Kelly's Seafood is a family-friendly restaurant known for its good old comfort food and excellent service. The staff, including waitresses Carli and Bren, provide a warm and attentive dining experience. The food, drinks, and atmosphere are consistently praised, making it a popular choice for special occasions like birthdays and family gatherings. The restaurant has a cozy, older feel that adds charm, though it could use some updating. Inside, the decor is simple but welcoming, with a few pictures and track lights that some find too bright. Visitors often enjoy the friendly service, knowledgeable staff, and the variety of drinks, including tasty and strong Piña Coladas. The seafood, such as the broiled seafood combo and raw clams, is fresh and well-prepared, with some customers mentioning the Snapper Soup as a standout. The Key Lime Pie is highly recommended for its perfect balance of sweetness, acidity, and a caramelized graham cracker crust. Although the outside lacks visual appeal, the inside offers a pleasant dining atmosphere. Regulars and new guests alike appreciate the good prices, especially during happy hour, and many look forward to returning, especially for the crab cakes and other seafood favorites. Despite some comments about the decor, the overall experience remains positive, with excellent service and quality food making Kelly's Seafood a favored local spot.
