Best fish and key lime pie we had all week (I will keep the competition nameless). Not fancy but really fresh fish- grilled, blackened or fried. Also, always live entertainment.

We had a fantastic lunch here. I braced myself for mediocre service based on some recent Yelp reviews but either we got lucky or their service has improved substantially. Our server was friendly and prompt. Our food came out quickly and it was really tasty. I loved the grouper fingers. They also have live music that added to the chill ambiance of the place.

The food was good! We had crab cakes, better than most, French fries done just the way we like them, and drinks. The service was ok. Loved the outdoor seating.

For being an island restaurant they can do so much better, their food is mediocre at best, I ordered grouper bites, the breading was bland, my wife ordered a burger and I’m pretty sure they are frozen patties, the crispy reuben had fish that isn’t even native to the area, the fries tasted freezer burnt, there are so many much better restaurants in the area. If you are looking for good food at a reasonable price stay away!! Won’t be returning.

Food is not great. Peel n’ eat shrimp rubbery. Over-priced entrees. Oysters served in melted ice - not impressed. Over deep-fried fish entree. Need to work a lot harder for a decent review.

We had a great breakfast. 3 of us had traditional eggs Benedict. My husband and I also had a drink there one night and listened to the singer and he was awesome

Food was good, nothing out of this world. Prices were steep compared to a lot of other places I visited during my stay. Would I give it another chance? Probably. Parking is an issue, as with many places in Captiva.

Was in Captiva last week and had breakfast there 3 times. Mikayla was our server twice and she was just excellent! Our food was very good each day as well. We will be back!

Here for the weekend and stopped in for breakfast. Great atmosphere with some of the most friendly staff. I also want to add that the food was also amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone in or visiting the area.
Great small town beach restaurants. Food was amazing and staff was super friendly!

Been there before, love their Grouper finger basket. Just went there today, Friday March 1st at 2:20 pmThe waitress outside was very sarcastic and rude to my husband and I from the minute we walked in and was seated. Decided to leave before ordering food. We live in Port Charlotte and come here to eat occasionally. Will try again another time, unless she's there. Called restaurant to talk to manager. She answered the phone and said there is no manager.

Tables so close that when the table next to us was seated I had to keep my elbow next to my body to keep from hitting them. Food was expensive and came out wrong. Our waiter never checked on us so I flagged down another and asked to just get an order of fries since my husband was already halfway done with his food by then. Instead I was brought another full meal - don't get the French dip btw. Can't speak to the drinks because we were never asked if we wanted anything to drink. I went outside in the car to wait - i've been in the car 15 minutes and hubbys still trying to get the check. This in a half empty restaurant.
