Well, we wanted to try a new place we could access by boat. Went with a larger party on Sunday. Location was nice, as was the view. Decor and condition of restaurant was pretty much what you would expect, ok, but a bit rough. Service was better than expected based on reviews. Food was ok for river food. Everything was ok. I wouldnt rush to go back, but if it was a last minute option in the future, would be an automatic no.

Casual, on the water, one server during our visit on a weekday lunch - good service. Most fried food - I don't go to bars ... and they don't have crab cake that day . We ordered the big plate of fried seafood - calamari shrimp - they're good. I've chips and tails (?) ... more fried food - they taste good but I always feel unsettling afterward. Oh well, the view is great They don't have deck hand - park on your own. The water level is low, (global warming?) so makes it in and out of boat a bit more difficult. Women's bathroom - you need to pull the door knob really hard to open it.

This place was so good! We came while spending the night in the area on the drive home from Tampa. My 3 year old nephew loved walking along the water and the food was incredible.

What a charming spot Hooks is!Hooks is everything you want from a waterfront shack style seafood joint, alongside the lovely chill of a neighborhood restaurant. This California girl loved this quiet dose of tasty Southern hospitality. Sitting outside on their patio on a lovely warm day looking out on the still water flowing by, the yummy smells of the nearby kitchen teasing what was to come - my goodness, I was happy. It just wouldn't have been a Southern seafood feast without kicking it with some gator bites! Generously served, and oh so tender and flavorful, with nice spice and a tasty dunking sauce. Online pics of the fish & chips ensured it would be my order, and it was yummy! The fries were yummy and had a very satisfying texture, though better while warm. The fish was huge and tasty, with the same batter/coating as the gator. It could have been a little juicier but still very satisfying, with an addictive homemade tartar sauce for dipping! To wrap things up we all shared a slice of key lime pie, and its tartness hit the spot - great way to end a meal of fried delights. A meal by the water, with fun tunes playing overhead, enjoying the afternoon with family on a gorgeous day - Hooks and their kind crew treated us to a lovely afternoon meal. I would happily return!

This place is a mixed bag for me. I went to a Christmas party there and the food was great and a wide variety. When I've been on the regular menu, they didn't seem to have many choices and the food wasn't that good.

Fish sandwich was hot and delicious. Fries are plentiful for the the price. Good service and great atmosphere. Very relaxing. Go sit outside on the deck around 3p.m. - the dolphins in the bay put on a show..

Great food and awesome service! The blackened grouper (sandwich and on salad) are amazing! They will also prepare your catch from the various charters along with two sides for a great price :). And we can often see Manatees or Dolphins from Hooks. We LOVE it here!

Great service. Good food. It's a local place so usually it's the tourists that complain.
