Not bad at all since we brought home half the pizza as leftovers. OMG, I think it is one of THE BEST pizzas I've ever eaten! I love the thin crust, lots of cheese & meat. Normally I have to ask for ranch dressing to "cover" the pizza flavors I don't care for but not this pizza! I ate it as prepared & it was SOOOO DELICIOUS! The restaurant was immaculately clean. Plenty of seating. Nice music ambience. There's also a bar with TVs. And my husband said the men's bathroom was spotless. The waitress (owner?) was extremely friendly & very accommodating. We will definitely return.

Very interesting. I wish I had gotten our server's name, but she was absolutely wonderful. She was so kind and understanding, and communicative when our food wasn't coming out as quickly as it probably should have. Our waitress felt like a Southern grandma who cared about us. She really made the whole evening worthwhile. As a vegan, I had wished they offered more options, but I settled on ordering a pizza with veggies and no cheese. I liked the crust which was thin and crispy. There were a good amount of vegetables too. I ended up adding a little salt and red pepper flakes to make it more flavorful. Oh, and I ordered a soda which came in a very large cup! No need for a refill.

The atmosphere was so fantastic and we loved looking at all the pics. Our waitress was the absolute best. We think her name was Kelly. We got calamari and Shiahito peppers. They were so amazing. We got grouper tacos, classic hamburger, fried grouper and shrimp, Parmesan oysters and chicken wings. We all gave five starts reviews! We highly recommend this restaurant to everyone!

There's numerous tv screens to watch all the games - some booths even have their own screen. Aside from the sports decor, The Sanibel Grill has a very similar menu to Timbers Restaurant next door - I'm pretty sure the two are one and the same and share the same kitchen. I ordered the Grouper Fish tacos. You can get them blackened, fried, or grilled. I opted for fried. Note that the Sanibel Grill is known for their signature cornflake crunchy batter - but the grouper fish tacos are the lightly breaded bites and not cooked in their signature batter. The grouper was nicely cooked - tender and delicate bites. They used corn tortillas, which didn't fall to pieces while eating, but they were pretty flimsy (it was easy for a grouper bite to roll out). The tacos are served with rice pilaf topped with black beans which was on the bland side (nothing to write home about). I would've liked a hit of lime to add to my tacos, but the waitress never came back to check on us. Service is minimal. This is bar service all around. My friend ordered the combo basket (Grouper and fried shrimp) and comes with a side of fries and cole slaw. You can hear the crunch - I can see why it's their signature. My sister ordered the shrimp scampi with rice pilaf (she was hoping for pasta but that was not a side option - it's either rice pilaf or potatoes - smashed, French fried, or sweet potato fries). It also came with fresh green beans. The shrimp were nicely cooked and super buttery. She also ordered the crab bisque which was creamy and had good crab flavor, but I wouldn't say it was overloaded with crab meat. We finished the meal with a slice of Florida's signature key lime pie. The slice was small but had giant key lime flavor. It was very sweet but this was my favorite key lime pie slice from our whole trip. The Sanibel Grill gave us average food and average service. No military discount here.

But it's…read morebeen 3 yrs since our last trip to Sanibel and since Dante's is right on the grounds of the Sanibel Inn where we're staying, we figured it deserved another visit. After spending most of the morning and part of the afternoon on the beach, hubs was craving pizza. Me? I had my doubts. Outside of NYC, I wasn't exactly convinced Sanibel was about to serve up a killer pie. I was wrong. Because for these parts, it's tasty alright. Dante's has a unique layout with a winding staircase leading up to a circular dining area. We started with the jumbo shrimp appetizer, doused in this creamy, spicy, garlicky, Parmesany-packed sauce that was totally outstanding. Then we each ordered our own 10" individual pie. Hubs went with the pepperoni, I chose the white pizza with mushrooms, minus the prosciutto. He loved his and I enjoyed mine too- but it needed more mushrooms. As for the pizza, the base is kinda thin but not paper-thin, the crust has a light and airy rise with a crisp feel- but not like a cracker. Shout-out to our server, Julia, who was friendly and attentive. Looks like Dante's has really stepped up for good. Hope it doesn't change.

It's definitely a hard-working small business, so they're very traditional in how they work. You can walk in and order at their window, or call in an order. They don't deliver so you have to come pick up- they're on the main road in Captiva where most of the shops are, but up on the second floor. There's no true seating inside, it's truly just to walk in, order, and then wait elsewhere. We found the literal one table outside downstairs to eat at, but other than that you figure out in your own what to do once you have the food. But let me say, I really enjoyed the pizza! The wait was worth it. It had plenty of the toppings we asked for, and the crust was the perfect thickness. We also got cheesy bread which was lovely on thick Texas toast, and dipped in marinara it was chefs kiss. Though they're small, they're a great business and it's always better to support local! Plus, great pizza!
