- SandyFeb 19, 2024Great food, great service
We stopped here on a chilly afternoon. The propane heater on the patio kept us and our Golden Retriever Chow nice and warm. The fish tacos were delicious and they had some great drinks. I had a Sanibel Stoop and a Happy Gator mojito. Our fur baby was served water before we were. Would definitely recommend.

We used the app to find this place and OMG what a treasure! We were nervous because there were no other dogs but this place did not disappoint! Our waiter started by bringing both dogs there very own water! Very welcoming and highly recommend!
- Julie W.Jul 30, 2022Dog Friendly
we were able to bring our puppy with us to the outdoor seating area. He was also the first to get served!! They brought out a bowl of ice cold water for him! Not to mention this is a great restaurant for families. Great drinks and great Kids menu that come with ice cream sandwiches!

There was no recognition of the dogs nor service to our 2 well behaved boxers. And when I ordered the babies a hamburger Pattie, the waiter came back and said that the dogs could not eat there. We went ahead and stayed because we had already ordered. The food was mediocre at best. We were expecting much more than frozen fish patties and Sam's Club barbecue. My daughter ordered the crab cakes which came 2 on a plate undercooked and the size of a quarter. I do recommend and will never go there again.
- CarrieMay 24, 2022Great food and shade for pup
Wonderful food and drinks. Very dog friendly. Huge shaded patio with a nice breeze. Wouldn’t bring a water dish but okay with us having our own. Highly recommend!!
- TinaMay 8, 2022Excellent food and very dog-friendly!!!
Very nice outdoor patio, excellent food and cocktails, and very dog-friendly staff! A great place to chill out with the pup after a day on the beach!
- BobMay 5, 2022One of our favorite places to eat on Sanibel.
Very clean and food was excellent. Great place to take Fido any time!
- KateNov 26, 2021Excellent
great food, service, atmosphere and dog friendly. we sat on the patio with the pups. Everyone loved their meals! Friendly staff is much appreciated.
- WayneAug 11, 2021Hot Diggety Dawg!
Great ambiance, casual, yet elegant in a simple and accessible way. The menu mirrors the same. Paella and Caesar together with Pinot Grigio and the hot fresh bead mini baguette that came out was unexpectedly delightful. The service was caraway good, and Dadsy should know since he has been in the restaurant box for 35 -plus years. Bring your own water dish though. Read the “service dog” review before writing this, and am happy to report it is no longer an issue
- KayleeJun 16, 2021Amazing experience
The staff treated our dogs like royalty! Our pups were hot from the beach. Gordy our host aimed the fan at them. Frank our watier got our dogs iced water and refills without us asking. The patio downstairs has a great view. Food was great. I will 100% go back again and again!
- JasonOct 16, 2020Excellent food and covered patio
Perfect spot for an outdoor meal when the weather isn't perfect. The staff was very welcoming to our dogs, and the food is amazing.
