“Recently ordered from Mario's for a surprise birthday party for my husband. I worked directly with Joni and Mario and am so appreciative of their hard work to make the event a success! The food was delicious, as usual. Their prices are fair, their communication was great, and we had a lot of happy guests as a result. I will be back for a sit down meal frequently, and definitely be using them again for larger orders!“

“Food was great, service was incredible and the price was surprisingly affordable. Sorry it took us so long to finally stop and give you a try.“

“NOV 1
Our server was Mark we came in around 6pm on Friday evening and the restaurant was half full. Mark was a super great guy but seems new to serving. The crowd was mostly 70-90 yrs old, a lot of people enjoying happy hour. The cocktails were ok. The rice balls were great and the red sauce(Marinara) was excellent.

The Chicken Marsala and Veal Marsala took a long time to come out of the kitchen. We both did not like it and we didn't complain about, it lacked flavor although portions were good. We would not order that food again. We loved the entertainer so much we will be back and try something else.“

“Great Service, Excellent Food, will return. Connor is amazing, ask for him.“

“Lunch Specials (up to 4:00 pm) are wonderful ♥️ and tasty 😋. We had a pizza with salad, delicious, for each person not even $12, lots of fresh warm bread wit olive oil/ herbs as a free Appetizer. Best server, very sweet and kind. We are definitely recommend California Pizza Kitchen and will come back.“

“We celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary last night March 6, 2025! We were very impressed. The food was amazing and the staff was very accommodating! Chef Harold, you’ve done an amazing job!“

“Amazing food, atmosphere as well as drinks. The waiter Chris Comeens was phenomenal!!“

“🤓I am not much of a detective, (except when the crime is grammar, ha ha), yet I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciate the the hard work and professionalism of everyone at Ft MMMDT: five star dinner and five star experience. I note Amanda, a SemGulf All Star, and am most appreciative of her. She took several frantic phone calls from me because I couldn't even solve the mysteries of Waze and Maps circling Colonial Blvd, Winkler, Metro, Hanson, and Airport for one hour before arriving at the depot at 6:20pm. Despite our tardiness, Amanda shepherded us to our train car where John (aka Major Drake Payne) and Taylor (our principal server) calmly and efficiently repeated what they had already instructed passengers. The troop brought nourishment and entertainment as the train rocked.I apologize to the car's prompt passengers also--or perhaps, they realized that I was no competitive sleuth--heck, I couldn't find a massive train much less nab a felon. 🤓“

“LOVE this place! One of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. The breakfast burrito is as big as a meatloaf, and the homemade donuts are to die for! Staff was really friendly, service was great, and the decor is so colorful and fun! Best of all is their mission to help foster kids! My only “complaint” is that they are in Ft Myers and not in Cincinnati ❤️“

“A group of four of us were served by Dylan G. None of us were very tech savvy, so we had some difficulty with the app. Dylan could not have been more patient, and helped us get through the entire process. The food was delicious! Dylan took very good care us, making sure we getting what we wanted. Thank you for making our visit a good one!“

“Went to this little gem twice in two days. After having the most delicious pumpkin ravioli and side salad. Other diners enjoyed soups, salads, mahi tacos, truffle fries and Mediterranean wrap. Everyone encountered here was friendly and helpful with guiding us with our orders. They have a decent beer and wine selection for a small place (if that’s a priority) to accompany your meal. We will definitely put this on our must visit list each trip to the Ft Myers area.“

“Our favorite beer is the Dirty Blonde. It's always set at the perfect chilled temperature. The parmesan garlic wings is truly a must. Our server Lindsey was as sweet as could be ask for her you won't be disappointed.“

“Such a wonderful experience tonight! Great food, ambience and service!“

“One of the best restaurants I’ve been too in a long time !!! Food is fantastic!!“

“I just don’t understand when you walk into a restaurant and the hostess sees that you’re using a cane or a walker why do they always take you to the furthest table in the place????? I guess most people aren’t observant or just plain stupid!!!!“

“Great food and great service from Ali!“

“Although it's been years since I've been, I still have dreams of this place. If you like amazing food, innovative menu's that aren't crazy complicated, and supporting small businesses, I highly recommend them. I wish the family of Fat Katz Sports Bistro all my love, it was a pleasure working with you back when your doors opened, and it makes me so happy to see you still living the dream! For those looking for food like none other in the area, check this place out. My only words of warning is this place is popping and the food is fresh so please be patient with waiting times! For those looking for employment in the kitchen (if they are still hiring) It's a lot of hard work but if you work with the boss as a team I promise the day fly's by fast and you will learn so much to bring with you for your future years cooking.“

“Half priced wines ladies! Fun betting on the horses. great space and service. lo Ed tge Baha chicken Flatbread“

“Liz is amazing at the bar ! we go most Sunday afternoons! Food is also amazing.“

“Stopped in quick with my wife just to get a drink and a few apps.
The restaurant is on the second level overlooking the water and boats.
First off, the service was phenomenal. The host was easy going, took us outside but that was a bit cold with the rain. No issue, moved us inside.
Our server was great. He was attentive but not pushy or overbearing.
We ordered the Octopus and Crab Cakes appetizers. Honestly, the octopus itself had no flavor. I've never had octopus before so not sure there, but the scampi sauce was very good.
The crab cakes were also very good and a good size too.

Overall, I would definitely go back.“

“We had a fantastic Sunday with our feet in the sand, enjoying a great live band. The vibe was perfect, there was a wide selection of cocktails, ice-cold beer, and the food was reasonably priced. We absolutely loved the place!“

“Can't evaluate the food, as I haven't ordered any yet. However the rest is quite top notch. Ricky is a fantastic bartender. It is a nice little dive place to hang for drinks and atmosphere. Definitely recommend for a stop in and hang!“

“Had an incredible birthday dinner with my husband last night at Coste. Troy the bartender treated me to a wonderful cosmopolitan before dinner. Daniel our waiter was very friendly and helped us pick out the best wine for our meal. I indulged in the bolognese and hubby had the redfish special ( caught fresh by the chef!). Great views and ambience for my birthday celebration.“
