A Hidden Gem in Downtown Naples -- Don't Sleep on This Place!…read more I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and the place was buzzing -- the outside patio was at full capacity. I asked for a seat at the bar, and even though space is very limited, the staff went above and beyond to find me one. That kind of effort on a packed afternoon says a lot about this team. The bartender was phenomenal -- attentive, warm, and somehow managed to make every single person at that busy bar feel like they were the only guest in the restaurant. The whole staff carried that same energy. They were also wonderfully descriptive about the daily specials and menu offerings, which made ordering a pleasure rather than a guessing game. I decided to try the crab cake, and I'm so glad I did. I grew up on the East Coast eating crab, and I've had my fair share -- I've long held that Phillips in Maryland made the gold standard. I am happy to report that Captain & Crew has dethroned them in my book. This crab cake was pure lump crab meat, not overpowered by fillers or seasoning. You could actually taste the crab. The accompaniments they served alongside it elevated the whole dish even further. Thoroughly impressed. The wine pairings were equally well-curated. I took the staff's recommendations and they absolutely nailed it. A heads-up for first-timers: parking is the one small challenge. There's no convenient lot right there, so you may need to use a parking garage and walk over. Honestly? Embrace it. If you're already in Downtown Naples, it's a beautiful stroll that perfectly sets the mood before you arrive. Captain & Crew is a true hidden gem. Many people come for the fresh seafood market, but don't overlook the restaurant side -- it's absolutely worth your time. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful experience at this establishment. The setting was simple, the service was…read moreexcellent, and the food even better. After sitting down, we started reviewing the menu and saw so many interesting items that it was difficult to choose. Fortunately, our server noticed we were struggling and she offered to help navigate us through our meal. Our goal was to sample a variety of options, but not to over order. And we accomplished just that! We started with some Stone Crabs, then some Peel & Eat Shrimp, then my wife and I shared an entree of Blackened Grouper with sides of fries and coleslaw, where we also added a few scallops. Delicious! We thought we were done, but our server informed us of the excellent Key Lime pie. We had room to share one slice, and we are so happy we did! It was excellent. A great balance of tartness and sweetness. We look forward to returning!

The location is unassuming and kind of hidden but I felt like it was a good sign to see that it was busy when we arrived. We were seated outside under a fan and it was actually quite nice. There's a pool and an outdoor water feature which has a very retro vibe. I ordered the New England Clam Chowder which was really good. No joke, I'm thinking it's one of the best I've tried and I've tried a lot. I had the lobster roll, which was a cold roll, stuffed full of lobster. My husband had the shrimp and lobster Mac and cheese, and my son got the hogfish. All of our dinners were great. The hog fish was light and buttery, the green beans were amazing and didn't taste like an oversight, and the Mac and cheese was full of shrimp and lobster and not heavy. I wish we had saved room for dessert but we were full. Our waiter really seemed to enjoy his job and was so personable and professional. Highly recommend!

The grouper "balls" were deep fried (not oily) and hot and crunchy with pineapple slaw, candied sesame pecans, steamed rice and creamy-mango sauce (can't wait to go back for lunch and order this dish again). My hubby ordered Nemo's Snapper Fish Tacos (2) priced at $18.95 and served with Caribbean rice, warm tortilla (Wheat or Corn) green cabbage, lime, queso fresco cheese, pickled onion condiments selection and creamy apple salad. His meal was outstanding. Highly recommend for a unique place for lunch.

We decided to go with the shrimp cocktail and mahi tacos on corn tortillas. There are also plenty of gluten free options which is nice. Lots of restaurants only have flour tortillas so it was nice having options. We split both items as we were looking for a little afternoon snack. I also had an Arnold Palmer surfside. My new fav vacay alcoholic beverage. This place is lively and lots of TVs to keep up with your fav sport team. It's also a Seminole bar (go gators). I won't hold it against them. Lol. Also a huge wrap around bar and even outdoor seating if that's your preference.

Finally tried their restaurant with 6 other ladies and it was marvelous. I had the swordfish which melted In your mouth. Another ordered salmon and I thought she might lick the plate. Several had the soup of the day and raved about it. One lady ordered oysters and thought she died and went to heaven. Sorry I had to look in another direction, I don't even like looking at them, But to each their own. Also heard raves about the lobster roll. Service was excellent, our waiter works winters here and the summers in Maine, So he knows his seafood. The decor is done very well, the bar is an old boat with the top half over the bar holding glasses and the bottom half the bar. We all thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon at Swan River and we will be back.

Sat inside people and car watching. Cars were by far more eye-catching than women. Ferraris, Lambo, Aston Martin, Bugatti, real lookers. Friend showed up on time. Hot bread arrived. Plenty of good olive oil on table. He had tri-colored salad and I had seafood salad. Not a trace left of either although mine could have had less creamy lemon vinaigrette dressing. Word to wise, perhaps ask for it on the side. He had veal shank with risotto. Me? I had the corvina stew. Ask for a spoon, it's that good. Ordered sautéed spinach and roasted potatoes with herbs. Only thing left was a few grains of risotto and 7 small pieces of the potatoes. The shank was arguably the biggest portion I've seen. Since it was my birthday we were comped a dessert, double espresso and a cappuccino. Plus the dessert had a lit candle along with a table side a cappella Happy Birthday. Although other tables were occupied we had privacy regarding our conversations. Alex was spectacular. Puglia area native. I recommend this place. Great time.

Definitely not for those with claustrophobia!! We were initially told they don't take reservations, yet several parties arrived claiming they had reservations. We also requested indoor seating, but despite plenty of empty tables inside, the owner insisted we wait for outdoor seating because "more people were coming." Meanwhile, regulars appeared to receive preferential treatment and were seated ahead of others. As for the food, the fried calamari, shrimp, scallops, and smelt were the highlights. All crispy, fresh, and very enjoyable. Unfortunately, the marinara sauce tasted watered down, and while both pasta dishes were cooked perfectly al dente, they lacked seasoning and flavor overall. Bar service limited to beer and wine. Disappointing experience due to the inconsistent service and uneven dining experience.
