Restaurants near Matlacha

“My husband and I just enjoyed dinner there this past Saturday and my goodness!!!.. we were not only blown away by the food, wine and dessert; but the service Kelci provided! The Mullett 3 ways appetizer was incredible. The coconut encrusted mahi with pina colada rice (and don’t even get me started on the crispy scallions!) was DEVINE. To finish off with the PERFECT key lime pie was just…well, perfect! We love Blue Dog, can’t recommend enough and can’t wait to go back and truly ask for Kelci; so on it, so sweet, no rushing, helpful etc. everything positive!”

“Wonderful experience! Food and coffee is amazing! Everyone from staff to locals are so welcoming and sweet. My toddler was awe’d over and treated like a princess. We love Matlacha. #StrongerThanAHurricane”

“South Side native here. On top of the great service and warm welcomes, Big Herm's has the only legit garden-style Chicago dog in the Cape. The garden dog includes cucumbers. The pizza is amazing too—perfect tavern-style crust, Greco sausage, and the cheese is just right. I highly recommend them if you’re in SW or NW Cape or out on the islands.”

“Always love their samples all you want!”

“Not only did he come to my home and was extremely professional, but made it a wonderful event!! I have had steaks from here to California up to Canada and back down here to Florida… nobody makes a stake like this man!! he does a reverse sear and everything has done to perfection along with the sides. I highly recommend him for any private event that you would have and he’ll come right to your home!! He is worth every penny spent! Thank you, Mr. John… Outstanding job, sir Five stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Today marked a memorable occasion, and my husband and I chose to celebrate at our beloved, favorite Masala Mantra Indian Bistro. It's our anniversary! The food and service there never fail to impress. I often find myself declaring Indian cuisine as my top pick among all the international flavors out there! The warmth of Indian hospitality is truly delightful. Our waiter, Akhil, is exceptional—his attentive and meticulous service stands out every time. The restaurant consistently maintains a pristine, fresh, and elegantly appointed atmosphere. Akhil and the manager went above and beyond to make our anniversary unforgettable. They surprised us with a scrumptious slice of mango cheesecake, adorned with a candle, and handed me a lighter to ignite it and mark the occasion! How thoughtful is that? Akhil even offered to capture some photos of us. A heartfelt thank you to the team for making us feel so valued! My husband and I highly recommend this restaurant. I wanted to share a few snapshots here. Miriam & John”

“Justina and Kaitlin at 3 Pepper really said “customer service, but make it legendary.”
Came in hungry. Left spiritually fulfilled.
Justina and Kaitlin were moving like a well-oiled anime protagonist duo—orders flying, vibes immaculate, zero misses.
Food hit so hard it had me like:
👉 “This isn’t fast food… this is a lifestyle.”
Service so good I briefly considered leaving a tip, a thank-you card, and my firstborn.
If kindness were a seasoning, these two would be extra spicy 🌶️🌶️🌶️
10/10
Would eat again
Would trust them with my order
Would follow them into battle”

“Best Cuban sandwich I’ve ever eaten! Had a couple while visiting Florida and collados was the best by a long shot! 10/10 will be back again!”

“This place is the perfect casual relaxed Tikki bar. The guacamole is to DIE for !!!! I ordered it on the suggestion of Kat the barlass, whose service was absolutely incredible !! I followed the fresh made guacamole with the grilled ribeye and it was a perfect blend of flame kissed savorieness and a very slight scald flavor to give it some earthiness. The prices are reasonable the atmosphere is relaxed and casual. This place is worth driving out of your way for. You will NOT be disappointed!!!”

“Das bestellte Essen hat uns geschmeckt und wir kommen ganz bestimmt wieder.”

“Absolutely the best seafood in town! The service is always great and so is the food! Highly recommend their twist on calamari! Everything they have even the sides are seasoned perfectly. The owners are very personable and checked on everyone in the restaurant multiple times.”

“First time dining at Gusto and the food was amazing. If you’re looking for a place for authentic Italian food you won’t be disappointed. 5 Stars for this restaurant.”

“Really good place. the cons is that the wait for a single smoothie is too long for just 2 customers in the store .”

“We had a party of seven, including three kids. we got four gyro platters and they were absolutely amazing!! Large portions and filled with delicious meat! Greek salads are always amazing! My only complaint was the kids got cheeseburgers and they were not good. For 9.25, I was hoping for better, lesson learned. But overall, absolutely amazing! I was sad to see Plaka go but Mythos is definitely a good substitute.”

“Excellent bread. The croissants are super for breakfast”

“Food was excellent! I had the salmon with Jasmine rice and broccoli.”
