The Growling Gator Reviews
Ate here, took forever to have our orders taken and even longer to actually get the food, only for two of the four of us fall ill from food poisoning caused by either the chicken or the shrimp they both ate, I called and they were absolutely no help at all
Our family came to dine here and all of us who ate chicken eneded up extremely sick. We called the restaurant to report it and they said they had nothing to do with it and it wasn't their fault. Terrible customer service to give your patrons food poisoning after they spend a ton of money there and then don't offer any form of reimbursement other than 1 free meal, as if we would ever want to eat there again...
We waited a long time for our food and spent $200 just to be horribly and violently sick a few hours later. Management said it was not their fault and they could not do anything.
Menu
The Growling Gator is a great spot for lunch or dinner on the beach, offering good food and friendly service at prices similar to other restaurants. Enjoy the stunning beach views from the patio while savoring delicious dishes like fish and chips or chicken tenders, often paired with a cold beer. The restaurant is serving seafood and different kind of drinks which really taste good. Its location is the best in the place as it is located directly beside the beach with a very beautiful view and special vibes. The salads are fresh and delicious, including the beet salad and pear salad. The food is delicious and the service is friendly and quick. While some items like the fries are not great, the atmosphere is welcoming, making it a popular choice for visitors.
