    Adult Grilled Cheese
    Meredith C.

    Gorgeous views!! If you are a member of Pelican Bay I would highly recommend this spot. You are right on the beach and everyone in my group enjoyed their meals. Don't ask for the blue drink that others talked about on Yelp. They no longer offer it. Our personal favs--the onion rings and the adult grilled cheese. Bon appetite!

    We stopped in for an early dinner, with now expectations. Bar at 4 PM was a little busy and the…read moredinning area was much quieter which was because it was so early. Rachel was our server made some wonderful suggestions and we started with The Grilled California Artichokes, with an aioli. Followed by their version of Deviled Eggs and sugar bacon with the most amazing bacon! I ordered the Shangra La roll and Firecracker Sushi roll. My wife ordered the cederwood planned salmon with a side of crispy Brussels sprouts. So during our service there was a shift change and Anelia became our server. first time I had been to a fine dinning establishment where that occurred, But she came over and introduced her self and it worked out fine and seamless. Our food came with a nice presentation, The Firecracker rolls were very nice a little heavy on the avocado as opposed to the Spicy tuna on top. The second roll was the crazy Tuna, the fish was very fresh and tasty. The Salmon was cooked nicely and the spinach was well cooked to perfection. The Crispy Brussels sprouts were not crispy but tasty. The Filet mignon Cooked medium was perfect for our birthday boy and the crab cake was all lump meat. Nice relaxing fine dining with a busy bar!

    I almost deployed my calibrated decibel-detection device tonight, complete with weighted A-scale…read morereadings and ambient baseline controls but then I remembered some fragile soul once reviewed BrickTop's as "too loud," with HIS OWN decibel device so I decided to spare the room the science experiment. Tragic. Food and drinks? Excellent across the board. French dip was on point, burger either an over easy egg snd multiple apps disappeared quickly, baked potato done right, and the espresso martinis were dangerously good. Major shout-out to Ashley behind the bar -- absolute pro -- though honestly the entire bar staff deserves applause. Watching the bartenders run the room is like watching a choreographed ballet. They somehow keep a mental spreadsheet of the waitlist, open seats, timing, and guest flow, seamlessly slotting people in without chaos or drama. It's impressive, calm, and clearly run by people who know exactly what they're doing. Now, to the inevitable dog commentary: yes, restaurants have rules. Yes, health codes exist. And no, a dog in a baby stroller is not a service animal. That stroller should be reserved for, stay with me here, babies. Leave your dog at home for two hours. It will survive. So will you. I will happily return to any restaurant that enforces Collier County health code, serves great food and drinks, and employs a staff that runs the room with confidence and competence. BrickTop's checks every box.

    Another great visit to Backyard Fire Grill--this place just doesn't miss…read more Stopped in with my wife for a low-key evening, grabbed some wings and a couple of cold beers. Simple? Sure. But sometimes simple done right is all you need. The wings were on point, the beers were cold, and the vibes were immaculate. Great music, laid-back atmosphere, the kind of spot where you walk in stressed and walk out smiling. And then there's Tina. She waited on us again, and honestly, she's a big part of why we keep coming back. Always awesome, always on top of it, makes you feel like a regular even if you're not. Good service elevates a good meal into a great experience, and Tina delivers every time. Here's my only complaint: I wish there was one closer to Fort Myers. We'd be here all the time if it wasn't a trek. And honestly? This concept would crush it as a larger restaurant with a full bar. Palm Beach Boulevard is seriously lacking in quality restaurant options, Backyard Fire Grill would absolutely dominate that area. Just putting that out into the universe. Someone make it happen. The Verdict: Wings, beers, great vibes, and Tina taking care of us, another five-star visit to Backyard Fire Grill. This place has the formula dialed in. Now expand it so we don't have to drive so far. Please and thank you.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    We ate here Wednesday night and it is by far the best meal we have had…read more We sat outside on the patio with a great view of the water and we could hear the music at Celebration Park. Our server Mike, did an excellent job taking care of us. We started off with a couple cocktails. I had an Old Fashioned and my wife had the Not Bogged Down. For dinner I had the Chorizo Encrusted Red Snapper and my wife had one of the specials which was the Tripletail. She said it was the best seafood dish she has ever had. For dessert, we split the special Crème Brûlée topped with diced fruit. We enjoyed the dessert so much, we purchased one for a sweet family of four sitting next to us. Our server Mike and the owner, Barry, helped make that happen and we appreciate it.

    Service was excellent. Ambiance was perfect…read more And the cocktails were expert level. I wish I lived in Naples so I could visit here once a week until I have tried all their cocktails. Craft cocktails with homemade syrups, tinctures, house infused spirits, house blend vermouth, house blend bitters. Whoever runs their drinks program is paying attention & serving up delicious & unique drinks. It's becoming more rare to visit a restaurant that feels like someone's singular vision for a neighborhood or community (instead of a corporate venture). This place is unique & elegant but approachable & welcoming. Highly recommend.

    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.

Their menu is obviously not as extensive; however, if you are in need of a quick bite, Goldies Express is a well-oiled machine. Diane is a pro at her game. She knows how to balance the friendly with the quick and efficient service that caters to her Pelican Bay customers. All the regulars are greeted by name, just as they would at the restaurant. I can't believe it's taken me this long to go this location. My morning routine definitely needs to take a detour from now on. They have a great set up in the main lobby of the Wells Fargo Bank building and they have an assortment of ready-to-go items such as yogurt parfait, tuna salad, chicken salad, hummus plate, various salads and fresh sides. Of course you can order off the hot grill for any of their to-die-for sandwiches, and they always have a daily special going on. I'll continue to update with more pictures when I find a suitable time to not be in a conveyor belt situation during the lunch rush! Ps. The phone number listed is used to call ahead orders...briiilliant.

Pretty good burger. For those who like to drink under a thatched roof outside, there is a tikki hut. The establishment's motif is all over the map. But let's just stay with the island theme in Naples, FL. Would I go back again? I don't know, I have had this book marked, and I have eaten at another of their establishments, Sonny's. They do not have the same menu. I like that.

The drinks were creative and tasty, and while the wine list is short, it is very well curated. We started with the octopus, the bread and butter, and the mushrooms as appetizers. All three were excellent, but the octopus was the clear standout. I had never seen it served in that particular style before. It was a completely new preparation for me and absolutely delicious. The bread and butter was also finger licking good. For my main course, I ordered the cod gnocchi. I am still thinking about this dish three days later because the flavors and textures were so unusual and memorable. To finish the meal, we shared the chocolate tart and the tiramisu bread pudding. Both were delicious, though they did not feel quite as uniquely extraordinary as every other bite and sip we had throughout the night. One of our party members is gluten and dairy free, and our waitress was incredibly helpful in navigating the menu for her. She was thrilled with the shrimp from the daily specials menu. My only minor critique is that I wish they had a dessert option that would have worked for her dietary restrictions. Overall, this was a fantastic meal with top tier service.

The service was friendly throughout the meal, but everything moved surprisingly slowly, from ordering to receiving the food. We tried the salad, burger, and lamb kebabs. The salad and burger were decent but nothing particularly memorable. The lamb kebabs were unfortunately the biggest disappointment of the meal. They were quite salty and the meat was much tougher than expected, making them difficult to enjoy. Overall, the restaurant makes a good first impression with its ambiance and welcoming service, but the food did not quite match the setting. While the experience wasn't terrible, I'm not sure there was enough to make me eager for a second visit.
