We had a great anniversary dinner. They met our gluten free need. The food was delicious and server was attentive.
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!
Our meal was outstanding and as server was excellent. Such a nice relaxing dining experience.
Been to Captiva a few times in the past and I'm sorry I didn't know of the gem before staying at Tween Waters. Lobster Bisque, Braised Short Ribs, Cedar Plank Salmon all delicious with good service.
This is a historic location on Captiva Island. We came for a nice dinner and the food was delicious. They have variety of food from seafood, meat, and more. He drinks, more well-made, and a good selection of wine
The service was great and our food was delicious!!! Loved the Korean Pork Belly App and the Lamb Chops!!!
We were seated immediately and the hostess gave us the preferred seating we requested. Our server was exceptional and upbeat. She engaged us just enough to feel welcome and appreciated and provided great suggestions. Food was excellent. I would prefer my crab cakes "hotter", but they were delicious. Views are limited from the restaurant, but after dinner we took time to capture a beautiful sunset from the beach across the way from the Old Captiva House. This place is a must for a romantic meal or dinner with friends.
Waiter brought a different bottle of wine to that ordered. Of course it was $200 more! Upon asking, the waiter apologised for entering the wrong wine and after much deliberation, the manageress reluctantly offered up a 25% discount on the wine. So I was only out $150 due to the restaurants lack of attention to detail. Thank goodness I didn't request a nut free meal, otherwise I may have been reaching for an EpiPen!!
Beautiful place to have dinner, see the sunset. LOVE the history of the building and the vibe. We felt the prices were a bit high for the food we ordered...chicken, short rib and Caesar salad. The waitstaff is excellent and friendly!
Beautiful sunsets from your table. Food and services great. had to send back an ever cooked filet and had one done perfectly in minutes!

The Old Captiva House is so charming and a lovely spot for dinner. I imagine the outside courtyard is magical during the winter! Service was decent as was the food. Beautiful views of the water.
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.
Old Captiva House is closed for renovation. OpenTable reservations says this in the fine print when you reserve. The temporary dining room is located just around the corner in a historic building found on the bay at the rear of the property. The dining room is called Canoe and Kayak. The dining menu is reduced in size because the building and kitchen are smaller. The restaurant was very quiet and inviting. The service was prompt and efficient without rushing our experience. The food was every bit as delicious as the old Captiva house. They served warm rolls and oil. The Lobster Bisque was delicious, and we ordered Cedar Plank Salmon, short Ribs and a daily special of scallops with crab cakes. All were tasty choices. It was a special experience to eat water front in this piece of Tween Waters history.
Some of the best food around. Excellent service. With the loss of restaurants on Captiva after the last two hurricanes, it's wonderful that one of our favorites is still here.
Very unique dining experience with a great union. The service was amazing! And so were the views
