The owners will greet you with a smile and delicious food every time you go in here. If it’s on their menu just trust that’s it good. This is my favorite spot around for lunch around Englewood.”

“Great meal from start to finish! Our waitress, Marina, was very attentive and pleasant. Grilled Cesar salad was fresh and crisp and had just enough char for taste.

“Outside tables in back of gas station/deli window but damn this is best Cuban sandwich I have ever had and can’t stop eating it. It’s loaded with a mild dill pickle that adds to the texture of the cuban seasoned meat. This is crack for lovers of Cuban food and who would have thought after visiting the store many times and never noticing until local referred me.”

“Fantastic Gulf of America views, great food, super service, great array of frozen drinks! Nice way to eat and spend a leisurely afternoon!!”

“Adriella is so sweet, informative, kind, funny and a great employee all around. She explained the different options, products and helped in every way. The ice cream, cotton candy and snow cones were great. We visited both days of our vacation in May. Very cute and clean place!! Highly recommended!! We returned to Florida a month later and visited this place 4 of our 5 days in town! There’s so much offered here! Waffle cones, waffle bowls, homemade snow cones, sundaes, cheesecake, shakes, cotton candy, banana splits, floats…. I’ve never seen a “snack” shop offer so much!! Cute atmosphere, great prices, amazing service!!!”

“Absolutely outstanding dinning experience the Gyro platter was the best flavor structured food in a long time. Great work from Paul and his team. Great to watch them hustle.”

“Sharky’s (and Fins) was the perfect surprise after a long drive and a Venice Beach sunset. The hostess recommended Fins, and it couldn’t have been better. We started with chilled lobster claws and Oyster Rockefeller — both incredible. My friend, who thought she didn’t like oysters, called them the most delicious thing she’s ever eaten. We shared a petite filet cooked medium rare to perfection, paired with a glass of Pinot Noir that felt magical. The service was seamless, with both servers providing warmth, professionalism, and great energy. Combined with the amazing food, relaxed atmosphere, and a breathtaking view of the sunset over the beach, this experience completely exceeded expectations. I can’t wait to come back.”

“Ashly or i think that was her name was a great server”

“We’ve been getting our Cuban coffee, empanadas and Cuban sandwiches. Do not miss an opportunity to meet this delightful family! Charleen treats you as though you are a guest in her kitchen. A unique and incredible experience. Great sandwiches to grab at Osprey Marina if you are going boating in your own vessel or hire a charter! No hurricane damage…she’s open for business!”

“My family and I come here almost every week for wings and always enjoy the atmosphere. This time though Sierra went above and beyond and not only took care of us at our table but also ensured that we got our credit card that I forgot and she made sure we got got it.”

“Has to be one of the best French cafe on West Coast of Florida! Simple and polite service !! And the in house made baked goods are perfect, along with the other menus of the day . highly recommend 10/10 !”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Backporch Brewing is hands down one of the best spots around! The staff and owners are incredibly attentive and genuinely care about your experience. Brewer Anthony is always pushing the envelope with creative and delicious new beers—there’s always something fresh and exciting on tap. The atmosphere is fun, laid-back, and perfect for hanging out with friends. They occasionally feature live music, which really adds to the vibe, and the large TVs are always showing great sporting events, making it a go-to place for game day. Whether you're a craft beer lover or just looking for a great local hangout, Backporch Brewing never disappoints! Highly recommend! 🍻”
