Bonefish Grill is part of the Outback & Carrabba's parent company. Whenever I am traveling to a new area, I Google "Bonefish Grill", and compare reviews to other local "one off" seafood restaurants, and unless there is an outstanding choice, I enjoy the familiarity of the consistency of the housekeeping, the level of service, and the wide selection of food, making it easy to accommodate special needs of people in our party. It's the kind of place where dining solo at the bar is as enjoyable as being at a table with friends - except I just haven't met them yet. The company seems to hire people who enjoy their jobs, and work together well. Oh, and the prices are very reasonable, and they usually have some creative specials. read more

Definitely my favorite chain restaurant. The Lillys chicken with grilled chicken, fresh spinach and creamy goat cheese is amazing. The boom shrimp is legendary. The blackberry sangria is delicious. And the decor and ambiance is not dated and tired like alot of chain restaurants. And if you sign up for Dine Rewards you can use your points at Outback and Flemings too. And the service and food is always perfect. I love it. read more

$$$ This review is only for this location: 14261 S Tamiami Trail Ft. Myers, FL 33912 I'll get to the food shortly. Ambiance comes first. AMBIANCE: After about 20 years of dining here I am closing out any prior enthusiasm for dining out here. There is simply no fine dining anywhere in Lee county Florida. None. My wife and I have been here many times, at least twice for anniversary dinners. As in the past, the corporate restaurant decision-makers happily trade loyal customers for their persistence of playing wild electronic music (or something) to accompany one's dinner. Tonight we endured something like chain-gang music , "bang, bang" called "Me and Baby Brother" by War. Have you heard this? Have you left the room? This was followed by "Celestial" by Ed Sheeran. This collision of piano keys was enough to make Jerry Lee Lewis weep. I think the player of this one chose to play only black keys, nothing else. After this anniversary dinner music, why not "Feelin" by Anoraak. This one, complete with whistling fireworks and "whoops", none of which could be understood, maybe it wasn't lyrics, just whoops. Who finds that to be dinner music? FOOD: My wife is fond of the Bang Bang shrimp. She stated it was "fine" I wanted to try their "Bourbon-glazed 16 0z. Rib eye, wood grilled and finished with a chef-crafted sweet and spicy glaze. I ordered specifically "no more than medium rare. If it doesn't look great don't brings it." The rib eye was fully medium doneness, but the waiter brought it anyway. The glaze totally masked the meat so a bite might be 100% fat or some other percent of steak and fat. Not so pleasing. This was over $37.00, not bad at all if it had been as ordered. I'd gladly pay an additional $25.00 if I could have gotten a great steak. But it's not every week I can drive to Howard Street Tampa, to be treated well at Bern's Steakhouse, one of America's very best experiences. SUMMARY: There is no fine dining in Lee county. Not recommended. The pictures below if they are reproduced, are not from me. read more

I have been wanting to go here for years the ones located in Ohio and I finally got to go to one here in Florida with a beautiful place welcoming atmosphere beautiful linen tablecloth Bianca our server was fantastic. She was spot on with refills. Had a lovely smile and was all around. Excellent I truly enjoyed my house salad with Woodw grilled shrimp and the citrusherb vinaigrette. The homemade bread with pesto was absolutely delicious as well and you can't go wrong with their tea, refreshing and delicious. I shall return again, most likely at lunchtime to take advantage of their wonderful lunch specials. read more

What a nice respite from our day! In town due to my MIL being in skilled nursing care. After a long day of meetings and getting her settled we determined a cold adult beverage and something for the tastebuds was in order. Bonefish was just the place! Bang Bang shrimp NEVER disappoint and the martinis were spot on as well. We sat in the bar which is a nice mix of peaceful without feeling as if you are I a black hole. Our server was a delight! read more

I have been contemplating this review since our March 13 visit to the Fort Meyers bonefish Grill. I thought that we have dined at Bonefish in this location on numerous occasions over the last 10 years as well as locations in Hilton head, South Carolina and Maryland. What struck me was that we never had a bad experience at Bonefish and that is quite remarkable. What also struck me was that this restaurant accepts reservations, has a constantly changing seasonal and relevant menu, has by far the most competent and professional wait staff for any chain restaurant, food that is fresh and professionally prepared, well stocked bar with good happy hour options and lovely presentation. Top all of this off with prices that I would consider very fair and I end up with a five star review that I don't give out lightly. I think the thing that most impresses me is their consistency in providing a very pleasant dining experience. Our party of four had the grilled trout, bang, bang shrimp taco meal, fish tacos, and a fillet. I did not get a picture of the fillet, but it came out just the way it was ordered. I have been stuck ordering the trout on my last three visits and I can't seem to get away from it as it is so tasty and apparently flown in from somewhere out west. Our skilled waitress did suggest I try the pan Asian sauce, which I did and it was excellent. Guess there's no hiding the fact that we reallyenjoy bonefish and it's hard to believe they are partnered with Outback Steakhouse as that is the ugly duckling of the restaurant group in my opinion. As a sidenote, the bonefish Grill on Hilton head Island closed down during Covid and has never reopened. Hard to believe since it was always busy and appeared to be very well managed. The space they occupied is still empty? read more

Very authentic and delicious. Excellent wait staff. Good views of the waterwould definitely recommend if you are near fort meyers

Uber Eats delivery- tasty Brussel sprouts dish, and roasted potatoes. Looking forward to trying the dining in experience.

If you didn't know that Bonefish Grill is part of a chain, you'd think it's an upscale seafood restaurant standing on its own laurels. Apparently, its deliciousness is no secret, as the restaurant was packed by 6 p.m. Go ahead, make a reservation! They start you off with a crusty loaf of bread and tasty herbs & olive oil, which I used on more than the bread. There's an under-$60-for-two dinner which I would have jumped on, but T had his heart set on crabcake which wasn't included. The crabcake he said, was more crab than filling. Yay! And the steak on his combo was grilled medium rare, as requested. Double yay! My grilled trout was nicely seasoned, and equally good. A large piece, too! I like that one's choice of sides is more than the typical-for-Florida fries or slaw. I got broccoli, unfortunately somewhat overcooked, and yeah - I went with coleslaw which was light on mayo, and better than average. (Side salads, btw, are generously sized, and shareable if you're not famished.) The wine list -- important to me! -- is affordable. We got a $30 pinot noir with a twist-off top, that was great. Service is friendly and efficient. And don't forget ... 10% off for AARP members. read more

Kattlin G is the best waitperson we have experienced since dining at the Fort Myers Bonefish Grill. We were seated in the bar area at 5:55 PM; the place was packed.

Outstanding Service from Haley at Bonefish Grill! I just want to take a moment to recognize Haley, who went above and beyond what you'd expect from a server. She was incredibly attentive, kind, and full of positive energy, and she truly turned my entire day around just by being her authentic, caring self. It wasn't just great service it was a whole experience. In a world where service can feel rushed or transactional, Haley reminded me how powerful it is when someone genuinely loves what they do and puts heart into every interaction. Thank you, Haley, for being amazing. You made my day and I'll be back because of you! Bonefish Grill is blessed to have you! Very BLESSED THANK YOU SUPPER STAR read more

This evening at bonefish Grill we had the best waitress her name was Hailey S. She was prompt courteous and took our order soon after we arrived. The food this evening was excellent the ambience fantastic the bang bang shrimp was phenomenal. It was a great night. read more

My wife and I were at Bonefish tonight for my birthday. Our service was very poor. We sat at the bar and were ignored most of the time we were there. It was a struggle to get our drinks ordered. It was a struggle to get our food ordered. The woman bartender said would get a box for our leftovers and forgot about it. The male bartender, Jordan, asked if we wanted our check and we said yes. Then he forgot about bringing it. It was not busy--the two bartenders had plenty of time to flirt with each other and to talked with the four other couples at the bar. Jordan even told the couple next to us it was important for bartenders to not only serve drinks but to spend time with patrons and talk with them. Maybe because my wife and I were younger than the other couples they thought they'd invest time in the other people. I don't know. We like the food there and that is why we chose it for my birthday. What do they do special for someone's birthday? I have no idea because they barely even talked to us. It was very lousy service. We won't be returning. read more

Met with some friends at Ft Myers location. Haven't been here in a couple of years. We walked in just at as they opened. The Hostess greeted us with a big welcoming smile. The restaurant decor is quite nice. In my opinion, classy. The Bar area looks like a great Martini Bar, it just had that "pizzaz"!!! The Hostess escorted us to a booth and Kevin, our Server, showed up promptly to take our drink orders. Kevin was a nice guy and very attentive to our needs. Our group of four ordered..... the fish & chips, the Tuna Poke over rice, the Imperial stuffed fish of some sort.... forgot the actual name but our friend said it was delicious. I had the Beef & Ginger Potstickers . Fish & chips were a good size portion. The Tuna Poke had a great presentation but felt it lacked some seasoning and had too much rice. The Potstickers were a bit mushy & soggy but the bed of veggies were tasty. I wouldn't order them again. There are other items I'd go to next time. Overall..... it was ok. read more

1/25/2026 Excellent food, We had an excellent server. Ask for Hailey she was awesome. We started with the crispy calamari, it was so good & so was the dipping sauce they served it with. My hubby had the rainbow trout which he said was amazing. Nice size portions. I had the lobster tail with the lobster ravioli. We will be back, we liked the restaurant & all the help was very pleasant. The only drawback was how dark it was in the restaurant for our old ass eyes... read more

First I want to say I love this restaurant and I go there often. My food was delicious and service was good... I was a little put off when I received the bill and I knew I was being charged extra since I opted for the lobster bisque but she said I had one more side to order so I opted for a Caesar salad. At that point she should have told me that was also an up charge of $3.00 dollars for the salad, but she never said a word and when I got the bill I paid for both sides nearly 6.00, if she just made me be aware of that. I would've just gotten the lobster bisque soup which was delicious. I just think it's unfair that the staff needs to up charge their customers. I think it's terrible business in these hard times. FYI the salad was very small too. read more

Had a great experience with our server Becca tonight!! She was very helpful and patient with us. The fish tonight was wonderful and very large portions too. Becca always checked in us. You can tell she has been working her 20 years. We will be back and asking for her again read more

this location offers consistently fresh seafood, attentive service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The Bang Bang Shrimp is a must-try, and the seasonal specials never disappoint. Perfect for date nights or family dinners read more

Rachel is the best! Super attentive and very helpful. Drinks were great and the imperial dip is super yummy.

We held our son and future daughter-in-laws engagement dinner there last night and it was awesome. They accommodated 18 people, provided complimentary champagne and were very attentive. Rebecca and Bianca were great and the manager checked in on us a lot. They were able to split the bill how we wanted, allowed us to bring in a cake and never made us feel like we were lingering too long after the meal. Great food too! Everyone was happy with their meals! read more

If you're in a rush or on a time schedule, this is not the place to go. The server was friendly but service was very slow (We were there for an early dinner on a weeknight, so it wasn't overly crowded). I ordered the Dynamite Salmon which was pretty tasty and a large enough portion to take half home. Drinks were never refilled and no one checked on us through out the meal, so I wouldn't rush back to this location. One nice thing is they do offer outdoor seating, but it's directly facing the parking lot. read more

My once favorite restaurant is now a dismal version of itself, Bonefish Grill, Cape Coral. I ordered the ahi tuna appetizer & cesar salad. The tuna was dry & the lettuce was wilted, apparently the food was not only unappealing, but verging on unsafe. The tuna & salad were not even refrigerated properly. After notifying the restaurant I was told that nothing could be done. What does that even mean? I contacted Doordash & a credit was issued, certainly not acceptable for the potential for food poisoning. Gwen Zepeda read more

Had a good dinner experience at the Ft. Myers locations: nice atmosphere, good food and a good server, Jared. The manager also visited the table to make sure our expectations were met. We will continue to patronize.......... read more

Terrific food - Delaney was our server and had excellent table side service manner and wonderful conversationalist. We met the Manager and he was engaging. Fabulous dessert of coconut cake with Rum sauce and our entrees were Swordfish and grouper- Tried the cauliflower side dish as well! read more

Nice decor and the feel of a fancy place. We were dressed very casually tho and it was okay. I was impressed by our service, server's name escapes me. Sorry! We loved the fresh bread and oil to dip into. I was disappointed in my Fried Jumbo shrimp. A bit over cooked and a blah coating. My side of MacN Cheese rescued me tho. The bacon was a nice flavor and it was more like an Alfredo cheese sauce, very good. Jimmy loved his blackened salmon and pasta. He loved it. We will give it another try soon and try something else. read more

Awful food. Truly disappointed in the "brunch" The eggs Benedict were closed to hard boiled yolk. 3 of us sent back the Benedict for a second try. My yolk was a hard boiled ball of yolk....for the 2nd time. The whole egg from whites to inside was tough. They should take the Benedict off the menu or hire a chef that knows how to cook a true Benedict. As for brunch, one and done for 3 of us. read more

This location has been a staple in my area & for a choice for dinner many times many years and always a sure thing. Last night all that sadly changed, the quality of the food was just mediocre at best. The service was great & management was helpful & polite. I'm hoping this food issue is a one time only disappointment. read more

This is a real nice restaurant-we have always had a great meal, always had good service. Their martinis are delish and I especially enjoy the salmon dinners. read more

It's ok, just ok. Not bad, not good. Definitely not good enough to recommend to anyone. Went for a girls brunch, on a Sunday. Made a reservation which they honored perfectly. And it was nice to be able to make it online. The food was absolutely lacking in options, literally 4 plate options for brunch. That's it! I left paying $55 and a $10 tip. So $65 for eggs, very thin bacon, potatoes, and 2 mimosas (not champagne, but Prosecco). That was my bill. Alone. One person. Not doing that again. None of us were impressed. They used to offer bottomless, but not anymore. Do yourself the favor and pick somewhere, anywhere else for brunch. read more

This was the first Bonefish Grill I had ever been to and I've been to this location several times over the years. I always get their grouper when they have it. That is almost always available. Their strawberry shortcake is delicious. Highly recommended. read more

I have dined here a number of times through the years and have always been pleased, that is until my most recent dinner there with my family. While the service once we were seated was fine, the coordination and communication between the hosts was not. Took much longer to be seated outside than it should have because each host assumed the other had us. As for the food, none of the four of us were thrilled. I had crab cakes (very good) and a filet which was dry, over cooked (asked for medium rare) and generally tasteless. The bang bang shrimp also seemed to miss the mark compared to previous visits. Lastly the menu appears to have been slimmed down from previous years. I don't think the simpler menu is helping. I will note we were all happy with our drinks. Overall a very blah experience and I doubt any of us will be back any time soon. read more
