Customer Reviews
This was my first time returning to Skipjack in 10 years. It's a good sign that it must be doing well if it's still here. We wanted to sit at the bar, which was pretty crowded, but we were able to get seats. Shelby, the bartender, was friendly, and we started with crispy Brussels sprouts, which were tasty with a chipotle dipping sauce. We also ordered the pork tenderloin and a grouper special served on grilled watermelon, which of course, I had to try. The food was creative, original, and delicious. We definitely want to try the brunch menu.
Yo! Went to trivia night, great game, even better food. Ordered mostly small shareable plates, but standouts were the Shrimp and pasta appetizer and the Mediterranean skillet. Abby may be the most helpful host in the industry. Our server was Tim, who certainly earned his dough that night. So many diners. Man was busy but thorough and smart enough to suggest we take an Uber home. Thanks Tim.
First visit.... there will be more! Excellent food..... ridiculous crabcakes!! Fist sized, no fillers... my wife got perfectly cooked salmon, my sister in law had the cheesesteak.... it was very good and good sized too!! Our server, Ryleigh, was fantastic... took great care to make sure everyone was happy.... and there were 7 of us! Definitely coming back!!!
First time here. Food was delicious. They cook my steak to my liking, which is not very common. Food took a while to come out though. Not sure why, they were busy at all. Our server was nice and friendly but she filled up water for one person and forgot the rest. All in all a pleasant experience. Update: I forgot to say that it was my son's birthday and we brought a cake with us. At the end of dinner, we ask to see if they can cut the cake for us but was told that we will be charged a service fee for that, a per person fee. So we asked that if we can just have some plates and we'll cut the cake ourselves. We were told that there is a "plating" fee, per plate fee. I think this is ridiculous, if you ask me.
Was in the neighborhood for the afternoon only, never been here before. I went solely on the reviews for this restaurant. And they are 100% correct. I got the crab cake entree...other reviewers on here say it's full of crab meat, which is true, but they forgot to mention that it is filled with HUGE delicious chunks of crab meat. So hard to find good crab cakes these days. I hope I pass through here again I will definitely be coming back. And the wait staff was excellent as well.... very attentive and very nice.
