LandShark Bar & Grill - Miramar Beach — Restaurant in Florida

When I heard Land Shark(best bowling beer out there) had a restaurant, I was excited to try it out. With high hopes of fresh seafood and a cold Land Shark. The cold Land Shark delivered, nothing else followed suite. I could let the decor of the restaurant slide, but when I opened the menu I should have trusted my gut and forgo my hunger and stick to the beer. The menu looked cookie cutter to say the least, but the pictures looked like a mall photo shoot from the 80s. I ended up ordering the fish and chips. I thought “I know it isn’t fresh by any means, but if you fry a frozen fish stick with hot grease how bad can it be?” Bad. The breading wanted to leave the stiff as a board fish so badly that there was a soggy layer between the golden outer and the fish contained. The 21 oz of Land Shark I deleted prior to eating must have given me the courage to trudge forward with my meal.

A few details that need to be mentioned. -the type of fish was not even mentioned in the description on the menu. In retrospect, not knowing what kind of fish or where it came from was a sigh of relief -the description said “hand dipped”. This was very hard to believe. -the amount of fries for an $18.99 order of fish and chips was utterly comical. Most of them looked as though they came from the bottom of the bag in the freezer they came from.

All in all, not a good experience. I left asking myself. “Would the stunning blonde haired beach bum legend Mr.Buffett himself, eat here?”

Sadly, I would say no. I like to think he is disappointed. Disappointed that his intention was realized when he made the best possible beer to drink whilst bowling, Land Shark. He is rolling in his grave as we speak with the understanding that there is frozen fish sticks being served at a beach side Dave and Busters minus the games. I will not be coming back here and spread the word to all to do the same to save them from the inevitable...

Stay away! Bar service was just awful. The only reason why 2 stars was because of the live music. We originally sat towards the end of the bar and sat for 5 minutes with any acknowledgment. So, we decided to move closer to the bartenders in hope they’d now see us. Meanwhile, we witnessed a group of 4 and another of 2 that just gave up then left. It’s no wonder why the bar was empty. So my wife ordered a drink and we ordered pretzels. Both were good. All the while, there were 2 couples sitting at the other end of the bar, and the awful young bartender didn’t headed there once. The mature bartender was at least active, engaging with one nice gentleman at the bar. I think she was on the service well. I do feel bad because there were 2 bartenders making no money, We ordered food and was just trash! The double smashed burger couldn’t possibly have been cooked anymore. The fried shrimp basket was disgusting, full of crumbs, and not even close to the $20 value. We had intentions to stay and chill, but were frustrated and left, Hey young bartender, how about offering Togo boxes? Just a complete tourist trap, with crap food. No manager presence at all. I overheard the bartender saying how bad the kitchen was. Being a restaurant owner, these 2 wouldn’t last one shift with me. This is my first EVER review on ANY restaurant. Even if it’s mid, I give 20% minimum grat. This was beyond poor. With so many other options within steps, I can see why this place was relatively empty. Pass please and spend your money where they look...

The fried pickles delivered a delightful crunch, paired perfectly with a hot and crispy exterior. The ranch dressing, with its commendable consistency, enhanced the overall experience.

The chips showcased a robust hardiness, skillfully salted for optimal flavor. The spinach and artichoke dip, though not piping hot, compensated with its thick texture and a delectable abundance of spinach.

The seafood steam pot presented a satisfying combination of Snow Crab clusters, peel-and-eat shrimp, little neck clams, smoked sausage, potatoes, and corn in a seafood broth seasoned with Old Bay®. The dish, served with melted butter and house-made cocktail sauce, delivered a well-rounded, flavorful experience without unnecessary embellishments. It provided a solid option for those seeking a straightforward and enjoyable seafood ensemble.

The Pink Cadillac cocktail earns a solid 10/10 for its exceptional flavor profile. Featuring Margaritaville Last Mango Tequila, Cointreau® Orange Liqueur, and a house margarita blend with a touch of cranberry juice, served on the rocks, it was a delightful journey for the taste buds.

Equally impressive was the "Don't Stop the Carnival" drink—a blend of Margaritaville Silver Rum with strawberry, banana, and mango purées. The resulting concoction was a delicious symphony of fruity goodness.

In summary, a dining experience marked by crispy textures, rich flavors, and expertly crafted cocktails, making it a noteworthy...
