First visit to this jewel of an authentic Florida restaurant Waitress Vikki was courteous helpful and efficient Fried shrimp, fries and onion rings were outstanding! read more

Got a grouper Reuben plus fries ($3 extra). Size of fish was small and had an off taste, was real fishy. I would have sent it back, and I should have. Anyway, I told the waitress the fish was bad but I intended to pay as usual. Instead of saying something appropriate like "sorry, I'll tell the chef" she got an attitude- a nasty one. Didn't get the name, but a kinda tall older lady. Switch out waitresses if she comes to your table. read more

We went there specifically for the taco salad special. It was delicious and our server was great. We had just finished paying our bill when I got a FaceTime call from my granddaughter as she saw we were eating there and she loved the taco salad too. All of a sudden a lady that was behind the bar came over and told me to turn off my FaceTime call. I actually had the volume turned to half way that lasted under four minutes. I'm not sure if she was the owner, manager and bartender but hello, we were in a bar. We had been watching tennis on the tv, good thing we didn't yell at any great plays. If we ever go back, we will try to remember to be very quiet. Oh and by the way, before our food came we got to hear a guy at the bar take a work call for about 15 minutes. He was talking very loud. It was somewhat entertaining lol. If you go there be sure to keep it quiet! read more

Alice Sweetwater's Bar & Grille - American Near Me - Naples, Florida

My parents suggested this place for dinner while we were in town visiting. We had a bit of a wait, about 20 minutes for first available seating. They have an outdoor seating area that seemed very popular, but inside was fine for us. Our server was kind and patient as we reviewed the menu. It's a large menu with a Florida dive bar feel with plenty of seafood options. We started with a full basket of onion rings - these were really good! Super crispy and hot. The breading wasn't a beer batter, it was more like a cornmeal texture that I really liked. The "full" basket wasn't a very large portion, but enough for each of us to have 2-3. I got the pan seared snapper, which was good - it needed more salt, but the fish was cooked well. The fruit salsa was sweeter than I wanted for a savory dish, but I just ate it separately and it was fine that way. I really liked the risotto that came with the fish - it was creamy and cooked well. The side Caesar salad I got with my entree was typical, but fresh. Nate got the lobster BLT which was messy and kind of hard to eat, but yummy and something fun that we can't get back home. The pineapple tartar sauce was unique and interesting - I actually really liked it. I'd come back to this spot as there were many items on the menu that sounded good! read more

Ambiance: loud and dark. Yes it was a Saturday night so loud is understandable. But you would think that when they did their recent " redo" they would have added more lighting. Service: can't say enough good things about Megan . She was BEYOND attentive, polite, professional and wanted so much for our experience to be a good one. So 5 stars for Megan. Food: Muscles...small, dry, tasteless. Wondered if they were pre-frozen. Many with cracked shells and no muscle inside. Mushroom caps.... Honestly they were at most 2" in size. Stuffing was unremarkable. Prime rib: medium was more like med-rare. But okay with that. It couldn't be cut with the serrated knife provided. Instead of the usual soft texture of Prime., it was tough/chewy. The aus jus tasted awful. More water than beef in flavor. And the water tasted dirty!! Steak and shrimp: I've NEVER seen a steak like that. It had absolutely perfect grill marks with not one bit of ' grill residue" which made us wonder if it had been Sous-vide(d) . It was shiny as though defrosted and microwaved. It was tough and tasteless. On our first visit, we thought food was mediocre but figured we'd try again. For us there will be no tries. read more

On vacation and was ready to try some new things like.... Alligator! Yes! Alligator! Long story short, I went to Florida years ago like 20 years ago. Don't do the math, I am old, I know. Anyway, I had Alligator Nuggets for the first time. So now, I have 2 kids and I told them about Alligator Nuggets and we planned a trip to Florida and we all agreed to try new things and on our list we out Alligator Nuggets. So we find Alice Sweetwater's and ordered use some Gator. Well, fantastic! I loved them, the kids loved them, the whole table did! So I recommend you order yourself some too. The place was packed but I feel that is Florida's MO. Beach, Sun, Drinks, People, it's all rolled into one. And speaking of, the drinks at this place are great! Everything was stellar and maybe it was my Vacation 'No Worries' type of mindset but I loved this place. I was with good people, sipping good drinks, eating good food. Honestly, ya can't beat that. read more

I would come here for the appetizers alone! The creamy crab & shrimp wontons with eel sauce and spicy mayo are hands down one of the best appetizers I have ever tried. My kiddos wanted to cancel his meal and put in for two more plates of these. The Buffalo shrimp was plump and juicy. The perfect amount of heat and minimal breading. Making them light, not heavy like some fried foods. The special was the prime rib, it was cooked perfectly but needed some more flavor. The same to goes for the sirloin steak. Amazing cook and char, but lacked seasoning. Our server was very attentive and the wait time at the peak of dinner was not even 5 minutes. read more

Drinks were outstanding. We didn't try the food but love the ambiance. Service was perfect and welcoming.

Great consistency - you can always count on a great meal here. Excellent service to shout out to Courtney from MA for excellent service.

The place is nice the food was like out of a box. Good place to have a drink. Needs to have better shrimp and fish we are in Florida. read more

Crab/Shrimp wonton appetizer is to die for, the best. Service always excellent No Happy Hour to my knowledge read more

Server was nice very loud atmosphere I ordered the fried clams and found them a little greasy

I loved Alice Sweetwater's Bar & Grill until the outside Guitar player made a derogatory remark. Very unprofessional and unkind. I was really upset. Will not return. read more

Everything about this place reminds me of a beachside bungalow in the keys. The food and the drinks are fabulous and the prices are very reasonable for what you get. You won't be disappointed. read more

This is a very cool little place. Very Florida and relax. Parking is just a little tight unless you have a really small car but access is easy. The service was great and the food was delicious. Very unique atmosphere with an old style bar with a antique cash register that must be over hundred years old very neat place to visit. read more

Alice Sweetwater's Bar & Grille - A lot of different and interesting things hanging on the wall - American Near Me - Naples, Florida

Food was average. Nothing there to bring me back. Onion rings too much breading. Overcooked.

I came with the kids for a late lunch and while service was fine and presentation okay, the food was tasteless and not fresh.

I was here during my work assignment. During my visit to the area, I decided to visit this place that was in my bookmarks for sometime. The restaurant is cute. A lot of customers. I got the grilled shrimp crabmeat sandwich. It sound very good in the menu. However, what I got is very tiny size broil shrimp with imitation crab meat. Shrimp not even grilled. Kind of misleading in the menu. The sandwich is ok but experience is just ok. Although I did not got to try their big item. But the food that I have is not up to the standards. read more

Best fried shrimp we ever had (except for last year when we ate here, lol) service was very good and knowledgeable. Food came out fast. Tried the lobster bisque, creamy but light. Nice flavor. Also tried the feature drink the drunk ghost. Very good, not too sweet! Will try again. read more

found a hidden gem in Naples. The happy hour is buzzing and the apps are off the chart. Great selection of beers and excellent service.

Jessica is a great server. She made our time here fantastic. She had great recommendations and we loved it all. We got there around 12:30 on a Wednesday and it wasn't crazy packed but it was a decent sized crowd. A good sign!!! They didn't have seating for our party of 5, so the hostess split us into 3/2 at two tables side by side. The menu was extensive and had something for everyone. We ordered: fish tacos with grouper, spicy wings, a Reuben, crab cake sandwich, and the pork tenderloin sandwich. A couple of the raspberry lemonade cocktails were tried, and the custard key lime pie to go! All were amazing. Zero complaints. Except maybe one: the sandwiches didn't come with fries. Those cost extra. Other than that, all good. We thought the menu was impressive and we had a hard time choosing. We would definitely come back and try other things. read more

First time at Alice Sweetwaters to celebrate my 70th Birthday. Wanted it to be special waitress had a group of 7 next to us took our order served our food and never checked on us . Our food was mediocre at best. My husband wanted prime rib they ran out at 6PM. Told waitress it was my Birthday but nothing not even a Have a good Birthday. We won't be back read more

The food and service both were absolutely awesome!!! Would give more stars if I could! My daughter and I went and will definitely be back!!! Couldn't have asked for better food or service! The clam chowder is delicious and the spicy crab balls were to die for. Also had the bite size burgers yum so good and crab wonton or Rangoon s can't remember exactly but loved it. Also had the Southwestern stuffed bbq shrimp and again it was delicious! Anyway it was all so good also our server which was the bartender too was so good, attentive and super sweet. Great experience and highly recommend this great place we stumbled up on. read more

Food was excellent! The Host seated us immediately, which almost never happens in this busy restaurant. The server was attentive. Only problem was how close the table are. It make it difficult not to hear every work your neighbor is saying and decibel level is very high. Also, moving into and out of our chairs was challenging. read more

This is a must visit every time we visit our daughter in Naples!!! The service is always friendly and attentive, and food never disappoints!! Favorites are the Buffalo shrimp, and pork tenderloin sandwich. Adorable little neighborhood restaurant with great bar and service. read more

We have passed this place so many times. Finally decided to pop in. The place is not big but nicely done. The menu offers a good variety. Ordered south Florida salad and Ruben sandwich. The food was good and service was great. Mia was our server and she was great. Thanks. read more

Great, fresh food with outstanding service. Fresh fish, perfectly cooked with Great drinks. read more

We finally stopped by for an early dinner. We had heard so much about this place. We sat outside, a mistake. Too many flies and cigarette smoke. I didn't think smoking was permitted in restaurants, even outdoors. Service was good, my steak sandwich was decent. Hubby had a pasta dish and didn't love it. We would not return. It seems to be a hang out for locals, we are locals but not our cup of tea. Try North Naples Country Club instead. read more

The wings were large and meaty. Loved the buffalo sauce that it came with. Mussels were decent and the bread that came with it was great for dipping in the white wine sauce. Stuffed mushroom had a generous amount of meat. I first walked inside to see the hostess regarding outdoor seating and got a quick glimpse of the inside which had a very cool vibe. I would come back for food and drinks again especially sitting outback. Service was quick and great. read more

Ordered the mahi mahi with risotto on Tuesday night. Absolutely disgusting! The fish was so stinky and the cook has no idea what real risotto is. Don't order that dish! read more

My husbands steak was tough and grizzly. Mine was way over cooked . We won't go back . Definitely not a steak house. The cook would not even take my husbands off. He tried eating half of it and cut all the fat off . I did eat mine. It was edible . Just tough and no flavor . Waitress was not very friendly either. Disappointed . Went there for lunch a couple months back and it was good. was so looking forward to a nice dinner . Oh well, you learn. read more

After years of supporting the restaurant, the wait staff decided to complain that our 7 year old grandson walked in with a fast food box. The hostess didn't have a problem with it and seated us. The attendant at the bar didn't have a problem with it and was serving the drinks. But because the server girls got together and complained, we were basically forced to make a decision. We made a great one and spent our money at a better dining establishment. Alice Sweetwater's will never get our business again! read more

It's kind of a local bar and restaurant. The service is prompt. The wait people are friendly and helpful. The lobster bisque is a must.... I usually get the fish and chips. Very good. This is kind of a cozy special place. read more

Great bartender Matt always happy & smiling & chats while he manages to mix cocktails or any combination of drink you want for the whole restaurant & take food orders at the bar. read more

Stopped here tonight with two friends. It was OK. Actually, my fresh fish tacos were really very good, lots of mahi-mahi and on mini flour tortillas instead of corn tortillas, which I was very happy about. I would have liked some more cheese on them, but then, I like cheese. My friend J had the mini seafood platter with cod, crabcakes and shrimp, and he was very disappointed with most of it. The crabcakes were hard and unappetizing, and he said that he didn't believe his fried cod was actually cod, as it was too soft. He also had a bowl of their chowder, which he did not want to finish. I ate some of his fries and they were actually excellent fries. My friend L had the fresh Icelandic cod, and she was very happy with it. It was served over lobster risotto and then finished with a lobster cream sauce, and she ate every bit of it. It seems like it took an extraordinarily long time to get our food after we placed our order, maybe 45 minutes. They were busy, but it just seemed like it was too long of a wait. Not the greatest experience overall, but also not the worst! read more

so, after coming here for about 15 years, and having a wonderful experience, we were met with the most rude hostess. she would not seat our party of 5 because 2 were not yet there. when they did get there, she would not seat us because the server was not ready. we stood in front our table, unable to sit until she told us we could. finally, after about 15 minutes we got the go ahead. server was good, shrimp app was ordered mild, but came extremely spicy. time to find a new favorite place. read more

We traveled from Miami to Naples to spend the day at the beach, and decided to try Alice Sweetwater's, thanks to the reviews. The place is cozy and clean, especial mention to the ladies restrooms, where they have a complementary exfoliating salts, that leaves your hands soft and smelling amazing!!! Now the food: we ordered a cup of lobster bisque (forgot to take a picture of it), two blackened grouper sandwich, gator nuggets, fried calamari and a side of French fries. Let me start with the Lobster bisque. It was soooo good!! OMG! The piece of bread plus the piece of fresh lobster inside were the icing of the cake. Creamy, delicious little cup of greatness! It's definitely a MUST if you come here! The gator nuggets and the fried calamari were fresh and fried to perfection, though the calamari were a little small but still good. The grouper sandwiches were nice not great. The piece of fish was big, well cooked, good seasoning, and fresh, although it was missing something. The other issue we had was the coleslaw that came with the sandwiches. Not good at all. Overall it was a nice meal. Last but not least, a special mention to our waiter Patrick. Excellent service throughout!! He was super nice and attentive. Thank you Patrick! read more

Stopped here for a leisurely lunch with my team. It was nice, great island style vibe. We ate on the back patio, nice variety of music, Bob Marley made the Playlist. They had the entire patio covered with fans and water misting the area. Service was good, the waitress made sure we didn't go dry with drinks and checked on very regularly. The food was very good and the portions had us full to the brim. Would definitely visit them again. read more
