“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!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Tween Waters did great given that Old Captiva House is under refurbishment, My only complaint was that the venue was small and you could hear everyone's conversation. We were very happy with the food though. We don't normally go to Old Captiva House, but if the food is this good we'll go. Until next time.”

“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!”

“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!”

“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”

“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.”
