Patrons know Gaido’s is real, when others are clearly not. From red snapper and blue crab to white tablecloths crumbed with panache, there’s no denying Gaido’s is one-of-a-kind in a world of imitation. Now, after four generations of filleting, frying, grilling and baking, Gaido’s has grown into the picture perfect place of traditions– birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, reunions. As the largest fresh fish house on the coast, Gaido’s can serve up to 2,500 happy diners a day. Plus, with the Pelican Club, private dining, catering, a new food truck and parking galore…it’s easy to see why Gaido’s -– for over 100 years – is truly the coastal classic.

Absolutely fantastic experience all around, some of the freshest food I’ve had and service from Trey was outstanding, friendly, and full of great recommendations. The quality of seafood here the highest. From the oysters to the entrees, all of it tastes like it was just caught and brought to you. The ceaser salad is top notch and creamy and delicious. Red Snapper preparation was so tasty and perfectly cooked. This restaurant has been here since the early 1900s, and they make simple and no frills food with excellence and care. We will definitely be making this a frequent dinner spot moving forward!
