Pirates Cove Resort and Marina - Stuart

Friendly staff and local. the filled garnels were excellent!

We ordered 2 fried seafood dinner. We were served 2 baked seafood dinners which were $4.00 more each. When we told the waitress this was not what we ordered she gave several excuses but did not take off the added cost. $8.00 is no big deal to me but a bad attitude and excuse of hard time hearing irritated me. Food was good.

NO masks worn by employees inside or out! SO off putting, to have someone standing over you, breathing down on you. We are locals who work full time in healthcare and see first hand that Covid STILL exists! In fact, even though it is April 2021, it is on the RISE in FL again. This place is a good example of why. We are dining out because we have had our vaccines but I assure you, this staff look at like you’re an alien if you arrive in a mask. People were smoking at outdoor tables and hanging on each other at the bar. On top of that our server (short, rough looking brunette) was INCREDIBLY RUDE the entire time. She rushed from the kitchen to shout at my guest that the crab was no longer available and to have the shrimp scampi. Did not even ASK what she wanted or give her a chance to look at the menu again. My guest was so pressured that she quickly agreed. The server was clearly angry, no smile or personality, running around like her pants were on fire or as if she wanted to kick some a . Far from a relaxing evening. We were nothing but kind, she was so intimidating we thought she might spit in our food if we dared to ask her drink refills. Watered down with too much ice in plastic cups anyway. When we sat down and I asked for a drink menu and later a dessert menu she shot me a look like how dare I ask for special treatment and angrily she said no. It was a bother for her to bring us dessert! We were trying to spend more money, what’s the problem? The small portion of scampi looked dry and my guest admitted it had no flavor (let alone only a few shrimp for a steep price) and my dish lacked flavor as well. The calamari batter was completely bland too. We received no bread. The food was rushed out like they just want to turn over tables. If you want live music and a beautiful water view, save yourself the embarrassment and take your guests to Sailors Return instead, where the food is outstanding, the service is excellent and they respect their customers!

Waitress was excellent but kitchen help didn’t send out correct order for one of our party and one of the bar drinks was not what was ordered. We were a party of 4 with reservations. My meal came out 5 minutes after the rest of party. Appeared as if there was not enough staff in the kitchen and what help they had lacked training. Our waitress was great however, stated she had only been employed for 2 weeks.Food was good but for the money the portions were small , no rolls.

Food was way over priced and not as good as it usually our waitress was very good and attendant. I had the Shrimp Scampi with fettucine noodles which for the price at a seafood restaurant was $25 and a little high for the amount of food I received, considering there were 5 shrimp no sauce with the noodles and a small portion.. I will go back it is one of our favorite places but??? !!!! will it get back to what it was???
