Sharkys On The Pier Review

I love this beach bar. Great frozen cocktails, and food. The blackened grouper sandwich is delicious.

Lovely seaside restaurant with fresh seafood options!

This place was great. Everyone was extremely happy with what they ordered. My wife had the crab stuffed flounder, and I had the shrimp plate. Great friendly service, beautiful place to watch the sunset.

Great beach and fishing pier. Go out to the end of the pier and watch the sharks and fish get reeled in.

Great views of the Gulf of Mexico. Sandwiches and sushi. All excellent.

A shitty little tourist trap, with overpriced, MEDIOCRE food. I had the scallops, and they were as bland as they could possibly be. My wife had the platter with Grouper, and it was TASTELESS. And the hostesses were unbelievably RUDE. We will NEVER go back.

Good food and service by the water in the sun. Loved it.

I've never been a huge fan, but you can't beat the location on the beach. We went early to avoid massive crowds, but service was still a bit slow. My main complaint was getting no alcohol in my $12 cocktail. I don't mind the price, as long as it has value, not here. Most of the food was excellent, highest marks for the puffer fish.

Everything was delicious and the atmosphere is really nice pretty view.

Awesome people and products! A must go to shop for anyone looking to find or buy shark teeth in Venice.

A little crowded but great service and highly exceptional food! Very happy with our entire visit. Got a little beach swim in before our reservations and a walk down the pier after. Had trivia going but didn't get a card to play... our mistake

Bartender was a grumpy it was like my party of 10 was taking her phone time away when we wanted to order more Drinks. We had a 35min wait that went fast.Dinner was good waitress was Great

THE place to watch the sun go down with a Rum Runner in your hands. Seafood-centric menu with lots of options. But plan ahead...this place is crazy busy! Show up early, and have drinks and apps while you wait for your table.

Will be back for another lobster roll and gorgeous view of the beach

Pricy but views and atmophere top notch so we'll with it

Hopsicker, who wrote number one movie 2 years ago, uh...lives there.. hahaha, Daniel.

Angry people, terrible service. Came in with a large group and hostesses were clearly annoyed with us. Terrible. 2 hour wait... seriously??? They were rude to my grandmother!!! Only reason they are in business is because of real estate. Our entire group ended up going to New York Pizza Cafe where the people were ten times nicer. DO NOT GO THERE

Best of both worlds, food, fishing, and a beautiful beach. 5 stars all the way.

Paid 11$ for a sorry hamburger. Grey colored meat, totally disgusting. My husband had a chicken sandwich which had no flavor. Don't think we will be back.

Sharky's was really great. The atmosphere, the views and the staff were all fabulous. The food was yummy too! I loved the jambalaya and their key lime pie is the absolute best! So glad I tried it!

Clean and nice but the grouper bites are Dry I had to re order

Sharky's on the Pier is an institution. It's a beautiful setting and on a sunny warm day it's a full experience to walk the pier, people watch and enjoy a good meal with family and friends. Their menu is huge, their food is excellent from their fish dishes to their wraps and hot dogs. It's busy and they don't take advance reservations but go a bit early and out your name down...then enjoy all the location had to offer. Your table will be ready in no time.

Fun place, nice little beach, will definitely visit when we come back to Naples.

Okay good but great staff and an incredible setting

Excellent ambiance, perfect beach setting, mediocre food ... if you want good, although more expensive, food go to Fins next door

Excellent food and service. Probably best we've had in Florida so far.

Love Sharkys we always get the same self serve seating right next to the beach.

Very relaxing to have dinner on the beach with some Caribbean music, great food and great service.

This place was great but I'm order to enjoy the wonderful outdoor seating to watch the sunset or even enjoy seating and enjoy great food of good portions be ready to wait an hour maybe even 2 hours I recently went here for my birthday we waited almost 2 hours just for a seat inside but it was definitely worth the wait the food was amazing I just like the atmosphere was great but when it's warm out you can walk the pier and walk the beach while you're waiting for your table so if you have the time to spare definitely worth going to have dinner or lunch at

Fabulous beach and shops, indoor or outdoor seating, extensive menu. Not cheap, but worth the wait and price

Nice place on the beach and sometimes with live music. Not the best food.

I love that it's by the beach. Music was fun last night! Food is good!

Great view, great service, great food. Worth every penny!!

I can't stand this place...the servers and bartenders are so rude. I live here and I only go when tourists are in town. Y'all could actually be nice you know.

Shrimp and chicken were overcooked. Catch of the day was dry and bland, and the menu wasn't very diverse in flavor. It was overpriced, and I wouldn't go again.

Sat on the water, watching the sun sink into the Gulf. I was in the mood for a frozen drink but didn't know which one. So they brought me samples of them all. Chose the margarita. The grouper wrap was exquisite. They definitely lived up to their reputation.

Food was delicious, view is awesome, and my server Helen was all personality. The manager, Liam, was very nice as well. I will be back often.

Beautiful place by the pier of Venice, FL.
Great local with an oustanding decoration.
Great service and good food, large serving plates.

Was pretty good fishing here, kept my kid busy for a few hours, went on the beach and in the water. Had a blast

From the experience, to the food & the view it is absolutely worth the trip. Highly recommend. Our waitresses were amazing as well

Bartender tom was great; however we got there when the patio didn't have servers, but around 5 the server assigned to the area told us to relocate . Extremely rude! We were drinking, so it's not like we were not consuming anything. Furthermore, out of the 8 tables out there only 3 were taken, and nobody was waiting for tables

Drinks, food, gulf and pier. Great atmosphere and nice to walk up to from the beach.

A bit disappointed with the food quality, effort and prices. Don't think i'll go back.

Very nice beach side atmosphere with a good selection of food and drinks. Family friendly. With a nice pier to walk out on.

I loved everything about this place, the food, the server ( Becky ), and the walk out to the pier... What a great time. I would do it again!

This restaurant is an absolute must for me every time I go down to see my grandfather in Florida

Good drinks, unhelpful and unfriendly staff. Take your money elsewhere.

This restaurant with an awesome view and great service Lauren she was Soo nice. Waiting for our food now but it is beautiful here.

Had lunch upstairs at Fins, which is the more upscale version of Sharkey's downstairs. Gorgeous view of the Gulf and pier. Unfortunately 'red tide' was present while we were there so everyone outside was coughing. Was better inside. Food and service were both good. Oysters Rockefeller were especially good. Beautiful outside seating right on the beach. Plentiful parking.

Awesome place on the beach. Great drinks, great service. Pricey though.

Lovely food and enjoyed watching the sea as we ate our grouper wraps .

One of the best places to have lunch or dinner on the water or near the water the prices are reasonable the food is good but the ambience is the best recommend to anyone coming to the West Coast of Florida

Cool place. Expensive, ok size portions. Good service.

Went for the sunset, we were able to get a table up top for 4. The drinks were strong, but that's okay! :)

On the beach dining.
Any closer to the beach & your feet would be wet. Great place.

Paper straws, servers were rude, and what we ordered was either too salty or tasted like bleach

Good service, too many flies but good service and spectacular view. They just need bug lamps.

Brie pizza great
BLT salad great
Service great
Down side is the wait but views make up for it
Suggest calling ahead
