Frommer's Review

Shrimp reigns at this casual Old Florida-style establishment, where at 4pm you'll see a line of people waiting outside for the early-bird specials served to the first 100 in the door. Shrimp here is prepared in at least a dozen ways, from steamed to fried in a coconut-and-almond batter. There is also grouper and swordfish, plus steaks and chicken for the land-minded, but I recommend sticking to the shrimp here. (The Timbers Restaurant & Fish Market, described below, does a much better job of cooking fish.) McT's Tavern has an extensive choice of appetizers and light dinners. All-you-can-eat peel-and-eat shrimp and stone crabs are available nightly, though if it's not stone-crab season (Oct-May), the crab will likely be frozen.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
