In Short – Scotty's is hard to find for the uninitiated and that's exactly how locals like it. When you do find it grab a table as close to the water as you can, sit back, and relax. You'll need to because service is notoriously slow, although usually well-meaning. A simple menu emphasizes fresh fish and other seafood specialities, with a few items such as baby-back ribs and burgers thrown in for landlubbers.

Editor's Tips

Where to Sit:
Ask for one of the tables along the water, or the picnic tables on the grass.

entertainment > food

by alsOD at Citysearch

For a Friday night, we were still able to snag a table near the water and get reasonable service. Our first dinner there, so maybe we didn't order the right thing . . . our food was just okay. But then again, you're not going for the food.

Good atmosphere, live music, water views, relaxed, local . . . give it a try.

great view, food good, service not to good

by Cookie33 at Citysearch

What I love about this place is the view. It's a great place to sit outside in the summer and drink. The prices on the menu were reasonable. I ordered a dolphin caesar salad. Mind you it was my first time ever trying dolphin and since this was not a five start restaurant I was skeptical at first. Let me tell you it was really good! Highly recommend at this place. The worst part was the service. The waitress sucked. Never came by for refills and even waving her down she would still walk by.

great brezzy view horrible prepared food

by elgilberto at Citysearch

I have been to Scottys 10 times.. I havent been there in 3 years and I invited a friend.. what a wonderful breezy view on a hot day.. you can sit there all day and drink if you wish..

The food and service was a disaster.. the shrimp appetizer was forgotten when ordered.. and then we it arrived it looked like two week old bait.. and the cocktail sauce literally had sat out for two weeks too.. horrid.. never seen anything so pathetic.. my guest threw up in his car afterward (no joke). The fish sandwich was undercooked.. the salad was OK.. The waitress even admitted that she has seen this poor performance before which was scary.

Don't go here unless you are interested in getting sick in your car afterward. :)

And if you do go.. just find the chart house and drive back to what looks and taste like the bait shop.

  • Pros: view
  • Cons: food, getting there

stone crab tutorial

by mabitz77 at Citysearch

For starters, "stone crabs" are ONLY the claws of the crab. It is illegal to catch a whole stone crab let alone serve it. Only the claws are harvested. Secondly, stone crabs are ALWAYS served cold. They are steamed immediately after being harvested and then chilled. I LOVE Scotty's but to each his own. Maybe if you knew what you were ordering you'd have been less disappointed.

Horrible Experience

by nikrock at Citysearch

First of all, it took us almost an hour to find because of where it is; I went to this place with a friend who wanted to take me out for my birthday... to go to this place was the worst idea ever. It took 10 minutes for anyone to come to our table and once they came back with our drinks, they tasted like sea water. Once our meals came out my so called ?stone crabs? (stone claws) were very cold; almost like they were in the freezer and my Caesar salad had no salad dressing (why call it a caesar salad without the caesar). My friend?s Philly cheese steak (more like Miami cheese steak) was horrible and he didn?t even eat it; he took one bite and was completely turned off by it. Basically; do not go to this restaurant. Bad service, bad lighting, no live performance, etc, etc. Save yourself the time, the energy, and the money.

  • Pros: You could seat yourself
  • Cons: Everything about this place was bad except the seat yourself
