This is a good restaurant reminiscent of the old school seafood restaurants. The food is delicious and plentiful. The service is good with the amount of business they do. The ambiance is great and the art is amazing. Would definitely go back. They do have a parking lot right beside it and the beach is directly across the street.

Fried scallops

Sister's lunch while walking around the pier area. It was warm out so we were looking for inside seating and seafood. The fish taco's and tuna burger were mouth watering. The New England clam chowder was a bit thin but very tasty. The broiled haddock was not as flakey as we wished it would be and the fried scallops were too watery. I don't know if they were short handed or just run one server normally but she was overwhelmed and the service was not the greatest. We didn't receive drink refills, got charged for extra sauces we never received and was basically ignored. The hostess was a wonderful young lady, it was too bad she wasn't the server.

New England Clam Chowder

Excellent! They have a variety of martinis. Right on the beach, close to the pier. The clam chowder was so tasty! We got 1lb crab legs for $23 (Sunday special 11a-4p) and surprisingly not too packed. The wahoo was on special and probably my favorite fish of the whole trip! Highly recommend this restaurant. Limited outdoor seating though

Oysters Rockefeller

Love the seafood at the anchor!!! Two Sundays in a row - the snow crab was spot on! Add in lobster this time and I'm thinking I will be back next Sunday again!

Blackened trigger fish with fries.

This place knows how to do food!! Start with She Crab soup and Oysters Rockefeller. I love the trigger fish, although anything you order is fantastic!! Our bartender John was simply amazing, he made sure our food was prompt and our glasses were never empty, very attentive and friendly. This place is the bomb.

House margarita

Tonight we decided to tryout The Anchor. We were seated immediately and our server Brian took our drink order which was margaritas. He brought us ice waters and shortly after our margaritas. The margaritas were very good. We then placed our dinner order my husband ordered the Trigger fish blackened and fries, I ordered fried shrimp with onion rings. We also received salads with our dinners. The decorations in the restaurant are very beachy and beautiful! We were seated where we are able to look at the ocean. Service was excellent from our server to all working there. Very happy and satisfied with our dining experience!

Cheeseburger and coleslaw. Both excellent.

Been here a couple times and always enjoy it. The service was slow this visit so I took a star away. The food was surprisingly good. I ordered the shrimp Parmesan which I normally would not do in a non-Italian restaurant. But I have to say it was excellent. The sauce that came with it was very fresh and light and delicious. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and very tasty. Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised. My husband got the filet mignon and he said it was very good as well. This is slowly becoming my favorite restaurant in the area and I will be back again.

We were seated immediately and our waitress Izzy came over quickly and got us waters while we…read morelooked at the menu. I ordered a heavenly blueberry margarita and my husband got a beer. Very refreshing on a hot day. My son got a sprite. I enjoyed the crab cake sandwich, but my favorite were the sweet potato fries with this honey chipotle dipping sauce. Yummmmmmmm. I would come back for those alone! Hubs enjoyed blackened grouper sandwich with pasta salad. Son enjoyed burger but said it was overcooked. No biggie. Ask for Izzy. Get the sweet potato fries and the blueberry marg.

Looking for a fresh seafood restaurant with wild-caught shrimp and raw oysters near the beach?…read more Surprisingly, not this place. The name 'Turtle Shack' does not carry any significance. We did have clam chowder minus the clams and bits of potato normally found in most every clam chowder. It was essentially a milky broth. The fish sandwich was good. Our choice of Mahi was a nice-sized portion-control piece that had no doubt been purchased and delivered frozen, but to be fair was cooked to our liking. And it came with a large serving of crisp tasty fresh fries. The french dip sandwich was also pretty good. Plenty of shaved meat and a nice pineapple slaw side was more than enough to satisfy us. No complaints unless you thought clam chowder actually oughta have clam and potato in it, or if you were planning to enjoy fresh FL seafood at the 'Turtle Shack'. Instead, enjoy the burgers and the wings and the portion-control fish sandwich and the french dip and ignore the mis-leading name out front.
