Stumpknockers Restaurant

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Must-Visit Gem on the River! From the moment we walked into Stumpknockers on the River, we felt completely at home. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and every staff member we encountered was genuinely friendly. Service was lightning fast without feeling rushed — just perfect. We started with the Iced Tea and Lemonade, which were both refreshing and hit the spot. The grouper stole the show — unbelievably fresh, flaky, and seasoned to absolute perfection. The sweet potato was melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and the loaded baked potato was packed with flavor. We also tried the cream of broccoli and Cajun beef soups, and each one was hearty, comforting, and full of rich flavor. It’s rare to find a place where every single thing you try exceeds expectations — but this was one of those rare finds! We highly recommend Stumpknockers and can’t wait to come back again. Whether you're local or just passing through, be sure to check them out.

Ate here today and was very disappointed with the food and condition of the restaurant. Ordered the seafood platter and the hush puppies were not cooked through, the fried fish was hard cooked and the crab cake wouldn’t even take a fork to it, the outer shell it was so hard. My opinion is the grease temperature was was to high?? Also the condition of the restaurant needs to have updates and remodeled. Disappointed with paying $52 On a positive note, the waitress was very attentive. Both my wife and myself gave it a C-

DO NOT COME HERE. THEY OVER COOK YOUR STEAK AND ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO MAKE YOU ANOTHER ONE. THE OWNER IS THE BIGGEST A-HOLE. CUSTOMER'S ARE NOT TREATED WELL HERE. WHAT RESTAURANT REFUSES TO MAKE YOUR EXPERIENCE AND FOOD BETTER. SPENDING $30 ON STEAK, AND I CANT GET IT COOKED MY WAY, WTF.

Excellent variety of seafood offered. The stuffed flounder and Sea Scallops were very tasty. The staff was friendly and on point. They have comfortable interior seating and the option of outdoor seating too. This is at the top of my list for an authentic Florida seafood experience. Will be coming here often.

Nice location on the river and very good service. But the food lacks inspiration and flavour. Vegetables were overcooked and too salty. Also decor is stale and needs refreshing

Vegetarian options: Nothing here for vegetarians

Every time that I come here for lunch they are closed.
They have the worst restaurant hours I have ever seen.

Nice atmosphere on the river... possibly outdoor seating only? We were seated right under a tree that kept dropping leaves on our table, food and drinks. Good service though. Basically only dinners on the menu, no sandwhiches.

Fantastic service and food!
