Customer Reviews
We had a really nice time at Corky Bell’s Seafood at Gator Landing. The place is beautiful, especially the outdoor area by the water. We went around lunch time with a big group of 16, so they were pretty busy. We wanted to sit outside, so we ended up waiting about 40 minutes, but we were having fun and didn’t really mind. They split us into 4 tables, which was understandable with such a large group. The food was good, and the margaritas were excellent. I actually had a couple and really enjoyed them. We were having such a good time that we forgot to take pictures of the food. I’m allergic to shellfish, and I appreciated that they still gave me options to choose from, which made it easy for me to enjoy the meal too. Overall, it was a really good experience, great atmosphere, good food, go
I had an amazing experience at this seafood restaurant! I ordered the lobster dinner, and it was absolutely delicious. The lobster was perfectly cooked — tender, juicy, and full of flavor. You could really tell it was fresh. The seasoning complemented the natural sweetness of the lobster without overpowering it. The sides were also well-prepared and paired nicely with the meal. The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, and the service was friendly and attentive throughout the evening. If you’re a seafood lover, especially if you enjoy lobster, this place is definitely worth a visit. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Awesome spot on the water! We came here for the 1st time by boat, plenty of room to dock up. Food was great, may take a little bit longer than you would like but it is always going to be fresh & im ok with that. The carrot cake was fantastic, could be the best ive ever had. As with every where we go, we sat at the bar. The bartenders were fun to talk to & easy going. Great enviornment, great food, great drinks, you really cant go wrong as far as I can tell. I got the scallops & shrimp alfredo to go blackened, ate it on the boat and it was amazing.
Fabulous food with great portions and decent prices. One unique thing I noticed is that the bathroom towel dispenser was unusually generous giving a foot or more worth of towel in one swipe. The chicken tenders were good even though not their speciality and 5 large tenders. The fresh fish is amazing and many ways to cook it with lots of great side items. The stars of the show may be the delicious tender hush puppies and the huge bowl of captains wafers crackers individually wrapped. So buttery and delicious and crush typical crackers. 😎. Only challenge was they put us in a back room with a temporary wall. Parking lots looks crowded and scary but plenty of seating and wait staff led to an efficient lunch.
This restaurant is Awesome. Plenty of parking, no waiting (each time we've went). The staff is very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and courteous. Wait time upon ordering was very little and the food is absolutely Delicious. Prices are reasonable and the helping is quite filling. Recommend to all. Went to Corky Bell's December 22 2025 for my friends Birthday and now also went Today, January 14 2026 for my Birthday and the foods were FABULOUSLY DELICIOUS again. This time I took pics.
