While staying in sanibel i was in the mood for something new. We were fairly walking distance from…read moreMudbugs and decided to grab a bite here. We were seated after 5 minutes in the main floor with a great view of the performer who was singing that night. As we were seated we were greeted by the sweetest server ever Amber. Let me tell you i have had a good handful of great servers but she was amazing. Super informative, sweet and with so much happy aura to her. I was very much overwhelmed with the menu and decided on getting boudin balls and conch fritters for appetizers. So flavorful! The sauce on the side was the perfect combination too. i had never had boudin balls before, now i am a fan. The conch fritters were perfection!!!!! So crispy and packed with conch inside. As for entree the Chicken & Andouille Sausage Gumbo was just the amount of spicy i liked. I love making gumbo at home and this has officially beat my own gumbo. My partner ordered the etouffee... man he thought he could handle heat but this was a new level for him. It was nice and thick the etouffee. Even though it was spicy to him....he said the flavor was all there... very good and he wasn't going to quit on it and finished it completely. For desert we OF COURSE got the Beignets! We were so stuffed but would definitely hate ourselves of we didn't order some. We got the caramel on the side and let me tell you im still dreaming of how good they were. Literally melted in my mouth. This spot is a 10/10. Food, service and vibes. If you want a taste of New Orleans but don't want to venture too far out... Mudbugs is definitely the place to go

My brother ordered the hot special sauce, which looked brighter than mine, but he said it wasn't spicy at all. My shrimp were also very chewy. Overall, it was a good experience, and the service was great, but unfortunately, the food just wasn't worth the price for us.

I ordered the oysters. Darn fine oysters. For my main, I ordered their Gumbo. The Gumbo is unusual in that there was no shrimp or fish, just sausage. It was delicious. Mrs. K. ordered a fish sandwich; she did not eat it. She said it had an extreme fishy taste. I was asked to taste it; I declined. I did smell it; it smelled fishy. Cod should not present a problem.

Good place to grab some yummy seafood in Fort Myers…read more My friend lives in Punta Gorda, and last year when I visited, she took me here. After that visit, we decided it would be a must for my yearly visits. The restaurant is in a shopping center/strip mall with a variety of other restaurants and shops. The parking lot is shared with the other businesses, so even if you don't find a spot right in front, there's still plenty of parking available. I've been there during lunch on a weekday as well as during the weekend. When we went on the weekend, it was busier, but we were still seated quickly. They have a great system and move with ease. There's a variety of appetizers, pre-selected seafood boils, fried seafood options, and a build-your-own boil option. For all of the boils, you also have options for seasonings as well as spice level. We always choose the Juicy Special for seasonings, which is all of the options combined, and Medium spice level. I like spice, but not so much that I can't taste my food, so it's perfect! All of the boils also come with potato and corn. My only complaint was that on my last visit there were only 2 small potatoes, but it didn't ruin the experience; I just would've liked a little more potatoes. I'll be back when I visit my friend next year!

I should have listened to the other reviews...they were right on!…read more The food was all ala cart. Nothing comes with your meal. And to purchase sides it's a shareable side. So you have to ask people at your table if they'll go in to get the side you want. Because the "side" was such a large portion. Disappointing. This should be changed immediately. I had the country fried steak. It was ok. Gravy stated white peppercorn gravy. It was not white. But it tasted ok. Much better than the gravy that came on the potatoes. It was NOT good. My husband had the chicken and waffles. He liked it. Our other party had pot roast and they said the seasoning was a very unusual flavor. Not tasty. Potatoes and carrots were not cooked throughout. Liver and onions were good. The corn bread was good. Our server, Luke was cordial however it appeared that we irritated him. I caught him talking about us to another server and the cook as they all turned and looked us. Maybe I'm reading into it but based on other reviews I read I think they were being negative about our group. ‍ Anyway I would not recommend this restaurant and I'm sorry I didn't listen to the other reviews. Yelp never steers me wrong.

Keep out you Eagles fans - find your own crab place! The food is excellent. Very fresh, and delicious. Large amounts of garlic and butter. If you're not a fan - then it's not for you. I'm going to warn you, because they are so busy (lots of takeout) the wait time is long. And very limited seating with only 4 picinic style tables in the back. Also know, if you're going to eat crabs - perpare to get messy. Don't wear your sunday best. Also the AC isn't the best - probably could spend a few extra dollars on that. I had the Jerry Jones, but next time I'm going to try the Crusty Crab. My daughter had the Pops Special. Both were excellent. Looking forward to coming back.

She found Leroy's Southern Kitchen & Bar in Punta Gorda, and let me tell you this place isn't a restaurant it's a whole Saturday night experience! I walked in thinking there had to be a festival, birthday party, or somebody famous in town. Nope! That's just how they roll every Saturday. Live music, people dancing, everyone smiling I started wondering if they slipped happiness into the sweet tea. Now the wife ordered the Nevermind Pressed Burger with extra cheese and black coffee steak sauce. NEVERMIND?? More like Never mind my diet! One bite then another then another and suddenly her plate looked like the dishwasher had already been there. The burger was cooked perfectly, juicy, cheesy, and that steak sauce should be illegal in at least 12 states. Meanwhile, I ordered the 10 oz. Skirt Steak with jasmine rice, carrots, green onions, and their house made Asian marinade. Listen whoever made that sauce I need the recipe, your autograph, and your retirement plan. I was this close to asking for a to go cup so I could pour it on my cereal tomorrow morning. Mama mia that steak disappeared faster than my paycheck after my wife says, Let's just stop at one more store. Then dessert happened. We saw our neighbors order the homemade Banana Nilla Pudding special. My wife looked at me with that look that says, We're getting one. Fellas you already know that's not a suggestion. Well she got one. I got exactly three bites. THREE! ‍ By the time I looked back, the jar was cleaner than the windows at a car wash. Dear Lord now I understand why my doctor keeps telling me to watch my sugar. That pudding almost had me scheduling my next A1C appointment from the table. The live band had me singing songs from back in the day don't ask which ones. Some of y'all are detectives and I'm not giving away my age! And a huge shout-out to Athena! She knew that menu like she wrote it herself. Friendly, funny, attentive she made us feel like regulars even though it was our first visit. So thank you, Uncle Leroy! Between the food, the music, the atmosphere, and my wife stealing 97% of the dessert, this was the perfect way to end an unforgettable Father's Day getaway. Five stars. Come hungry leave happy and if you order the Banana Nilla Pudding, order TWO. One for your wife and one that you hide under the table. Trust me.
