My wife and I visited Turtle Club for a date night while on vacation on 09/21/26. While we enjoyed…read morethe food and the beautiful sunset view, our experience has been overshadowed by the sheer number of bites we received while dining outside. We left with what appears to be numerous sand flea bites covering our feet, legs, and arms. I personally have well over 100 bites, and the discomfort has continued to make the past several days of our vacation miserable. We were actively slapping and killing the fleas while sitting at the restaurant, and other guests around us were also commenting on them. I understand that I'm visiting from out of town and may not have known what to expect from dining directly on the sand. However, I have a serious concern with Turtle Club actively promoting the experience of "digging your feet in the sand" without clearly warning guests about the potential for sand fleas or explaining whether the area is regularly treated or maintained to prevent this issue. Is this something Turtle Club routinely experiences? Are the outdoor dining areas treated for insects? If this is a known issue, guests deserve to be made aware before choosing to dine outside. Unfortunately, as much as we enjoyed the food and sunset, the outdoor dining experience was simply not worth the consequences we've dealt with afterward. For future guests: bring bug spray and be prepared, or consider sitting inside. I wish we had known before choosing the outdoor experience. Turtle Club, I hope you take this feedback seriously and consider doing more to protect and properly inform your guests.

My wife and I came back to Truluck's for a quiet date night to mark my retirement from corporate…read morelife. We wanted to celebrate, but discreetly. Dolly greeted us warmly at the front, and although we waited about 15 minutes because the previous table was running late, the evening quickly settled into exactly the kind of relaxed celebration we wanted. Lauren took great care of us and provided the level of attentive, polished service we've come to expect from Truluck's. We started with the Trident Caviar and a flight of oysters, followed by red king crab and Bairdi crab. The king crab was excellent. The Bairdi was good as well, although having it prepared so we didn't have to crack it ourselves made it a little more cumbersome to eat. I also tried the lobster bisque for the first time and loved it. For dinner, I had the rack of lamb with petite lobster and spinach, while my wife had the petite snapper prepared simply. Both were excellent. The caviar was probably our favorite, paired with our go-to Bollinger. I definitely got a little ambitious with the ordering and eventually tapped out, so a good portion of dinner came home with us. Lauren was also very helpful with the wine. We tend to gravitate toward Bordeaux, and she made a recommendation that fit our tastes well without overcomplicating things. Overall, it was exactly what we wanted: excellent food, thoughtful service, and a polished evening without turning the occasion into a production. Thank you.

We had an absolutely terrible experience at this restaurant and would not recommend it to anyone…read more We chose this restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday, expecting a memorable evening. Instead, it was one disappointment after another from the moment we sat down until we finally walked out. The problems started immediately. We sent a drink back, and while the complimentary rolls looked beautiful, they were undercooked in the center. My Caesar salad then arrived without any dressing, requiring me to flag down our server. At that point, I couldn't help but wonder what was happening in the kitchen. The Lyonnaise potatoes were some of the worst I've ever been served. Rather than the classic preparation, they were simply halved potatoes that appeared to have been deep-fried with a few onions, covered in an unappetizing sauce, and even contained a couple of burnt French fries mixed in. This is not what anyone expects from a restaurant that markets itself as fine dining. My Chilean sea bass was so charred and oversalted that I had to send it back. My husband's entrée was equally disappointing--it arrived cold and was completely underwhelming. Our server, Jen, was pleasant, but the service itself was lacking. On two separate occasions I had to ask a hostess walking by to send our server to our table because we couldn't get anyone's attention. The manager, Luigi, was courteous and apologetic. He offered us a gift card, which I declined. While I appreciated his professionalism, a gift card is meaningless when the food and overall experience were so poor that I have no desire to return. To end the evening, we were brought a complimentary Baked Alaska. Unfortunately, even that was inedible. The ice cream had obvious freezer burn and a crunchy texture, as though it had thawed and been refrozen. We each took one bite and left. For a restaurant located in the heart of affluent downtown Naples, the overall quality was astonishingly poor. Every aspect of our meal--from the kitchen execution to the pacing and service--fell far below the standards of a high-end restaurant. This birthday dinner was supposed to be a special celebration, but it turned into one of the most disappointing dining experiences we've ever had. We would have been far better off spending our money at Ocean Prime, flemings, capital Grille, or Eddie V's,all of which have consistently delivered exceptional food and service. Save your money and dine at other much better establishments

We've lived in Naples for six years, and somehow, we had never made it to Bleu Provence. Well…read more.. that was a mistake! Our long-overdue first visit was absolutely delightful. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere transports you somewhere else. The interior is beautiful, and the back patio is just as charming. You truly feel like you've stepped into another place in time. Our bartender, Kiril, was wonderful and kept our drinks flowing all evening, while John took us on a little tour of their wine cellar. It was incredible to see the vast selection of wines available both for the restaurant and for retail. We started with the escargot because, well... when in a French restaurant, do as the French do! I also had the beet salad, which was delicious. For our entrees, my husband had the Wagyu Short Ribs Bourguignon, and I had the Braised Chicken Basquaise. Both were absolutely delicious and beautifully prepared. There were so many menus to explore: happy hour, the regular dinner menu, the drink menu, and, of course, the September Sizzle menu. If you're not familiar with Sizzle, it's a September dining promotion featuring the restaurants special three-course meals for $49, including an appetizer, entrée, and dessert. Many other restaurants in the Naples area participate in this September sizzle as well so be on the lookout as it's a great deal. And speaking of dessert... the Hummingbird Cake was incredible. Honestly, I may have to go back just for that! All in all, our first night back in Naples was made even better by discovering a restaurant we somehow waited six years to try. Bleu Provence was well worth the wait, and I'm already looking forward to going back. #BleuProvence #NaplesFloridaEats #googlelocalguides #FrenchCuisine #NaplesRestaurantWeek

It is without question a must do, when you're here. My family and I have been coming here for many years, and it only has gotten better each time. This location has two floors of seating, more importantly two bars you can sit at. After checking in with the hostess, our wait was only about twenty minutes. Once seated at our table all of us were ready to order. For drinks we ordered two rounds I got the Dark and Stormy for both rounds(Gosling's Black Seal Rum mixed with Gosling's Ginger Beer & a squeeze of lime) my ordered a mango and coconut mojito; my sister in law ordered a rum runner. We all loved our drinks. Drinks here are always made perfect. For an appetizer we shared the calamari. The breading was light and the calamari was tender. For entrees my sister in law and I ordered the Deep Water Mahi Mahi(Hand-cut mahi-mahi seared in sweet soy sauce, placed on a jasmine rice stir fry with a tropical vinaigrette) This dish is my favorite meal here. The mahi was tender, the sweet soy sauce and the tropical vinaigrette ties everything together. My wife ordered the Yucatan Shrimp with a side of jalapeño cheese grits. She gave me two thumbs up. My father in law Grouper Sandwich (Fresh grouper grilled, blackened, or fried. Served with Doc's tartar sauce on a freshly baked roll) He ordered his fried. He loves the grouper sandwich here and usually gets it. Again, this is another place we will always comeback to.

We are…read morelifelong vacationers who have been coming since the 60s in my parents case and I have clear memories of the old location being great. The quality definitely slipped from that point when they moved 10 years ago. I never really understood why it continued to be such a popular spot. If you don't believe that we my previous review that's over 10 years old lol We returned for the first time since Ian 4 years ago and while the service is still very touch & go-our server seemed to be having a rough night. To be fair she had the table next to us that was like 12 seemingly college age kids who were really loud & obnoxious & who were also annoying us so maybe that's accounts for her mood. The food and drinks have really turned around. We came in the first night of our trip just to "check that it still sucks" but knowing it's an easy walk in without much of a wait in the September off-season and we were tired from all day spent in the sun & wanted it to be easy. But we were so surprised. The food was excellent. Fresh. Not clearly reheated (a common thing in the past). I asked for a mojito made with coconut rum rather than traditional rum and that kind of seemed to confuse our server. To be fore they have a coconut mojito that has a coconut cream in it but that's not what I wanted. After a bit of back & forth it came out as ordered and delicious (highly recommend trying it made this way-you'll never go back) We enjoyed our meal so much we actually went back for a midday drink and snack later that week. Unheard of for us. Had a really lovely conversation with a bartender who's been there forever about the state of things at the island. He remembered my drink order so I'm apparently notorious now lol. And once again the food orders this time was so good and fresh and hot (very hot-beware of you order fish fingers) So very pleasantly surprised! Whatever you changed in the past 4 years, keep it up! Where a lot of places seem to have gotten worse since Ian you guys improved on n a huge way and we look forward to coming back now

We ate in the main dining room and Brandon was our server. He is just so good at his job. He came around just when we needed something. He has the sort of aura or vibes or whatever you want to call it, that really made for an exceptional experience. He truly wanted us to enjoy our meals. The hostess said she was seating us with someone good and I could not agree more!! So, I was going to order a little differently going in to Shula's. But then I saw their promotion and I was already ordering filet mignon. Why not get all this other stuff with it? The bread was good. The filet mignon, of course, was the star of the show. This is truly the best filet mignon I have ever had. I remember going to Shula's when they were in Miami Lakes and loved it too. Mashed potatoes are okay. I probably should have upgraded to the au gratin potatoes. The French onion was good but not the best. The raspberry cheesecake was pretty good. We went back the next day for lunch and had a different server. She had a different kind of personality I did not appreciate. Beyond that, the burgers were okay. I was going to order a steak salad but figured a burger and fry would be better. Some fries were undercooked but I was getting full anyway. Their burgers are huge!! I appreciate how the manager remembered us from the night before and even said hello to me when I was sitting in the lobby of the hotel where I was staying. He is really nice. I highly suggest the filet mignon. If you like this cut of meat, it is phenomenal.
