BALEEN - Naples

I was invited by friends for a fine evening given in my honor.
The food was excellent, the ambiance was fantastic and the service was outstanding. Unfortunately on the way home, I realized the mechanism of the dimmer switch for the light inside the car had been tampered with and the switch was broken. I actually found the broken piece on the seat next to the driver. So I introduced a claim to the manager of valet parking, who then presented it to the company LAZ parking and I could not believe the outcome of my claim. It was actually denied. My evening wound up costing me $300.00 What a disappointment after such very nice dinner. M. Maes - Estero Fla

they completely exceeded all expectations - the dinner the location the staff

Never disappointed at my favorite spot in Naples!!

Baleen is one of my faves in Naples. Have an amazing dinner, on the beach, watching the sunset. Always an amazing experience.

Great everything including service

Excellent as always!

Loved it!!!

We were celebrating our Anniversary and had a perfect evening. Our server, Mike was a lot of fun and our sommelier paired our wine perfectly.
Thank You for a Wonderful evening!

We were very disappointed in The food and service during this visit to the restaurant. We have been here before and had a reasonable experience but this time was extremely disappointing. Hostess seem disinterested in getting us seated, our waiter was disinterested at best. Even the valet in getting the car seem to have a bad attitude. Overall a very bad experience!

USUALLY I really am impressed with this place. However for our last dinner there I am not impressed. I ordered the Scallop price fix dinner and got a WHOPPING TWO SCALLOPS. WHAT A COMPLETE RIP OFF NOT HAPPY and I am a full time 24/7 365 days a year resident and live around the corner. They need to make it right. I’ll wait ....

Greeted and seated promptly.
Great menu. Food was delicious

This was a fantastic place. Loved our meal. Service was excellent. This was our 3rd time here and we will continue to come back again!

We went here for our anniversary dinner and our server Jose was amazing. The pork chop and chocolate cake were so good. Plus, you can't beat the views.

The view, drinks, food, service-perfect! I was celebrating my birthday and they did an amazing job making me feel special. The tablet menus were another fun feature!

Anniversary. Rose and special dessert brought to the table for my wife. Great touch! Always enjoy dining here.

Very disappointing experience after fond memories of great food and service during our last visit several years ago. The food was average or bad and the service was not good. It has a much different look — very casual like many chain restaurants but still continue to charge fine dining prices, higher than others that actually deliver on fine dining food quality and service. The beach views are breathtaking for cocktails but, sadly, not worth it for subpar dining.

Always a delightful dining experience and an amazing view

We took our 22 yr old granddaughter there for dinner. The waiter was short tempered, he never told us about the specials & wouldn’t let us try the bottle of wine we ordered until we insisted. My gdaughter & I ordered Risotto with lobster tail. The risotto was not cooked properly. This restaurant has gone downhill since we first ate there many years ago. We will not be returning.

One of the few true fine dining spots directly on the water...we have never been disappointed.

Excelente atencion de Jorge (habla español) y muy buena la comida

My absolute favorite restaurant in Naples!!
The FOOD is delicious! Nothing else can compete!
The service is unbeatable!
The atmosphere is sublime!
Love, love, love BALEEN !!

Incredible food. Incredible views

Limited menu, brought the wrong food, inefficient parking, way overpriced... has a lot to learn from neighboring restaurants...

We usually dine At BALEEN once a month. First, our server took a very long time to even come over. Then it took 45 minutes to even get our bread. On open table was a menu that we looked at prior to arriving due to some dietary restrictions. Once we were able to review menu the only item on the menu had been removed the day before. When we ask the chef if she could make it she defused. Try to go to something else proved to be very difficult. Unfortunately, what I had for was so sub par, I left without eating it. I am vegan and eat out frequently. Other restaurants (fine dining) have recognized that there are many individuals that have vegan diets. BALEEN has not followed. We will not be returning.

The menu changed and was not as good as what was shown online. Everything was al la carte and pricey. Waitor was very good. Probably would not go back due to limited menu options. Prefer Turtle Club for beachside dining.

Birthday for my daughter

Without a doubt, my favorite restaurant in Naples!

All around amazing experience, from the ocean sunset view, exceptional service and delicious food. Our best restaurant experience in Florida during our vacation. Highly recommended!

Went for dinner with friends from out of town.
The food, the view, the service was all spectacular.
Adriano our server made the whole experience even better.
Great place for any occasion!
Seafood started was fresh and amazing!
Would recommend to anyone to share!

It doesn’t get better. I am reluctant to even write a review, selfishly. The view. The beach. The atmosphere. The service. The terrific food. I’ve lived in Naples for 20 years and there has never been a better place in all those years. So if you don’t mind please ignore my glowing review so when I wish to go I’ll still be able to get a table.

The appetizers are a little skimpy for the price. $20 for one crab cake seems extreme but everything else was great.

We had out of town guests. The service was outstanding and the ambiance and food was wonderful. Our server Chris provided a wonderful experience

Definitely not a local Restaurant
Parking is $5.00 plus gratuity
You have to order the Bread for $8.00 and no refills.
The servers placed the wrong menu selection in front us.
As one of us was finished they immediately started to remove the plate.
Very pricy $$$$$ for what you get.
You be the judge.

Wonderful Father’s day

My husband had the Prime Rib special. I had the chef’s Grouper. We started with beet salad. The food was incredibly good. Portion sizes are generous and cocktails and wine all great. It’s expensive, but the food is top notch.

Fathers day

Awesome food and my wife’s and my favorite spot to eat in naples.

Lovely breeze on patio, really good food followed by a wonderful free dessert to honor our anniversary.

Great job on the re-decorating ... Whole new look ... Food and service were great.

The view and service were outstanding! The food was ok, but not for the price (over $300 for 3 people)!
