Captain Curts Menu

About Our Fare...

We have traditional old Florida seafood fare with a large menu. Consisting of casual sandwiches, baskets, full entrees with crab legs and fresh, local fish. We have a variety of non-seafood options as well.

Our fried seafood offerings helped build our establishment, but we offer other preparations that are very popular as well.

The quality of our products is our top priority. The owners make it a point to personally visit the fisheries and meet the providers whenever possible to assure that we’re serving a product that they are proud of.
