The staff make the experience personal. They look after the customer. Food is prepared to order. No smoking inside ,but outside they have setup an area out front and back with seating. I dont smoke so it's fine for me. Temporarily closed for remodeling 5-22-18. Expect a reopening in 2 months.

The place looks like the roof is leaking in on the walls it has a mold and it's a bunch of old people not my kind of place with my allergies allergies

A couple of us stopped in here Tuesday after our run at Lafreniere. This was our first time here and we will definitely be back! Definitely a hole in the wall little place but those usually are the best kinds! The bartender informed us that they were under new owners and the bar will be getting new renovations soon. The service was great. The bartender was outgoing and had an awesome personality. I can't wait to see what the bar will look like after they complete renovations! This will be our new Tuesday spot after our runs!

Bottom line. When the previous owners decided to retire and sell this place, it went straight downhill. They are charging top dollar for a mediocre hamburger.they seem to want to cater to the Bud Lite crowd. No concern for better beer offerings or quality food. It sad for me since I live so close but it is what it is. Hopefully when they go broke, somebody who know what they are doing will revamp Tarpon Joes.

Nice place to hang out with friends. Their menu is great and diverse, goes well with a cold beer. The service is great and friendly!

It's OK, this place has a lot of potential. The owner is really nice and the atmosphere is always very friendly. Just maybe need to clean the place up a little bit and put some more signage out front.

Worst service... and if you can get past that don't bother talking to the owner Joe... he will yell at you and basically tell you.. "wtf you want me to do?"...hmmm Maybe stop chatting and help out your obviously new and untrained staff...oh and try being professional and maybe a little nice... Never ever will I return and the group I was with witnessed and agreed... we will never go back!!

Cute bar with a cuter bartender....first time there and can't wait to go back. Brittany was very welcoming.

Solid neighborhood bar with a 'chain restaurant' exterior look. Don't be deterred by the look or location. Bar tender was friendly service prompt, and beer cold. Finally, the food was pretty decent for bar grub. I was expecting less but was surprised. Wings were solid. If you have a flight to catch and need time to kill head on over here for a few brews, a snack, and friendly bartenders.

Food was WAY better than you average bar and the bartender served double duty by cooking while she smiled and poured. Owner may by buying food by the day (half the menu was 86), but the people were friendly and the fare was excellent. When you go, tell them you came to see Brittany Merriitt!

What a great place to have a drink!! The bartender was super friendly. She explained the history of the restaurant. The drinks reasonable. The decor may appear to be old, but the atmosphere is outstanding. This is where I will be going my next time in town! I will update as often as I visit.

We searched for food on the map app on my iPhone and found Tarpon Joe's. Great little dive bar! I had the grilled shrimp sandwich and my husband had the fried shrimp sandwich. Both were great. The bartender had a great demeanor, and the other customers were very welcoming. All around great experience.

I just hosted an event there and the owner is pretty awesome. Great drink specials and we even got into flip cup. The vibe is wonderful.
