“FINALLY FOUND PROPPER COLLARD GREENS ?!!! I'm guessing that, for the most part, that this is a scratch kitchen. We did the 3 meat and shared. Ribs, pulled pork and brisket. All were amazing!!! Their sauces were excellent as well and if you like greens ?..... get them, I only wish it was a larger portion.. Their home made potato chips are legit.Right on the Myakka river had a fella on the sandbar getting some sun.Another hidden gem in SW Florida.Not %100 if its true but looked up Snook Haven after we left and it could possibly be where they filmed the old (1938) Tarzan movies.Great experience...... definitely going back. Ty Sharon (our server) for a great time.“

“We're at Royal Coachman RV Resort and we like to support the food trucks that come here, and tonight (Feb 21st) was the Maine Line's turn. We were not disappointed, not at all. We had the 16 oz serving of Clam Chowdah and enjoyed it. We know our chowders and, while this had its own characteristics, it was still excellent in flavour. Our only criticism was that it had a lot of potatoes versus clams, but the flavour was still there.Our next dishes were Mom's Lobster Roll. The amount of lobster was generous (the menu says 4 oz) and it was claw meat. We loved it. The mayo was sort of dabbed on top. One part of me says I would have preferred the lobster meat to be chopped up and mixed with the mayo - even if it loses something in its presentation. The other part of me says I had it as it was served and I really enjoyed it, so leave it alone.Small oversight. My lobster roll was missing its coleslaw, an oversight that can happen to anyone at any time. On the other hand, my wife's roll included the coleslaw, which she enjoyed. However, the serving was puny. Our suggestion, do away with the potato chips and increase the amount of coleslaw to 6-8 oz.You make the coleslaw whereas you buy the chips. Such a change would be better for you.All told - 10/10 stars!“

“This was one of our best dining experiences in years! The entire experience was outstanding. The entire wait staff was friendly and attentive, but not overbearing. The food was served timely, but we never felt rushed. We had one of their March Special Appetizers; Clams & Chorizo - hands down the BEST appetizer that we've ever had. The meals were also awesome. Their Limoncello cake was one of the best I've ever had. I considered the prices fair; especially in consideration of the quality of the food and preparation and delivery. This was the 1st restaurant since before COVID that actually boxed your leftovers instead of handing you the box to do it yourself.“

Oh my it was so good that I am still thinking about it this morning! The French fries were also very good & the homemade chips were crispy & fresh! Michael was an excellent waiter, attentive but let us girls enjoy our chatter! Both the owners were engaging with customers which is a rarety these days! Don’t pass on this little gem while in Venice! ( Dessert were the chocolate martinis!)“

“I was on my way to another restaurant, when I spotted this Pineapple Tequila Restaurant. I have heard great things about the food, decor, atmosphere and service. I went on Valentines Day. What a fantastic vibe. I sat at the bar at people watched throughout the restaurant. The bartenders were fabulous. I went with a margaritas and steak fajitas. A+ on everything. The supply chips + salsa then the entrée came with beans, rice, sourcream, salsa. I took a huge amount of food, but ate a lot as well. I highly recommend. You will want to take pictures of the design of the exterior.“

“Large fun bar with pub food and sit down dining. We ate at the bar, which is covered but partially outdoors. My wife had the loaded hot dog which is quite a meal. My Mahi sandwich was very good.All in all this is better than average pub food with good service and a friendly atmosphere.Downside on the ambiance is that you're either looking at a parking lot or a crowded boat yard. No water views.“

“Great little spot that I think is hidden back in the corner of the plaza by the Goodwill store. They have the best fresh gulf oysters in all of Venice. We have only tried the seafood, but it is super fresh at a reasonable price. They have live music and the most wonderful staff. Inside and outside dining and a jazz brunch on Sunday's. Give them a try - ask for Lexi :)“

“Went out for an early meal at the Bonefish Grill in South Venice. We ordered from the Social Hour menu and had the mussels in a delicious sauce along with an order of calamari. The accompanying bread and olive oil, but they gave me what I wanted, some butter! My wife and I had a great time at the bar with the bar staff, Jennifer, Nick and Corey. Great personalities on all of them. They cater to everyone’s needs and have a quick wit that adds to the bar experience. Management, in the name of Michele stopped by to ask how everything was and we responded with a single word, “Excellent!”When in Venice, be sure to stop by for a pleasant afternoon. We will definitely be back, so you may see us at the bar.Parking: No problem parking.“
