“It is a unique gem with fantastic food. We've been going for years and it's still a favorite. Syllee Creations will offer a Pop Up boutique sale on 4/20/24.“

“The food was SO good and very reasonable price wise. We had two amazing dinners, an appetizer, and 5 beers and it was $100 with tip! The service was great as well. Martin at the bar was awesome!“

“I usually never leave reviews but just WOW this is the place to be. From the atmosphere to the food this place is a 10/10. So much seating and such welcoming employees. The food is genuinely the most amazing thing I have EVER tasted. I highly suggest the fancy nancy as well as the grape salad. I wish I could come here everyday, but unforunately live 40 minutes away. However, I always make time to stop by this amazing location. I would truly live here if I could.“

“The Bay House in Naples makes a confident first impression—one that suggests both polish and a genuine sense of hospitality. On a recent first visit with a larger group of friends, we were seated promptly in a lovely outdoor setting ideally suited for conversation. The space strikes a fine balance: refined yet relaxed, with the surrounding natural beauty enhancing the dining experience rather than competing with it. Service was exemplary from start to finish. Our server navigated several allergy considerations within the group with professionalism and care, while remaining attentive, efficient, and warmly personable throughout the evening. This level of detail-oriented hospitality elevated the entire experience. The wine program is thoughtfully curated, offering strong selections across varietals; our group enjoyed an excellent red that paired beautifully with dinner. While the pleasant evening weather certainly added to the ambiance, the true highlight was the cuisine. Every entrée at the table earned praise ranging from very good to outstanding. My selection—the featured chicken dish—was exceptional, expertly prepared and richly flavored. The Caesar salad also proved a standout and is a worthy choice to begin the meal. The Bay House delivers a dining experience that feels both special and approachable. With excellent food, polished service, and an inviting setting, it stands as a highly recommended destination for those seeking a memorable Naples dining experience.“

“We visited Rib City for a second time and were not disappointed! I would recommend their ribs, you do not need a knife just your fingers! The sweet tea was awesome and unfortunately I didn’t have room for the homemade Coconut Cream Pie but it looked amazing! The manager checked on us and Kat our server was prompt. We had chicken wings and they were outstanding! Again kudos! We will make this a permanent place to eat for us.“

“Enjoyable experience, economical, friendly staff. We will be back.“

“Our waitress Becca is the best!!“
