Thank you so much for an outstanding experience in celebration of my daughter’s Masters degree! We requested and received a table facing the water and it was just spectacular. My family who came with us had not been to the Boathouse before and it did not disappoint! Everything was excellent, our server was so friendly & timed everything perfectly. Thank you for helping us create a special memory! Hats off to your talented chef & our server for making it an A+ experience!

Long wait to be asked for cocktails or wine. Over last 6 months, prices have increased and portions reduced. Therefore, value advantage, as compared to Naples overpriced restaurants has shrunk.

Love this place!! It is right on the water, clean, great service and delicious fish!! Love that they also have dock help for docking which can be tricky if it's windy or busy.

We sat at the bar for drinks and appetizers, then went to our table for dinner. Ambience at the bar was great, bartender was on top of things and very friendly. Dinner was at our table and food was excellent.

Overall, it was a big meh for us. One of the first things we learned was that sides no longer came with dinner and had to be ordered separately. The Trigger fish was highly recommended but was really something I would expect from Red Lobster or Pinchers. Our bill with 2 entree's, one side salad, one side of pasta and one glass of wine came out over $100.00. Not outrageous, but not much of a value either. Our server was good though our bills were mixed up with another table and had to be voided and rerun. We've had a much better experience at the Boathouse in Fort Myers and the old Boathouse in Cape Coral.
