33 Best Cocktail Bars near Bonita Springs

“It was nice to have a well crafted cocktail. Perfectly mixed and plenty of options. I stopped on a recommendation and glad I did. Highly recommend“

“This is a pretty good place for a hotel bar and restaurant. However, they are missing a couple of things. First, the drinks are overpriced by $2-$3 each (at least). $19 for an Old fashioned at a hotel bar (and another dollar for an ice ball)? The best food here is the pizza (two topping for $16) which is cheaper than one drink. This is made up by darn good service. Not exceptional, but darn good. A couple of the bartenders make great drinks and are very good. Wait staff above average but nothing you’re going to brag about. No great or normal appetizers. No chips. No nachos. Cheese sticks for $18. Wings, board, or some other stuff that doesn’t make sense for a hotel bar. Missing some basics and high $ for what you get. However, there is no where else to go without taking an U er or car ride. So you are trapped for the prices and what they have.“

“AMAZING food and atmosphere, one of downtown Bonitas best restaurants.“

“Went there for the Nourney/ Stix cover w a date , we both loved the atmosphere and ability to see the band playing , everything we ordered was done right ( no blue cheese olives???) but all in all it was a great spot for drinks and dinner or just drink and watch“

“Music daily is the reason I go there especially on Bloody Sundays for the blues showcase there! Outstanding!“

“Place was awesome ! Manny the bartender did a great job along with his side kick Jonny whom couldn't have been quicker cleaning up any unwanted mess by consumers. I went out with the boys for carribean night and it was fantastic! Great food 👍🏼“

“Come check it out. Great place!“

“Was our first time to Divieto's. Sebastian was excellent. The food was excellent. Definitely will be returning. Highly recommend.“

“We had a wonderful dinner tonight at Waxins and will definitely return. We are always pleased at how courteous, polite and competent the young people are here in Naples. Tonight was no exception. Carmen was our server. She could not have been more attentive and pleasant. We highly recommend this restaurant, and if you’re lucky, you’ll get Carmen too.“

“The best home made straight from Italy pizza and pasta! Seriously iconic Italian food. The chefs are from Italy and they have true Nona recipes. Complemented by one of their cocktails it’s unbeatable!“

“Having visited several Tommy Bahama Restaurant locations across the country, I approached the Estero outpost with familiar expectations—and found it delivered the brand’s signature blend of relaxed sophistication and dependable quality. On a recent lunch with friends, the restaurant’s inviting setting and attentive service set an easy, convivial tone from the outset.

The menu performs exactly as one hopes for midday dining: fresh, flavorful, and consistently well executed. As with other locations, the lunch offerings shine, providing satisfying yet unfussy dishes well suited to a casual coastal afternoon.

If there is a drawback, it lies in the seating layout. The space feels notably tight, particularly during peak hours, which can make the bustling dining room feel compressed. Still, the lively energy contributes to its charm, and the addition of live music is a welcome touch that enhances the island-inspired ambiance.

For a relaxed, enjoyable lunch with solid cuisine and prime people-watching, Tommy Bahama in Estero remains a reliable and appealing choice.“

“We enjoyed a delicious Thanksgiving dinner at The Aura. My husband and nephew loved the prime rib. While my niece and I had the traditional Thanksgiving meal. We all raved about the salads. The turkey and pine rib were cooked to perfection. There were 4 courses and we enjoyed each of them. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.“

“Oak and stone as a whole is great. But this specific location we visited while in town was so awesome! We came in super late and only two other tables and they were cashing out. We sat at the bar and had enough time to order food (to go of course) and had a couple drinks. The staff was so amazing! So accommodating, when we knew they were cleaning to close and wanted to go home. I don’t recommend going 20 minutes before close, however highly recommend for the great service, atmosphere, and of course the good food.“

“Great spot overall. The food was really good, the music set a great vibe, and the environment was welcoming and enjoyable. Chris, our server, did an excellent job attentive, friendly, and made sure everything came out right. Definitely a place I’d come back to✨“

“I love the place, but the Sarasota Location needs faster bartenders. In addition, they need a place for guest waiting for a table to order a drink at the bar. We waited 45 minutes for a table, got to the table and waited 30 to 40 minutes for our mixed drink. We received our food in about 20 minutes, which was great. Jonathan the server was very apologetic. I went 2 weeks ago and Mary Kate my bartender/server was horribly slow. I had one drink and wings and took about an hour on a Sunday about 1pm. She had no sense of urgency and was not attentive at all. I love the place, but can't continue to go if this slow service is the norm from the bar. At the Tampa location the service was great and they had not one table available. Sarasota needs to step it up!“

“I wish there was a Felipe’s in Southeast Florida (Miami!)“

“The best pizza in Naples! They use a signature zigzag crust or a thin crust with lots of topping options and specialties. Service is great and the rock and roll theme sets the ambiance“

“We came just for one night to enjoy the Hotel and the Bar in Naples, and it was a great experience! Our server, Ximena was truly amazing! After chatting for a bit, we realized we even share the same name! Haha Thank you for the excellent attention delicious food and great drinks! We’ll come back!“

“Excellent food and service and a very nice staff“

“Solid choice for carryout pizza. Have not tried their other dishes yet. We have had the Sicilian (thick crust square pizza) and the classic (a bit thinner than a Domino's round but not thin/crunchy like a cracker crust). We'll order both going forward depending on what we feel like having.

Not sure what's taking so long with a sign but it is in the place formerly known as off the bone bbq.

Customer service was tops as they had to pivot on something we ordered but they couldn't make, and they went above and beyond to make sure we weren't disappointed.“

“From the moment we were greeted to the final moments of our dining experience, Alexus elevated what could have been a simple night out into something truly exceptional. Her presence was effortlessly warm, attentive without ever being intrusive, and carried a level of professionalism that is increasingly rare to find.

Alexus possesses that intangible quality that separates a good server from a truly great one—an ability to anticipate needs before they’re spoken. Every detail was handled with precision and care, from her thoughtful menu recommendations to her impeccable timing throughout the meal. She demonstrated a deep knowledge of the offerings, spoke with confidence and authenticity, and made us feel completely taken care of from start to finish.

What stood out most was her genuine enthusiasm and kindness. She didn’t just serve us—she created an experience. Her energy was welcoming, her demeanor polished, and her commitment to excellence was evident in every interaction. It is clear that she takes great pride in what she does, and it shows in the way she engages with her guests.

Without hesitation, I can say Alexus is one of the finest servers I have ever encountered. She is an absolute asset to the restaurant and a major reason we will be returning. If you have the opportunity to be served by her, consider yourself fortunate—you are in the very best hands.“

“Had a great time tonight!
Got the Sunday & Korean taco…yum!
The caserita & blood orange margs were top notch!

Bryan was so attentive & made sure our experience was delightful!
A plus service.

We’ll be happy to be back.“

“It was my first time at this restaurant, the food was delicious. I had the Oar & Iron burger plus tried the Salmon and it was excellent! A.J was very helpful and accommodating on what to pick. We’re definitely coming back to try other menu items :) I highly recommend this place!“

“Food was great. Loved the atmosphere. Zannos our waiter was incredible!“

“Went to Aqua to try a new restaurant and I am impressed. From the gorgeous new lounge area to the staff and of course the food. I had the crab salad stuffed avocado on the happy hour menu. Amazing!! All of the different textures and flavors were delightful. I paired it with a berrytini. I will definitely be back!“

“Great food. Great service. Authentic atmosphere. Highly recommend. Calvin was polite, respectful, and knowledgeable.“

“If you like cigars, this is a cool place if you are am aficionado, this is your dream joint. A big walk-in humidor of every cigar you could imagine. Excellent seating inside and out, DJ on the weekends... just classy & fun. The level of loudness depends on day & time. We've gone on a Sunday afternoon & had an enjoyable afternoon & enjoy the company of other aficionados & it was quiet but on a Friday night its really
Bumping.“

“Best Italian food in the Estero area. Their Italian dinners are exceptional & the portions are huge. This is an every day Italian restaurant which is family friendly. This isn't 5th ave. people, but the food is of the same quality. If you're looking for great traditional Italian food, try Nino's, you won't be disappointed.“

“I had mentioned it was to celebrate a birthday three different times and no one brought a dessert etc. It was in the reservation. I told the hostess and we told the serve when we sat down. Disappointing there was no dessert brought to celebrate our friend.“

“Very reasonable Dining passport pricing for July & August! However, Most unreasonable was their pricing for a glass of wine ($19) was the least expensive on its wine list!! Also, I was charged $8 for a glass of unsweetened ice tea! I think that is highway robbery!!“

“We initially were uncertain where Ria was on the property, and a very kind Ritz Worker escorted us to the Hostess stand. We each had a Margarita ($22 ) which was fantastic, and very refreshing! The snapper sandwich ($29) which came with a salad, fruit, or fries was absolutely delicious! It was fun eating outside with a great view of the golf course. Will definitely return! Our Server and their counterparts were very attentive and accommodating. This restaurant is truly a gem, and encompasses the values of the Ritz.“

“Food was very good, we had amazing service. Everything came out so quickly and it was an enjoyable experience.“
