    Dinner with Family......went to Alexander's Garden Restaurant in Naples, FL, food was great, Service was great also, too much Food to name.

    Phyllo Wrapped Shrimp

    Outstanding experience, loved sitting outside on a pleasant evening. (The place was quite packed!) Food was incredible, great service, beautiful ambiance. I can't say enough great things! The outdoor space is just so lovely, and the heat lamps are a nice touch for the nights it does get chilly. We started with two glasses of wine, they have a nice selection of wines by the glass and give you a nice pour (close to 9oz!) The bread they give us was so warm and tasty, and the butter was the best I've ever had, omg! I need to get some of that! It was creamy, slight garlic flavor, and had an easy spreadable consistency - right at room temperature (which is how it should always be served!) We then split the shrimp phyllo which was unlike anything I've ever had, and a huge appetizer too. Loved the aioli sauce that came with it. The phyllo pastry was unique and delicious. Very European. They had a ton of specials for dinner, so it was really hard to choose, but I went with the crispy duck and it did not disappoint. First off, it was a lot of food. Secondly, it was cooked to perfection and the lingonberries were a nice touch. Lots of meat on this duck! And the skin was so nice and crispy. We did not order dessert, but I was so tempted too. I know it would have been out of this world!

    Burnt coffee in an espresso cup, passed off as an espresso.

    I had grouper and it was delicious. Their happy hour at the bar is only offered to those who have a reservation at the bar. I ordered espresso and I'm not sure what it was. It was not espresso and I was not able to drink it. It taste like burnt coffee.

    Lushious cocktail!

    Top Notch Service. Mia was our server, a fellow New Englander. She was perfect and made some great suggestions - we loved them all. The ambiance cannot be beat. We really loved it.

    I almost deployed my calibrated decibel-detection device tonight, complete with weighted A-scale…read morereadings and ambient baseline controls but then I remembered some fragile soul once reviewed BrickTop's as "too loud," with HIS OWN decibel device so I decided to spare the room the science experiment. Tragic. Food and drinks? Excellent across the board. French dip was on point, burger either an over easy egg snd multiple apps disappeared quickly, baked potato done right, and the espresso martinis were dangerously good. Major shout-out to Ashley behind the bar -- absolute pro -- though honestly the entire bar staff deserves applause. Watching the bartenders run the room is like watching a choreographed ballet. They somehow keep a mental spreadsheet of the waitlist, open seats, timing, and guest flow, seamlessly slotting people in without chaos or drama. It's impressive, calm, and clearly run by people who know exactly what they're doing. Now, to the inevitable dog commentary: yes, restaurants have rules. Yes, health codes exist. And no, a dog in a baby stroller is not a service animal. That stroller should be reserved for, stay with me here, babies. Leave your dog at home for two hours. It will survive. So will you. I will happily return to any restaurant that enforces Collier County health code, serves great food and drinks, and employs a staff that runs the room with confidence and competence. BrickTop's checks every box.

    Another great visit to Backyard Fire Grill--this place just doesn't miss…read more Stopped in with my wife for a low-key evening, grabbed some wings and a couple of cold beers. Simple? Sure. But sometimes simple done right is all you need. The wings were on point, the beers were cold, and the vibes were immaculate. Great music, laid-back atmosphere, the kind of spot where you walk in stressed and walk out smiling. And then there's Tina. She waited on us again, and honestly, she's a big part of why we keep coming back. Always awesome, always on top of it, makes you feel like a regular even if you're not. Good service elevates a good meal into a great experience, and Tina delivers every time. Here's my only complaint: I wish there was one closer to Fort Myers. We'd be here all the time if it wasn't a trek. And honestly? This concept would crush it as a larger restaurant with a full bar. Palm Beach Boulevard is seriously lacking in quality restaurant options, Backyard Fire Grill would absolutely dominate that area. Just putting that out into the universe. Someone make it happen. The Verdict: Wings, beers, great vibes, and Tina taking care of us, another five-star visit to Backyard Fire Grill. This place has the formula dialed in. Now expand it so we don't have to drive so far. Please and thank you.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

She knows how to balance the friendly with the quick and efficient service that caters to her Pelican Bay customers. All the regulars are greeted by name, just as they would at the restaurant. I can't believe it's taken me this long to go this location. My morning routine definitely needs to take a detour from now on. They have a great set up in the main lobby of the Wells Fargo Bank building and they have an assortment of ready-to-go items such as yogurt parfait, tuna salad, chicken salad, hummus plate, various salads and fresh sides. Of course you can order off the hot grill for any of their to-die-for sandwiches, and they always have a daily special going on. I'll continue to update with more pictures when I find a suitable time to not be in a conveyor belt situation during the lunch rush! Ps. The phone number listed is used to call ahead orders...briiilliant.

    We had an amazing experience at Bicyclette Cookshop on a Monday night for dinner with my husband…read moreand my in laws. Everyone in our group was thrilled with the entire evening. The drinks were creative and tasty, and while the wine list is short, it is very well curated. We started with the octopus, the bread and butter, and the mushrooms as appetizers. All three were excellent, but the octopus was the clear standout. I had never seen it served in that particular style before. It was a completely new preparation for me and absolutely delicious. The bread and butter was also finger licking good. For my main course, I ordered the cod gnocchi. I am still thinking about this dish three days later because the flavors and textures were so unusual and memorable. To finish the meal, we shared the chocolate tart and the tiramisu bread pudding. Both were delicious, though they did not feel quite as uniquely extraordinary as every other bite and sip we had throughout the night. One of our party members is gluten and dairy free, and our waitress was incredibly helpful in navigating the menu for her. She was thrilled with the shrimp from the daily specials menu. My only minor critique is that I wish they had a dessert option that would have worked for her dietary restrictions. Overall, this was a fantastic meal with top tier service.

    I understand why Bicyclette Cookshop has such a loyal following. Most of the reviews seem to fall…read moreinto two camps, people who absolutely rave about the food and service, and others who feel it's very good but not quite living up to the hype and that prices are too high. My experience landed somewhere in the middle. First, the positives. The staff was truly excellent. Our server, Thomas, was the highlight of the evening. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely great at what he does. Everyone we interacted with was welcoming and professional, and the service throughout the meal was fantastic. Except for the one employee who worked at the bike shop next-door that were a demeaning T-shirt and acted like he was the boss getting his water jug refilled. The food itself was very good, and clearly well prepared. I had the chicken schnitzel, which was served on a wonderful sauce with slices of what tasted like lightly pickled daikon radish. The dish was interesting and well executed, but I found myself wishing for a little more balance perhaps a small side salad or something fresh to break up the richness of the schnitzel. That was sort of the theme of the evening for me. Everything was good, sometimes very good (bread and butter exceptional) but it lacked that extra depth or daring flavor that makes you stop mid-bite and tell everyone at the table, "You have to try this." The burger was also excellent, but again, it didn't quite reach that memorable "best burger I've ever had" level you hope for when visiting a place with so many five-star reviews. I even found myself dipping the burger into the schnitzel sauce just to add a little more punch. To be clear, I don't mind the prices at all. When dining somewhere with such consistently glowing reviews, though, you walk in hoping to leave thinking it was one of the best meals you've had. I didn't quite leave with that feeling. In fact, I debated ordering dessert but ultimately decided that I might be left disappointed so we decided to skip it and head to Kilwins instead. Overall, it was a very good meal with exceptional service, but just shy of the "wow" factor that would make it a five-star experience for me.
