn because it gives us the waterfront vibes we are looking for. The drink options are great and we didn't even realize we were there on a 1/2 off drink night! What a nice surprise. The salad bar is always a nice touch because it has more than just lettuce salads. My husband had the peel and eat shrimp as an appetizer and thought they were great--also easy to peel! He had the grouper for dinner which was just a tad overcooked this night. It was very dry. I had the ribs and thought they were great. read more
