Peck's Old Port Cove

We went for lunch and were greeted by a friendly hostess. Our waitress Dakota was super! I had raw oysters, locally sourced, large and delicious! Coconut shrimp and almond fish were also outstanding. This is an excellent restaurant, worth a short drive outside of Crystal River.

Went to Peck’s Old Port Cove for a casual Thursday evening seafood dinner on May 1, 2025 with a few new friends from the area and was not disappointed one bit. What a great way to start the month of May in Florida. The staff was very busy, but also very friendly and customer oriented. While sitting at the bar inside we watched the kitchen staff preparing food, setting up plates, and working together as a team and that was an awesome experience. Have not been here in years and I give it 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Everything from the beautiful outdoor views, fresh Gulf of America 🇺🇸 air, friendly people, great food, great drinks, and comfortable atmosphere was warm and inviting. Get out here and visit Peck’s Old Port Cove out on the Ozello Trail Road. You will not be disappointed.

My hubby and I had not been to Peck’s Old Port Cove in years… what a wonderful experience for a spur of the moment choice!!! The staff, particularly Jadelyn and Amber were delightful and welcoming. Every person we encountered, this includes the district manager who was working by the staff’s side to assist in any way, was cheerful and accommodating. The food was delicious with a menu variety. We definitely will visit again! We will bring our dog next time!

Great food and great service. the outdoor area is comfortable. All around fabulous experience!

We booked a nighttime crabbing adventure with Florida Crabbing Charters. Highly recommend this unforgetable experience. Peck's cooked up our delicious crab the very next day. Enjoyed the outdoor view while slurpin' our crabs:)

They open after the hurricane and let me tell you that the food was really good and taste. The service and the atmosphere were excellent.
And the view from there was amazing. I recommend it.

This place is a MUST visit. From the clam chowder, to the grouper, to the hush puppies, everything was delicious. You have to ask for Austin. He absolutely made the experience - on top of every detail, attentive, kind, and made us laugh. We will be back and bringing all our friends!

Shoutout to the Manager, Elisa, and Chef, Zach, for the awesome food. 11/10

If you're in the mood for traveling through the backroads of Crystal River, then head out W. Ozello Trail about 10 miles, and you will find this waterfront gem. When we visited, it was a few weeks after Hurricane Milton, so they were working with a limited menu and cooking out of a food truck. But still, the lunch we had was very good. We want to go back when they have the inside open and their full menu going. We did enjoy sitting out on the deck and enjoying the beautiful weather. We both got the fried shrimp, lunch size for me, and dinner size for hubby. It came with coleslaw and hushpuppies and either fries or cheesy grits. Full menu, they have a lot more sides to offer. They shrimp are big fan tailed in a light coating, delicious. The hush puppies are crunchy on the outside and moist on the inside , and the cheesy grits live up to their name. Their french fries are nice and crispy and nicely seasoned. Our server was extremely friendly and even went and found us a menu that listed all their food items for when they are up and running at full speed.

Very friendly staff. Food options were limited (we were there days after Milton, and only 4 people were eating). View is amazing.
