My husband and I went here for dinner. Excellent experience. This place has a great bar, but it is also a really decent restaurant as well. I had clam chowder and shrimp scampi. My husband had the fettuccini alfredo. All the food was delicious. Our server was friendly and efficient. The ambiance was nice --- a really great tiki bar and restaurant located on the water. They had a live band playing and we enjoyed the music. Not too loud. Just right. We will eat here again and tell all of our friends.

For a supposed Tiki-Bar this could be a nice place. The music venues though - they like 3-4 piece bands that do nothing but ruin the character of this place. Margaritaville it's definitely not. You can't even hear yourself think at the bar much less place an order there.

Went to listen to live music and watch the football game. Beautiful setting on the water. Several TV’s to view the games. Excellent live music and great food and service. Highly recommend the nachos!

Very cool tiki bar on the water! Great food, drinks and service. New owners since July 2021 and friendly staff. Live music. We just stumbled upon this place but will be back!

Wish I took a pic but we had the best nachos ever here. Great service. Manager checked on us a few times. Would highly recommend.

Looking for a quick lunch spot in the Fort Myers area? Sea Craft Waterfront Tiki in North Fort Myers is the place. Five-minute drive from downtown Fort Myers and you're there. Pete, our server, was so friendly and kept our water and Diet Cokes full. Lunch was tasty and the setting can't be beat. Will be back again!

Easter Sunday was bill as their pig BBQ AYCE buffet. 1-7 at one they discovered they didn't have any sterno to keep chaffing dishes warm. At 1:20 or so told we could order and waitress would bring food until buffet is set up. the orders took 20 minutes each for food that was suppose to be on buffet already. Buffet was finally ready at 2:25 with manager serving what portion he felt the customer deserved. Salads and shredded pork sauce had to be brought by waitress. The waitress tried her best to make it easy but no-one else at the restaurant seemed to care. Who the hell plans a buffet for a holiday and doesn't have it open in time. some how the first round of potatoes and veggies given to my wife from "buffet were cold. When asking Gator to load up the pork after waiting for more to be brought out I was told They need some for everyone.

A group of four of us stopped in to have a late lunch following a hot day of golfing. We sat in the parking lot for a few minutes, all 4 of us on our individual phones looking at the four restaurants in that Marina area to see which restaurant had vegetarian options. One of us read the menu online out loud, including the delicious veggie sandwich that Sea-Craft offered. The two vegetarians in our group said, "sounds delish....let's go there". In we go and sit down down. Our waitress came and took our drink order while we perused the menu. There were 4 menus brought to us. The Brunch Menu, the lunch Menu, The Drink Menu and a Dinner Menu. As we're all looking at the choices someone mentioned that the much desired veggie sandwich was not listed on any of the menus. As a matter of fact, we could not find anything vegetarian at all. By now, the original waitress was passing off the table to another waitress (I believe her shift was over). I explained to the new waitress what had transpired in the parking lot and how we saw a veggie sandwich but it wasn't listed on any of the menus provided. She explained simply "they probably didn't update the web". We all sorta stared at her for a moment waiting for her to suggest an alternative or another option or possibly a "let me go and see what the chef can come up with"......but NO! Just a dead stare at us, as if she was dumbfounded at such a question. I then asked if it were possible for her to go to the kitchen and ask if they could make a veggie sandwich for our friends. She said no. By now I'm irritated and so I asked her why not. Now this was the answer and I have probably told this story to 15 people since and we all have the same response......"ARE YOU FLIPPING KIDDING ME". Her answer was a simple...."We can't because I don't have a button for that". I nearly LOL because I couldn't believe i was hearing this ridiculous and quite frankly STUPID answer. I said, "so you're telling me you will not take our money and lose this business because you don't have a button for a veggie sandwich?.....You can't ring it up as something equal to, and make brand new patrons happy?" She said sorry, but no. We "locals" walked out, did not pay for our very expensive drinks (hope ya'll enjoyed throwing those out and wasting more money) and will never be back. Worst service EVER! I've told 15 people and I'm sure our friends are telling as many people and my husband will as well. Good luck keeping a business open once season is over and other locals leave very frustrated and unhappy. Bad way to run a business. One star is too many. Should be zero stars.

Uncaring controlling manager! Five of us went to eat at a safer outdoor environment and had driven 40 minutes to get there. Server came up without mask. We asked if she would wear one and she readily agreed and came back wearing one. A few minutes later the manager arrives at our table without a mask standing close to us saying they wont wear masks as its their constutional right not to. He informed us our server would not be allowed to wear one. So even though she wanted to he took her freedom away of choosing to wear one! She was very apologetic and I felt sorry for her having to work for such a controlling uncaring j**** Needless to say we left without eating drove to downtown Ft Myers where there was a number of great restaurants with outdoor seating with the entire staff masked. Will never return to this place again!

The waitress was happy to wear a mask but the manager made her take it off. We had somebody in our group that was immune-compromised. The poor waitress apologized profusely but the manager was just an a hole.

The food and service here are wonderful as I recall pre covid. The mussels are to die for, but I didn't take that literally. The server was not wearing a mask and indicated that was company policy. We left. The other restaurants in marinatown had masked servers. Hoping that day was a fluke,called regarding the mask and was told no,they don't mask. I'll go back when it's safe and hope their staff and customers stay healthy.
