Blackfins at Captain Hiram's Resort

Lunch Jan 2021. don’t know what to say about this place. Nice view and easy parking. Service OK. Food was very weird. Every single thing on the menu is drowned in tabasco sauce. Oyster sliders are served in a shot glass of tabasco. Coconut shrimp was covered in tabasco. Crazy! Who does that? Dirty oysters also covered with tabasco. Maybe they didn’t like us LOL! We didn’t complain and went with it so in fairness we didn’t give management opportunity to address issues. I doubt we would come back.

Another great meal tonight! Killer drinks too!

The wait staff was rude. They said that we were “lucky “ to get in because they were too busy. If we didn’t have hungry kids with us, we would have left. Won’t be back. Food was too salty to eat.

Atmosphere is good, service was very good. Fish, shrimp, scallops, very tasty and perfect. Crab cakes were 50/50 chunks of crab meat / breading- best crab cakes ever.
Negatives: Dinners come with potato and cole slaw, and they were out of baked potatoes. Dinner should come with a tossed salad.

Casual and kitschy, but still delicious. Waterfront dining at its best

Food and atmosphere is excellent. The only issue we had was there was a vent blowing right on us so it made it a bit chilly. I had to wear a jacket while I was eating.

As usual, the food and view at Blackfins were excellent! Our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable! The only drawback was that we had reservations, and when we were seated, I asked if we could have a table nearer to the water and was told no by the young man who seated us. He said there were other reservations for those. However, a family came in and said that they did not have a reservation, but they were seated at a table closest to the water. I was disappointed but didn’t want to cause a problem on Christmas. No matter...we will absolutely return to Blackfins because it’s one of our favorite spots in Sebastian!

Good. But entres could be better for the price.

Should have been told when I called them that masks were REQUIRED to stand and wait and walk to the table then it can be removed...like Covid knows walkways. The waitress kept her mask on wrong according to standards. The service took forever. Will never spend money there again. Masks are BS anyway!

Magi was small and undercook. Drinks were ok. We’ve been there before lots of times, but we are going to give it sometime before we return

Started at tha Sand Bar lounge. Great service. Had water side seating. Service and food were outstanding.

Waitress was very rude and rushed. been there many times and usually waitresses r great.

Always get food and service, A great place to bring friends and family that are visiting from out of town.

Always one of my must stops when I am in Vero! Our server was outstanding, the food was very good and you could not have a better view.

Great time , best waterside restaurant in the area.

Wonderful dinner and night out!

Food was overcooked and fish tasteless. Pina colada was weak

Food was great. Service was great, as usual.

We were a party of five and had had good experiences at Captain Hiram's Resort for dinner before. We had also had our waitress before. This time, it seemed like she was quite busy and it took quite a while to get our order placed. Once placed, it took about 45 minutes for the food to be served. We did not order anything extravagant - 1 Crabcakes, 2 Fish and Chips, and 2 Jumbo Crabs. Not exactly rocket science. Of the five orders, only the Crabcakes came out correctly. It was like the cooks couldn't read or understand English. They eventually got two of them correct, but two of the entrees never received accompanying cole slaw, despite pointing this out several times. We finally gave up on trying to get things correctly, just ate, and left. Our waitress later told us that there were many new faces in the kitchen, but it was clear there was absolutely no quality review/control. Overall, very disappointed as we had brought three guests for out of town.

Excellent food and a great selection. Kitchy place sitting right on the water. We had very good service and the prices were good.

I never imagined I’d be overlooking the ocean in Florida while attempting to swallow frozen fish. The movie was better.

Great place halfway between Orlando and West Palm Beach

Seafood is always fresh and service is fast! We love being right on the water while dining. Great atmosphere.

My party of two had an 8 pm reservation. When we arrived, we were told by the first hostess that the next hostess would seat us. Apparently they didn’t communicate because four parties walked in after us and were seated before us. When I finally decided to step up and address the hostess, she asked me if we’d been helped. I told her what we were told and she proceeded to look for our table. At this point, the first hostess returned and was told that our table had been ready and waiting. She said “oh yeah I know”. I was angry that we had been set aside but didn’t say anything as it was a valentine’s dinner and I wanted to enjoy the evening. The woman who seated us apologized and said she knew that we had been skipped over.
When we got to our left-leaning table in the middle of the aisle, we were cheerfully greeted by our server, KB. She was AMAZING!!
Happy, smiling, personable, funny, efficient, ON TOP OF HER GAME! She answered our questions, offered suggestions, took our order and returned to check on us before our food arrived.
Unfortunately, however, our appetizer arrived via another employee on the same tray as our meal, not before. My order was missing an item, and it was cold. Again, I didn’t complain about that, except that I wanted my
cole slaw. It was not at all busy at 8:15, which is about when we were seated, so I don’t feel these errors should have occurred.
Again, our server, once made aware of any dissatisfaction on our part went out of her way to make whatever she could right. Her concern and personality and professionalism make KB an outstanding server and a definite asset to this restaurant.
Given our not so great experience at Blackfins, I can truly say that I would not even consider returning if it were not for KB.
We will be back for another try and definitely be sure to request KB. You should too!!

Crab on fried green tomatoes started things off great

The stuffed flounder was perfect and served in a separate small casserole dish kept it and the sauce right temperature throughout the meal

Matt, our server, did a great job - very knowledgeable on menu, drinks - just the right attentiveness. Manager made the rounds checking with folks and pitching in clearing a plate or so - the whole staff was friendly and engaged

Will definitely return

Great restaurant with outstanding location on the water.

Everything was fine with the exception of the temperature. It was a cool, windy night and they would not close the curtains.

We had a very nice meal with great service. The kids even spotted a few dolphins while watching the water from our table.

Two of our friends recommended this restaurant. We got there in time for happy hour, drinks at $2,50 each! The food, service, and views were great and the price was very reasonable. The only challenge
was finding a place to park. We are coming back!

Great Service. Great Food. Amazing view! We enjoyed our dinner very much and happy to have a great place to bring our out of town family.

Great selection for a brunch menu at a reasonable cost. Also great views!!!!

It looks like you have changed cooks and Restaurant staff.
You have remove Ribs from your menu and since I do not like Sea food that limits me to just hamburgers.
Your drinks seem to have been watered down.
It is for the above mentioned reasons I will not be returning to your establishment.

Nice waterside dining. Good food at reasonable prices.

We have been coming here for years and I think they may have dropped the ball... no local catches. Seafood is flown in frozen from Mexico. Very disappointing...

as busy at it was, our waitress was extremely pleasant and nice. she smiled and made us feel welcomed.
food was excellent. I have been there before and did not enjoy it. But is seems that you changed you menu and it was wonderful. we were a group of 13 and enjoyed it very much and will be back again.

On New Year's Day, I went to Blackfin's at Captain Hiram's for lunch I had a horrible experience and will never go back. I made a reservation, showed up on time and was escorted to a booth with a view of the lagoon. A waitress showed up after about ten minutes and took our drink orders. When she returned with our drinks before she took our orders she said that the kitchen was behind and there would be a thirty-five minute wait before our food was served. We decided to wait and ordered two sandwiches and a cup of soup which the waitress said could be brought immediately. We consumed the soup drank our beers and talked for thirty-five minutes. We subsequently summoned the waitress who went to check on our food. She returned and announced that our order was fifteenth in line to be filled and now the wait would be over an hour. At that point we cut our losses. paid for our beers and left. There was absolutely no apology, no visit from the manager, or no offer of a free beer for our wait. Do not patronize this establishment!

Had reservations at 5:30 New Years Eve. Got seated right away, great view of the river. Food was good we both had a seafood pasta. It was served hot and looked fresh. Waitress was good and attentive, she came by the table several times to check on us. Will bring our vacationing friends to The Blackfin

Dinner was terrific as usual and view is superb!

We made reservations the 5:15 we were seated on time. We wanted to have salmon on a Christmas special menu, you're out of it . How could you be out of the main dishes that early? Also out of out of one of the main deserts. My wife ordered the prime rib it was tasty but not what she had her Mind Set On. I ordered I ordered a hamburger and french fries Stephanie definitely not what I wanted to eat on Christmas Day

Service was a little slow but otherwise it was a good experience and the food was also very good. Management should consider adding a few steaks to the menu. They had a ribeye special on Christmas Eve but I didnt want the shrimp scampi that came with it. Waitress checked and they were not able to offer just the ribeye. Great atmosphere and location on the river.
