Pier 17 is one of my go to’s when it comes to choosing where to eat. The food is freshly made and ready so fast. I have never had an issue with my order being messed up and the service I receive is top tier every single visit. I 10/10 recommend this place for anyone wanting to try!

Our server, the assistant manager, took excellent care of us! Our food was served promptly, and it was piping hot and delicious! Very worth the price! Thank you for feeding us so late into the evening, we will definitely be back!

Being from Louisiana, I am VERY picky about my seafood. This place is the closest I've found to what tastes like home. The food is always fresh, cooked perfectly, served fast, and well seasoned! I always get the crab legs, extra hot, with pier 17 seasoning! Chanda and Kara are the best servers there and Jaime the manager is always real friendly. I've gone to two other locations in Louisville and I was highly disappointed. With the cities difference in size, Evansville showed them up big time.

The food is excellent, even better than Joes Crab Shack. Rianna was so polite and efficient and made sure we were satisfied with our food and drinks. I will definitely return. We had the shrimp boil and the cod basket and shared it. Very good!

There was a issue with our food and the manager was fast to take care of us and fix the problem. That makes a great manager. Staff friendly and welcoming. The crab legs, corn, potatoes and seafood bread was out of this world delicious. Place was clean and staff were neat and tidy. You looking for good crab legs, come here. We will be back and looking forward to it.

Had our kids' grad party there for the family. We were a large group, the food came on time, even the additional items as we ate. The server was polite and took care of everything. Food was great. The only issue I has was that the floor was a little slippery. We made reservations ahead of time.
