“Great food and atmosphere!“

“Everything from food to drinks to ambiance to service was first class. Lovely restaurant, we sat out on the patio and it was a perfect evening. The food was delicious and our server Hannah was very attentive, but not hovering. We certainly will make a point of going there again and a new spot to take visitors that I am certain they will enjoy.“

“Love this place!!!!!! Great food and service , feels like your private island🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴“

“It is one of the few places open, from what we saw driving around. The island is sadly still dealing with the aftermath of the hurricanes. \nWe loved RC Otter's! \nMy husband and I came for a late breakfast - we were sat immediately, they had live music which was great and the ambiance is a laid back-island vibe. Service was friendly...albeit a bit slow but we weren't in a rush by any means. The French toast was some of the best I've ever had. Super fresh and so yummy - husband loved it also. He had the eggs and ham which he loved as well. Easy parking in their parking lot onsite also. Note...you won't find much parking in the area. We would absolutely love to come back on our next trip.“

“My favorite restaurant - fresh food and wonderful staff.“

“Excellent bread. The croissants are super for breakfast“

“Huge shoutout to the KIND and HONEST TEAM at Doc Fords in Sanibel! 🙌 We’ve been going there for many years and their food is always delicious-one of our favorite spots for a reason. We had dinner there Sunday and a couple of days later I realized my wallet was missing. I called in hoping for the best, and to my surprise (and relief!) they had it safe and sound- with EVERYTHING still inside! So very grateful for people who do the right thing. Thank you for turning a stressful situation into such a positive experience! 💙 Annette Nilio“

“We had a reservation last night on arrival they said they had to cancel because the computer was down and could not take credit cards. We said we had cash, they then said it could be a long wait before we would be served as kitchen also relied on the computer. We took our chances went in and waited, eventually had a great meal ! Perseverance is omnipotent , from a mixed race party.“

“Oh, I so hope the best for the owner rebuilding this perfect restaurant after vicious Ian. This place rates a 5 in all areas! I breakfast here basically every morning regardless how many weeks I stay on Sanibel. Good luck and I’ll be back as soon as possible!??“

“Excellent food. Excellent service. Unique atmosphere. I got the grouper topped with some “mud bugs” and my wife got stuffed shrimp. Both were fantastic. This restaurant is a must during your visit to Sanibel.“

“Great food, drinks and service. You wouldn't get me to eat fish dip, but the smoked mahi dip was unbelievable! Regulars now.“

“Our family was excited to eat at one of our favorite Sanibel restaurants. Maryann was our server and she was awesome. It was great to be back and enjoy some delicious food.“

“COCONUTS IS BACK!!! They rebuilt alongside the Thistle Lodge restaurant. You can access it via the Casa Ybel resort pool deck or thru the Thistle main entrance. Same great blended drinks and ocean front beach vibes. Full lunch menu too. We are so happy they are back open!“

“I felt like I was back home. I’m from Pittsburgh and the owners are from there too. I met John and he and his staff made us feel welcomed. The atmosphere is nice, as well as decked out in Steeler paraphernalia. So if you’re a Steelers fan, you will love it. My wife got a BA fish sandwich. It was HUGE, and delicious. We also got a 16” pizza pie, the great white shark. It was delicious. Prices are great, service is terrific and food is hot and fresh. What else can you ask for. We will be back.“

“Well for starters the escargot, raw oysters, and oysters Rockefeller were out of this world. Both the red and white clam chowder were like perfection in a bowl. My entrée was the baked stuffed shrimp and hands down AMAZING. Our waitress was YO and she knew everything about the history of the restaurant to the menu. I was very interested in the collection of oyster shells on the walls and she explained that as well. TEN STARS !!! I recommend to anyone who loves fresh seafood and visits Sanibel Island.“

“Great food. Friendly staff. Even better atmosphere!!!! Check it out if you’re in the area.“

“Great pizza and wonderful service! Highly recommend“

“Wow! Had never been until last night, although we frequently visit Sanibel. Can’t say enough about the quality of the food. My new all time favorite. A salad with tomatoes, watermelon, mozzarella, roasted pumpkin seed and a great dressing. Smoked tenderloin was a unique and fantastic dish.“
