Happy Snapper was a small nice off south side of Orange ave. As shown in the video place has sitting area. But it's not huge. Our server was okay could do better on asking if we ever been here and explain the menu. Felt a lil rushed. I ordered the Blackened Salmon (as shown below) I had two sides. The rice was okay. Broccoli was amazing !!! My mom had the fried rice and shrimp w/the sauce on the side. She said it was okay. I give my Salmon a 4/5 just next i won't order that white rice. Side note for those who ordered the crab legs everything is MP and sides are all sold a la carte. Just little note Will I return? Probably not. I had it and that's all i need.

Visited on a Friday evening about 1.5 hours before closing, so it wasn't too busy. We were greeted warmly and seated promptly. The restaurant has a cozy, dimly lit atmosphere with limited seating--around six tables total. Service was quick, and our food arrived in good time. I started with the crab soup, which was excellent. It had a flavorful bisque-like consistency--not too thick or watered down--just perfectly balanced. For my main course, I ordered a seafood boil. Since it was à la carte, I chose snow crab, paired with corn and sausage. The flavors were on point, and I'd definitely order it again. However, for almost $30, I was disappointed that it only included one snow crab cluster. It felt a bit overpriced for the portion size. One suggestion for improvement: it would have been nice if they offered wet wipes or napkins for cleaning up after the meal. I ended up heading to the restroom to wash my hands instead. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd recommend it to others, especially if you're craving a solid seafood boil.

This is in a little strip mall a smidge off the normal tourist areas, but worth the visit!! It is on the smaller side, with only one bathroom. The server was super nice and helpful. The fish and chips was super flaky and borderline flash fried, there wasn't much crust which made it very light. The snapper sandwich was delicious! The fish was perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked. The tomatoes and onions pair well with the fish on a very fresh roll. Super good!! The one downside, which isn't really a downside, the only thing they have that isn't seafood is chicken wings, so my daughter ended up having a shrimp quesadilla with no shrimp keep that in mind for kids or adults that may not be fish fans.

We had the seafood quesadilla appetizer, fried snapper and some snow crabs. It was all very well seasoned and extremely tasteful. Highly recommend trying the seafood quesadilla!! Service is polite and attentive. The restaurant itself is clean. All around it's a 9/10

The grouper was prepared perfectly. Grouper is one of my favorite fish. One complaint was with the tomatoes. They were a very light pink color and had no taste. The fries were crispy and hot. The service was good

Okay everyone needs to run and have the blue crab soup! Like for real!! That soup was absolutely delicious, filled with so much crab meat, incredible fresh flavor and served piping hot freshly made. Even my husband whose not a soup person ordered it and said it was one of the best he's had. We also split the blackened whole snapper and really enjoyed it. Tasted very fresh, and great seasoning. The potatoes as a side is a must- they had such good flavor! Will def be back- especially for that soup
