Flipper's Seafood Restaurant offers a cozy and welcoming atmosphere with a focus on delicious, homemade seafood options. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, and the friendly staff are accommodating, even for guests with dietary restrictions. The Thai shrimp curry and seafood platter are standout dishes, praised for their great taste and presentation. Visitors enjoy the intimate setting with warm decor, exposed brick, and mood lighting with candles, making it a perfect spot for a cozy date or a relaxing meal.
The food is generally excellent, with fresh cod and flavorful chowder receiving high praise. While the restaurant has a few tables and a quiet, intimate vibe, some guests have noted that the entrance can be a little hard to find, as it involves a narrow flight of stairs. However, once inside, they discover a wonderful cozy space that feels like a tucked-away treasure. Service is attentive, often handled by the owner or manager, and the menu offers a variety of seafood dishes, including crab cakes, pan-fried Sea Scallops, PEI mussels, and seafood linguini.
Some comments mention minor issues like over-salted sauce or cold side dishes, and while portion sizes may leave a little to be desired, customers appreciate the flavor and atmosphere, rating both 5/5. Overall, guests recommend Flipper's Seafood Restaurant and express a desire to return to try more dishes. Notably, bread is not typically served, which is something some guests have observed.
