The Commander's Shellfish Camp

Love the outdoor seating. If you don't want to wait for a table you can get take out and eat at a picnic table in the gazebo by the intercoastal. Too loud inside to relax. It is a small place and a small parking lot. Food was delicious. Staff friendly. Our server went the extra step to make my special dip for my sweet potato fries. I had two dozen steamed clams. They were tasty but very small and a tad pricey. The meal was high to moderate priced for 6 oz catch of the day. Overall a good experience and I would go back.

We were looking for a local spot to eat and Husband came up with this place. As a Navy veteran, this place is right up my alley as the owner is a distinguished Navy Commander. The place was busy and everyone seemed to be enjoying their dishes. Our server Kaitlyn was a delight! I had the fried shrimp and Husband had the mahi fish sandwich. We?ll be going back again soon.

We were driving down A1A and came across this spot on our Google maps restaurant search. We love eating oysters. So we turn in. Limited parking and outside deck seating. You go inside to check in with hostess. They are very nice. We sat outside. The weather was perfect. Drinks are limited to beer and wine based, and they are short Diet Coke. We ordered oysters that were fresh, large and meaty. They claim they farm them out back and serve them table side. You are able to walk to the farm out back view and on weekends their is additional seating. Datil fish bites were incredible, the flavor and texture was unique. Grilled gator bites were also good. The seafood boil at market price was amazing, we asked for garlic butter on the side and it was so delicious. $140 for two but we?ll worth it.

We took the advice of the girl who works inside and got our food to go and went to the pier for a romantic date night. That's until a few kids came down there and ran the mess out of the bell down there. We left our 5-year-old home. Oh, good haha, the view was incredible and the little way to the beach was just beautiful. The only advice would not be to get the crab cake, yes they were fresh, but I had bowls and every bite that hurt my teeth... disappointed bc they were sooo hard to eat

Me? A few times inaugurated with the commander, but I will only go about my last visit to this holiday. Pros: The outdoor terrace can be small, but it is relaxing and comfortable. Our waitress was nice too. I had ordered the fish sandwich with fries and for the most part it was great! It had the perfect amount of crispy, and the pommes were decent. Cons: Nothing to consider! This is definitely a joint I?d recommend overall! Honestly, one of my favorites in St. Augustine Beach area.
