“Cantina Captiva, I can’t express how delicious the food here is. We just had lunch moments ago, left with full belly’s and already want to go back. Staff was amazing and attentive. Selections are great and affordable. The inside is cool and crisp after the florida heat, decor is fun. Outside is absolutely perfect for those with large parties as they have tons of space. All around they bring the spice to Captiva!”

“Amazing atmosphere and food. Huge portions. Service was exceptional. We can't wait to come back!”

“We have been to here a few times while coming to sanibel every August! We love it. But this year, we loved It so much we ate it three days in a row! Food is by far the best on Captive Island and service is out of this world! Do yourself a favor and don’t sleep on this place! It’s our new favorite! Lobster, shrimp and the cornflake crusted grouper, a must! Thank you for three amazing meals. See you next August, hopefully sooner!”

“Emma, Tatyana, Circe, Lisa, and Yury have been awesome! They have been so welcoming, friendly, and helpful from our first visit! I'm usually cranky before coffee, but it is impossible not to smile with them. There is inside and shaded outside seating. Highly recommend!”

“Drinks were good, shrimp appetizer was good, and service was good. We both had steak frites - the steak was perfectly cooked. The veges had no seasoning on them and were crunchy. The fries were okay.”

“Hannah, our server was amazing! Very helpful with the allergies we brought to the table. She remembered us from February! (It's October now!) I love the new menu! Everything I've ever had there is outstanding! The decor is elegant and tasteful-so Old classic Florida-with updated feel!”

“A nice location that I visited while visiting the gulf coast. Food was decent, drinks were cold, and overall a pleasurable experience. Visited by boat and had plenty of dock space. Walked up to bar area where we ordered drinks and started tab and walked up to a table to sit for lunch. While we got out food, ended up walking up to bar for another drink. While this part falls on me, did not pay close attention to the bill and realized they tagged on a service fee, which was essentially the tip. I generously tipped on the total balance, not realizing tip was included. Once back at home, attempted to contact the location and never heard back. While it clearly falls on me, think it is crappy when locations tag on service fees for small groups. Mix in a few cocktails, and pretty sure I'm not the only person who fell for this. Don't mind paying island pricing, however the added service charge is annoying especially when you are pretty much expected to walk up to bar and order your drinks. guess the servers had a good tip day. would probably go back, but would be more attentive to the tip surcharge.”

“Love Mango’s and all their people! Captiva Sunrise & Silver King Margaritas are too delicious!”

“My husband and I just enjoyed dinner there this past Saturday and my goodness!!!.. we were not only blown away by the food, wine and dessert; but the service Kelci provided! The Mullett 3 ways appetizer was incredible. The coconut encrusted mahi with pina colada rice (and don’t even get me started on the crispy scallions!) was DEVINE. To finish off with the PERFECT key lime pie was just…well, perfect! We love Blue Dog, can’t recommend enough and can’t wait to go back and truly ask for Kelci; so on it, so sweet, no rushing, helpful etc. everything positive!”

“We are on a girls weekend trip, we came across Pinocchio's Original Italian Ice Cream on our first night and it was so delicious that we had to go back on our second night. Our dinner plans ran over and we pulled in to Pinocchio's at 9:02pm. We were greeted by the sweetest employees Maddy & Talon. They let the five of us in and served us with a smile! We were in and out in less than 5 or so minutes. They made our night!! We made sure to tip well! We likely will go back for our third and final night on the island!”

“Everything is made fresh with authentic flavors and is absolutely delicious! Don’t even get me started on the Torta because I won’t stop. I have tried both the chicken and the pork and they are amazing. The pork is just outstanding though. Stop by and try them. You will not be sorry you did.”

“My friends and I have been coming to Sanibel for 24 years. This year was hard for me personally. Recently diagnosed with Alpha Gal a severe allergy to many things including meat dairy eggs and others. Already was allergic to gluten. I was afraid I wouldn't have food options on the island until I found The Sanibel Sprout. Their coconut bacon BLT saved my life and I went there 5 out of 7 days. The ladies there are amazing and they even have Bible verses painted on shells you can buy. I would highly recommend and just wanted to say thank you for taking such good care of me!”

“This the Classic French restaurant you’re going to share with good friends! We were a group of 10 foodies from various and distinct backgrounds. We did the prefix dinner with wine pairings. Our expectations were high based on what we read about this jem and none was disappointed. The escargot and onion soup were spot on, the trout almondine and Beef Bourguignon were exceptional, but by far the star of the meal was the steak frites. A sublime surprise accompanied by a bordelaise sauce, a side of béarnaise and a small crock of blue cheese sauce shared by the chef! The wine pairings were all from Bordeaux, decanted and beyond excellent. Do not forget to order dessert! I can’t wait for our next rendezvous”

“I ordered the special which was swordfish on white rice and it was literally the best fish meal I have ever had!”

“Spent a wonderful weekend with my husband, staying at the lodge, enjoying the pool and dining on some of the best food in SWFl. Everyone was kind and helpful. Will definitely be back for a peaceful stay.”

“Panko fried shrimp Very good! Cooked to perfection. Coleslaw flavorful! Margarita flat bread *amazing. For an appetizer, it was flavorful, colorful, and filling. Chicken tenders *crunchy, juicy, filling. For an appetizer it was enough to fill me for lunch. Mary was our server and she did a fantastic job. Mom and I had Doc's for lunch and have leftovers to enjoy for later and will be back again!”
