Shannon's Seafood Kitchen

Shannon's is a hidden gem! My daughter and I looked at restaurant ratings and reviews and thought we'd try Shannon's after reading rave reviews; we were not disappointed! It is a small place, in a small shopping/business strip mall but it has about 10 4-seat tables that do not make you feel crowded at all. You walk in and order at the counter but, in our case, the couple in front of us seemed to be taking a friendly not-in-any-hurry attitude with ordering so another waitress came over after we waited about three minutes, seated us, took our order and was so very friendly and helpful. I ordered mullet and grits. My daughter ordered shrimp and grits. Both were delicious! The seasoning was perfect, making the fried mullet crispy and flavorful. Shrimp was also perfection and more than we could finish. We will be back again to try the gumbo, collards and banana pudding! You will not be disappointed!

As we search to find a different place for good food on Sat 6/6/2020 we were delighted to sit and enjoy some piping hot catfish fresh collard greens. Seasoned like a Sunday dinner. The place was extremely clean with staff wiping doors and common places every few minutes. The food was so good we order plates to go. I have already made plans to return. Fresh food great taste and great services. With a smile. Pensacola fl hidden gem. Pastor Luther.

Ordered a take out order to support a new business, and satisfy my seafood cravings. Ordered the debris fries (roast beef and gravy over fries), a pick two combo (mullet and shrimp), and called back a few minutes later to add an order of oysters. Discovered that there was an error, pick two was all fish. Called and returned to the business, and the owner made it right, and gifted us a free “nanner” pudding desert. When he brought the new order out, I thanked Shannon and mentioned that I would include a favorite quote in my review. I believe it was attributed to Sir Thomas Huxley, a British scientist, who allegedly said: “The only people, scientific or other, who make no mistakes are those that do nothing.” The debris fries are a good appetizer for four, a light meal for two, and a FULL meal for one. Fried okra was great, and the wife LOVED the collards more than the fish and shrimp! If dealing with a business, understand mistakes happen and rate the business on HOW they ha...
