We have been to Bimini’s many times. In the past we have had both great experiences and not so great experiences. Last night was so terrible I don’t know that we will be returning. We walked in and there was a short wait, which was okay with us. We were seated and quickly got our drinks, which was great. The atmosphere and staff are great. Everyone was friendly. However, the food (that was available) was not good. To start, I ordered gator bites as an appetizer, and salmon with a baked potato as my entree. 15 minutes after we ordered the waitress returned to the table to inform me they were out of baked potatoes (which is my 3rd time eating here and being told this- at this point, just remove it from the menu), 10 minutes after that the waitress returned once again to inform us that they were out of chicken (my niece ordered a kids chicken finger meal) and she asked what else we would want- without a menu, we had no clue what other items were available on the kids menu so we asked and the only other option we were given was a kids shrimp plate. (She doesn’t eat shrimp) so she just didn’t order anything and ate fries off of a few of our plates. Our gator bites came out after about 40 minutes with the rest of the food, so we didn’t get to enjoy them as an appetizer. A hair laid across my salmon on the plate, which also wasn’t cooked all the way through in the center and it STUNK to high-heavens as if it were weeks old. I just didn’t eat it, period. The hush puppies were BURNT so we didn’t eat them. My sister didn’t like her fish either (I don’t remember exactly what fish plate she ordered). My husband was happy with the oysters he ordered. Other than that, it was just all-around unorganized and not good. We always take a chance with Bimini’s because sometimes we do have great experiences. But I think we’re at the point of having more not so great experiences.
Super crowded due to the live music by Miss Jean (which was phenomenal!). However, we sat on the bench to wait for seating. Not our first disappointing visit here though. Not one time were we ever greeted nor asked if we needed seats. When I asked to be put on the waiting list, the hostess said she didn't know how long it would be & we could wait if we wanted. Other people came in behind us & had no problems being seated. There was also a nasty leak coming from the bar slowly flowing to the waiting benches. Not one employee ever stopped to clean it up. Once the owner showed up, he immediately asked what it was & everyone just shrugged & said they didn't know. He did however have someone clean it up but no one ever bothered to do anything before he showed up. It was a very very obvious leak. At one point a guy worker dropped a drink right in front of another customer who was waiting beside us splashing on his pants and shoes but the worker never said a word or apologized & just rudely walked away like it wasn't a big deal. We left right after. Not worth it when so many other restaurants are nearby
The shrimp and grits were delicious! And the coconut shrimp appetizer was amazing as well. My husband got the fried shrimp and fish and he said it was all delicious. The peanut butter pie was so rich. We will return.
I got the biminis fish, and the picture says it all!! But yea it was delicious!!
This place has a great amazing atmosphere wonderful people and outstanding customers service!!
Food was delicious, staff was friendly and it was a nice atmosphere. I was going to rate 4 star because the grouper sandwich i got had what i thought a little small for the price. But it was delicious and we will go there again. Top 10 for the seafood restaurants we've been to.
The blackened grouper and Buffalo fried oysters were very delicious. The service was great. I enjoyed the band playing. This was my first time to Bimini's and I plan to come back with my family.
This was our first time and we are beyond happy with our whole experience! The food was amazing, service was fast and friendly, drinks were delicious, and we loved the fun and friendly atmosphere! The owner even stopped by our table to ask how everything was. We can’t wait to come back and bring friends :)
We decided to try Bimini's for dinner on a Monday Night. Server seemed to have attitude from the start. We order apps, Fried Pickles barely breaded and no flavor. Coconut Shrimp, what a total joke, 6ea prepacked tiny little shrimp $10, looked exactly like shrimp from Long John Silver, LOL. Oysters Rockefeller OK, but no flavor, no lemons, or garnish. Entrees not edible, Grilled Tuna was cold and inedible, Grouper Sandwich if that what it was, was also terrible, bunch of different shaped pieces. Ordered other dinner and Menu was an outdated one so a little confusion but shrimp had to be old, and crab legs were also. Sent Tuna back and an older gentleman came by and asked who had issue with Tuna. Asked for butter for crab legs and never returned. Two of our orders were incorrect, we specifically asked to leave off certain toppings and also different side and nope came out incorrect. Group sat 10 minutes after us received food before us and our food was lukewarm to cold. Tried to get someone to speak to but decided to just take the hit and just never return.
Great staff. Hot food and very tasty. I had shrimp n grits( spicy but awesome taste) and my date had fish and chips, excellent...thank you.
