What mike cote dislikes about Snook Haven:
A dive, but as expected. Chicken Tacos, shrimp po'boy, iced teas, white wine. Chicken was tasteless, shrimp po'boy the same. Substituted southern style potato salad for chips. Small portion for the upcharge and tasteless glop. The waitress was good, the highlight of the meal. It was dead but not unusual for a Tuesday off season. View all feedback.

What a wonderful restaurant to check out! The abundance of wildlife gives it a unique atmosphere that feels like stepping into a movie. The pulled pork tacos are incredibly tasty.

We had a great meal at this restaurant with reasonable prices. We decided to dine inside since we are new to Florida and not used to the summer heat yet. However, we enjoyed the beautiful patio overlooking the water. The pulled pork and chicken were delicious, as was the potato salad. To top it off, we even got to see a raccoon and an alligator!
