“Our visit to the shipyard was fine. The food was decent and prepared well. I wasn't a real fan of their blackened grouper. The service was decent but not overwhelming. A couple of times we had to wait a decent amount to get drink refills. The atmosphere was fine -- was clean and generally nice inside. However, the atmosphere was quite loud and difficult to talk to over. Since we were staying in Sanibel rather than Captiva, I'm not sure we would drive to return to the restaurant unless we are on that side of the islands.“

“We will absolutely be back! Our ride was perfect, & cool in the shade of the Tiki Bar with a great breeze. Nick played great music & made sure we paused to see some dolphins. He took us to a great restaurant along the water & made sure we had everything for our ride. You should absolutely experience this if you’re in the area!“

As great as our food was, the friendly service provided by Bailley was as good as the food. She does a excellent job with her customers“

“The servers we had last night at Froggy’s were amazing! We showed up on a busy Friday night with a party of 16, no open tables and they opened the patio for us. We had Tiffany and Audi as our servers and I’ve never had such attentive and fast service. Our party even grew 9 additional people and nothing slowed our service. We tried 5 pizzas-each one was awesome. Everything we ate came out quickly and was delicious. Bonus—the live music for the evening was rocking! Highly recommend!“
