Corky Bell's Seafood at Gator Landing

This is one the most consistent and enjoyable seafood restaurants in the region! We've been eating here for years and have many fond memories sitting on the back deck looking at the beautiful St Johns River and enjoying their delicious cuisine. Corky Bells is a family tradition and has never let us down!

Though our server was nice she was not very attentive to her table, how to repeatedly asked for refills. Her partner ended up finishing out the service. I used to be a server I get it there's times you're slammed and you don't know which way you're going but at least acknowledge your table when you're walking by it to another table right beside you and say I'm so sorry I'll be right with you and acknowledge them that's all she had to do.

Love this place

Situated in East Palatka, Florida, Corky Bell’s Seafood at Gator Landing is a popular dining spot renowned for its generous portions, reasonable prices, and scenic waterfront views. During our Memorial Day visit, we enjoyed a great band. Gabe provided outstanding service, helping us choose delicious meals and guiding us to the wheelchair-accessible restrooms. I commend the restaurant for its delicious seafood offerings and excellent value. The option to dine outdoors near the tiki bar enhances the ambiance, with friendly and prompt service. The music by the water creates a lovely beach-like feeling.

they advertise a special on the sign in front and when you order the price is $7 higher. the sign doesn't say a specific time. The food was about 45 minutes to come out. shrimp was cold. If you were not going to honor the price then the sign should have been taken down. The waitress said it ended at 4. we were seated before 4. We got 2side salads one was 2.75 and one was 4.75.

VERY DISAPPOINTED…We went for our wedding anniversary. Food was over cook, cold and visually unappealing. Waitress brought appetizers and my husband’s meal all out together. She forgot to put my order in, so my husband was done eating before my overcooked/ rubbery scallops came out. There were hard things in the conch fritters. Tried to take bill to front to pay so my husband could talk to the manager but was told we had to pay with our waitress. I went back to the table to pay and the manager said since we already paid there was nothing he could do. Will not ever return or recommend this place to anyone!!!!!

Was at Corky Bells the food was great but the service was horrible, never have we been treat with such rudeness by our waitress I believe her name was Amanda What a shame that service like this is will keep us from going back .

Food was amazing, atmosphere also really good, but service that Heather (like feather ?❤️) provided, was absolute signature of the place!

Service and atmosphere were about average. The food was horrible. Gator bites were soggy and chewy. Soup tasted like water and the fish was over cooked.
