Mitch’s Seafood

 

Mitch’s Seafood has a great view of the marina.

Pretty busy at lunchtime on a weekend.

Local spiny lobsters are in season and I came to give them a try.  I noticed on the local news you can buy a fresh one dockside for $20.  It’s $44 for a grilled one plus sides.

Lobster had a fresh lobster flavor.  Texture was similar to shrimp.  Very good tasting dish.  My favorite preparations are fried and Chinese style with ginger sauce.

Corn tortillas were soft with a mild corn tortilla flavor.  Pretty good.

Staff was nice.  Lobsters are grilled to order and took about 25 minutes.

2nd visit I tried the grilled swordfish.

Swordfish was tender, juicy, and flaky.  Loved the mix of flavors from the fresh swordfish and the seasoning.  One of my favorite swordfish dishes.

3rd visit I tried the fish and chips.  Fries were crispy and had a delicious fried flavor.  I could tell they used fresh good quality oil.  I liked the crunchy texture of the batter on the fish.  I wish they had seasoned it like Sally’s Seafood seasons their batter with a mix of salt and pepper.

I was not excited by the mild batter paired with the mild tasting local rockfish.

Staff was nice and the service speedy.  In the future I’ll stick with the grilled fish entrees which I loved.  Joy wrote about Mitch’s too.
