I wanted to update my review to remind everyone that the soups here are delicious! And all are homemade!! My whole crowd loves the lobster bisque! It as good as a higher-end restaurant! The other soups are fantastic as well! We had the burgers-and it was great! Just like a homemade burger you would grill at home! And it had a nice bun that held up to the ketchup! My mom had the fish sandwich-and it was terrific! She also had the sweet potato fries,which were also delightful! read more

Home fries... i guess? Very disappointed. Definitely out of a bag from Costco. Very bland read more

Kind of confused at the ratings for this restaurant. We came in for breakfast and left very underwhelmed. The service was decent with the exception of the wrong price charged. The crab Benedict wasn't exactly cheap, but it was made with imitation crab which is very misleading. It was not good. To everyone saying that they don't get how they can charge so little for so much crab, here's the answer. It's not real crab. In fact, imitation crab costs about the same as a hot dog. So you're paying fresh crab prices for essentially a hot dog with your Benedict. And the worst part is that it doesn't even come with a side. You had to order a side dish of potatoes if you wanted a side. The coconut crusted French toast was a little better, but we ordered one slice and was charged for 2. We honestly just wanted to get out of there so we paid and just left. Safe to say we probably won't be returning. read more

So happy we discovered this place. I've never had coconut french toast and it is so good. I'm going to miss this place when our vacation is over. P.S. I asked for crispy bacon and it was perfect. read more

The food is pretty darn good. I used to cry too at least twice a week, but with the summer hours, it is hard to get there in time to eat and relax. They are also, very kind and understanding. Once, my credit card would not work and I was quite distraught. The lady that was the waitress (I forgot her name), told me not to worry about it and go on and leave. She said that they knew I was good for it. Well, you bet I was there the next day to pay the money!! Wonderful food and nice people. read more

Breakfast, lunch dinner. $10 lunch lunch specials. Prices are good. Nothing fancy. & don't ask for substitutions. But some good seafood specials served with a couple sides A few good options done well in a local family style atmosphere. read more

Yelp says brunch but this place does NOT have mimosas and shouldn't be considered a "brunch" spot without that. I asked the server when we sat down if they had mimosas and she kind of huffed/rudely chuckled and said no. She was fine the rest of the visit but a little rude to start with that comment. They have beer/wine, moscato, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and a red selection, maybe Cab? The food was bland diner food, nothing to write home about. The crab omelet I had was sprinkled with paprika on top but I don't think had salt or pepper in it. The biscuit was ok but maybe frozen, didn't seem fresh made. This location had maybe 12-15 tables inside and I think a table or two outside. Everyone at my table liked there's enough and nothing needed to be sent back but I probably wouldn't try again. If you need a quick, simple, no frills breakfast, good to go. read more

Great Home town treasure. sinething for everyone for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Fish dinners and crab Benedicts will keep you coming back.

I've lived in Englewood for 10 years and finally discovered Winks! We had company visiting and they wanted scallops and shrimp. We got the captain's platter and it was delicious! Shanna was our very sweet and friendly waitress. She explained the specials etc. My husband said it was the best fried shrimp he's had in a very long time. The blackened shrimp and fish were excellent. Perfect flavor...Such a nice little place. We cleaned our plates! Too full for desert. Great prices. We will definitely be back soon! read more

If you like to eat where the locals eat... here it is! Nothing fancy here but it's clean. The food is good, the service is good and the prices are reasonable. We've just added this to our list of favorite breakfast spots too! PS. Try the crabmeat omelette!! read more

Don't recommend the special. Food was not worth the price. Quick service. Not comfortable setting. Waitress was ok. First time there. Won't go back read more

Not horrible but nothing special, Service was decent food average, wouldn't return for another go.

Ive been to this restaurant 5 times, but only eaten there twice. Reason being, ive had to walk out 3 times due to being ignored by staff. The food is good- but that doesnt matter if you cant stand to wait literally 15 minutes with zero acknowlegement of your presence. I mean, get us some drinks and say hello..? Smh. read more

Excellent service. The best diner in Englewood great value. yummy food.

Amazing menus and specials. Wait staff is excellent! Weve been telling folks about this place. We better not because we won't be able to get in. Lol read more

Good wholesome tasty food at a reasonable price! Generous portions. Nothing fancy - just right.

Cute place small they pack you in there but wow the crab Benedict was amazing and the amount of crab on it was shocking for the price. My husband got a mini omelette I would hate to see full sized one bc his was big. Great breakfast looking forward to coming back. read more

Went there with my wife because it was close. We were hungry and simply googled a place close by. What a find! FOOD: I ordered the "broasted chicken" with mashed potatoes and green beans. WOW! Possibly the best chicken I have had. Strongly recommend you give this dish a try. My wife had the salmon, it was also excellent. SERVICE: Roxann was very attentive and personal. Was very suggestive and helpful. Spot on with everything. CLEANLINESS: The restaurant was older but clean. The owner has many interesting historical pictures and facts on the wall. FINAL THOUGHTS: Can't wait to go back to give breakfast and lunch a try. read more

Went there Monday, husband had the prime rib, medium rare. Done perfectly and great taste. Baked potato and green beans done perfectly. I had the breasted chicken and it was very tasty and juicy. F do one just right, same with the veggies. Service was great and the price was reasonable. Going back again. Would recommend this to anyone. read more

had breakfast here, place was crowded, we got seats at the counter. Waitress along with rest of staff were very friendly and attentive. our meals were bacon and eggs, our breakfast was the best we have found in the area. the home fries were deep fried as compared to other places we have breakfast that serve home fries that are mashed potatoes with no seasoning at all. We also enjoyed the oatmeal. read more

This cafe was busy! We sat outside and was waited on promptly. We all had coffee and waters. We order and our food came out in a reasonable amount of time. I order the crab omelette. It was amazing!! This is a good breakfast place. read more

Very good family owned restaurant in Englewood, Florida. The food is delicious. My favorite part is soup homemade.

Neat place to have breakfast when you're visiting! The fresh flowers on our table was a great detail. Our waitress Ruth, was very nice and always kept coffee coming. The French toast was good and the pancakes were not our usual thick fluffy white so depending on your taste you might like them . Other than that our eggs and sausage was very good! read more

Good fish and chips and coleslaw. We got 3 meals and it fed 4. Average breaded fried cod and there tarter sauce was good. Fries good and everyone liked their coleslaw. read more

Great little hole in the wall, mom and pop place. Went there with family while visiting for breakfast and the waitress we had was awesome. She was sweet and always kept our yummy coffee full. I had the Winks breakfast sandwich which I put eggs over hard, American cheese and sausage on a English muffin. So good! I probably could've eaten 1-2 more of them, as it didn't fill me up, but they have a large side menu you can order in addition to their selection. I got a side of bacon and it was perfect! My husband got the french toast which I tried, and it was also very good. If you are adventurous and like small town American hole in the wall restaurants, this place is for you. If you prefer somewhere like First Watch or KeKes, then I'd take a pass! read more

I was not impressed. We are here on vacation and trying to find a place for crab legs. I googled and found this place. It had a 4.9 star rating so even though I had my doubts, looking at the pics, we tried it. My kids were mad bc they do not have crab legs. Very small place. My family said their food was ok but we all just had fried food. My husband liked the fried cod ok. But I thought the coleslaw and coconut shrimp tasted not fresh. It was an ok place for lunch I guess but I wouldn't recommend. read more

Hmmm not sure how this restaurant got the reviews it has. I deducted 1 star for each thing that I would consider a great restaurant should have. 1 very slow service. Waitress was nice but we waited over an hour for our meal to be served. 2 food was lukewarm or cold. Had to actually flag her down to get her attention. Told her our food was not hot. We watched the cook put it on the shelf but she never went and got it. Another person brought it to our table. 3 meal not as described. Ordered there famous crab Benedict. Imitation crab that was shredded and cold. Thumbs down! 4 no one stopped by our table to ask how our meal was. Maybe others have expressed there displeasure prior to us. read more

Certainly an improvement over my last visit. I was not even considering going back there, but my guest requested it, so I obliged. Don't know the waitress' name, since she never mentioned it. She was OK, again, better than the one I had my last time here. We both ordered 1/2 CHEF'S SALAD and that was good for the price, however, I was quite disappointed with the LOBSTER BISQUE that I ordered since it had too much thickener and not enough seafood pieces. All in all, still quite an improvement, so I may give them another go. read more

Stopped in at Wink's Old Town Grill after going to Sears and Real bikes shops. It was noon and we were able to get breakfast and lunch. Great service and great food! Our server was Chary and she was quite entertaining! Good pricing so reasonable for quality and quantity of the food. (Ex: fish and chips basket today is only $3.99) The brownie dessert was super good! We'll be back for sure! read more

Amazing! We came in from Indiana to visit my grandparents and stumbled onto this place. Everyone was very friendly. The food was great. I had the Crab Benedict and my boyfriend had the Meatlovers omelet. Don't skip on the pancake and home fries and at $1.99 for a side there's no reason not to order them! We will always come back when visiting Engelwood. read more

Was in town visiting friends and stopped in for breakfast. We got the western omelette and a small stack of pancakes. The omelette was amazing and the pancakes were some of the best we've had in awhile. I would recommend this place to anyone passing by. read more

First time there. The Crab Omelette was great! My son had the Crab Benny with a side of Coconut French Toast. He was as equally pleased. Small, but my son met a man in which he had a lot in common and had a nice conversation. I enjoyed immensely. read more

I got the crab omelet and my boyfriend got the "monte cristo." We ate because we were hungry, but I found myself choking down the omelet. The crab was extremely stringy and salty. Hollandaise sauce was tasteless. Home fries were just potato squares fried in the frier with no seasoning. The monte cristo was hardly that. It came on soggy french toast with no jelly. The most redeeming item on my plate was the toasted and buttered white bread. read more
