    We visited this local Bistro for lunch and its a hidden gem. Casual and elegant with a very comfortable atmosphere. The owner George greeted us and served us with a friendly smile making us feel like old friends. The food is not fussy wonderfully fresh. We shared a Lobster Roll with a fresh small salad on the plate to start, it was delicious! I had the Turkey Lasagna with a delicate bechamel sauce and my husband had the burger with delightful thin fries he loved it! We will be making this spot a regular for lunch and dinner. Some of the best restaurants are hidden in your local plaza.

    The owner, George, was very sweet and caring and cooked all of our dishes himself, as his staff was away for Easter weekend.

    BEST BBQ IN SWFL!!!…read more The servers, Jess and Chris, were very attentive and made us feel special. We went for my dad's birthday, and they made us feel like we were the only table in the restaurant. glasses were never empty, dirty plates were picked up quickly. it was phenomenal. They even brought us beignets for a happy birthday treat! The restaurant was quiet. It is definitely a hidden gem as it is unassuming in the strip mall plaza with the drive thru jimmy johns. 10/10 food. Next time, we will have to try the kangaroo!

Ive gone in a number of times, obviously id prefer a 1 on 1 conversation with her, but when the bar is full if you want to talk to her, be prepared for a group therapy session. The ambiance does produce a soothing subdued feeling even without any booze in you. the bar is usually full during season, in the offseason i still would recommend having a Happy Hour which im a proponent and promoter of at every establishment. However i wanted to wait until i tried a food item on the menu before writing a biased favourable review for her, as tantalizing the kangaroo looked on the dinner menu, i decided to go for Tom's Turkey sandwich at lunch for $23. I am a sandwich person, i do make them everyday, going in on i thought it would be a typical elongated food chain sandwich, and for the price would be a second serving the following day. the menu said it came with a side but looking at the sides i assumed the price would be extra, i wanted the fries after seeing them but was out of a price range for me to add on. I elected to go with cole slaw which was subpar, it would be better if it was gotten from Publix and scooping it into the ramekin. I didnt like the Tom's Turkey sandwich after getting through it while it deconstructed, i didnt know what i was eating to tell you the truth with an extra spice to it.

    Atmosphere - lively and fun…read more Service - Our server was friendly and reasonably attentive. Food - Very Good. I was in the mood for a cheese burger, so I ordered the Super Smashed Burger with chips. The burger was excellent. It was served hot, at the correct temperature and it was juicy. The bun was fresh and held up to the juices. Overall - with prices that are very reasonable (especially considering the portion size) and service is good, this is a restaurant well worth checking out.

There are numerous tables and booths, along with big screen TV's. The table tops have a neat design,and the chairs are comfortable. It was a "seat yourself" at the time we were there and we had plenty of seat choices. Our server quickly took our drink order and before the drinks arrived they wanted to take our food order. I don't like being rushed, so we asked to have some time to peruse the menu. The menu has lots of appetizers, a few salads, entrees, sandwiches and specialties as well as desserts, I settled on the baked penne. Food arrived timely and looked great. For me, the baked penne was too cheesy with not enough sauce. I was disappointed since every description of their sauce made it sound so good, so I feel like I missed out. I would return and try something else.

The first time I had blackened shrimp BLT and she recommended I get it as a wrap so the shrimp didn't fall out everywhere and it was the BEST decision! Haha and was delicious! This time we just had meatballs and cheesy garlic bread for an app and it was yummy too! My husband said even better than he expected. Love that it's kinda hidden, and unsuspecting from the parking lot... so perfect name! Haha Love! And will be back! Great waterside view, great kept secret!

    My husband and I are full time residents of Marco Island. Since moving here almost a year ago,…read morewe've been having fun trying all of the amazing restaurants in the area. Today, we attempted to have lunch at The Speakeasy. We've heard mixed reviews from other residents. However, we like to form our own opinions so we thought we'd give it a try. What a mistake. Walking into the bar/restaurant, a handwritten sign told us to seat ourselves. So, walking towards their outside area, we were hit by a wall of cigarette smoke. No biggie. It's outdoors. Not ideal but whatever. It IS mostly a bar. So, we picked a table. On our way to sit down, a server walking past mumbled a hello and kept walking. So, we said hi and sat at a table. The server then stood several feet away and just stared at us. Literally, did not move. Not even to take care of other tables, which we noticed after a time, were just sitting there not receiving service as well. So, we waited. ...and waited. 10 minutes later, and the server never moved. Ultimately, we decided to leave. As my husband and I stood up and began walking out, the server reached behind her and grabbed two menus, watching us the entire time. She then said, "Sorry folks. Have a great day." Wow. Off season, places like this depend on locals to keep their businesses afloat. With the kind of attitude and service we received, we won't be back.

There are arcade games for the kids, a bar for adults, and the bar serves food for everyone. The kid and I went our first night at JW and she loved it, especially since she won a prize at one of the games. I sat at the bar and enjoyed a couple of IPAs, and there are numerous beers on tap to choose from. After playing a while, the kid got a cheese pizza ($16). It was pretty ordinary and actually not that good, but she's a kid whose palate is not quite discerning yet. I had the chicken tenders ($18) and they were above average. The tenders were not dried out from overcooking. The batter was not greasy. There was a honey/chili dipping sauce that I really liked, plus I got some honey mustard, It came a piece of cheesy corn bread that was not bad at all. The Cole slaw was interesting with fennel slices. You don't see that very often. Overall, it was a good meal. We are here for several days so I have a feeling we will be back for more games and beers.

It also offered many TVs in the bar area to watch some sports. And for you beer drinkers, there were several taps available to please the masses. Of course, the service at the JW is always top notch. And it was so here when we visited. Unfortunately, the food fell a little short and hence my rating. We tried the wings, brisket sandwich, and fries. All were fine, but not to the standard I expected from a JW property. So, if you are looking for some entertainment, go for it! But keep your expectations in check regarding the food.
