Pinchers

Went on for happy hour. I ordered peel and eat shrimp that were delicious! Unfortunately my friend ordered the oysters. They were very scary looking and smelling. The server did an excellent job of trying to rectify the situation by bringing new ones, but at that point my friend was too afraid to eat any of it. ** Went back today for lunch and everything was fantastic!!

Great for a quick stop during lunch. Ordered 6 teriyaki wings. Didn't like those because they were hard on the outside and chewy on the inside. Also ordered grouper and crab cake. Very delicious! Green Beans as a side dish were remarkable and seasoned just right. Crab cake was very meaty and that's exactly what I'd expect. Chocolate cake is to die for but beware, it could feed at least 4 people. It's a lot of cake, but worth it. Located in a shopping center, and most stores are within walking distance from this restaurant.

Julian, our server was very welcoming and attentive to our service needs. His extremely courteous manners made our dinner more pleasant. Definitely will be coming back to this location. People like Julian should get recognized more often since those are the employees that get customers to return. Keep doing an amazing job, Julian! Thank you *Oysters were fresh and delicious.

We attempted to go to Conners for my birthday dinner just down the street but they would not serve our party of 5. So we went to Pinchers instead. Very happy we did. From the moment we walked in the atmosphere was much friendlier. We also had our fur baby with us. They offered her water right away. The food was amazing and our server Abby was awesome. Very attentive and super friendly. We will be back. Great job by all. Thank you.

Service was great! Food was okay. Was halfway through my grouper sandwich when I realized that the bread had mold. I told the server and she apologized and went to get the manager without a second thought. He came out and saw it and apologized. He took the plate to show the kitchen and had them make me a whole other plate, sides and all. I asked them to make it to-go as I had lost my appetite. Then they took off the plate from the order. But whatever you do, get the giant slice of chocolate cake. It’s delicious. We plan on going back exclusively for this giant $15 piece of cake. Overall, the food was average, but the service was great. We probably won’t be going back to eat, the prices were a just little high for the quality of the food. But we will be going back for more cake!

The food was pretty good, nothing amazing but satisfying. I got the grouper fish tacos, the grouper was cooked perfectly and had a really nice spicy sauce. My only complaint is that the side portions are absolutely huge, it felt a bit wasteful. The staff was super nice, our waitress (Sarah, iirc) was really friendly and personable. Everything came out quick. It was a good lunch stop, I'd go back if I was ever in the area again.

Pinchers is a local seafood chain located near FGCU in Fort Myers, FL. The decor is very unique, and had words throughout the table with interesting facts about seafood and casual slang. The service was not good. Our waitress took a long time to get us started and bring our food. Was quite strange when all our food, including appetizers, was put into one setting. The food was good. The appetizers had some good sauces to go with it. The Shrimp Scampi was amazing, and had great flavor and was easy to eat. The salad was okay, and the sandwich was good. Overall, I do not recommend this place. Go to another location.
