Friends rave about this place. I finally had a chance to go. I called because open table has zero…read moreavailability. The hostess answered and she told me I could have a table for one at 7:15! Ok! I got dressed up and walked over there. My table was ready on time; it was in the lounge area of the restaurant. They offered me the table or said I could sit at the bar. I opted to sit at the bar. The bar was almost full but people were leaving. Apparently people eat early there. The bartender was swamped but smiled and got me a glass of water. Soon I had menus. I like that they have a regular menu as well as a specials menu, including the usual cocktails and some special cocktails. I ordered the conquest, which seemed like a twist on an old fashioned. They offered bread or focaccia bread, I declined. And heads up- bread service is not included. It's an up charge. Normally I don't care but I was having dessert, not bread. I had the halibut special. It was phenomenal. One of the guys from the kitchen dropped it off and asked if I needed anything'- I replied salt. I find that I need salt often at restaurants. They brought the salt out real fast! I had a bite and determined it didn't need any more salt- it was perfectly salted! Woohoo! Fantastic. I ate my whole dish and then I savored my cocktail. The bartender wasn't much for conversation , as she was very busy, alone, covering the entire bar and drinks for the whole restaurant. She did invite me to try dessert, and mentioned a coconut cream cake that was not on the menu. I agreed to it and it was heavenly. Seemed like cheesecake icing with fluffy layers of cake and subtle coconut flakes throughout. The chocolate ice cream was weird at first but then I realized it's like almond joy/ mounds - coconut and chocolate are often paired. The espresso crumble gave it a nice crunch and there was caramel all over the plate. Wow! I took the majority of the cake home. It was a large portion and indulgent. I paid my tab and finished my drink. I was not rushed. I would go back again. It's a bit pricey. The fish special was $58. The cocktail was $17 and the dessert was $16. So one person, who did not add on the bread service, was $91. It's expensive. I would emphasize you can probably get a seat at the bar if you can't get a reservation. Also- the entrance is hard to find. It's in the parking lot and not facing the main road. I got a little lost walking there. The signage is poor. I can't imagine going there the first time in the dark. So give yourself a couple extra minutes if it's your first time going there.

She found Leroy's Southern Kitchen & Bar in Punta Gorda, and let me tell you this place isn't a restaurant it's a whole Saturday night experience! I walked in thinking there had to be a festival, birthday party, or somebody famous in town. Nope! That's just how they roll every Saturday. Live music, people dancing, everyone smiling I started wondering if they slipped happiness into the sweet tea. Now the wife ordered the Nevermind Pressed Burger with extra cheese and black coffee steak sauce. NEVERMIND?? More like Never mind my diet! One bite then another then another and suddenly her plate looked like the dishwasher had already been there. The burger was cooked perfectly, juicy, cheesy, and that steak sauce should be illegal in at least 12 states. Meanwhile, I ordered the 10 oz. Skirt Steak with jasmine rice, carrots, green onions, and their house made Asian marinade. Listen whoever made that sauce I need the recipe, your autograph, and your retirement plan. I was this close to asking for a to go cup so I could pour it on my cereal tomorrow morning. Mama mia that steak disappeared faster than my paycheck after my wife says, Let's just stop at one more store. Then dessert happened. We saw our neighbors order the homemade Banana Nilla Pudding special. My wife looked at me with that look that says, We're getting one. Fellas you already know that's not a suggestion. Well she got one. I got exactly three bites. THREE! ‍ By the time I looked back, the jar was cleaner than the windows at a car wash. Dear Lord now I understand why my doctor keeps telling me to watch my sugar. That pudding almost had me scheduling my next A1C appointment from the table. The live band had me singing songs from back in the day don't ask which ones. Some of y'all are detectives and I'm not giving away my age! And a huge shout-out to Athena! She knew that menu like she wrote it herself. Friendly, funny, attentive she made us feel like regulars even though it was our first visit. So thank you, Uncle Leroy! Between the food, the music, the atmosphere, and my wife stealing 97% of the dessert, this was the perfect way to end an unforgettable Father's Day getaway. Five stars. Come hungry leave happy and if you order the Banana Nilla Pudding, order TWO. One for your wife and one that you hide under the table. Trust me.

Kings Roadhouse Bar & Grill…read more Atmosphere and Service We stopped by on Monday at about 1:30 p.m. The restaurant was not very busy, so we were seated quickly. The interior was attractive, neat, and clean, with a large bar, ample bar seating, and plenty of high-top and standard tables throughout the dining area. There is also a spacious outdoor patio with TVs. Our server, Skylar, greeted us promptly and took our drink and food orders. She answered all our questions and was very helpful throughout the meal. What We Ordered * Lunch Special: Fresh-battered haddock fish and chips. For a lighter option, we substituted a salad for the fries. Food and Overall Experience Skylar asked whether we wanted our salads first, and we said yes. They arrived quickly, looked appealing, and tasted fresh. The haddock followed soon afterward and was amazing. It was large enough to fill most of the plate, fried to a perfect golden brown, and exceptionally fresh. This was not only the best haddock I have had in the area but the largest. Skylar checked on us regularly, and her service was top-notch. Her attentive service set an excellent standard. I wish other servers would take after her. The food, service, and atmosphere all exceeded our expectations. I cannot wait to return, and Kings Roadhouse deserves a place in your regular dining rotation. Rating: 5 out of 5 stars Gulf Coast Terry

Many restaurants in this area open from 4 PM to 9 PM. F M Don's is one of the exceptions. Four of us stopped by to have lunch. There are many outside surrounding this corner location, but we opted to have the inside tables to avoid the Floridian Sun! This is a weekday and off season; the place is not full! The staff is super friendly, and ambiance is clean and pleasant. There are pictures on wall displaying the old Punta Gorda buildings, and harbor. They have a good selection of wine available. We ordered a Cuban sandwich, Crunchy Cod Po Boy, Roast Beef Hoagie with cheese and a PEI Mussels Provencal. The Cuban sandwich, Cod Po Boy and Roast Beef Hoagie were fine. The side order of potato salad has a little too much vinegar. The star today is the PEI mussels Provencal. The PEI mussels are not huge, but they were well prepared with garlic, capers, herbs and white wine. My other favorite lunch dish is their Fisherman's Chowder. We finished our meal with Peanut Butter cheese cake and a key lime pie. They were delicious! Another fine meal at F M Don's!

Service: Our server and bartender, Kim, was excellent. She provided fast, attentive service and took the time to explain the daily food specials as well as how the drink special works. Food: We started with the lobster bisque, which arrived first and was surprisingly good. For our main meals, we ordered a prime rib sandwich with fries and a BLT with fries. The entrées came out shortly afterward, and everything was served hot, fresh, and full of flavor. * The lobster bisque was rich and tasty. * The prime rib sandwich was especially enjoyable. * The BLT and fries were also hot and very good. Overall Impression: Between the great service, tasty food, and friendly atmosphere, Finnegan's Grill & Pub made us feel like family. It was the kind of experience that makes you want to go back.
