    Absolutely the best upscale restaurant without being pretentious, fabulous food, stellar service, gorgeous ambiance, I'm gushing because this place is perfection. They have a value early bird menu for 55.00 salad, surf and turf and dessert . Perfect service by Adam.., They have figured out the secret sauce.. You can have elegant without high maintenance attitude.., Definitely worth the drive from Ft Myers for a perfect dining experience. . This place is beyond perfect..,And every employee works in tandem so you get a perfect cohesive experience. Yes this manager gets it done, and every employee looks happy to be there. Bravo, perfect first dining experience..

    The Continental's atmosphere truly stood out. The outdoor seating is beautiful, and the koi pond adds such a peaceful, unique touch. It feels special the moment you walk in. The staff was friendly and hard-working, which we appreciated. Service felt attentive without being overbearing. The food was good, but not particularly memorable. For us, the environment was the highlight more than the meal itself. That said, the location is great, right in the middle of a lively area with plenty of shops and things to explore before or after dinner. It's on the spendy side (you pay for the location!). They have an early bird dinner menu option. One thing to note: parking can be tricky. It's a busy spot in an awesome location, but there isn't a lot of parking available. Overall, we'd return for the ambiance and location alone - it's a great place to enjoy a beautiful Naples evening.

    Stopped in around 4:30 just for a drink and to experience the ambiance that were heard so much about. It definitely lived up to the vibe! Bartenders were so nice and service was fantastic. We both started with a martini and it was delicious. Enjoyed it so much we decided to stay for dinner and ordered the happy hour special of a salad, Hangar steak and dessert. Everything was delicious from beginning to end (oh and to end the night with those cinnamon donuts - absolutely amazing!). So glad we stopped in!

    The ambiance here is wonderful. Greeted by the Koi pond as soon as you enter, and we were offered fish food to feed them! The oysters were fresh as can be, and the steak options are divine. Too not neglect the sides, the potato gratin is 10/10.

    We had a reservation at 7:30 last evening and were promptly seated on time for what turned out to be one of the best meals I've ever experienced. Our server, Ginna was cordial, well informed, and a testimony to the best! This has to be the finest dining experience offered in Naples by a margin. Crafted Cocktails served as they should be, fantastic appetizers and outrageously good Snake River fillets, au gratin potatoes and baby carrots followed. The 4 piece music ensemble was a treat, as was the coconut cake we had as a finale. We were suitably impressed by ALL the Continental delivered.

    So delicious, from the drinks to the steaks, everything was incredible! The decor and ambience was great as well. I had the bone in filet mignon and my husband had the 40 day dry aged ribeye. Sides of the roasted carrots and mashed potatoes. Next level really. Yummy yum yum!

    Tomato carpaccio salad

    The only reservation we could get was at 5:00 pm, so we were lucky enough to find out about their early dining menu! Our meal started with a visit from the Dirty Martini Cart, a great little treat offering freezing cold martinis and olives served from a table side cart. We then ordered from the early dining prix fixe menu. Great value, $55 for a starter, main and dessert. I had a tomato carpaccio salad, a perfectly cooked 12 oz hanger steak with asparagus and au gratin potatoes and fresh donuts with maple bourbon caramel sauce. I also had an extra 4 oysters, very fresh with tasty sauce. Our server, Tyson, was very friendly and interactive, talking us through the menu and ensuring we had a great time. The restaurant is beautiful with indoor, outdoor and covered seating. Can't wait to go back!

    Great location in Naples for a high end specialty dinner. Out with friends, we had a beautifully located table inside, yet felt outside due to all the open doorways. The outdoor patio seating area as well as the indoor restaurant are beautiful. We sat at 5:45, still time for the early specials (offered between 5:00-6:00). $50 for a three course meal, it was an amazing value and absolutely delicious. We tried the Caesar salad as well as the caprisi salad with beratta. Both were outstanding. Our main selection was the filet and lobster tail. Served with potatoes and asparagus. Cooked to perfection! We finished with fresh warm doughnuts with a dipping sauce. Other main course specials were a chicken dish and 2 seafood options. The main menu is full of great options, so no way you leave hungry. Very pleased with our dinners, the service was impeccable. Can't wait to go back!

    The Continental is your quintessential steakhouse located in the picturesque downtown Naples. The decor, the neighborhood, the cars, the people all converging to create a posh yet approachable experience. The ambience was further amplified with a live jazz band and the perfect evening weather. The food and drink were TOP NOTCH. Almeidas had an Australian NY Strip which was phenomenal; Silva's had a hearty skirt steak.. seriously one was enough for two. Their steak tartar also a notable nibble. The donuts were an ABSOLUTE homer run with its chocolatey, salted caramely filling sauce. I seriously wanted to take a shot of it! Kudos kudos to the team for an amazing first impression!

    Celebrating Carol's birthday. Delicious food.

    We all work together in real estate, me for John R Wood Christie's international. I had not been to The Continental for a while but to celebrate our friend Carol's birthday. We went there with Cake in tow. We had their lobster special, which was absolutely delicious. Actually every bite even the bread was fabulous. I'd forgotten how good The Continental was going there hopefully most Sundays. It is a fabulous restaurant in a town filled with restaurants, but only perhaps a dozen that are truly exceptional in cuisine. This is one of them.

From the moment we walked in, the hostesses and manager made us feel welcome and had us seated right away. Our server, Angel, was fantastic. He walked us through the menu, explained how many of the dishes were prepared, and made thoughtful recommendations without ever feeling pushy. We started with the octopus and fresh focaccia with honey. The octopus was exceptional--easily one of the best I've had and on par with dishes I've enjoyed at Michelin-starred and James Beard-recognized restaurants. We also shared the beet and goat cheese salad, followed by the local snapper and the ribeye cap topped with lobster claw and tail in chimichurri. Every dish was beautifully prepared and showcased the quality of the ingredients. The cocktails were well balanced (not overloaded with ice), and the Thyme on Thyme is an easy recommendation if you're looking for something light and refreshing. The wine list paired nicely with the meal as well. Watching the sunset over the water while listening to music drifting across the park made the evening even more memorable.

When we walked into the restaurant, we were presently surprised on how pretty the place transformed from what used to be Three60 Market. Cozy, rustic, chic.

We arrived right when they opened so we were initially the only people there. However, that quickly changed in the next hour or 2. We were seated by the hostess, and our waiter quickly appeared. He was warm and friendly and was attentive throughout the night.

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.
