Restaurants near Estero Bay Aquatic Preserve

I'm not much of a fish eater but wanted to try something new and I'm so glad I did! We had the bacon wrapped Grouper, it was incredible!! Probably the most flavorful food I've ever eaten! The cinnamon pickled onions on top was a very pleasant surprise, the smoked applewood bacon was so flavorful I couldn't believe how distinct the flavor was and the Grouper was the perfect texture. The combo of all this together was amazing how it all went together well but the flavors were individually distinct. So amazingly good!

This is the second time I have dined at Chops since it is under new ownership. Although it still a good restaurant, Chops is not the exceptional establishment it used to be. Certainly not for the high end prices they are now charging.

Always a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion. The mushroom soup is superb. My husband enjoyed the veal Marsala and I thoroughly enjoyed their delicious take on my ultimate comfort food, roast chicken with delicious potatoes purée. Finished off with freshly made zeppoles: light crisp and perfect with vanilla gelato.

The service was exemplary.  Everyone was very attentive to our needs.  The overall service atmosphere and food were outstanding.

Excellent food and service. Bonus points as the patio is pet friendly!
