Food was so good. Had the Seabass special and it was the best I have had. Chef came out to ask about our meal which was a special touch. I highly recommend this restaurant. Service was also exceptional. Highest rating.

The Catch of the Pelican at the Naples Grande Beach Resort absolutely lives up to its reputation. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between upscale and inviting, with a coastal elegance that immediately makes you feel like you're in the heart of true Naples luxury. The service was top-notch—attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely welcoming. The seafood was outstanding—fresh, expertly prepared, and plated beautifully. The steaks were just as impressive, cooked perfectly to order and packed with flavor.

We went here for the amazing gluten-free crabcakes only to find out Chef Fabian is no longer there. The crabcakes are now half the size, and and they have breadcrumbs in them. Tasty, but I can't eat them. The sunset was lovely, and the lights at dark made it a pretty setting.

Very disappointed!!!! Food overpriced for taste ! Service was terrible! No bread brought over! He really didn't check on us for drinks and water and we waited for a long time! Everyone around us were served dinner before us . When we asked why they said it was because they put sauce in my steak ! He also was trying to get us to add onto our meals for a up charge.

The food was amazing!!! We ordered the dynamite shrimp appetizer, the Florida snapper and the filet! Everything was so delicious! We were celebrating our anniversary and they served an amazing citrus bar for dessert with a happy anniversary chocolate on it! What a nice touch!! Sara made the night amazing and Sara was so attentive and caring with our dinner. We had such an enjoyable night! Thank you so much!!!

The restaurant personnel were wonderful, each and every one of them professional and friendly. Unfortunately, the kitchen was a disaster. The lobster reuben was an unholy mess with tough lobster and Swiss cheeses congealed together as a single entity rather than one component of melted cheese sitting on a separate component of fresh lobster meat. The toast that held it together was burned and had to be set aside as unfit for consumption. The branzino tasted to be of frozen texture and seemed to lack any seasoning or flavor. As desperate as we were to get the taste of the meal out of our mouths, we had no confidence that the desserts would be any improvement. I actually felt sorry for our amazing waiter, Adrian.

A wonderful dining experience in a beautiful environment. Adrien was very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly (and engaging). I will be back, especially now that season is almost over. A wonderful place to dine before going to the theater.

I am executive chef and the food here was wonderful. The salmon and steaks were cooked perfectly and everything was amazing including our server whose name I can't remember I apologize. Definitely will eat there again when we come back. Thank you

We were "wowed" by the whole Naples Grande and Catch of the Pelican dining experience. We ate outside were comfortable overlooking the beautiful pools and watching the sun set in the West. The staff was most friendly and accommodating. The food was fantastic. The highlight of our evening was our waiter, Austin. He walked up to greet us with a huge smile on his face and that smile never faded the entire evening. It was such a joy to be in his presence. He took exceptional care of us and made my 85 year old mother's birthday extra special. We will return and make sure to ask for Austin for another special experience.

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, and the service and food were good, but the portions were disappointing for the price. Overall it was and okay experience.
My friend and I ate here for dinner, and our server Erica was amazingly attentive to our special requests and extra vigilant to ensure we got exactly what we wanted! The food was incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, and extraordinarily delicious! 10/10 recommend!

The food was very good. One of the top meals we've had since we arrived in Naples four months ago. We have visited many what were purported to be fine dining establishments here in Naples which turned out to be subpar in their execution of sauces, flavour combinations, and produced desserts which tasted purchased from a grocery store. In contrast, our meal at The Catch of the Pelican was spot on from appetizers to dessert. We took advantage of the Sizzle prefix dining menu and enjoyed our meal immensely. Everything tasted delicious and appeared to have been made in house. Our waiter, although busy, was engaging and attentive. We will definitely return.

Everything was fine but it took 25 minutes to get my check after we said we were ready. Waitress never stopped and asked if everything was fine or if we need anything. The prime rib had zero flavor au jus was dumped over top of it. IMO.... for the prices that we paid to eat and stay overnight you'd think you'd be treated a little like royalty, nonetheless, I could have stayed at a motel 6 and got the same level of service.

This was the first time our group of six had eaten at The Catch of the Pelican and it was a wonderful experience. We all ordered from the Sizzle Menu. Part of the group had roasted corn chowder with the grilled filet. The steak was tender enough to cut with a table knife and everyone who had the chowder raved about it. The remainder ordered the seared snapper and it, too, was delicious. In addition, Farmer Mike's Garden Salad and the Tuna Tartare were very well received. For dessert, five of the six had Death by Chocolate and LOVED it! I had the Citrus Sunshine Bar and it was very light and tasty. We would highly recommend this restaurant.

Erica was our server who was really nice! The food was awesome. I recommend the snapper. It was moist and flavorful. They had a fixed menu which was a great value. I'd recommend this place and eat here again.
