“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“

“Huge shoutout to the KIND and HONEST TEAM at Doc Fords in Sanibel! 🙌 We’ve been going there for many years and their food is always delicious-one of our favorite spots for a reason. We had dinner there Sunday and a couple of days later I realized my wallet was missing. I called in hoping for the best, and to my surprise (and relief!) they had it safe and sound- with EVERYTHING still inside! So very grateful for people who do the right thing. Thank you for turning a stressful situation into such a positive experience! 💙 Annette Nilio“

“Had a great experience at Ford Garage Cape Coral. Hadn't been there in awhile and with season behind us I decided to taken advantage and stopped in. We were greeted at the door and seated immediately, atmosphere casual and fun. The service was excellent. Our server, Layla, was friendly greeting us with a smile. She was sweet and made sure all our needs were met. I would highly recommend Ford's Garage.“

“This review is long overdue. • My friends put together a going away party for me at the Duffy's location on CC Pkwy on the evening of Friday January 28,2022. • I wanted to give a HUGE shout-out to our server, Britney B for single-handedly taking care of our food and beverage needs for three solid hours! She was extremely effecient, friendly, and professional. • As we all know with a group of this size, this can rarely be accomplished in an effortless manner as she demonstrated during that time! • Additionally, thank you to management for allowing us ALL to sit together by placing us is the front private space up front. We all appreciated your hospitality on short notice! • Again, thank you Britney B, management and staff for accommodating us and sending me off to AZ in style. • Much appreciated! • I highly recommend this establishment!“

“Our favorite did NOT disappoint! For the first time we skipped the oysters for the bacon wrapped shrimp- we ate it so fast I didn’t get a pic…. Delicious, great bacon and even better shrimp! Next up was Cajun shrimp scallop pasta! Oh man- best we have ever had. Smooth cajun cream sauce over ample grilled shrimp and scallops and linguine. Yum!! Had the drink of the day- blackberry mule- perfection. Thanks SOBs for another fabulous evening!!“

“Amazing little Italian restaurant! The food was fabulous! We were in a large group so we had a few appetizers, the calamari, stuffed mushrooms & fried ravioli were all so good! And the portions on the baked spaghetti could feed 3 people! But it was superb 😊 And our beautiful waitress Denise, was Super Fantastic! 10/10 Highly recommend enjoying an evening at this cute little place 😁🫶🏼“

“Food is homemade and delicious. Cheaper for me to feed the family then the supermarket A lifesaver close by. Thank you Sunflower Cafe see you again tonight for dinner“

“We recently moved right down the road from Marti’s and this has become our favorite breakfast place. I grew up going to Pete’s Time Out on Fort Myers Beach, went almost every weekend until we no longer could and they had the best breakfast. I am so happy we found Marti’s because it’s just as good, if not better!!! Everyone there is so friendly. Support your local business, it’s worth every penny 🥰“

“Wonderful, casual atmosphere. Great fresh dishes. wonderful wine selection.
Toscana sausage and penny was excellent generous portions. Appetizer in the bruschetta very good fresh best I’ve ever had. Dessert Tiramisu was soft and delicious. My only negative is that I waited too long to try this restaurant.“

“Great Service, drinks and seafood!“

“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!“

We said we had cash, they then said it could be a long wait before we would be served as kitchen also relied on the computer. We took our chances went in and waited, eventually had a great meal ! Perseverance is omnipotent , from a mixed race party.“

“Great food and atmosphere!“

“Nice place. Our waitress was very attentive, kept our ice tea full and remembered to keep plenty of Splena on the table. I ordered the Seafood Cobb Salad. I am a Cobb Salad fan and order one where ever I go. This one was huge and I mean a 12” plate piled on. All of the individual components were plentiful 5 grilled shrimp on top, tons of cherry tomatoes, a half a pig of bacon, bleu cheese, onions, and the rest were stacked high. Only thing that would have made it better would be chopped greens. I had to get a “kitty bag” for later. Desert was their Banana Bread Pudding with toasted bananas. Again huge could have shared it with 3. Wife ordered Crème Brûlée which she wouldn’t share. Only bump was wife’s entre, Dolphin fish came out topped with tomatoes which she is deathly allergic (not mentioned on the menu) but not to worry, they made her another lickety split. Two entrées, appetizer, ice tea, desert and nice tip came to just under $100 about average for a decent Cape Coral restaurant. Big smiles on this one.????“

“Food is always good and very reasonable prices too! I got something new this time. The chicken Philly roll. With extra cheese :)
I have tried their quesadilla - it’s very yummy and a good size. Their chicken tenders and fries are always good. I have also tried the bbq chicken wrap and it was yummy too! I would definitely recommend trying this place out. It’s one of my go to’s“

“Love what they're doing here. Feels just right. A little bit of old FMB. Beach, drinks, food truck, live music. Heaters on a chilly night. All great. Welcoming. Best place to just hang out. And dog friendly!“

“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!“

“I ordered Christmas dinner online a week before Christmas with a 23rd pick up. However when I went to pick it up they did not have my order. The manager Shane came and talked to me and he looked and could not find my order. So he took my order right there and filled it for me. I paid and he said if I got billed twice to come back and they would take care of it. They offered me something to drink while I waited. Shane and the staff were wonderful and helpful. When I got home I looked and I had not been billed twice. We have not eaten there before and we will be going to eat in. Thank you all for your help. Adding to my original post: Had their Christmas dinner for 4. It was Turkey which was so moist and tender. Loved the potato’s and the cranberry sauce was perfect. First time not cooking and it was so nice. Thank you for such good food.“

“Great food but most importantly, great people make this restaurznt the best of it's kind anywhere in SW Florida. Shrimp portions are generous and if you like real southern cooking. Their authentic gumbo and creole jambalaya will warm your heart. If you happen to want an even warmer heart, you can up the heat with the ghost pepper version. You will encounter some great cooks and some attentive servers who will make your visits habit-forming!“

“Great steak tacos! Great ceviche and great service! Will be back!“

“Amazing staff all of them are great!! Drinks are delicious and well priced! Always something fun happening and the vibe is always on point! Some of the best pizza and wings around, and the phillys are delicious as well! Def a fun place to go have some drinks and food. Nothing fancy at all but it’s 100% worth checking out!!“

“Excellent pizza and delivered hot at 9 pm on a Wednesday night thanks to Doordash. On our list to visit soon.“

“Great food and service. True little gem near the beach.“

“Great food, good bartenders, highly worthy of a return. These people were wise in firing Kitty Maldonado whom these days continues to ramble over and over like a broken record over other peoples' mistakes, including things that are years in the past and that everyone at all bars is tired of hearing about. Does she not realize how horribly annoying she is to everyone she serves and works for at every single bar, and yet she continues to repeatedly resurrect the same drama, over and over, like a broken record at every single bar she works at, which she has been doing since the Covid pandemic. And Kitty was fired from at least a dozen other bars for rambling over and over like a broken record over other peoples' mistakes. People are tired of hearing about the same mistakes of other people over and over again. Kitty's repeating broken record drama has ruined numerous potential celebrations of Joe Biden's victory and Donald Trump's defeat in the November 2020 election. Donald Trump was the very worst president in American history, many of us were about to celebrate Trump's defeat and multiple impeachments, and Kitty ruined our celebrations with her drama and rambling over and over like a broken record. And to make matters worse, she has a destructive sidekick, Joanna Teresa Unbehaun, adding to the drama. Joanna is in fact reported to have framed a number of students at a high school near Chicago for involvement in the 2001 attacks at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, as well as for a series of bomb threats that occurred in the Chicago metropolitan area during the fourth quarter of that year. Reportedly, Kitty Maldonado was actually supposed to have moved to Atlanta, Georgia or Los Angeles, California back in the fall of 2018. And truthfully, I think Kitty would do well in Los Angeles as I hear a close friend of hers, Deziree, that used to bartend in the South Cape, lives in Los Angeles and is last known bartending somewhere on Wilshire Blvd near Beverly Hills.“
