"Traders, traders, traders....where do I start??? Traders are fucked in the palms on Periwinkle and full of taste! The menu only offers enough to satisfy everyone. The shrimps and grits are full of taste with the white cheddar gowns and the black shrimps so a hearty combination on a plate. The mussels pasta is full of gifts from the sea with a srumpy red sauce. They offer small plates, including a house made veal that melt in your mouth and you will be fully abandoned. Each duck is served with warm bread and olive oil diving sauce, trader stages the game with cloth tablecloths and attached upscale gift shop. That was my first visit, and I'm counting until the return. While the parking lot is...

The best dinner of our trip. We had the specials, Chilean Sea Bass and Crab Stuffed Shrimp. They were amazing. Also divided Rohaustern and iur daughter had the children's ribs, which is by far the best value on the island. To dessert we shared the imagination, just amazing. A decadent brownie with nuts of Eive Cream and hard chocolate, just delicious. Service and atmosphere were excellent. Will definitely be back next time on the island.

This is the best restaurant we tried in Sanibel/Captiva. It is very nice inside and quiet compared to the rough sports bar Vibe from many other places there. The waiting staff was plentiful and on their game... our server was very good about checking on us, removing plates, refilling drinks etc. Delicious hot multigrain bread with herbal oil was quickly brought to the table and was absolutely delicious. My entree was the crab and spinach filled shrimp with lobster ravioli and my husband had parmesan encrusted swordfish with ravioli and it was all great... top quality and prepared perfectly. For dessert we share a slice sea salt caramel cheese cake with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. It...

"Highs: Atomposhere, Live Guitar Lows: Expensive, Limited Menu, Quirky Taste Combinations, Poorly Executed. The sum of the parts do not equal the whole. If this was a sports analogy you could say they scored alot of points but poor execution and too many mistakes cost them the win. Maybe one star is somewhat unfair but when you spend over $180 on a dinner out you would like to come away feeling good about it. So many good reviews and we were lured into this place by the online menu which had some interesting appetizers and entrees. We went to celebrate our anniversary hoping for something memorable, which it was but not in a good way, we got there to find the menu was different, which I know happens but what was offered was not anything stellar to choose from with only 5 entrees and some bizarre sounding sting-ray wing special. Not a chicken dish to be found. Trying to find a variation of flavors not to be redundant between the appy and entree, I went with the mussels and frites the wife had the grilled octopus one of her faves, the mussels were good, French fries with them tho? I can pass on that! wife loved the octopus very tender, BUT they served with with Korean BBQ sauce too over-powering, when less is more, simple, fresh lemon, EVOO and cilantro would have been better. Plus the brussle sprouts were charred looking outside but basically raw inside. Bread and dipping oil (which was good) did not get to the table until we were almost thru our appetizers course. Then came wine debacle #1: saw on the wine list a very interesting Cuvee, ordered a bottle, the blend on the bottle was not what as described on the wine list, different by far, opted for something else. Entrees came, Mrs. Ordered the smoked tenderloin because there wasn't much to choose from, asked it be cooked MEDIUM, the steak arrived and after two slices it was found raw inside, sent it back, returned a few minutes later still on the rarer side (see photo) sent back again, got it to a point it was edible. [This was also noted in another one star review] My Duck Breast was cooked nicely but the rest of the dish was a disaster, just an ugly plate of food, the so-called sweet potato gnocchi were four prune sized gummy, pan blackened wads with a play- dough consistency, and the braised red cabbage gave a twisted suarukraut flavor to the dish, just a mis-paired combo, a nice chorizo and poached apple corn bread stuffing and a grilled Portobello slice would have worked better. As in another one star review this place tries do a mash-up of flavors, attempting to be eclectic and tries to do too much and can't pull it off. When you only have FIVE entrees on the menu they should be the most amazing dishes ever presented. Last but not least got the key lime bread pudding, I thought it was very good, freshly warm, however the lime taste is just a hint almost undetectable. Wine debacle #2 happened when we asked for the Standing Stone Vineyard (Finger Lakes NY) Reisling Ice Dessert Wine"
