Excellent experience all round. Wonderful service, fast and friendly but also given as much time as we needed/wanted. Waiter was helpful and took great care of us. Food was excellent and there was so much! We had peel and eat shrimp, snow crab legs and I think the Beach bucket (mussels, clams, oysters, shrimp and crawfish?). We knew we had... more

Been here several times over the past 20 years or so. McT's has remained consistently good for family dining. Nothing ostentatious, but good meals, drinks and service. more

For those of you looking for great food and an accommodating staff McT's is the place. This was my first trip to McT's but it certainly won't be my last. We were seated promptly and given menus. The waiter answered all our questions, took our order and was very attentive the whole evening asking if we needed anything else or... more

During our recent week's vacation on Sanibel, my husband and I decided to dine at McT's, despite the negative comments I had been reading on the forum. We have visited Sanibel several times in the past and on most trips we managed to fit a meal at McT's into our schedule. Our last trip was four years ago, so I... more

Mct's Shrimp House and Tavern is under new management now. Brian who was manager at Timbers has taken over. A few months ago I would have never gone here for dinner let alone bring my vacationing friends. It had gone down hill over the years and it was noticable. In the short time Brian has been ther the cleanliness, service... more

OK so admittedly there is no great flashy meal waiting for you at McT's and if you don't like shrimp you may not find this the greatest of choices but the specials are great and the food is what it has always been simple and fresh. Plus, there are like 20 different fish choices! 20! I opted for the Catch... more

Our last night in Sanibel we scanned the reviews on tripadvisor but could not agree on a restaurant. I love fish and my husband does not. He said, "Don't read the reviews- just the menus". We picked McT's. Wow! I had mahi with lobster bisque sauce and a side of grouper (best of all worlds) and my husband got blackened... more

My husband and I rarely get the chance to visit Sabibel Island but when we do we like a comfortable and casual setting. We notice MCT'S sign and decided to give it a try. The parking lot seemed full but we were seated right away in a booth right by the window. The menu was so large we did not... more
