The Fat Snook

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. The service exceptional, the wait staff loves what they do & it shows. They are energetic foodies who have a passion for all aspects of the industry. The menu is creative with a fine balance of seafood, vegetables & meat dishes. Their Key Lime Pie is the best I've ever had with s meringue like Elvis's pompadore hairdo. Whenever we have a special occasion or friends visit from out of town, this place is a must!

From start to finish our dining experience at the fat snuck was absolutely amazing. We started out with the blue crab spring roll and it was fantastic. I got the catch number two which was snapper in a coconut sriracha sauce, mussels and fingerling potatoes. On the side I got the cornbread to soak up the sauce. My wife got the creole shrimp and scallops, the flavors of New Orleans in a dish. We finished the meal with the mile high meringue key lime pie. There are now words on how good it was. Our server Tanner made our experience even better, he was knowledgeable and entertaining and made great recommendations. The Fat Snook is in our top 10 dining experiences of all time.

We decided to find a local place for our anniversary dinner. This was truly a gem and it made for such a beautiful dinner. Tanner was our server, he is wonderful. Loves his job and loves providing excellent customer service. We had the steak and snapper special. With a side of corn bread. Absolutely delicious. Thank you for the kind note, special drink and experience. We will be back again. Tanner you’re the best.

I am convinced that Jesus Christ himself is a chef here!! Our server was excellent and guided us meticulously through the extravagant menu. For the appetizer, we went with the crab spring roll special which was so crispy and saucy with a corn and sweet chili sauce. For the entrees, we chose the fresh catch fish and the creole seasoned shrimp and scallops. For a side, we went with the cornbread which was smothered in butter that complemented it perfectly. Everything was cooked to perfection and the meals had never ending flavors that brought it all together. This was one of the best meals we ever had and it was worth every penny.

The Fat Snook, 2464 S. Atlantic Ave., Cocoa Beach, FL, 32931 5 Stars ***New BBDO Numero Uno*** After hearing nothing but good things about The Fat Snook in Cocoa Beach, I was excited when the name spewed from my random name generator. Other than hearing the food was delectable, I also read that they have been dedicated to supporting local food purveyors...no Industrial Food Service? I'm so there! Gina is the waiter this evening, and let me tell you, she is incredible. She is now the new Number One server for the 3Q with a month to go. Game over. Thanks for playing. Gina performed her duties as one who truly loves helping people explore dining at its finest and not one under the guise of an ancient wedbedrip. My only regret is that I did not record her exemplary performance as a lesson to all who come after her. From menu knowledge to effective food presentation, Gina had it all. Maybe it helped that the food was so good, but I have a sneaky feeling Gina could turn a dining experience at your local Waffle House into a black-tie affair, though I find it hard to believe she would spend any amount of time jousting with an unreasonable customer request. I asked Gina for one order of the Yellow Fin Tuna and the Amber Jack Sriracha Mussels. Before I even try to describe the array of flavors laid before me, could you look at the pictures? If I rated on presentation alone, this would be 5 Stars, and I would be done. However, as we all know, all I care about is execution. Hey, someone has to taste this stuff! One bite of the Yellow Fin, and I knew I was in the presence of a master chef. I have rarely had any fish taste so extraordinary. The combination of the fresh vegetables and mandarin oranges assured me I had left the ordinary and stepped into the fine dining promised land. I don't know how else to explain it other than it was otherworldly, complex, delightful, and comprised of flavors I didn't know could be combined to achieve such edible bliss. Forcing myself to move on, I placed a forkful of the Amber Jack into my mouth and died a little right there. If the Yellow Fin was all that, this was the bag of chips. The chef used an orange peel to offset the heat of the sriracha and in so doing turned a mild fish into a dazzling array of flavor layers you would expect to find in a Big City seafood joint as opposed to mild-mannered Brevard County. The Big Boy says, “Hands down, new Number One. You need to go. They book through Open Table. Ask for Gina.”

Our waitress was very nice, explained the meals with great detail. The food was exceptionally good, fresh quality ingredients , amazing flavor. Well worth the money spent. Oh and it was my husband's birthday and they were so nice to give him a personally written birthday card signed by everyone who works there, nice little touch that didn't go unnoticed and was very much appreciated!
