The Net by George UNCLAIMED

Looking at all the other reviews, it seems like I'm one of the few that didn't enjoy it here. From the outside of the building to the inside, to the food and the staff, everything is really dull and not very inviting. I wasn't very impressed with the outside, and once I entered, it just felt like a dated throwback to when I was a kid. Even the woman that greeted us was a miserable unsmiling old school mam type who didn't lose that sour look the whole time we were there. Apart from the prices, the menu could have been written in 1975, and I found it hard to choose something. I ordered the Calamari as an appetizer and Clams Over Linguine for my entree. The calamari tasted like the old they were fried in, and the marinara was flavorless. The Clams were tough, and the linguine was just overcooked boxed pasta. I don't doubt all this place's positive reviews, but they didn't come close for me. And to be honest, I think that sour faced greeter put me off from the beginning.

The employees were very welcoming and it's cozier and more inviting inside than it looks from the outside. The menu is very typical of coastal Florida with the usual fried, grilled, or blackened options and combo platters, plus the usual non-seafood dishes like Chicken Parmesan. But the food was well prepared and tasty and they make an excellent Clam Chowder. I just wish these places would get a little more creative and add a few modern dishes to the menu. I enjoyed it but not really enough here to make me want to return.

George is a great guy and serves excellent quality seafood. I remember his old restaurant near the pier and he's done it again here. Our meals were delicious and superbly prepared. Even the veggies cooked just right. Casual atmosphere and staff will take care of you.

Highlight of visit: The Northern Combo has the best fried whole belly clams and shrimp.

This was the BEST seafood I have ever tasted. It is worth the time to go. We met George and what a GREAT PERSON and COOK. Great place to dine!!!

Highlight of visit: The stuffed flounder was amazing and the SMOKED CRAD DIP…..OH my GOODNESS

The shrimp scampi was delicious and their oysters are excellent. Portions are really generous. The service is friendly and welcoming. Priced reasonably.

The food here is fresh tasting and delicious. Their Red Snapper with linguini and garlic butter is an excellent dish and was cooked just right. The owner stopped by to check on us which was nice and had great service from all staff. Inside has a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere and they have good pricing for fresh seafood.

4 of us enjoyed a late lunch yesterday. We had not been here for several months and were very pleased. Portions are large and tasty and prices are reasonable for what you get. The side of pasta with butter/garlic was so large we had to take most of it home to enjoy again. Service was good and atmosphere is okay. If they had more than 1 window that overlooked the ocean we think the atmosphere would vastly improve.

Highlight of visit: Fried Seafood platter, Salmon with a cream sauce (special), Ahi Tuna. Shrimp Scampi was good but could have used another shrimp or two.

So impressed with this place. The coconut shrimp is the best I’ve ever had… so yummy. The owner was amazing! He noticed that my son ordered something he didn’t enjoy. He immediately came over and said… “let’s find something you like” Unbelievable customer service. You must try this place! BEST PLACE IN FLAGLER!
