Half Moon Seafood Company

Came here for a quick bite while I'm at Sparkman Wharf for an Elite Event, because as I've said before, one cannot live on ice cream and chocolate alone (believe me, I've tried). Half Moon was the perfect choice due to convenience and speed. For reason I don't really know, I could only be at SW for an hour and a half, so time was not on my side. Imagine my surprise when my food came out HOT and FRESH within five minutes of having ordered? I wanted something that was no-fuss, so I went with Fish n Chips. It was also their most popular and most recommended item on the menu, so why not? I would also imagine it would be fast to eat, right? The guy behind the counter was very sweet and friendly. He was patient with my dumb H&R card and tried multiple times to get the payment to process, which it did, eventually. For that, I thank him profusely. Now, the food. Well, I barely had time to sit down and process how I'm going to cram a lot of activity in an hour and a half, when my food came in. The fish was still hot from the fryer and I had to wait a minute just LOOKING at my food before I could dig in. The grouper was soft, tender, and flaky, complimented well with the breading which went great with the Cajun tartar sauce. I ate all that up quick along with the thin cut shoestring fries. My only complaint was that there wasn't enough sauce, but that's more on me since I'm in such a hurry. I would've asked, but I only had so long to be there.Still, it was the perfect food to eat outside on a beautiful, sunny wintery Florida day!

Channelside (Sparkman Wharf) is a perfect setting for enjoying some seafood! For over $20 I'm not one to fry my fresh grouper, so I tried it blackened. It was good! Not the best I've ever had, but still really good. The spicy/sweet chicken sandwich was really quite tasty and filling by itself. The BEST thing here though was the Nashville Hot chicken sandwich! Get it if you like a little heat- it wasn't any more spicy than Fire sauce at TacThe hush puppies are pretty good and the fries were obviously frozen, but seasoned well and crispy given their small size. Given the fresh nature of the food, the service was still quick. Overall, a good pick for those enjoying a nice day at the wharf. I would easily return here for the chicken sandwich.

The best fish sandwich I've ever had. The Nashville Hot grouper sandwich. Utterly amazing. The butteriness of the fish and texture of the breading/sauce. An unforgettable bite. Little pickle and coleslaw top it off. Quick order platform from the shipping tanker and sat in the sun to enjoy. Cannot recommend more, I went twice in two days. So good.

I ordered the grilled shrimp po boy with a side of Cole slaw. Both were delicious! Service was fast. Portion size was on point. I wish they had one in Philadelphia.

Everything at this food truck looked good. I got fish n chips to go and when I got to my room, the breading was already soggy. The fish tasted great tho! I liked the thin fries but those also got soggy pretty fast too. The service was friendly. It's too bad the food was a flop bc I wanted to like this place!

Other reviews encouraged us to try Half Moon Seafood in Sparkman Wharf. Shrimp Po Boy and Grouper sandwiches were scrumptious. We got one grilled, one blackened, and one fried. All were cooked to perfection. Fresh ingredients were evident. The sandwich buns are toasted and tasty. Hush puppies were sweet enough to be dessert. Highly recommend this place. Don't let the food truck vibe scare you off. My son said the grouper sandwich was the best he ever had and he's picky. We will be back!

Neat location with many counter service options for everyone! The fish and chips were great. I went with the cod but could also have tried grouper (such a Florida option). Fries were thin cut and hush puppies were magical. The sweet heat sauce was def more heat than sweet but great for both the chicken and the fish.

Had a great shrimp po boy here. Also enjoyed that they have thin fries. A nice quick spot for dinner.
