Great stop for lunch. Highly recommend splitting the shrimp and grouper bites. And, if you need some “CIGS”…

It looks like a hole in the wall but you can tell this is a locals favorite. With a steady flow of customers we knew it would be good. We were quickly seated and our drink orders were taken. Lobster and corn bisque was amazing. We ordered the Grilled Cheese, Crab Cobb salad and a Petite filet. We also ordered some Onion rings. There wasn't anything that wasn't amazing. Perfectly cooked onion rings with the right amount of seasoning, not greasy and the onion didn't slide out when you take a bite. The filet was cooked like ordered, medium rare. The flavor was outstanding. And very tender. They loved the grilled cheeses. Very unique but delicious. My crab cobb salad was filling and also delicious. We also got the Key Lime pie and salted caramel cheesecake for dessert. Everything that came out of the kitchen not only smelled but looked amazing. All in all an amazing experience.
My only concern and I'm sorry to say this is that I believe the crab may have been spoiled as I was violently sick the next day. It only happened to me and I'm the only one that ate crabmeat.

Placed our order, sat for over an hour, no food. People who came after us got their meals. Got up and left. Waitress never put our orders in, no apologies, nothing!

My wife and I just had the best burgers and onion rings there. Really cool bar also.

If you’re looking for a true Boca Grande dining experience, The Temptation is it!! Try the “Hot Temp” appetizer! Yummmm😋

Thank you for making our 36th anniversary one of the best we have ever had. The chef and soue-chefs know what they are doing. The wait staff and their helpers are amazing. We never had to ask for anything. Our glass always stayed full, and our finished plates were picked up right away. We are already planning to go their for our 37th. Thank you again for a great night out.

Excellent restaurant! The food is delicious and the service is second to none! Such friendly place.
We were so disappointed on June 27, 2024. We have gone to Temptation for the past several years as a group of 12 or more. We were hoping to be able to sit where we always sat- all together. The waitress with the long dark hair was very rude and curtly said we could not sit there because it was for other customers. We were the ONLY ones in the restaurant. I mentioned we’ve sat there the past several years and she curtly said she’s been there for 8 years. I was shocked at how rudely she responded with each exchange. We broke our annual tradition and went down the road to Keylime Bistro who very nicely welcomed us.

I rarely give reviews but service was so rude that we left 2 minutes after walking into the restaurant. Not sure who the person “who’s worked there for 8 years” is, but our group left before even being seated, which not a single person in our group has ever done to any restaurant ever in any of our lives. Losing $250+ on business when we were the ONLY group in the restaurant.

We went for dinner twice this week. Jessica waited on us both times and was very attentive and kind. The steaks were excellent—we had ribeye and filet between our visit. The pan friend snapper was probably my favorite fish dish on the island. Desserts were excellent as well- we particularly enjoyed the Dulce de Leche cheesecake and the peanut butter pie.

Nice, casual dining that’s a bit pricey but offers great food! Wonderful service.
