Dixie Fish Co. adds to menu
Dixie Fish Company has announced two new seafood items to its menu: a seafood boil and southern-style shrimp and grits. Dixie Fish Company, the award-winning restaurant on Fort Myers Beach, is known for its fresh seafood dishes and Florida-style southern cuisine.
Available Thursdays and Saturdays for a limited time, Dixie’s seafood boil is loaded with local shrimp, clams, snow crab, corn and potatoes in a seasoned broth.
The dish was recently featured in “Florida’s Table,” a custom video series by VISIT FLORIDA and Emergent Media that promotes Florida’s dynamic culinary scene.
Newly added to the menu, the southern-style shrimp and grits includes a half-pound of jumbo shrimp sauteed with fresh chorizo, roasted corn and spinach. Available every day, it is served with Dixie’s special recipe “Olde Fashion” buttery grits with sweet red peppers and topped with crispy homemade fried julienne potatoes.
HM Restaurant Group owns and operates Dixie Fish Company and Doc Ford’s Rum Bar & Grille on Fort Myers Beach and are open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
An original Florida fish house, Dixie Fish Company’s origins date back to 1937 when it was primarily a fish market, making it one of the longest-standing businesses on Fort Myers Beach. Today, the waterfront restaurant serves delicious, fresh food in an ideal location for guests to enjoy the beach atmosphere, complete with live music and picturesque views.
Award-winning Doc Ford’s offers food with a unique balance of flavors inspired by the Caribbean Rim. Beloved for its sauces, spices and passion, Doc Ford’s is known by locals and visitors alike as a spectacular seafood restaurant, serving up its signature Yucatan shrimp daily.
