New American Restaurants near Sanibel, FL

“Everything was great!!! Food and service awesome!!“

“The food is amazing and you can tell everything is made with fresh, quality ingredients. We tried the Mermaid, Slawpy Hog, & Big Tex with the Mediterranean orzo salad and watermelon cucumber salad. Everything was delicious and the service was even better-so friendly!! I highly recommend you check them out.“

“Wow! Had never been until last night, although we frequently visit Sanibel. Can’t say enough about the quality of the food. My new all time favorite. A salad with tomatoes, watermelon, mozzarella, roasted pumpkin seed and a great dressing. Smoked tenderloin was a unique and fantastic dish.“

“Very very nice. Fine dining. Most certainly will return.“

“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.????“

“The restaurant has a great water view. We were there for Mother’s Day and they had a buffet brunch. The food and service were both good. We’ll definitely be back for their regular dinner menu.“

“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!“

“Everything tasted fresh and delicious, service was also excellent!“

“Ok. If I were driving by, which I was would have totally wrote this place off. My brother told me about it and I stopped in when I was next in town. Great atmosphere, great staff, and an owner who really cares about quality of food and service. Prices more than reasonable with healthy serving (Mahi Mahi fish sticks) and live music and plenty of sports.

Great mix of locals and tourists. Nothing fancy but great place to chill and unwind and enjoy great food, atmosphere, and drinks.

Kudos to the owners. Way to build a great welcoming bar and grill.“

“Very good food and great service. The lounge singer was extremely loud and not that good. Disappointing.“

“Great spot for amazing food and music! We love that they support live music, always a fun time!“

“We tried it for the first time last week and everything was great! The food was fresh and flavorful, and the service was spot-on!“

“Our waitress, Celina, was absolutely exceptional!!! Super friendly and so very kind! We ate there on a Friday and went back a week later and she remembered our names and greeted us by name, as soon as she saw us!!“

“Waitress was friendly“

“Great customer service!! Friendly staff, drinks are made quick...it's also a Monday evening and there aren't many people at the pool. Food was fast and delicious! The chicken nachos were great and the cheese never ran out. The fish street tacos could've used some zip and there was no additional sauce to help out. Will definitely stop back throughout the week!“

“Another one of those little Gems. Found it this week. Needed a nice place for our 4th Anniversary Dinner:
Called and made a reservation[Recommended] and we arrived at 17:30.was greeted and served Bread. The bread alone was exceptional.
I ordered the Rack of Lamb, my wife had the Pork Chop.
I must say, outside my own Kitchen, this was “The Best” Lamb I have ever had! Succulent, Tender, and cooked perfectly. The Pork Chop was also very good, probably the Tenderest I’ve ever tasted.
The servers here are what you would expect at a Four Star Restaurant.

Please give these people your business.“

“Honestly this place is amazing I loved working here and having fun with my family members and I can’t wait to come back to work“

“Bloody Mary was awesome. Prime Rib Sandwich was on point! Great place!“

“Great Service, Great Prices and very convenient.“

“The most amazing comedy experience of my lifetime! And I’m old!!“

“This was a great surprise. We didn’t realize it was a senior community but open to the public. My husband wanted breakfast and I wanted a good burger. We were both pleased as our food was cooked to perfection. We were warmly greeted and the place was spotless. Everyone was so nice and friendly as it was obvious we weren’t old enough to live there. They offer a great variety of options including ice cream.“

“We were greeted by Diva in the gift shop, then our hostess who gave us a beautiful water view. Our server was Erica, and her name tag said she was originally from Port Huron, MI which immediately set the positive mood since three of our party of four had Michigan ties. One of our party just casually mentioned we were celebrating when asked what brought us to Rumrunners. \n\nErica did an awesome job of explaining the special catch of the day as well as describing other dishes which she had sampled during her three months of working at Rumrunners. All were as she described and all were delicious. Some of us ordered dessert and then were pleasantly surprised when Erica also brought a wonderful piece of chocolate cake (complimentary of course) to celebrate our special occasions which she had remembered hearing about. All in all she made it a wonderful evening. \n\nThen as we headed out, my husband wanted to look at the Rumrunners logo shirts and we were re-greeted by Diva at the gift shop. What a fun spirit with her British accent, her perseverance in finding just the right shirt, and sealing the deal with a free coozie AND a couple hilarious jokes 😄. We smiled all the way to our car and these two employees made our evening very special. Thank you both.“

“Last night, we ended up getting stuck in the storm coming back from the Sanibel causeway. Seeking shelter, we decided to dock next to this place. Soaking wet, asked if we could sit outside and order. I believe it was Sydney that was our waitress. (Had an English accent if that helps) Service was absolutely amazing. All of the food (especially the buffalo chicken flatbread) was amazing! Thanks again to Sydney for the hospitality. She even brought us towels 🤣😂😂“

“Great food there especially there is Travia game on and you can't beat that!! Right!?!“

“We've been going to Fathoms for years, the food, service and atmosphere are consistently superior. They offer food and drink specials, have live entertainment several nights a week, and best of all welcome our dog! You can bring your own chairs, too.“

“Another great taco just can't beat them thank you!!!“
