    Key lime pie
    Gina W.

    Another fantastic meal at Mr. Big Fish on Friday, May 29! We brought a large group of family visiting from out of town, and despite our party size, we were seated promptly. This has become an annual tradition whenever family is in town, and it's also one of our favorite places to visit throughout the year. Henri once again delivered exceptional service. He's knowledgeable, attentive without being intrusive, and his recommendations are always spot-on. It's clear he takes pride in making sure every guest has a great dining experience. Every dish that arrived at our table was prepared perfectly and full of flavor. One of the things we love most about Mr. Big Fish is the consistency--we've tried a variety of menu items over the years and have yet to be disappointed. Whether you're craving fresh seafood, perfectly prepared fish, flavorful pasta dishes, or a delicious lobster dinner (a Friday special), you really can't go wrong. It's easy to see why we keep coming back year after year. We're already looking forward to our next visit!

    Food is absolutely incredible!! The jumbo shrimp blackened are amazing!!!! The Caesar salad is the best I have ever eaten! And then onion rings delicious! Service outstanding from start to finish.

    Under seasoned. Everything. Sweet potato fries, buttered haddock, sautéed swordfish, clam sauce pasta, broccoli. Probably fitting for some older patrons, but not for me. The lemon butter sauce was the saving grace for the two fish filets. The blackened mahi mahi had exceptional flavor, but more akin to Cajun than the typical black pepper forward experience. Great portions, good rice, well-cooked vegetables. Great citrus vinaigrette for small house salad. Great commitment to nautical theme throughout dining room. HIGHLIGHT: Nick was one of the funniest, sweetest, and respectful servers I've ever had... anywhere. He truly elevated our experience and made it a memorable night as we celebrated a graduation. He was beyond helpful and accommodating.

    We had my favorite waitress of all time Jaime! She has it going and had a great experience! So good it made our night! Gives you some things to think about on the menu. The fish here is so fresh! I love my mojitos! Cesar salad was very good and we finished up with a carrot cake! It was huge but ate it all! Place was packed and I can see why! Place is very clean! This is the place if you want fresh fish and ask for Jaime!

    A local fave. Busy and bustling with seaside decor. The fresh Warm bread basket pleases all. Lobster bisque is on point. Linguini with clams were delicious. The Caesar salad was ok, very lightly dressed and not creamy. Kids chicken fingers were burnt so they brought out another serving and they weren't much better. Chicken was very tough. Chocolate cake desert was a giant slice, like enough for four people and it was pretty good. Have been here a few times and enjoyed most things.

    Lobster special.

    We had a great meal for our anniversary prior to a sunset cruise. I had the lobster tail, which was perfectly cooked and a generous size for $39 (special). Hubby had the sautéd black grouper, which was also excellent. The au gratin potatoes were the best I've ever had--very creamy and delicious. Our server Henry was wonderful--friendly and efficient. Love the nautical decor. Highly recommended this fun and delicious restaurant!

    Absolute go to, hands down, no questions! Make a reservation in advance and GO EARLY especially in season. The variety of fresh fish available and options for preparing are perfect. I had the Parmesan Encrusted Red Snapper. The salad and Calarmari were perfect, fresh, and delicious. My go to for fresh fish! Love!!

    Main menu including kid's, soups, cold apps, and starters.

    Although there has been just a sight increase in prices with some items removed and some added, the quality of service, food, and ambiance remain the same. The staff I deal with are always a pleasure! During season, you'll often find it hard to find a spot at the bar for happy hour, so plan accordingly

    Enjoyed our first visit to Mr. Big Fish and our waiter Henry was friendly, attentive and helpful with recommendations. We had both of the fish specials black grouper and branzino both blackened with potato augratin, broccoli and a side salad. The atmosphere was relaxed with fresh bread, great drinks and Happy Hour specials.

    First & not the last time here. I wanted the northern walleye but they were out of it so I got the Parmesan crusted trout, wow wow wow it was so good. I opted for the cauliflower au gratin & sautéed spinach, I brought home 1/2 of my fish because it was 1/2 of a very large trout. I also got a side salad with my entree. Hub had the fish & chips & loved it. Ambience is very nice, will for sure return!

    Au gratin potatoes
    Jason R.

    Wow what an amazing dinner! First off the service was great and quick. The place was busy but everything came out super quick. Ordered the red grouper and had it blackened. Whatever seasoning they use when they blacken it is incredibly delicious. I got it with steamed broccoli and some of the best au gratin potatoes I've ever had. Will be coming back again and again! Definitely one of my top 5 restaurants that I've tried in the area.

I parked near their walkway sign and once I ventured through, it's such a lovely walk up to the restaurant with a bridge over water with fountains and tons of blooms everywhere. Once inside, I was met with a bright, crisp dining room that was clean and comfortable. We started with cocktails and I got their version of a Manhattan, the hog-hattan. It's made with Whistlepig 6 year and came out on the rocks. Manhattans not served up are kinda a pet peeve of mine--but this one? Truly and honestly one of the best Manhattans of my life. The server did not steer me wrong. It was exquisite. For my dinner, my dining companion and I opted for a deal they had that allowed you a starter and main for a reasonable price. I got the kale salad for my starter which was bursting with flavor--chopped kale, brussels sprouts, butternut squash, chevre, and a bright citrus-y vinaigrette--what's not to love? For my main, I got their Mahi Mahi which was also perfectly executed. It was served over a bed of rice and asparagus with chopped mango and a sauce (not sure what kind but balanced the dish perfectly) on top. I would have a hard time not ordering this dish again. It was craveable. Our server was lovely and provided wonderful recommendations for both myself and my dining companion. No notes! Get to it!

I asked for her recommendations and I went with the hogfish sandwich. Luckily, she told me I could get it grilled and blackened instead of fried. I could tell they knew how to cook fish because it came out perfectly. Most would probably think it was undercooked, but that's how fish should be cooked. I appreciated this attention to detail and thought it was delicious.

But for the service. It really should be 1.5 stars but this system doesn't allow that. Let me explain. Let's start with the appetizers. Best thing on the menu was the beet salad and goat cheese. Probably the best part of the entire meal and its presentation was fantastic. Followed by the clam chowder. Lobster bisque was pretty bad as was the ceasar salad. Onto the main items. PRIME RIB. Many ordered this but not one person liked or finished theirs. In some cases overly fatty and in others the meat was super chewy and barely flavorful. Most of prime rib from all guests was taken home to feed to the dogs. Fish was a tri-tip, overly salty but also undercooked. Desserts - Have t say the donuts were the clear winner. Key Lime Pie had a gross drizzle of raspberry sauce (While do so many restaurants do this?). Creme de pot, so sweet that your teeth hurt from eating it. Look, if you are going to charge high prices and have a prix fix menu for a special occasion like mother's day or other, then THAT menu of items better be spot on and near perfect.

    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.

    I'm obsessed with this restaurant. I have been 3 times since last month and just made another…read morereservation for this upcoming week. I chose it as my spot to celebrate my baptism too. Everyone was very happy with their food. The cesar salad is very good. They put a lot of a cheese on it, which is awesome. I love cheese. I have only had the triggerfish and it is an amazing dish. The fish is not fishy at all. It is meaty but light and flaky. They give a good sized portion. The pimento cheese is to die for. I can't believe how much of it I ate on my last visit. Then we have the key lime pie. Wow. Double wow. It has a burnt sugar topping similar to creme brulee. The filling is light and tart. The pie ties with Sweet Melissas. The interior is super cute. I love the nautical colors. They have a nice bar too. Hurry up and try it. You won't be disappointed.

    We stopped by Syren Oyster & Cocktail Bar looking for a relaxed dinner and really enjoyed the patio…read moreon a beautiful evening. The hosts were welcoming, and we were seated immediately. Service started a little slowly--we didn't meet our server for about 15 minutes, although another team member quickly brought us water and drinks. Once our server arrived, he was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. It seemed like he may have been covering several tables that evening, so we completely understood. Our meal ended up taking about 90 minutes after reservation, which was longer than we expected for a quick dinner. We shared two dozen oysters, king crab legs, the miso butterfish, and cocktail.. The oysters were fresh, though we had slightly higher expectations. The king crab was easily the standout of the meal. The miso butterfish was well prepared but a bit heavy on the sauce--I think a touch of acidity and a side of vegetables would have balanced it nicely, something to consider. Between the waterfront breeze, friendly hosts, and our server's hospitality, we still had an enjoyable evening. It may have simply been a busy night for the service team. We'd gladly give Syren another try.

    Amazing service and delicious food…read more My friends and I went to The Local before a movie at the Regal movie theater nearby. We were seated in a comfortable booth, and the overall ambiance was so lovely with high ceilings. We got there in time to enjoy a happy hour dinner menu. I ordered the Pork Ragu over Gnocchi as featured on "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives." It was so yummy! And the portion was very generous. Service was also very friendly and helpful. We had a great server. I'll definitely return when I'm back in the area.

    Tried out this farm to table spot and walked away with a solid impression overall…read more I went with the In House Smoked Turkey Sandwich from their lunch special at $19.50. Naturally smoked turkey with brie, pesto mayo, and tomato jam on gluten free bread, served with a fresh Caesar salad. Pretty good sandwich. The turkey was flavorful, the bread held up nicely, and the salad was crisp with a good coating of parmesan. Decent value for what you get. My wife ordered the fish tacos, which came with a side salad topped with blue cheese crumbles and red onion. The presentation looked great with nice char on the fish, fresh pico, and shredded cabbage piled high. But the execution fell short. The fish itself was chewy and not very tender. That's a problem when fish tacos are one of your popular dishes. On the bright side, our waitress was nice and attentive. No complaints on the service front. The cozy atmosphere lives up to the farm to table vibe they're going for. The Verdict: The Local delivers a decent lunch with good service and fresh ingredients. My smoked turkey sandwich hit the spot, but those fish tacos need work. Four stars for a solid overall experience, but maybe skip the tacos next time.
