Tropical Reef Naples FL

Tropical Reef "best fish in Naples!"
Apr 2007

I tell everyone about this place after I found it on bestnaplesdining.com! It is very small but ALWAYS busy. You'll want to make a reservation. Every time we have friends or family in town we always take them here, because it is truly the best food/seafood you'll ever have. The specialty, grouper, is insanely delicious. In the evening, they actually set up seating in the cheesecake store next-door to accomodate more guests. It felt a bit strange eating next to a cheesecake cooler, but it was worth it! The restaurant owner, who is the main chef, caters as well. It has taken the owner a few years to get this place off the ground, and it's finally gaining the popularity it deserves! A+

Watermark Grille Naples FL

Watermark Grille "Fantastic Find."
Oct 2006

We visited twice recently and were more than delighted on both occasions. Our find on bestnaplesdining.com. While it's location is easy to find (on the US 41), The atmosphere, food and service more than make up for not being on the beach !
The Stuffed Mushroom starter is truly great. Fantasic seafood, prime rib, and one of the best NY strips I've ever tasted - all perfectly cooked. The Key Lime Pie is to die for, and all served by attentive but not pushy staff. We will check swfloridarewards.com for coupons next time FABULOUS, would definitely recommend a visit.

Crazy Flamingo Marco Island FL

Crazy Flamingo "The Great flamingo!"
Sept 2007

I go to the crazy flamingo all the time w/ my grandma who lives in Marco Island. I think its the best kept secret, they have great buffalo grouper nuggets, they won awards for their wings and for best burgers, and best meal on the island for 10 dollars or less. If you want to know more check out bestnaplesdining.com. There is history there, so what if theres no waiters? every seat is 3 steps from the bar where you pick up your food. The flamingo has some of everything for everyone even the picky eaters like me. Check swfloridarewards.com for coupons for Marco Island and Naples.

The Fish House Fort Myers Beach FL

The Fish House "Great seafood"
May 2007

This little place in Fort Myers Beach has great seafood we found it on bestswfloridadining.com. It doesn't look like much but don't let that deter you. They obviously spend their money on the food not the furnishings. Kind of worn around the edges but great food, great atmosphere and decent drinks. Great fried oysters. My husband got the fried grouper because it was the local fish and we wanted to taste the local white fish. Nothing to get too excited about. The coconut shrimp was great but not enough of them. I heard to check swfloridarewards.com for coupons next time.
