Supposed to be a $14.99 chicken finger basket...
Kenn M.

This was our first time at a Rib City and we had high expectations based off of some recommendations we had. It is also our LAST trip to a Rib City. We were greeted and sat quickly. Our drink order was taken and promptly delivered. Off to a great start. We got a drink refill before anyone cane to take our food order...about 20 minutes had passed and we about to leave. Order was finally taken. Appetizer came. Food came. The salad was forgotten and came after the food. Our inattentive waitress, Kaylee, was often nowhere to be found. As for the food...several issues here. The ranch dressing was so watered down and flavorless, it was awful. Not even a hint of garlic or ranch seasoning. The "chicken finger basket" was a HUGE disappointment. They had the nerve to charge $14.99 for what barely amounted to a kids meal. The "tenders" were not much more than large popcorn chicken and there was barely a breaded coating...no crunch and no flavor. The Mac-n-cheese was nothing more than microwaved Velveeta from a box. As a side, I "upgraded" to the street corn and paid $2.50 extra for a baby sized serving of corn with a hint of mayonnaise and a splash of cayenne seasoning. Neither of us finished our meal, it was such a let down. We left, highly dissatisfied and went next door to the Pubiix deli to pick up some REAL chicken fingers and have satisfying meal.

Coconut Cream Pie to go. Yuck.

We waited 15 minutes for Coconut Cream Pie to go. It looks like someone ate most of it before serving it. This is disgusting. $8.25

My husband's pulled pork sandwich with corn and beans. (From first visit.)
Karen T.

We've visited this location twice. The first visit was really good. We were seated promptly and service fine. We ordered pulled pork sandwiches. The sandwiches were very good. Our sides were fresh and very good quality. The corn cobette was warm and perfectly cooked. The tomato slices were vibrant and had wonderful rich flavor. The baked beans tasted great. The second visit just wasn't the same. We stood in the doorway for a bit waiting for someone to seat us. While waiting, we observed the carpet was very dirty with food particles and other debris. We ordered pulled pork sandwiches again. The sandwiches were good. However, our sides were NOT the same. The corn cobette was overcooked and mushy. The tomato slices were lacking color and very mealy. My husband's baked beans were overly thick. We'll go back at some point and I hope to update this review with a higher rating. However, until then, they've earned 3 stars.

The food poisoning was nice. I had the brisket that may or may not have been around for a few days, and now I feel like absolute death.

I had the chicken pot pie which was yummy. We shared an old fashion drink. Staff is friendly and well informed of their menu. The decor was comfortable and interesting. Thank you Fancy's for a great evenings

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.

While visiting Fort Meyers for the first time, it was recommended that we go to Buckingham Farms…read morefor breakfast. We were excited to try it based on their website, reviews, and the recommendation. Upon entering you can pick up a menu or look at the menu board. There is no table service. Once you place your order you can sit down at a table and wait for your pager to go off. When your pager goes off you have to go to the back of the restaurant to get your utensils. The utensils are plastic that are dispensed. The coffee cups are made of Styrofoam, surprising since this is promoted as a"farm to table" restaurant. You can dispense your own coffee and pick up non refrigerated packaged creamers. No fresh milk or creamer offered. Again surprising. My wife asked a food preparer if she could have some fresh milk for her coffee. It was provided in a plastic container. I ordered an egg, cheese, and bacon on a biscuit. I didn't see any other type of bread offered. My wife ordered the waffle making a point for it to be prepared plain. Our pagers went off and we went to pick up our food. The waffles my wife ordered plain had some kind of cream on it. The server said she didn't see any note about it being prepared plain. She took it back to remake it and brought it out to our table. The coffee was very weak and not very good. My wife threw hers out. Her waffle was tasteless. She took a couple of bites and threw it out as well. My biscuit sandwich was also very disappointing. The biscuit was dry and hard, the texture of the bacon was like shoe leather. We could not understand why this restaurant was as busy as it was. The only thing we could think of, was that it's the only place around. We left and drove 20 minutes to a Bakery/Cafe where they served good coffee, bread, and pastries.

Point 57 Kitchen and Cocktails stands out among the plethora of what I call "semi-upscale"…read morerestaurants which dot the eighth largest city in Florida. Dressed as a mini version of a Bahama Breeze restaurant, 57 hits on all cylinders. From scrumptious food, tasty drinks to staff that actually provides service that's "just right." Observant, friendly, fun, welcoming and attentive. My wife and I had the $20 Cape Royal Burger. A delicious 1/2 lb. Black Angus beef, with American cheese, lettuce, pickles, and an included order of P57 fries which are fantastic! One of our friends enjoyed the $20 Grilled Shrimp Tacos which included 3 tortillas, with all the fixings and an order of the P57 fries. She liked it. Her husband started with an order of $22 Maryland Crab Cakes..FULL of crab! He loved them and followed with Shrimp and Pasta ($Unknown), ate it all, said it was great and was impressed with the bread. "It looked hard, but was nice and soft." Authors note: This was our first visit to Point 57, we had glanced at the lunch menu on-line. Both our friends and ourselves had a bit of sticker shock when we sat down and saw the menu Dinner prices. That is NOT a negative, it's a notification. The one big "REALLY!?" for me was the $27 "Starter" Lobster Mac and Cheese. It's a dish I've enjoyed at many great restaurants and had to pass because of the price. With that said, the food quality and service MATCH the price. And I highly recommend Point 57.

When I saw that this restaurant was located on Del Prado, I should have known better. The reviews…read moreand website of Point 57 portray a classy dining experience. What I endured was something entirely different. We were a party of four, attending for an early weekend dinner. I fully expected a moderately upscale experience; what I endured was an absolutely freezing cold, nearly empty dining room that basically looked like an out-of-date Denny's. Besides the tired, dated decor, I was horrifically uncomfortable because of the temperature. I have experienced this several times in lower end restaurants - the staff keep the temperature at a level THEY find comfortable. Besides the shock of the terrible dining room, this entirely destroyed the dining experience. While our waitress was polite enough, she allowed the beverage of one of my guests to run out. This is unacceptable for a restaurant trying to draw a regular, more upscale clientele. The rest of the staff seemed essentially untrained and did not work as a team. I saw one person on staff with their fingers in their mouth on the dining room floor. The dated bar was filled with what looked like regulars. I didn't bother with a cocktail once I saw the dining room. I'd say I made a smart choice. The food was decent, but was entirely outweighed by everything else at this facility. This is the only reason I'm giving two stars. I didn't have the stomach to check out the restrooms. Ultimately, I'd say Point 57 is probably decent competition for Red Lobster or Applebee's. Personally, I will stick with Stone's Throw restaurant elsewhere in the Cape. Point 57 management should travel there; they might learn something.

Maybe 10 nuggets of grouper, battered or breaded, then fried to perfection, tossed in their boom sauce and served with a very flavorful jasmine rice. The boom sauce is very similar to a Thai sweet chili sauce - a little sweet with maybe a touch of heat. An app that eats like a meal. Great for a lighter appetite. On yet another visit, and on several more visits, I had the All Day - Every Day Fish and Chips Summer Special ($12.99). Terrific! A generous filet of pollack, lightly coated with beer batter, fried to perfection, served with their incredible fries and pineapple cole slaw. I thoroughly enjoy this meal and it is a great value.

They have daily specials but don't have them listed/advertised. They had a full list of daily…read morespecials but not the deal of the day. Luckily our server told us about the Monday BOGO clam chowder, so we gave it a try. Had a lil spice/kick to it. Tasted decent but def not my favorite. So then I went on their website while sitting at the table and saw the $14.99 lobster roll special. Glad it was that price and not the full price. I got the cold Lobster roll and it was just okay, it was lacking flavor. Triple tail tacos were decent but also felt like it could use a little more seasoning. The coconut rice ended up being our favorite part of the meal. The inside of the place was packed at 6:45pm on a Monday. So we sat outside and had great service. If you go, check their website for the daily deals.
