“Wonderful seafood boil! Great food, great service, and beautiful view of the water!“

“This is a wonderful establishment. We have been dining and listening to music here for years and are LOVING what the new owners are doing. The food and service is great and the new music format for the national acts is fantastic! This gives a very intimate and personal setting to sit and listen to some great music with a price point you can’t beat for the tickets. I personally hope this continues…Southwest Florida’s own little Bluebird Cafe on the water!“

“Habaneros Mexican Grill North Ft. Myers Fl Stopped by here on a Saturday night at 6 ish. Place was not that full, and we got a booth right away. This place is clean, neat, and decorated beautifully inside. Our waiter was Johnny on the spot with our drinks and food orders. My wife and I both ordered the Pina Loca which consisted of a Grilled Pineapple filled with Grilled Chicken, Steak, Shrimp, Bell Peppers, Onions, and Tomatoes topped with melted Cheese. On the side was Rice Beans, Lettice, Sour Cream, Guacamole and Tortillas. Our friends ordered the Fiesta Bowl with Steak, Black Beans, Picao De Gallo, and Ranch Dressing. We had a table full of Nachos and Salsa for our appetizers and when our main course dinners came out, they looked amazing. All our food was very good. All was very hot and plenty of it. They did come by and refilled our chips and Salsa. Our waiter checked on us many times. Our friends got the Fried Ice Cream for desert which they said was very good, but I was to full to try any. This was a great experience for all of us. The Food was good, hot, and service was spot on. FYI, they do have a Mariachi Band every other Sunday night and they have an outside Patio if you wanted to dine outside. You must put this on your stop by list you won’t be sorry I know I wasn’t. I must give this place a 5 out of 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Follow Me ON FB For More Reviews & Fun Gulf Coast Terry“

“My husband and I came in for a fresh seafood dinner and this restaurant did not disappoint. Our waiter, Justin, was incredible from start to finish. His extensive knowledge of the menu offerings coupled with his exuberance had us smiling and laughing like we were speaking with an old friend. We decided to create our own tasting of sorts from the fine selections of fresh seafood. Our meal included the NOLA Oysters which were baked and served with seasoned butter, the crab cake appetizer which was serving of lump crab held together by a crispy sear and no filler, as well as the chilled seafood tower. Every bite from start to finish was delectable. We had crab, lobster, tuna tartar, shrimp and oysters. Each bite was more spectacular than the previous as we sampled each offering. We have already decided the next time we are in town that this restaurant will be a must! 5 Stars out of 5!!“

“Come for the oysters stay for the swordfish BLT. We had a dozen East Coast oysters and four West Coast, absolutely outstanding. Additionally they have a bottomless Mimosa, and the swordfish BLT was large enough for my husband and I to share, knowing we were going to order the homemade donuts for dessert. This place is a must visit. Everything was so delicious!!!!“

“Great Service, drinks and seafood!“

“While vacationing in Fort Myers, FL, my wife and I stopped at Pinchers near Fort Myers Beach. The service was excellent and our server (Wendy) was THE best! My wife had the Fish & Chips and said the fresh fish was great. I had a sauteed soft crab which was good (soft crabs are particularly challenging). the hand cut fries were excellent, and the cole slaw was very good. I would definitely eat there again if I'm in the area.“

“I absolutely love this place! From the owners to the staff and amazing service! Not only are the people amazing but the food is amazing. It’s a beautiful atmosphere whether you’re inside or outside and I cannot say enough amazing things about this restaurant!“

“My family had the most wonderful meal for their last night in Fl. My husband and I have wanted to eat here for years and finally made it happen. We were treated so wonderfully by Tess, who was most amazing! All our meals were excellent including the soups and salads we all enjoyed. It is such a beautiful place and we were totally happy with the experience. I would totally recommend The Prawnbroker!“

“This was great for our souls in the midst of hurricane rebuild. Great atmosphere. Great food and great staff. Thank you Kylie!! You rock.“

“We had such a lovely evening last night at The Silver King Ocean Brasserie in Downtown Fort Myers. We elected the Chef Experience with wine pairings. Five courses and five wines curated and shared knowledge from Willie our server and level 2 sommelier and amazing Chef Jeff! Wonderful service. We had great food and everything was on point! Loved the beets and duck, oh and the gnocchi!!“

“We stopped here for an early dinner. The staff seated us promptly and got our drink order going. The place has a nice Florida vibe atmosphere. I had some wings (hot) which were pretty good. I wasn’t a fan of the blue cheese dressing. My wife had the Haddock fish dinner which she said the fish was very good. I took a pic of her food, but it was too blurry to post. We dined here on 11/22/25.“

“Atmosphere and food were Fantastic. Our waitress Lish T. was Amazing. We will be back for sure.“

“They offer a very varied selection of typical Cuban dishes, cakes, sweets and food. I have visited this place since it opened its doors and it was only half the size it is now... and it is understood that with time and inflation the prices have had to increase but it is already somewhat exaggerated... some things have increased 200% in price. price. Currently I rarely go for this reason and I know many people who agree with me and are no longer regular customers.“

“Been coming here for years with my family. Everything is tasty. Always get the small pangasius fish sandwiches. The large one is more than we can eat at one sitting.“

“I’ve been all through NE over the years refining my repertoire of Chowder and Lobster joints. It’s not Red’s of Wiscasset but SO much closer. No wait at lunch today and it was 2 hours last time at Red’s! I’d recommend this place for sure. Fresh. Clean.“

“Sabroso todo 😋 muy amables l@smeser@s“

“Hailey was an amazing waitress. The appetizers were delicious. Best calamari I have ever had! Coconut shrimp was fresh and so yummy. The southwestern seafood chowder was amazing too! Atmosphere was inviting and relaxing by the water.“

“First time but not our last. Food was excellent. Server was attentive and made great suggestions. It was a Monday night, in season, we made reservations and arrived promptly at 5:30 and was surprised it was empty with only a few other patrons. This was only the 2nd Indian restaurant I've been to and I can't wait to go back and try something new! We enjoyed the Tamarind Eggplant appetizer, Chicken Korma, I had the option to increase the heat and went with medium, which was perfect. Others ordered Mango Shrimp with added heat to spicy which was very good. The dry fruit & nut Peshwari Naan was tasty, more like a dessert or appetizer then for dipping into the entree sauces. It was my Birthday and they surprised us with a serving of carrot halwa and 2 gulab jamoon (fried cheese dumplings in sweet syrup) for desert..both of which were very tasty, as I was not sure at first what to expect, but I'll be going back and ordering them again!“

“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!“

“On April 6, 2023 our family came in to celebrate three birthdays - 88, 61, and 27, plus there was all ages younger, older and in-between. Our waitress, Karissa P, was better than awesome. Handling things for a 3 year old to the 88 year old. She made the evening better and fun. Just wanted to say thank you and appreciate her great job!!!!!!“

“Excellent service! Our seafood boils were full of flavor, and a perfect sized portion.“

“Fresh great tasting food. Im never disappointed“

“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.“

“Such great food and amazing service!“

“I couldn't decide between the lunch sushi (pick 2 rolls or 3) and a hibachi plate (steak, but I'm sure they would all be good) and since they were both so reasonably priced, I got both. I am so glad I did. I was astounded how good the sushi was, in particular the spicy salmon. I also got a tuna avocado roll. They packed a lot of tuna in there, very big pieces (not too large to be cumbersome, just saying they weren't chintzy, definitely above average amount of tuna). The hibachi steak was so delicious. The meat was tender and flavorful, and also precut to nice bite sizes pieces leaving room for some veggies and/or rice in a forkful if you wanted. I really appreciate places that do that. The veggies were crisp and also flavorful. Very generous portions. If I wasn't sharing my sushi, I couldn't have ate it all and gone back to work (and I have a pretty large appetite). This meal hit the trifecta: reasonable cost, delicious, and abundant. Thank you Hinachi House!

...service was good as well“

“Everytime I come here service is great. I just moved here from New Jersey and ive got accustomed to being a regular. Mike and Jersey are amazing. On top of their game. They offer good suggestions with food and drink and try to stay engaged with their customers. I sit at the bar every time just because they are there. Amazing bartenders, good food, and bloody mary to die for.“
