    Gumbo Limbo is still one of my favorite spots! The staff is always so nice and the food is incredible! You couldn't find a more relaxing place for lunch! We go and play corn hole on the beach till our tables ready!

    Great place to see the sunset. The food is decent for a beach bar, granted it is a Ritz Carlton beach bar. The service is efficient and the atmosphere wonderful. We saw a wedding at the beach when we were there. Plan to have a wait, since there are no reservations. Sunset hours are very busy.

    Best dining experience ever! My husband and I were staying at the Ritz for our anniversary and we decided to stay on property and have our celebratory dinner right by the ocean at The Gumbo Limbo during sunset. We were greeted and sat immediately. Miranda was our server and she was outstanding! Very attentive to our needs and made wonderful recommendations for our meal. My husband and I, each got an appetizer and an entree. I ordered the coconut shrimp and the grouper sandwich (fresh catch) and my husband ordered the southwest salad (1/2 portion recommended by Miranda) and the Cheeseburger. Everything was cooked perfectly and the flavors were delicious! We ordered the key lime pie for dessert and it had the perfect tart to sweet ratio. Miranda informed us that they were taking care of the dessert which was a pleasant surprise, but it doesn't stop there. Right before the sunset we were approached by a hostess, who told us the have a tradition of ringing a bell on the dock and we were selected to do so! It was such a cool and unexpected experience. After we rang the bell, we received a miniature version of the bell as a gift to take home with us as a memorial token. Every little detail made a very large impact on our entire evening. This was so memorable for us and we are forever grateful! Thank you to Miranda and the Ritz team for going out of the way to make this night great!

    Yelena was our beachside attendant. She was sonic bribe. Attention to details. Gave great recommendation. She was thoughtful and prompt and courteous. Totally enjoyed the coconut shrimp and the drinks. We're pricey but generous. Try the creme brûlée and key line porn

    I fell in love with the Four Seasons... I research. I bookmark. I then thibk about places that stand out. I visit and then some places just stick with me. Gumbo Limbo is a memorable place. First and foremost the Four Seasons Naples is beautiful!! The grounds make you feel like you are in Hawaii. To get to Gumbo Limbo you do get to walk through the hotel and get an opportunity to really take it in. Gumbo Limbo is an upscale tiki restaurant on the water. Think full ocean view. Little sharks jumping at dusk. People walking at sunset along the beach and then when it got dark the tiki torches were lit. Stunning view. The service was top notch. Metal water cups? Fancy (you can take them home and i did!) Keeps the water colder longer. A basic menu but absolutely no complaints. The vibe is chill. I would HIGHLY suggest visiting for the view but take the tine to fall in love with the Four Seasons (my friends even said the place smelt amazing!)

    The view here is absolutely beautiful and the customer service was insanely good. The space is a little tight, but honestly that's understandable given the location. It doesn't take away from the experience at all. If anything, it just shows how popular the place is. I do think a couple more bathrooms would help, but again, I get that space is limited. Our server was amazing. Even though the place was very busy, he was quick, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. He truly went above and beyond to make sure we were happy, which made the experience even better. The food was great too. The burger was delicious, the salad was fresh and perfectly done, and the steak was flavorful and grilled just right. Overall, an amazing experience... easy five stars.

    Overall, I would say the food is decent. We had chips, salsa and guacamole, and the salsa was definitely very tomato heavy. My Fiancé got the grouper sandwich which he said was good but definitely not the best that he had. The bread was cooked well and had a nice toast to it. The service was good for sure, but the wait was definitely longer than they quoted us so just keep that in mind you may have to wait longer than you're told. I would say the main reason to come here would be the sunset with a cocktail. The cocktails were definitely very good and the view was absolutely amazing.

    Grouper sandwich and French fries
    Joy B.

    A beautiful spot to enjoy the sunset, drink I. Hand looking out at the waves crashing on the beach ! We both got the grouper sandwich with fries. *ask for no salt when you order because I had to wipe off every single French fry before I ate it. They were SO SALTY ! The grouper sandwich was good. It comes with banana pepper " slaw " which there was no slaw at all. It's just banana peppers and some green peppers. I don't care for either , so I took those off. I asked for a side of their tartar sauce because the sandwich was a little dry. There's tartar sauce is delicious. If I find myself back here again, I would get the grouper sandwich with just lettuce and tomato and tartar sauce. It's a casual beautiful spot if you want to be outside with an ocean view.

    Sandwich
    M J.

    Yummy!!! Everyone was so nice. Service was great. Very cute. Love that it was on the beach. Everything we eat was delicious!!! The only thing I would change is the fish sandwich have some sauce with it because it was a little dry and also cut up the fish for the taco They just give you a big piece of fish with a tortilla shell. I'll definitely come back!'

    Beachfront open air bar and grill dining with exceptional service! You can't get better than that! Our food was really tasty and I just can't give enough praise for the amazing and friendly service. Our food was fresh and flavorful. Very easygoing vibe and super casual. Definitely recommend!

    Nice spot, food is tasty but a little expensive but what can you say we're at the Ritz! Service is SO friendly that was awesome. The real perk of this spot is the outdoor seatinf which is perfect for catching the sunset! Loved it.

    Caesar salad
    Alyssa M.

    The food and drinks and gumbo limbo are great! One of the best pina coladas I've ever had! Tasted real and not like all the artificial slushie crap. They have recyclable tin cups so you can order and bring drinks down on the beach. The boxes for the food are also compostable too! We brought our food and drinks to beach. The salmon blt was very tasty, the piece of salmon was very big! The side salad was super fresh and plentiful. The Caesar salad has a delicious dressing that tastes homemade! It also has sundried tomatoes in it and really tasty croutons with shredded cheese. They also have a kids menu which is convenient. Prices are a bit high but that's to be expected at the Ritz and on the beach. Staff were all very friendly and accommodating. Definitely will be back when visiting Vanderbilt Beach!

    Tacos blackened
    Jen S.

    Excellent service (thanks Alex)!!! Birman is a wonderful drink. Catch of the day was grouper so I had the fish tacos, ordered it blackened. Sooo good. Was a chilly day but the heaters work great. Can't beat the view!

    Dress code for Gumbo Limbo?

    Very casual. I'm sure you need shoes and shirts, but that's about all! We felt dressed up in sundresses!

    Do they take reservations? Or is this walk ins only?

    Unfortunately, walk in only. Get there before 5 to get a table before sunset. People tend to stay at their table until sunset even if they've finished eating

    What days of the week, and what time is happy hour?

    What are the happy hour specials?

    They tend to be different every day, please give them a call. They're more than happy to give you a detailed daily special menu. Do try to get there before sunset, it's trully a treat to experience!

No joke, I'm thinking it's one of the best I've tried and I've tried a lot. I had the lobster roll, which was a cold roll, stuffed full of lobster. My husband had the shrimp and lobster Mac and cheese, and my son got the hogfish. All of our dinners were great. The hog fish was light and buttery, the green beans were amazing and didn't taste like an oversight, and the Mac and cheese was full of shrimp and lobster and not heavy.

With its waterfront location, lively atmosphere, and boats pulling right up to the dock, it delivers exactly the kind of Southwest Florida experience visitors are hoping to find. What keeps us coming back, however, is the food. Unlike many waterfront tourist spots that rely solely on the view, Coconut Jack's consistently serves excellent food and drinks. The shrimp basket is a favorite, the mahi tacos are packed with flavor, and both the grouper entrée and grouper sandwich are outstanding. Even the burgers are surprisingly good. One standout that deserves special mention is the New England clam chowder, which is absolutely top shelf and among the best you'll find in the area.

Well, it came out well prepared overall it really lacked any sort of flavor and is way over priced for the quality they offer. The other thing that was not so great was the service. Our server was polite but really was not friendly or attentive. We were there mid afternoon so it was pretty empty. Last thing to know is parking is valet only. It is free bit of course you may want to have cash for a tip. Overall, we will be going back for the atmosphere in the drinks, but I think we'll find other places for dinner or lunch

    A Hidden Gem in Downtown Naples -- Don't Sleep on This Place!…read more I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and the place was buzzing -- the outside patio was at full capacity. I asked for a seat at the bar, and even though space is very limited, the staff went above and beyond to find me one. That kind of effort on a packed afternoon says a lot about this team. The bartender was phenomenal -- attentive, warm, and somehow managed to make every single person at that busy bar feel like they were the only guest in the restaurant. The whole staff carried that same energy. They were also wonderfully descriptive about the daily specials and menu offerings, which made ordering a pleasure rather than a guessing game. I decided to try the crab cake, and I'm so glad I did. I grew up on the East Coast eating crab, and I've had my fair share -- I've long held that Phillips in Maryland made the gold standard. I am happy to report that Captain & Crew has dethroned them in my book. This crab cake was pure lump crab meat, not overpowered by fillers or seasoning. You could actually taste the crab. The accompaniments they served alongside it elevated the whole dish even further. Thoroughly impressed. The wine pairings were equally well-curated. I took the staff's recommendations and they absolutely nailed it. A heads-up for first-timers: parking is the one small challenge. There's no convenient lot right there, so you may need to use a parking garage and walk over. Honestly? Embrace it. If you're already in Downtown Naples, it's a beautiful stroll that perfectly sets the mood before you arrive. Captain & Crew is a true hidden gem. Many people come for the fresh seafood market, but don't overlook the restaurant side -- it's absolutely worth your time. Highly recommend.
