“ Ordered: Mango Limeade (~$8): Mango Purée, Pineapple juice, Lime juice, Soda Water 6 Rockefeller Oysters (~$24 MP) Maryland Style Crab Cakes (~$23): with saffron aioli 3 Mardi Gras Oysters (~$6): with cajun butter (removed sausage) Jumbo Fried Shrimp (~$34): 8 Golden fried jumbo shrimp, remoulade sauce, fries Little Fin Seafood Platter (~$55): 6 oysters, 6 shrimp cocktail, smoked crab dip, royal red shrimp ceviche Mardi Gras Beignets (~$12): filled with chocolate Aya's take: We were in the mood for oysters and found ourselves at Big Fin Seafood. We had a reservation although they weren't super busy when we went. Despite that, it took us 10 minutes or so to get seated and service was pretty slow throughout the night. We never got our complimentary bread that it seemed like other tables had got to start with and it took another ~10 minutes to get waters. We had plenty of time to figure out what to order and soon enough, our food began rolling out. The Maryland Style Crab Cakes were small but were made with real crab and were surprisingly tasty. I really enjoyed the Mardi Gras Oysters but the Rockefeller Oysters were overwhelming with cheese. I know it's a key ingredient but it just took away from everything else. The Jumbo Fried Shrimp was fresh, crispy, fried golden, and the fries were addicting. The Little Fin Seafood Platter seemed like a good idea but honestly, I only really enjoyed the oysters which were super fresh, plump, and mild in flavor. The shrimp cocktail were also decent but everything else was absolutely disappointing. It seems like they do a great job with the raw seafood but most other dishes can be skipped, in my opinion. Decent try! ”

“ Love the happy hour menu! Piraña ribs are the best and the ahi nachos are great too. Good quality and great happy hour prices. ”

“ Great Experience! My wife and I were in the hunt for the freshest seafood in Orlando and this did not disappoint. We got the swordfish and grouper entrées and they were amazing. The swordfish steaks are 14oz and are boat to table within 48 hours. We highly recommend! ”

“ Perfect evening at Big Fin last night. Our table ordered Grouper, Red Snapper along with Ahi Tuna. Every entree beautifully presented with quality seafood. Our server Logan introduced us to the menu with detailed descriptions. We were comfortably seated in a booth and started with signature cocktails and the calamari. You will not be disappointed at Big Fin . ”

“ All you can eat crab legs on Tuesdays. Amazing. The staff is exceptionally friendly and the drinkies are pretty tasty as well. I recommend you arrive early as the special is pretty popular post 6pm. ”

“ Pros: This restaurant participates in Magical Dining month. That is always a pro. I love this event that happens every year. The ambiance was gorgeous. Huge dining room with pretty pictures of fish everywhere. A big spinning globe in the middle of the room. Very pretty. The service was very nice. Plenty of refills, and very prompt service. Cons: No real cons. The desserts sounded good on paper, but in real life they were pretty disappointing, especially since this was one of the $60 menus. Tips: Get the salmon rockefeller. Trust me. ”

“ I always scour all the Magical Dining Month menus every year to see who's putting forth effort into attracting new business and who's just phoning it in and putting chicken and pork tenderloin dishes on the menu to check a box. Well, Big Fin Seafood made it into my top five this year, so we made reservations and in we came. The outside was confounding. I don't have a lot of experience in this part of town, but it was in a strip mall that was very fancy, but also a depressing ghost town. Interesting. The inside, however, was very fun and grandiose. Giant ceilings covered with seafood art, a nice little oyster and seafood window when you walk in, and a big spinning Scarface-esque globe in the middle of everything. Great ambiance. The service was also nice. I forget her name, but she was very friendly, kept my bread and butter flowing, and knew the wine list pretty well. I appreciated her service. As for the food, we both got the Magical Dining menu and shared. Apps: Grilled Florida Shrimp (ponzu beurre blanc, grilled lime, crispy onion). Perfectly cooked, huge shrimps, the sauce was one of the best sauces I've had in a long time. I sopped up every drop with the bread. And the crispy onion was great for a little texture. Smoked Florida Blue Crab Dip (red pepper jam, sesame lavosh). This was good. It was actually like 90% crab in this dip, I wasn't mad, and the jam added a little kick of brightness. I kind of wish there had been more of it. Mains: Salmon Rockefeller (roasted salmon, bacon & rockefeller crust, green beans). This was the dish of the meal for us. Salmon was a nice big filet, cooked well, and slathered with a magical Rockefeller concoction. Very creamy and bright with spinach. It also came with a an unlisted side item of little roasted potatoes. It was just an excellent dish. It's the reason I bumped this place up from for to five stars, honestly. Big Fin Swordfish - Fort Pierce (blackened 14 oz. center cut fillet, citrus brown butter, crispy capers, potato puree & steamed asparagus). Wow. So good. A very hearty swordfish steak that was proudly caught in local Fort Pierce, and it was cooked to perfection, not dry at all, yet seared very well. Capers on top to add those needed pops of salt, just really yummy. And desserts: Florida Key Lime Pie (fresh house made). Standard. Nothing too extraordinary about this pie. Pineapple Upside Down Cake (tableside flambe). Also nothing too crazy about this dessert. This place focused on and excelled at the savory stuff, that's ok. But know that they pour a large amount of booze on this, and the fire does not cook it all out, so make sure your DD isn't a lightweight if they eat this. Overall, I think this was an overall very good MDM menu. I had never really heard of Big Fin before, but now they are definitely on my radar. ”
