A more formal bar and grill situated on the Calooshatchee River with great water views. Excellent sea food.
Best advice for parking is to try and find street parking as it can get very full. If not, try the south side parking lot. Situated right down town, so after dinner you can stroll downtown Fort Meyers.

Casual and fun beach restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Keep in mind that this establishment is cash only, so make sure you have some bills, although they do have an ATM machine. The food is good, but it's even better watching a sunset on the outdoor tables on the beach. Don't miss this one!
