For those who have been to Trader Sam's at Disneys Polynesian Resort…read more... Picture that, but less theatrics. Ie Great Vibe, same style tiki drinks, the menu book is fashioned in the same leather bound style... I actually took a break from my phone and watched the bar tenders make the drinks.. I already plan to come back. For those reading...it's true what everyone else is probably already saying...if rocking up in a big group...come super early or else you will be waiting and hour or more. I got lucky as it was just me.

The very definition of unnecessary pretension!…read more This pretentious place doesn't belong in Bonita Springs. More like 5th Avenue Naples. It would fit right in down there. I live right around the corner from this joint. I was riding my bike past when I heard a band playing inside. They sounded fun, so I walked inside to see the band and to sample their cocktails, since I had never been inside before. I was alone. A few seconds after entering, an employee asked me "How many in your party?" I said, "Just me." The employee said "Follow me." and escorted me back out the front door! Turns out there was a wait list for entering! For one person? There was plenty of room inside the joint for one person to enter and enjoy the music. There was no call to have a solo occupant on their every first experience inside this place to be escorted out 30 seconds after going inside. That's the very definition of inhospitable! If I had been in a party of 2, 3, 4, 5 or 8 people, I would have understood having to wait outside until there was room. But I was by myself! Not only that, there is a large patio in the back of the place for overflow, but instead of letting their waiting guests sit back there comfortably, the owners of this place prefer to have their customers line up like cattle outside the front door like it is trying to be Studio 54 or some urban night club with a fake wait list. I have never been escorted out of a bar before, especially to create the illusion the place was more popular and too busy to accept a single person when there was A TON OF ROOM INSIDE. It was extremely annoying and totally pretentious. I won't be going back to this place, ever. Not hospitible in the least! Negative stars, if it was possible.

Just one word: EXCEPTIONAL!…read more The place looks gorgeous, the decor is so tropical and chic... then you look at the menu and you find so many interesting options! The hummus is homemade and you can't stop eating it but make sure to leave space for the food because it is worth it, we tries the pizzas which are not your regular or common pizzas, these area Mediterranean style and the combination and the crust is out of this world! Definitely a place to come back and keep trying new dishes (and hopefully leave space for dessert next time because this opportunity I couldn't try it). Our server was friendly and recommended to try the hummus since it was our first time at Canary and she was on point! She was also very helpful and kind with my son and his special requests.

Went for a birthday celebration with 8 people where they accommodated us comfortably with…read morereservations. The atmosphere was lively where it was a mix of young and old. The cocktails were great where the Lavant Bloom was popular. Enjoyed the Fattoush and wood roasted cauliflower for appetizers. I'm allergic to apricots so they were nice enough to take it out. Tried the lamb, pepperoni, shrimp, and nightshade pizzas. Out of the four the lamb was the winner. The lemon olive oil cake and pistachio gelato were for dessert. The pistachio gelato was a team favorite. Would I go there again? Yes.

The Kava tenders here are fantastic! They're friendly, knowledgeable, and always happy to answer…read morequestions.

If you've been curious about trying kava or are looking for a great place to hang out, stop by. You won't be disappointed!

What an incredible dinner at Bohemian! The food was unique, boutique, beautifully presented, and…read moreabsolutely delicious. We enjoyed everything from the Kung Pao Brussels Sprouts, Burrata Citrus, and Tuna Crispy Rice to the Mini Seafood Tower, Ribeye, and Warm Crab & Lobster. Each dish was creative, distinctive, and packed with flavor. Dessert was just as memorable -- Banana Pudding, S'Mores Cake, and Pistachio Gelato made for the perfect finish. A special shoutout to Marissa, our amazing server. She was warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience even better. Creative, elevated food with fantastic service and a great atmosphere. A truly memorable evening at Bohemian -- we'll absolutely be back!!!

Also, Shannon, who manages the bar, is one of the best in the industry; very professional and she interacts so well with her customers. The one area that could use improvement is they need more heaters, or at least heaters that function. During this cold snap, the lack of heaters will definitely shorten the length of your stay!

Amazing happy hour specials and sushi!…read more Was so happy to find this hidden gem located in front of Koreana hibachi restaurant. When you walk through the gate to koi lounge you see the charming tiki hut, lots of outdoor seating, a koi pond and even flaming lanterns in the winter months. The happy hour deals run from 3-7 and are hard to beat! The house wine is priced at $3 a glass and the servings are VERY generous, they also offer a happy hour sushi menu with many varieties and sushi for only $5. The service is quick and attentive, the atmosphere is casual and trendy and the food is delicious! The sushi comes from koreana and is always of the highest quality. You won't be disappointed by koi lounge!

For my entree I had the wagyu and it was cooked perfectly. They sizzle menu was the same portion size as the regular menu which was fabulous. Then I finished with the guava cheesecake ragoons and for someone who doesn't love guava they were pretty freaking good! The rooftop adds such a cute vibe and a perfect photo op! Service was fast and our server was the perfect amount of attentive, we were there for my friends birthday and they were all really nice!

Food is really creative, but many of the dishes are just ungodly sweet. Charred kale salad was probably the best kale salad I ever had, perfectly delicious and highly recommended. The roasted Brussels sprouts, on another hand, were really, really sweet. The French toast with duck was really creative, but again, really, really, sweet. Seafood fried rice was excellent, very tasty. The "cinnamon roll" desert was just a riot. It was huge in size and delicious to the last morsel. Excellent service, prompt and attentive. Recommended, but if you don't like sweet cuisine, you will need to be careful with your choice.

We didn't know he…read morewas the owner at first, but Tim was attentive to us and every table there throughout the evening. If you like different flavors, this is the place. It is very unique. My first course a Caesar salad had some brown romaine, so I returned it though it had great flavors, but wasn't wanting to wait for a new fresh one to be made, so they took it off the bill and insisted on an immediate complimentary beet salad replacement which I took them up on. The beets and cheese part was awesome. I didn't mention it to them, but I used to be an executive chef of high end white table cloth restaurants years ago all over the SE including New Orleans, Atlanta, Tampa, so I was very impressed with their wanting to make us all extremely happy and make up for the salad mistake. The flavors in the Tuna Tare Tare, Shrimp Ceviche was incredible, and my Lamb Shank had some of the best spices I have ever tasted in a shank. Then the owner insisted on a comp baklava dessert for our mother's birthday and it was a very unique original flambe' presentation. Most of the places I was a chef at, the servers had to do old school tableside caesar with the egg yolk, dinner like Steak Diane, dessert and flambe' drinks and I realized how rare that this is these days. Many restaurants could learn from Amber Cove, as they turned a somewhat little disappointing salad start to a great evening with class.
