So happy to have found this place for lunch. Perfect location to watch birds fishing and enjoy the weather. The food was excellent and so was the service. You order at the counter and they will bring you food to the tiki hut overlooking the water. We ordered a Philly, Rueben, burger and fries. Everyone loved their food. My favorite was the Philly. The fries were huge and were so incredibly tasty. I heard the owner might be opening a restaurant soon. Hoping to check it out or return here next time I visit Pine Island !

We wanted to explore Pine Island and came across their excellent Google reviews. As we were driving in, I began to worry that the hours listed on Google for their location were incorrect. But we went all the way to the end of the dark Marina tonight, and there it was! We ordered the Crabby fries, the Smashburger in the Pastrami Reuben. One of the reasons I think their food is so delicious is that they make many items in-house, such as the amazing queso that came with the fries (which might have been the best fries I've ever had- no exaggeration). They prepare the fries in a unique way that doesn't involve deep-frying them, unlike most places. They also smoke their pastrami, and the Pastrami Reuben sandwich was also delicious. We also both enjoyed the Smashburger. An upgrade to bun might be worthwhile, but it was damn tasty. We also had a lovely chat with one of the managers?, Matthew. He was super knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the restaurant. It was dark when we went, but I'm sure it's a beautiful view of the water and the marina during the day. We'll be back to try the wings and some other menu items. Visit them soon, you won't be disappointed!

Driving through the lazy town of Bokeelia, was this Cuban family owned bakery & coffe shop. Very…read morecozy inside with retro style chairs. Definitely felt a sense of old town Cuba with photos plastered on the walls. Met with the barista who made me a cortadito from the stainless steel expresso machine. The coffee was strong and added sugar from the kiosk. The oversized chocolate eclairs and muffins were inviting, but we were on our way to lunch in Fort Myers. The owner introduced himself and had a brief discussion. The back patio had a wooden bar top with stools and a lacquered dominoes table across from a large Cositas food truck for catering. The gender neutral bathroom was clean with large tile flooring and a circle wall mirror with a black rim.

They have tables indoors and out, as well as several different menus. At the first visit we had delicious, succulent Cuban sandwiches and coffees: Iced caramel macchiato for me and Cuban coffee for hubby. The next day we got delicious pastries as a hostess gift for family we were visiting. They had all flavors: guava, coconut, chocolate, vanilla, etc. Everything was delicious without being overly sweet. On our third visit we had Cuban breakfast sandwiches (egg, ham & cheese on Cuban bread) and more of their delicious coffee. This is one restaurant we'll miss upon returning home.

That was nice because there was an easy parking space in their lot for me. Woot, already off to a good start. Super friendly lady working the register (I love being called, "Honey"!) took my order and explained that beers are only sold "to go" due to licensing requirements. Fine by me, I took my beer and left... sitting at the table out front to watch the traffic go past. A few minutes later, the cook/chef brought out my dinner. A portion of brisket and a thick slice of "cheese-stuffed meatloaf" with cucumber salad and cole slaw. Brisket was excellent. Meatloaf was amazing (and quite spicy!). Cole slaw was meh. Cucumber salad was great. It's not a huge portion of food but it was completely enjoyable. This place probably gets very busy during high season so it was nice to experience when it was not so busy. Most of the other joints around here are seafood so if you're looking for something land-based, this will satisfy. [Review 16766 overall - 1492 in Florida - 279 of 2022.]

I have to say the hardest part was deciding which waffle to choose for my culinary craving. These aren't your mamma's waffles, including NO syrup in sight. They start with fresh made waffle dough, adding fresh herbs and seasonings, fresh ingredients, and freshly shredded cheese (always some type of cheese!) to a savory selection of delectable delights. I was impressed with the Roswell which was made with grilled chicken with feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and a homemade tatziki sauce. Oh my word - just give me a gallon and a straw! Or my favorite, the Waffle 51, made with this amazing corn waffle dough (unlike anything I have ever tasted), grilled chicken, a homemade queso, queso fresco, and crema. My mouth is watering just remembering how wonderful this tasted. If you are looking for a sweet treat, try Beam Me Up, mixed with fruity pebbles in the waffle dough, fresh strawberries, fresh banana slices, and a homemade marshmallow cream cheese (have I mentioned how uniquely delightful all the sauces are yet?). They make these waffles to order so while you may wait a few minutes for your order to be prepared, it is well worth the wait. I look forward to returning to Fort Myers just so I can do this all over again. These owners are a delight to interact with and you can taste the love they put into their menu with every bite.

My husband and I have been wondering if there was a really good Mexican restaurant in Englewood,…read moreand tonight we finally found one! El Jalisco was spot on. Everything tasted fresh, and they honestly had some of the best restaurant refried beans I've ever had. My berry mojito was fresh, light, and refreshing, and the staff was incredibly polite and attentive. I also really loved the atmosphere. The decor is light, fresh, and inviting--not the typical quintessential Mexican restaurant decor--which made the whole place feel bright and relaxed. So glad we found this place. Highly recommend, and we will absolutely be back!
