Best restaurant we've tried in Fort Myers so far!…read more AMBIANCE The vibe in here is great - fun lighting and decor, with plenty of seating and great AC. There are some patio seats outside as well. SERVICE The best part of our visit! Our server was awesome - giving us real-time feedback on what to order and what we should try. He gave us awesome recommendations that didn't lead us astray. He was attentive, friendly, and personable. Even though they were slammed and packed, he checked in on us often and food came out in a timely manner. DRINKS Delicious and great variety! My dad got a marg with tajin rim, my brother got a coconut mojito, and I got a fun frozen drink. All delish! They have aguas frescas, mocktails and more too. FOOD This brought me back to Puerto Rico! Such authentic and fun flavors here. We got: Sampler appetizer - highly recommend! Tons of food, great for sharing, and a great way to try things like fried plantains and mofongo balls. Concha meal with gandules side - unreal! I forgot how good concha can be. And our server recommended the gandules - Puerto Rican rice that is the national dish - and it was amazing. I wish we'd had room for dessert - it all looked amazing! We will be back for SURE.

We entered the establishment, we noticed a couple of people eating and the server was walking us to the table with the menus and I noticed she didn't grab the lunch menu, luckily I did grab it and took it to our table. We ordered two lunch specials both with arroz guandules, salad, I got fried chicken chunks, with tostones and my boyfriend got fried pork chunks with sweet plantains. The food arrived promptly. They served us large portions. I especially liked the rice and the fried chicken chunks. The tostones were a little on the hard side. My boyfriend was a little upset with the fried pork chunks. He said the meat was cold and hard. (Ouch) The restaurant was a little empty, but what you expect on a Monday afternoon. The restaurant seems like it could be a vibe on the weekends. I love Puerto Rican food and I see they offer an extensive menu and might give it another try if come through the area again one day.

I do not recommend these tacos to anyone. The meat was a little dry. The limes were tiny (tried to squeeze on the tacos). Onions and cilantro were pretty sparse. The worst part that the meat was really salty. I love salt, but this was too much. I really hate to say it because I live my tacos, but I won't be getting anything from here again.

It turns out that we were talking to John, the owner, and he gave some great recommendations for me (and did note where an ingredient could or could not be left out for me). We snacked on plantains with black bean dip and an incredible octopus salad while waiting for our dinner. I cannot say enough good things about the octopus salad - the chilled mild octopus was complimented by the briny olives, sweet onion slices and salty bites of potato. I prefer to eat smaller meals throughout the day so I just ordered the beef empanadas small plate for my dinner -- knowing I would also get a bite of my husband's dinner too. He ordered the snapper, which they ran out of and substituted branzino. Very good! The malanga chips were more like fries and were a great surprise - never had them before and we enjoyed them. The branzino was perfectly cooked and the rice was extremely flavorful. My only regret is that we were not in Naples longer to make a return visit to explore the menu further!

But, for the 4th and final time I have received the same inconsiderate service. The restaurant took my order, sends me a delivery update, and tells me for an hour that my order is arriving soon.

This is after 2 and half hours on waiting for an update. No my break is over, so thanks to giving these inconsiderate asshol s another chance I have to go on without lunch today.

I was actually on my way to another restaurant after driving from Ave Maria (which is about an hour away) but when I spotted Dru's, I had to stop. I'd been on the hunt for authentic doubles for a while, and they're not easy to find in Southwest Florida unless you know someone making them at home. From the moment I walked in, I had a great experience. The restaurant wasn't crowded, but was greeted friendly. When I ordered, they let me know it would take a few minutes because they fry the bara fresh to order. That alone was worth the wait. The doubles were outstanding. The bara was light, fresh, and perfectly cooked. The chickpeas were well seasoned , and the pepper sauce was on point. My original plan was to take them home, but that didn't happen. I couldn't wait...I dug in as soon as I got back to my car, and they didn't even make it to the gas station before they were gone. I already can't wait to come back and work my way through the rest of the menu.

In a strip mall, situated few doors by Uncle Rico's Pizzeria, there is a Dru's West Indian Roti…read moreShop. A quick look tells you this is more a take-out with 3 inside tables. Roti originated from Indian continent but also popular in West Indian like Guyana. This Roti Shop was in our minds for years. Finally, we walked in to try the West Indian Roti. My wife asks me, "You know the difference between Roti and Naan?". According to her, Roti is an unleavened flatbread with whole wheat flour sometime with oil or butter that cooked in a griddle or skillet whereas Naan is a leavened flatbread make with refined flour some time with milk and yogurt in a tandoor or clay oven." She went on and told me that Naan is thicker and softer. Roti is generally eaten with curries and dals. There are two rotis available here, paratha, a buttery flatbread or Dhal Puri, a flatbread filled with split peas and lentils. The menu is simple, you can use roti to wrap your choice of curried chicken, shrimp or goat, or use the roti to dip into your favorite curried items or curried items over rice with roti! We ordered a shrimp roti meal with Dhal Puri and a double plain roti wrap. The double plain roti is sweet and savory. The curried shrimp with peas, potatoes are well prepared and simmered with aroma. It hits the spot. We shared a pineapple soda. The ambiance here is simple. A small TV with a few pictures on the wall and the several Guyana flags. The tables are not shiny, but they are clean. It is homely and the food is good! Amazing discovery in Fort Myers! If you want to try West Indian Roti, this place is for you.
