Always looking for great seafood. Punta Gorda is limited for this. Any recommendations in Venice area.
Thx Don

I eat at Made In Italy every time I go to Venice so I can't be of much help.

I wouldn't say great but worth a try:

Robbi's Reef - they do a lot of blackened stuff which I don't care for but every time we drive by they are jam packed. They recently moved into a much larger and nicer location.
Pelican Alley - they are in Nokomis, it's an old Florida style dive on the intra coastal and we like them. I like the specials on the blackboard the best. They have the best mojito's we have found.
Bonefish - my only issue is that they are a chain.
I also liked Farlow's in Englewood but my husband didn't.
Bit of Boston - little hole in the wall in a strip center on 776 but they have the best clam chowder I have ever eaten.

So far these are the one's we have tried and liked. I have yet to be totally "wowed". I really thought it would be pretty simple to get really good fresh seafood here.

Need to add one more place in Venice. We both like the Crow's Nest. I particularly like the Nester Salad. We haven't been in a while because this place is so jammed up during season - 2 hour wait for table for lunch.

Rum Bay on Palm Island has a decent seafood pot.
