I recently visited Happy Snapper Seafood Restaurant with my kids after being enticed by the positive Google reviews and appealing photos. However, my overall experience fell short of expectations. I had high hopes for a fresh and enjoyable seafood meal, but unfortunately, there were a significant drawbacks.

Worth the 45 min drive, yup we drove 45 mins for the fried snapper. We recently visited Mexico and had fried whole snapper and anytime we get this dish outside of the states it always hits, but back home it’s never the same. FINALLY we found a spot! Happy Snapper Seafood HITS, from the small family owned feel to the fresh seafood to the service. Definitely find the time and GET THE SNAPPER!

I don’t know if they lost some cooks due to better opportunities but many this place is awful. Firstly, it took more than 40 minutes to get my appetizers and another 20 for food. The food it self was not great at all, it was so bad I just asked for to go box five minutes into eating it. I paid full price + tip($125) because I don’t believe in handouts and I post only genuine content. I literally left the place hungry after wasting 1 hour plus of my time, to find another restaurant to eat!! Overall the experience was horrible, the only plus is the prices was very competitive compared to similar food in the area. I definitely do not recommend this establishment in the near future.

Jose was awesome, friendly, and gave excellent suggestions. The blackened grouper was so fresh I couldn’t believe it’s quality and flavor. Amazing! No overpowering flavors, but just right. The grouper came with white rice and broccoli. Bathe white rice and brócoli were cooked perfectly. Fluffy rice, light natural flavor, and the broccoli was steamed just right, with a little bite to it. They weren’t seasoned much, but it honestly highlighted the grouper flavors and made for an all together healthy dish you absolutely would order again and feel healthy after eating. I was loving everything so much, that as I write this I ordered a shrimp quesadilla- one of Jose’s suggestions. Can’t wait for it to come out! (Update, it just came out and I cant tell you enough how perfect it was. The shrimp was so delicate and the cheese was rich and creamy. They serve it with peppers inside and something acidic to give it a pop and boy was it outstanding.

I came here after work to pickup some lunch with my friend and was shocked to see that we found ourselves a new hidden gem. We ordered ourselves two delicious crab cake sandwiches to-go but then we wanted to dine in because of pleasant calmness inside when usually at other restaurants we are bombarded with a swarming unpleasant busy when going out for lunch. Super underrated lunch spot. Coupled with the food being fresh, crisp and savory we were enjoying it straight away and the customer service from the servers were very attentive caring and not to mention friendly you guys earned yourselves some new regulars we will be back!!!

If you want a great(fresh) seafood, this little place will surprise you. Good food and affordable prices. Only little thing they dont have any alcoholic beverages. The rest was very good. Food is 5 star everything else i would do a 4,5. Overall great experience.

Omg amazing experience! I was looking for a seafood spot close to the airport and this definitely did the trick! I luckily had the whole place to myself which was great. The waitress was super attentive and nice. Always smiling and making sure I had everything I needed. The food…WOW! I was blown away by the seasonings and the from scratch made hot sauce was amazing. Great portions. Everything was made to order so super hot and fresh. Super reasonable pricing. After I finished my meal I sat outside at the seating area they have and just took in some of the sun before I headed to the airport. It was the perfect end cap to a great meal. I’m from OH and I wish I could take this little gem back home with me lol. Thanks so much for the great experience!

So, so good. I had the hole fish snapper steamed and blackened with broccoli and dill yuca. A ton of food for just me, no small serving sizes here. All delicious, and the dill yuca was something new , different and tasty! A nice family run business, very hospitable folks. I overheard the couple next to me raving about the chowder too. Only sad part is I live nowhere near here, but if ever back in Orlando I’ll visit again

Fabulous seafood and fair prices. I would definitely return here. Wings were good and crispy. Also love the sausage, corn, potatoes and scallops.
