Me and my wife, the 2 of us, ate our meal for $26. We had a great time here, on a busy Thursday morning. We had been asked for our orders about 7 minutes after getting seated. Everyone on their team was in A+ mode. We enjoyed the service, meals and the price. No automatic gratuity was forced on us and I think we all gave great tips to the team. I HIGHLY recommend this establishment.

My patty melt lacked seasoning and flavor, but the beer battered fries were crisp and tasty. The country fried steak was okay, the gravy was pretty tasty and the home fries indeed looked home made. The inside is designed to be like a nostalgic dinner. It was comfortable and clean.

It's genuinely extremely disappointing, because I really did like everything else. If it weren't for their AI menus, this would be a 5 star review easily. I wouldn't have gone here to begin with if I had known they use AI. Extremely disappointing. ** EDIT - With the knowledge of pulling AI Menus, I am extremely happy to say that I can wholeheartedly recommend Dockside Waterfront Grill. Thank you.

Thank goodness the weather has finally gotten nicer and that suffocating summer heat has eased up,…read morebecause I can finally get back to one of my absolute favorite spots - Nokomo's Sunset Hut! I was SO happy to be back. I have seriously missed their tacos! I stopped by Friday for the lobster tacos, and they did not disappoint. Big, juicy, flavorful pieces of lump lobster claw meat that you can actually sink your teeth into - so, so good! I couldn't decide on a side, so naturally I had both: the pineapple coleslaw (pretty much the only coleslaw I'll eat!) and the chips. And my Lime in the Coconut margarita was delicious. But Nokomo's is about more than the food. I missed the whole vibe - happy, fun, relaxing, and absolutely breathtaking. That waterfront sunset key view is one of a kind and pretty tough to beat. The staff was friendly and attentive as usual, and I also noticed they paved the parking lot! Such a nice improvement and much easier to walk across. While I was taking updated menu pictures, I noticed my old menu photos on Yelp - For the most part, the menu has stayed pretty consistent. What really surprised me was that most prices have only gone up about $3 over the past two years. The lobster tacos are the exception - they've gone up about $8. I've heard they basically break even on them, and all I can say is THANK YOU for keeping them on the menu because they are my favorite! While sitting at the bar, I also saw some oysters go by that looked amazing. They were from Louisiana. And then there was a cheesesteak that was stuffed so generously it looked big enough for two people! I can't wait to try some of those next time. If you haven't been to Nokomo's Sunset Hut, you don't know what you're missing. Come treat yourself to delicious food, a cold drink, live music and those beautiful, laid-back Southwest Florida vibes. And do yourself a favor - go before season gets into full swing, while you can still get in without an hour-long wait! I'm already looking forward to going back for the grouper tacos, along with some of my other favorites - the Aloha Salmon, Caribbean Salmon, Salmon Caesar, or really anything salmon. And anything ahi tuna is always calling my name too!

Great place to take pics, this is being redone, as Hurricane Milton took down some of the locations.

my husband and I went to this place for the first time last week and wanted to try it out, I ordered my eggs over easy and they came out hard and cold. My husband ordered a omelet and grit, the omelet came out brown and to well done, and the grits had no flavor and were very runny. We also waited for a second cup of coffee and didn't even get attention or offered another cup until our breakfast was done. We didn't really care for this place I don't think we will be ever going back read more

A prime rib special worth remembering -- just not for the reason you think…read more I had breakfast here a couple of weeks ago, and the waitress told me I had to come back on Saturday for the prime rib special. She said it was so good and so popular that it sold out early, and encouraged me to get there early. So I did. I arrived about an hour and a half after opening, expecting this supposedly legendary Saturday special. The restaurant was maybe one-third full. My husband ordered a hamburger, which was thoroughly average. I ordered the prime rib. Unfortunately, the prime rib was anything but special. It was brown, and when I cut into it, the first two bites were so fatty that I couldn't eat them. I hadn't eaten anything else on the plate either. I simply told the waitress that I really wasn't going to eat it and asked her to take it back. And then came the truly memorable part. The chef/owner came storming over to our table and yelled at me, essentially demanding to know what was wrong with the prime rib and telling me that everybody was eating it and that it was good. Apparently, my taste buds were the problem. I wasn't rude. I wasn't looking for a free meal. I didn't make a scene. I simply didn't like the food and wasn't going to eat it. Somehow, that warranted being confronted and yelled at by the person running the restaurant. The waitress looked embarrassed by the entire exchange. I felt embarrassed for the restaurant. We paid our bill, and I still tipped the waitress on the full amount because her behavior wasn't the problem. And here's the irony: of the relatively small number of people in the restaurant, only a handful were actually eating the prime rib. So much for the "get here early because it sells out" warning. Maybe their prime rib is wonderful to some people. Food is subjective. But being yelled at by an owner because you politely returned a meal you couldn't eat is not subjective. That's simply bad customer service. A restaurant can have an off night with the food. What it shouldn't have is an owner who makes a paying customer feel unwelcome for having an opinion about it. I came back because I was told this was a Saturday special I shouldn't miss. They were right about one thing: I won't miss it again.

If you're looking for a good start to your day, keep driving. The Food: I'm pretty sure my breakfast combo was cooked in oil that hasn't been changed since the turn of the century. The hashbrowns weren't crispy--they were just a heavy, grey sponge dripping with lukewarm grease and dark burnt. I ordered bacon, but what I got looked and tasted like carbonized wood chips, when I asked for crispy bacon, it was rubbery. The Eggs: Supposed to be cheese omelette with mushrooms, but they managed to be simultaneously rubbery on the edges and swimming in a puddle of mystery oil. Burnt toast, burnt English muffin. Everything felt heavy, oily, and completely un-editable. Save your stomach and your money. There are a million breakfast joints out there--don't risk it on this grease trap.

First off everything is better in off season. Everyone seems a little bit more relaxed there's no traffic the servers and staff are happy there are places to park. Our server was a tad pregnant and as sweet as sugar. She helped us out with coffee of course and plenty of water it wasn't too hot so we sat outside. I ordered my usual which is eggs sausage toaster English muffin and some fruit. My wife got fruit and English muffin and some bacon. I don't know if breakfast tastes better on vacation but this one sure did it was fantastic. We did leave room for a cinnamon roll I wasn't prepared for the size or the scope of how big the cinnamon roll was. If you can imagine the size of a newborn's head being a cinnamon roll that's pretty much what this was. We both were able to take a bite but we're pretty much full up after three cups of coffee so we took the cinnamon roll home and had it later on that evening for dessert. The place is clean it's run well the manager was on site and I love it when the locals come in because they know where to go when the food is proper. Well I can't imagine the nightmare it would be trying to get breakfast during the high season I'm sure these guys can keep up but it was a really awesome dining experience and I enjoyed it will return

Back in Chicago there so many great amazing restaurants and yet are what we call a "hole in the wall" the place looked clean, the owner was very enthusiastic welcoming and helpful, the portions were good and the food was very tasty! Don't walk or drive by because it's a "pearl in an oyster shell." We ordered a steak Philly on a hoggie roll with cheese onions & peppers, a double cheeseburger (HUGE!), a chicken bacon ranch wrap, a loaded Philly steak wrap, an order of onion rings (highly recommended), an order loaded chile cheese tatter tots (did not care for that way but the plain tots were very good!) I believe we should support locals and especially when they work hard and take pride in their product! We will be back! Can't wait to taste their Ruban or pastrami sandwiches that they're known for!
