The dockside location is quite nice with a good view of the Bay. Neither my wife or I thought there was anything special about the food. Our waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable. There are too many good restaurants in Naples for us to return here.

Looked iike a nice place. Inside was nicer than the outside. Water views. Took awhile to get our food and unfortunately it was not worth the wait. The broiled flounder was very plain, Not much flavor. The fried platter would have been a better choice. Crab cakes were ok. Still not alot if flavor.

The food and service was good. There was an “unusual” smell in the restaurant which was off-putting.
