“I made reservations in advance for Valentine’s Day at Ember and I’m so glad I did! It was our first time visiting and our waitress Miranda was nothing short of spectacular! She made sure to give us “crash courses” on each meat that we cooked! The environment was welcoming and everyone was super friendly and helpful guiding us along as we cooked. The food is amazing, the steak melts in your mouth. The “peanut” sauce was also delicious. I would highly recommend Ember to anyone I know, you can’t beat the experience.

“Took mom to the Viet Kitchen in Fort Myers.. Fabulous 100% authentic Vietnamese food. This was just one of our appetizers... Banh Xeo. A savory crispy-edged turmeric pancake stuffed with bean sprouts, shrimp and pork, alongside carrot, daikon, fresh romaine for wrapping, and a mountain of Perilla, basil, and mint leaves.. Only $10.99, and came with 'sincere' friendly service.. The waitress even asked if the music was too loud for mom! No credit card surcharges.. No sharing charges... My jaw dropped looking at what everyone else was eating... It was like a fine art exhibit......”

FK Your Diet Fort Myers 19630 S Tamiami Trl, Fort Myers Comfort Food • $

“I don’t even know where to start—FK Your Diet absolutely blew me away. From the moment we walked in, everything was on point. We were greeted right away, sat down, and had our drinks in literally 30 seconds. That kind of service just sets the tone, and they didn’t miss a beat from there. The menu is one of those where you genuinely don’t know what to choose because everything sounds that good. And somehow, it actually lives up to it. The staff was absolutely amazing—friendly, dialed in, and clearly proud of what they’re doing. The food? Without a doubt the best breakfast I have ever had in my life. I’m a huge foodie, and this is on the same level as Little Birds food truck in Cape Coral—which says a lot. What really stood out though is their mission of helping the community. That’s something you just don’t see enough of anymore, and it makes supporting them even better. And during a packed breakfast rush, the owner Doug still took the time to come out and personally make sure everything was good. That says everything about how they run their place. I’m telling you—if you don’t choose this place for breakfast, you’re cheating yourself. This might honestly be the best breakfast in the world.”

“My husband and I came in for a fresh seafood dinner and this restaurant did not disappoint. Our waiter, Justin, was incredible from start to finish. His extensive knowledge of the menu offerings coupled with his exuberance had us smiling and laughing like we were speaking with an old friend. We decided to create our own tasting of sorts from the fine selections of fresh seafood. Our meal included the NOLA Oysters which were baked and served with seasoned butter, the crab cake appetizer which was serving of lump crab held together by a crispy sear and no filler, as well as the chilled seafood tower. Every bite from start to finish was delectable. We had crab, lobster, tuna tartar, shrimp and oysters. Each bite was more spectacular than the previous as we sampled each offering. We have already decided the next time we are in town that this restaurant will be a must! 5 Stars out of 5!!”

The car in front of me had one small bag of food. I'm sitting in my car complaining to myself in disbelief that it took so long for a small bag. Get to second window and the female employee automatically gave me a serious attitude. I told her that it was a really long wait and she told me that I should go someplace next time. she assumed that I was yelling at her when I was complaining about the really long wait. Last I knew, you parked people if their food is going to take a while. Not back up the drive thru. And you certainly don't tell your loyal customers to go someplace else or treat them like we are an inconvenience. So thank you to the female in the drive thru who was so nasty to a loyal customer.”

Backyard Social 16371 Corporate Commerce Way, Fort Myers Food Trucks • $$

“Backyard Social in Fort Myers has quickly become one of those rare venues that manages to feel both energetic and relaxed — a place designed as much for gathering as for dining. On both of my visits, each with a group of friends, the experience proved consistent: this is a lively, well-conceived social hub where good food and good company come naturally. The covered structure provides welcome shade while maintaining an open-air ambiance, giving the space a breezy, Florida-appropriate feel. Even with sizable crowds, the layout accommodates larger groups comfortably, with ample seating that encourages lingering conversations and shared meals. When live music is scheduled — as it was during our most recent visit — the venue truly comes alive. A well-positioned stage and additional outdoor seating create an inviting setting to enjoy the performance, while numerous televisions ensure sports fans never miss the action. Service at the bar was efficient and friendly, keeping the evening moving smoothly. Backyard Social’s rotating lineup of food trucks is a central attraction, and our group sampled widely. The standout for me was the Mediterranean truck, whose chicken gyro was exceptional — easily the best I have encountered. Tender, well-seasoned meat paired with fresh accompaniments and balanced sauces elevated what is often casual fare into something memorable. A practical note: when the venue reaches peak popularity, parking can become challenging. Arriving early or carpooling is wise. Backyard Social succeeds by offering exactly what its name promises — a vibrant, communal atmosphere paired with diverse, high-quality food options. For groups seeking a fun, flexible setting with something for everyone, it remains one of Fort Myers’ most appealing gathering spots.”

“Motor City Coney Island Ft Myers 3-25-25 We had to stop by here on a Tuesday for their special priced Coney Island Hot Dog at $2.99. We arrived there at 11:37 with just a couple tables with customers at them, but the place was not packed. This place was neat and very clean with everything in order. I loved the interior, the little bar area and Patio out front. Let me start by saying my expectations were not set high as I figured I’m going to review a place that just serves hot dogs. Boy was I wrong! This place exceeded all my expectations by a mile and then some. They serve so much more than Hot Dogs; they serve Breakfast all day, they have all kinds of Salads, Wraps, Melts, Pittas, Clubs, Gyros, Burgers, Fish and serve Beer and limited Alcohol. They will even Cater events for you. I ordered the Original Coney which had Chillie, Onion & Mustard. My wife Ordered the Tuna Wrap. Our friend ordered the Chili Cheese Dog which came with Chili and Cheese Sauce. We all ordered a side of Fries with our main orders. Our food came out a short time later and it looked amazing. I could not believe how good our food was. Our Dogs were piled high with toppings. This was by far the best Hot dog I had in this area. My wife’s Tuna wrap was very good and so big she could not eat the entire wrap. Our friend loved his Chili Cheese dog. All our food was hot and plenty of it even the Fries were good. Our waiter Freddy was spot on with checking on us. We even met one of the owners Armando which took the time out to introduce himself. You must put this place on your Must Stop By List you will not be sorry and certainly stop back just like we are going to do. I give this Motor City Coney Island a 5 out of 5 stars for the great food, great service, friendly servers, and clean place. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Follow Me On FB For More Reviews Gulf Coast Terry”

For groups seeking a fun, flexible setting with something for everyone, it remains one of Fort Myers’ most appealing gathering spots.”

Everyone encountered here was friendly and helpful with guiding us with our orders. They have a decent beer and wine selection for a small place (if that’s a priority) to accompany your meal. We will definitely put this on our must visit list each trip to the Ft Myers area.”

My only complaint was the kids got cheeseburgers and they were not good. For 9.25, I was hoping for better, lesson learned. But overall, absolutely amazing! I was sad to see Plaka go but Mythos is definitely a good substitute.”

Even though the place is small it’s clean and neat with trains running overhead of you. The walls are lines with hats from businesses all over this area. They have such a large selection and it’s all in the case right in front of you so you can see what you’re going to order. You stand in front of the ice cream cases to order. Lots of times there are lines, but they move fast. They have just about anything you want from 1, 2 or 3 scoops cones to banana splits. They have regular, waffle, to sprinkle cones and bowls. You name it when it comes to ice cream, they have it. I have always liked Daddy Dees ice cream. It’s not soft, it’s a hard ice cream with lots of flavor. If you’re hungry for ice cream don’t pass this place up. I give it 4 out of 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Follow Me On FB For More Gulf Coast Terry”

“As a Google Local Guide Level 7 with over 4.8 million views, I’ve been to a lot of spots—and the World Famous Cigar Bar in downtown Fort Myers is one I know well.
I used to live in Fort Myers for 6 years, and living downtown meant this place was a regular stop for me. It’s connected to Cigar Bar Live, so you’ve got live bands and a great bar scene right next door, which makes the whole setup really fun.
What really makes it stand out is the vibe—dim lighting, cozy chairs and couches, and a relaxed atmosphere that feels welcoming every time you walk in. They also have a humidor on-site with cigars, and you can actually smoke inside, which adds to the classic cigar lounge feel.
Courtni is honestly one of the best bartenders in downtown Fort Myers. She’s knowledgeable, kind, and has that down-to-earth Southern charm that makes everyone feel like family. You can tell she has a ton of regulars for a reason.
Great atmosphere, great people, and a staple spot downtown.”

His extensive knowledge of the menu offerings coupled with his exuberance had us smiling and laughing like we were speaking with an old friend. We decided to create our own tasting of sorts from the fine selections of fresh seafood. Our meal included the NOLA Oysters which were baked and served with seasoned butter, the crab cake appetizer which was serving of lump crab held together by a crispy sear and no filler, as well as the chilled seafood tower. Every bite from start to finish was delectable. We had crab, lobster, tuna tartar, shrimp and oysters. Each bite was more spectacular than the previous as we sampled each offering. We have already decided the next time we are in town that this restaurant will be a must! 5 Stars out of 5!!”

“All I can say is… Wow. In our three winters in Florida, we had not experienced this exquisite place. Tonight was the night we first tried it - I’m kicking myself that it took us so long. The place is one block off of downtown Fort Myers First Street. It consists of two old homes, conjoined, with a valet parking lot. Though we consulted the menu before heading there, we were woefully ill prepared by the enormous wine list and their multiple specials for the evening. Starting at the bar with a pre-dinner drink, we were met by a lovely young lady who gave us the history of the place. Drinking our drinks, she was a delight to speak with. As it was midweek and preseason, we were able to get a table quite easily. Reservations are highly recommended though! Robert was our waiter, and he was an absolute gem. Gave us the rundown of his favorites on the menu upon our request, and gave us ample time to review the menu. We opted for two different steak entrées, and had the table side spinach/hot bacon salad prepared. First course: bread. Yummy rye with cornbread muffins…. They got our taste buds roaring. Next was the tableside salad. Brought out on a wheeled cart with a small gas stove, Robert created a complete masterpiece for us in front of our very eyes. Highly highly highly recommend the spinach/hot bacon dressing salad for 2. Finally, our entrées. Husband had the ribeye and I had the tenderloin. Disclaimer: We are Wisconsinites who love our beef, and are not fond of Florida’s grass fed beef. We were told by Robert that the steaks were beyond reproach, and he was absolutely accurate. Perfectly prepared at medium rare, both steaks were some of the best we’ve ever had…. And we are foodies! I requested mine to be rolled in cracked pepper, the chef followed my directive perfectly. The steaks were very ample for the price point, and included a house salad, whipped potatoes, and vegetables. For the quality of the food, this was very reasonably priced in our opinion. After attacking our meal, we decided to check out the dessert menu. Decided to split a Keylime pie piece, and it was completely wonderful. All desserts are homemade in house. Overall impressions: this place is an absolute must do for special occasions. If you love good food and are OK with paying a fair price, this should be a frequent stop. I’m embarrassed that we have not tried it before, we will become regulars after this visit. Staff was wonderful, the atmosphere is gorgeous, the wine list is extensive, the atmosphere is upscale yet not pretentious. They do offer valet parking, and after 5 PM parking on the street is free. Thank you,Veranda, for an absolutely fabulous dinner. Looking forward to our many leftovers tomorrow. See you soon!!!”

“Picture it.. Minneapolis 2026.. it's -20 for the 10th day in a row and you're over it, so you fly to Ft Myers to thaw out. There's 2 hours before you can check into your air b&b so you pull up your pub pass and see that you're 1/2 a block away from a place, so what the heck... let's go!

That was one of the best vacation choices we've ever made. From the moment we walked in Shane had us on her radar. We found a spot at the bar and she immediately greeted us. She was amazing at helping us pick out the best things to drink. We tried one or two and landed on our favorites pretty quick. Shane was super knowledgeable about all of the beers when others would come in and ask questions about them as well.

Then Shan arrived and it got real. She was also super knowledgeable about all of the beers on tap and the two got to tag teaming the bar like absolute pros! Conversations began and between the two of them we got a pretty amazing layout of the food scene in Ft. Myers and just like that, all of my carefully laid plans for meals for the next 3 days were turned on their head.

In the end we all agreed that even though it was only 63 degrees in Ft. Myers it was still better than freezing to death in all of our home states. We finished our drinks and said farewell with sad faces but happy that we had gone off of our rails and tried this place on a whim.

It’s a casual place with friendly service.

The food was excellent. Lots of choice and we didn’t have to wait long to be served. It’s appropriate for all ages.

The cost is what you’d expect for heavy protein dishes (at what we ordered) and the serving sizes were impressive. Overall, we loved it. We’d go again if we lived nearby.”

Atmosphere is always good not overly loud which makes it hard to carry a conversation when music and guest are too loud. No problems here.
I ordered the half rack of ribs, very tender sweet and delicious . Ordered with sweet potatoe. I did ask for it all the way and not expecting so much sugar on it but that’s probably my fault for not asking what type of sugar was being used. It was definitely not brown and too much dumped on it but was able to knock some off of the potatoe and it did mix well once I mixed it up. Probably will just get plain sweet potatoe next time . Wild West shrimp always delicious appetizer. We called ahead to check on seating just in case or to be put on list but not needed and were able to be seated immediately .”

Taco Works 12731 McGregor Blvd, Fort Myers Tacos • $

“This past Saturday, we went to an amazing bar in Downtown Fort Myers called Escondito. It’s this private, hidden bar tucked away behind freezer doors in the back of a little hole‑in‑the‑wall taco shop called Taco Works. You absolutely do not expect to find a fancy bar behind a taco place, but that surprise is part of the fun. We loved it. Jordan is our favorite bartender — he makes every drink with perfection. The whole staff is so nice and professional, the drinks are delicious, and for a short moment you really do feel like you’re part of an elite secret club. Leaving the bar, my husband wanted to try the tacos. Our plan was to order one each, but Joe who took our order had other plans. He was incredibly nice and oddly hilarious. Somehow our order went from two tacos to tacos, burritos, and nachos. While waiting, we talked with Joe about living here for two months and the places we were thinking of trying next. In the funniest way, with a completely serious tone, he shut down every idea we had and offered “better” locations. He suggested a BBQ spot and an Italian/sushi place he’s never been to personally but swears by. We were laughing the whole time, when our food was ready, we met “the Two Roberts,” the man who handed us our order was so sweet with the sweetest smile, you just wanted to give him a hug, They were working hard but still made time sure the customers were treated with politeness and a smile and everything they made was phenomenal the tacos, nachos, and burritos were all amazing, on the way home, my husband suddenly burst out laughing. Something Joe said earlier went over our heads at the time, and it hit him out of nowhere. Later that night, we looked up the BBQ place Joe recommended, and the BBQ place he told us "we had to try" is actually inside another Taco Works. That had us Howling. Almost two days later while I’m exhausted and trying to sleep, I hear my husband getting off the phone laughing again to the point I had to check and turns out the Italian/sushi place Joe “swears by” is also part of Taco Works. Now I’m wide awake laughing too. Since I cant sleep might as well tell our story. Joe absolutely got us, and he deserves this review. Thank you, Taco Works — we will be back!”

I opted out for their $5 blue moon beer and $5 Long Island iced tea specials, pulled pork entree $16.99 w a sidekick of bbq ribs for $9.99. The entree came w 2 sides - I went w cup of chili (delicious ) and a Ceasar salad, which came first as apps. Pulled pork was tender and juicy, ribs were on point and not drenched in sauce so I could still taste the meat. I was full of the apps , so I could only take few bites of my entree, it absolutely went home w me , and I made couple of meals of it. Great experience-I shall return!”
