My backend Mahi Mahi sandwich was great. Not overly seasoned. The Cuban sandwich not to salty & clean. Po'Boy sandwich was tasty. The crab dip is cheesy & delicious. Friendly staff, spacious seating & clean bathroom.
My first time dining here was Saturday night with my sister. We were lucky enough to get a table in the veranda so we could watch the Christmas boat parade which was delightful. Our waitress was super accommodating and friendly and helped us with selecting from the menu. The food, simply incredible. We started with the cream of crab soup which was delicious. I ordered crab bruschetta as my main, even though it's an appetizer. They certainly didn't skimp on the fresh jumbo lump crab meat. My sister ordered the broiled seafood combo. Everything was great. The scallops were incredible and cooked perfectly. The crab cake was all crab with some seasoning. Delightful! For dessert I ordered the pumpkin bread pudding and she had the Godiva chocolate cheesecake. I had a few bites of hers and OMG I
Had a decent dinner here while visiting the area on vacation. I enjoyed my 14oz ribeye steak and lump crab cake even if the meal was a bit spendy (about $60). It's kind of par for the course around here. We went in November which is the off season but none of the prices had come down. That's what vacation's for, I guess. #SitDownStandout #SeeFoodDiet #HighSteaks
The fact that they maintain the same high level of friendly service and food for any palate is amazing in itself. I have not lived in this area for 40yrs and last visit was 10 yrs ago but the expectation was fulfilled. Attentive, friendly service from Willa, we had the crab cakes, oysters, crab dip and the non-seafood girl enjoyed her (giant) Caesar salad. The sweet potato fries (with cinnamon sauce) were a treat. It was so good - had to get one to go! Beautiful waterfront views but the winds made the outdoor dining a bit too chilly for us Florida folk! Will certainly return on the next visit.
Oh what a wonderful dinner experience! The food is good, drinks are great and the service prompt and warm. The ambience is fantastic with great live music. No wonder the place is crowded. Schaefer's is an absolutely smashing place to grab a drink, a couple of starters and give in to the vibe.
