I can explain my experience in 5 words: I love Fresh Box Seafood.
I initially came down to Florida from Maryland during spring break and stumbled upon this hidden gem in the plaza. From my week long stay, I ate here literally everyday. After the first try, I just couldn’t resist. The food trays are customizable and such an amazing price for the quality of seafood you get. The meat on the shrimps and crabs is so juicy and tender. I have never eaten such amazing plump shrimp! They also just season their food PERFECTLY. There is the perfect amount of butter slathered on the plump meat and the perfect blend of cajun and old bay seasoning. It is literal heaven. Chef's kiss, I wish the owners would build a store in Maryland.
It is so delicious and reminds me of home. I’m not going to lie, the crabs here are much better than in Maryland (home of blue crabs). Although it hurts me to defame my home state, it’s absolutely true because Fresh Box Seafood is so delicious. Maryland needs to catch up on their service and quality! The blue crabs have so much meat in them and they are so fresh and perfectly cooked. Previous crabs I've eaten were such a chore, trying to fish out the limited meat within the legs. These blue crabs at Fresh Box are stuffed! I also know that the owners definitely care about the quality of meat they get. They always get new fresh crabs daily and they will dispose of the dead crabs. I know here the quality is always superb. The potatoes are my favorite here. I am a HUGE carb lover, the potatoes are my solace, my comfort. I absolutely love how soft and flavorful they are. Also, GET THE SHRIMP. The shrimp is actually phenomenal. I never really liked shrimp but wow. Eating the shrimp here actually blew me out of the ball park.
I also had an amazing experience with the owners and their service. The family-run restaurant is owned and managed by an amazing couple! The service and the love they put into their work and their quality of food is beyond amazing and perfect. They always have these bright smiles and make an effort to ensure that every customer is loved and satisfied with their order. They also remember their customers which makes the experience even more special to me. This is the kind of hospitality id what more restaurants need.
I guarantee you, I WILL be back. So excited to explore more of the menu at Fresh...

Came across this gem while looking for a seafood joint. Decided to give it a try and am so glad we did.
We love to support local establishments and can guarantee that we will be back! The amount of food that we got was crazy for the super low cost (crab, shrimp, potatoes and corn on the cob, plus a side of sausage) Well prepared and absolutely delicious. Seasoning was on point!
And then, the staff. Well, can't get more friendly or helpful than they were. Places like this are absolutely worth visiting and supporting to keep them going.
Can't wait...
Read moreHere on vacation and the family didn't want to go out. Had crabs and shrimp delivered and I am so glad I did. If you want a selfie with a cocktail you can fight the crowds at Joe's. However, if your just down for the seafood this is the place. The shrimp were huge! The crabs were juicy and full of meat. I ripped into them in a way I couldn't have done in public lol. I would advise that they don't come with cracking utensils so if you're teeth aren't strong enough to crack a claw then plan ahead. The prices are awesome for the what you get! Would definitely...
