    Lobster,Scallop, and Gulf Shrimp Sauté
    Bobbi D.

    My husband and I went to enjoy and relax, which we did. I had the Lobster, Scallop and Gulf Shrimp Sauté and my husband has the Center Cut Ribeye. They were definitely delicious and the steak was cooked to perfection. My drink Shipwrecked was delicious as well. My dish was so great and I'm one who usually never finishes my meal and usually take leftovers home, but I took nothing home, I couldn't finish all the pasta but left very little on the plate. The service was wonderful, we started with the Clams Casino which was just perfect, even the bread was great, Our waiter was very attentive to our needs. The ambiance is superb as well we were sitting at a window overlooking the Bay and watching boats coming and going. It was very relaxing and enjoyable and will assuredly come here again, even though it's a trip from Babcock Ranch. My husband also had the French Onion Soup and it was delicious, the broth was perfect!!!!!! If you haven't tried this place yet, please do,

    Service was great! Food was not great. Ambiance is a little sleepy - but when you pull up somewhere like this you know where you're getting. I haven't written a poor review in a very long time, today I had a really bad experience with the food at this restaurant. While I'm not a local to Naples, my family has been here for years and I was looking for a good meal at Boathouse (which I've had before). There are 2 few reasons for my poor review 1) Portion for a new subset of the menu was very small. Not disclosed. It was cheaper and I should have noticed however when I ordered the Fish and Chips (pictured) 2) As small as the portion was, one of the pieces of fish was completely spoiled (pictured)

    Salad came presentable and looks delicious. I ordered the clambake I think they cooked it all day everything was so dry the crab legs the clams mussels the and the shrimp I can't even fight with it anymore the only thing you really edible was the corn on the cob and the potatoes. This place really does have potential. The waiter seemed to really cool. He asked me how things were I told him it was really dry. I'm not one to like to waste food so I told him no worries but the more that I ate it the more I realize how really overcooked everything was nobody wants Seafood that is dry with no flavor. The waiter went back and told the cook that my food was overcooked then the waiter came back over to our table to my surprise he said that the cook flipped him off and gave him the finger instead of taking constructive criticism. I'm still appalled. I don't know if I'm grateful or upset that the waiter even told me this if this was my restaurant that Chef would be fired immediately! We didn't log into Yelp immediately I waited till we sat down at the restaurant and noticed it had a three star at first I was surprised like oh no then after seeing the salad I was like this place has potential but after my plate I was very disappointed. Told the waiter he said I will try to get you a discount not promising anything honestly didn't want to Discount. My husband got the prime rib he said it was okay he got two sides cauliflower and Brussels sprouts those are both my favorites so I took a bite immediately of both of his sides they were both cold. So now we just got our bill he said he got us 25% off the bill and then brought me a piece of cake and said that he told them it was my birthday and brought me a piece of cake sorry to say but I am not going to eat this cake I'm afraid of what they might have done to it or put in it after the attitude with the finger I'm good.

    Great food. Great view. Great service. This place was great! Relaxing! We will go back. Our servers (we went for dinner and brunch the next day) were friendly and helpful. The bread they bring to the table was delicious. Go for brunch! Get the banana bread French toast!!!

    Lobster Bisque great flavor needs more lobster for price $8.75
    Frank B.

    I decided to stop in after many recommendations about the view, service, and food. I'm so happy I did! I was greeted immediately by a hostess who after checking server load/availability sat me at a small table (it was only me) with a MAGNIFICENT view of the Bay I was fortunate to be assigned a waitress (Catrina) who did nothing but impress! Make fun of me, but she actually brought LIFE to the ambiance. She wore the pink uniform shirt advertising the restaurant while all other servers I observed wore black.... nice touch I ordered several things, so here's MY take... A cup of the NE Clam chowder came out piping hot and had a great taste with a nice amount of class. 4 out 5 stars $8.25 A cup of Lobster Bisque came out piping hot. Great taste, but not enough Lobster for my taste. 4 out of 5 stars $8.75 Broiled Bacon wrapped Sea Scallops for $16.25 was a let down as the bacon was to raw and the Scallops overcooked. 3 out of 5 stars For entree, I ordered the wild Salmon blackened ($19.00) with a baked potato ($3.00). Salmon great and seasoning not overpowering. The baked potato in my opinion was probably over cooked as it was dark on color and rather dry. I attempted to rescue the discord flavor with the lemon carpet sauce which accompanied my Salmon, but to no avail. Highpoints on this visit were DEFINITELY customer relations, ESPECIALLY Catrina who was always there when I needed her, yet never intrusive. I'll definitely request her on my next visit!

    The Stuffed Shrimp- regular portion. VG!!!
    Foodie K.

    Here last night with Reggie & Elias. First let me say MARK N. was our server and he was the best! Helpful with menu choices, very professional and personable and a great sense of humor. Thanks again Mark. Appreciate it. Also the best was our table overlooking Naples Bay. We were as close as you can get, although every table has a view. The stuffed shrimp was always a big hit for Dottie. I had the Seafood Norfolk and it was very good, but saw pix of my visit three years ago. I should have ordered the seafood paella! The Rhode Island clams casino appetizer was very good. As was the virgin Pina Colada. Desserts were the Key Lime Pie as was suggested. Very good! Enjoy your visit here who's ever reading this. Get that table near the glass.

    Our server Elizabeth and the food great. The location of our table sucked. It was right next to the pier walkway where everyone was coming and going off the boats. Not sure why the hostess sat us at this table when other tables were open on the patio. Note to her she did ask us if it was ok, but at that time we didn't know how many were coming and going off the pier. This was on a Saturday around 3:30 in January. Again staff and food was great.

Pretty good burger. For those who like to drink under a thatched roof outside, there is a tikki hut. The establishment's motif is all over the map. But let's just stay with the island theme in Naples, FL. Would I go back again? I don't know, I have had this book marked, and I have eaten at another of their establishments, Sonny's. They do not have the same menu. I like that.

Google knew it though and the diner showed up when I asked for 'restaurants near me'. This diner is right off Tamiami Trail, a place where many good restaurants are located. Since we got there early, dining was set up for outside, but the great spring weather makes eating outdoors a fun experience. After entering the restaurant, we ordered our food and sat down. There wasn't a long wait for lunch, we got fed quickly and everything was good. The menu is the same as the restaurant at Founders Square, with salads, bowls, a good variety of handhelds, kids options and lots of sides. They even have rotisserie chicken, prime rib and miso salmon, for when you want a little extra. The Parque Del Lago taco salad and California panini looked interesting, but hubs went with the grilled Mahi sandwich and I decided on the classic burger. We both got an order of those addictive sweet potato fries! Service is friendly, the restaurant is clean and welcoming and we'll definitely be back for another lunch in the future.

It's becoming more rare to visit a restaurant that feels like someone's singular vision for a neighborhood or community (instead of a corporate venture). This place is unique & elegant but approachable & welcoming. Highly recommend.
