Florida summers can be sizzling, but at Captain Eddie’s Seafood in Nokomis, we know just how to keep things cool. From fresh-shucked oysters and peel & eat shrimp to our lively September music lineup, we bring together the best of seafood Venice FL, Tiki Bar cocktails, and live entertainment, all in one place.

Whether you’re singing along with the band or enjoying the coastal breeze on our patio, our Live Music nights are the perfect excuse to gather friends and family.
Cold Seafood Favorites
When the Florida sun is high, nothing satisfies like chilled seafood fresh from the Gulf. A few must-try dishes from our menu:
- Fresh Shucked Raw Oysters
Briny, ocean-fresh, and served on the half shell with lemon, cocktail sauce, or a dash of hot sauce. - Old Bay Peel & Eat Gulf Shrimp
Hot and seasoned just right, these shrimp are perfect for sharing with the table. - Cold Peel & Eat Gulf Shrimp
Chilled, tender, and refreshing, ideal for pairing with a cold beer on a warm evening.
“The freshest seafood in the Venice area! The oysters are always spot-on and the shrimp never disappoint.” – ★★★★★ Google Review
Perfect Pairings from the Tiki Bar
Of course, no seafood spread is complete without something refreshing in your glass. Here are a few perfect pairings:
- Oysters + Modelo or Landshark – Light lagers that bring out the briny flavor.
- Shrimp + Frozen Margarita – A tangy, citrusy kick to balance the spice of Old Bay.
- Tropical Punch + Cold Shrimp – Our signature vacation in a glass with muddled fruit, rum, and pineapple.
