First of all I have been going to the Pelican Alley each season for the past 8 years…read more Have always loved their food, especially their world famous Sea Food Chowder. The best anywhere so I find it very hard to give this review but I have to say what I feel. We were there on Tuesday, 04/14/26, at 6:00pm with a group of 4. Two of us had their Mahi special and found it to be fantastic (I agree) and one had their fish and chips which were also great.. I had the Back Alley Bake Gouper and I have to say it was a disaster. First the grouper was so over cooked I could only eat a out half of the portion. The shrimp on top were cooked to the point that they were crunchy and the crab meat was actually cold. No idea how that did that. The asparagus was cooked to the point that is all shriveled up. The baked potato was really good. When I told my wife about my meal she said that I should have sent it back but since the rest of our party were already enjoying their meal they would have been done by the time I received my selection. I will go back because I love their chowder but I think I will stick to their fish and chips in the future. I don't know if the management ever reads their reviews, I hope so, and maybe they can watch how they make this dish.

We had a fantastic evening at Rosebud's! We started in the cozy Speakeasy bar, where the atmosphere…read morewas warm and inviting. The bartenders were incredibly friendly, and the 2-for-1 happy hour house drinks were perfect and under $10 each--a great way to begin the night. For dinner, I ordered Steak Diane, which was the evening's special, and it was absolutely to die for--perfectly prepared and full of flavor. My wife loved her Eggplant Parmesan and said it was one of the best she's had. Our server, Karen, struck the perfect balance of being attentive without ever being intrusive, making the entire dining experience relaxed and enjoyable. From the drinks and outstanding food to the excellent service, everything came together for a wonderful night. We can't wait to return!

To preface the restaurant was not busy. The service was disappointing. Drinks weren't refilled until asked later on in the service and the waitress was inattentive. As someone who has worked as a waitress for a while, I find this type of negligence a turn off when I am dining. The food was mid at best. We ordered the Crab Dip and the chips came out super stale.

The Rueben perfection, others had the variation of salads, Greek, Beet Carpaccio, Garden. Gyros's, with Chicken Sandwich with Boom Sauce, Philly Cheeese and so many more other delights! Our outstanding full attentive servers were Khaley and Miranda! Both were spot on! Drinks, Apps, Entree, special requests on the entree, nothing was an issue to accommodate our ladies. We were placed in their large private room and the set in a U SHAPE was very accommodating for all to be able to speak and hear each other. Artur, the staff made our special event a lunch a fun and outstanding time. We will definitely return in the future! If you haven't been, you are missing a taste of European cuisine.

Charlotte County Girlfriends Lunch at The Banyan House…read more Our lunch yesterday, Wednesday Aug.12, 26: at The Banyan House was truly special. This was our second time gathering there with our Charlotte County Girlfriends, and once again, it was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. We had the pleasure of celebrating one of our ladies' birthdays with a complete surprise. She doesn't often join us because she and her husband enjoy traveling both domestically and internationally, so having her with us made the occasion even more meaningful. We were delighted to surprise her with our group birthday song and a beautiful well-wishes card signed by everyone. It was a wonderful moment shared by all. A special thank-you goes to our servers, Jillian and Marley, who were exceptional throughout our entire luncheon. Their professionalism, attentiveness, and gracious service truly enhanced our experience. The Banyan House once again exceeded our expectations. The service, beverages, appetizers, entrées, and desserts were exceptional. Our ladies enjoyed an impressive variety of selections, including the Local Golden Beets Salad, Chicken Wedge, Grilled Salmon Caesar, Lobster Bisque, French Onion Soup, Chicken BLT, Blackened Grouper, Beef Short Ribs, and many other delicious choices. Each entrée offered several side selections, giving everyone plenty of options to enjoy. As I walked around our tables, I heard nothing but compliments about the food. There wasn't one unhappy lady! The quality, presentation, and variety made it easy for everyone to find something they truly enjoyed. And, of course, the best part of any Charlotte County Girlfriends gathering is the company. Looking around the room, there were smiles, laughter, wonderful conversations, and plenty of catching up among friends. Even as lunch came to an end, our ladies continued chatting as they prepared to leave. Our servers were practically zigzagging around the room as conversations continued from table to table! We were also very pleased to meet Stacy, the General Manager, who took the time to thank our group for choosing The Banyan House. She graciously welcomed us back for future lunches or dinners, and we certainly look forward to returning. Thank you, The Banyan House, Jillian, Marley, Stacy, and the entire team for making our luncheon such a memorable experience. And to all of our Charlotte County Girlfriends who joined us--thank you for making another gathering filled with friendship, laughter, great food, and wonderful memories. Enjoy the pictures from today! And if you visit The Banyan House, don't hesitate to mention that you read our Charlotte County Girlfriends review. Until our next gathering!

The crust was perfectly crisp yet soft inside, the sauce had just the right balance of tang and sweetness. The fresh mozzarella was thick and gooey and basil was perfect. While I've always associated Chef Rolf's with other types of cuisine, this pizza has definitely put it on my radar for a casual meal. Check out the photo. I don't know about the other things on their menu. It all looks good, but at this time I can highly recommend giving their pizza a try--you won't regret it. Salute!
