      "...I called to ask if they could accommodate my diet and they assured me they could. Melissa prepared a delicious vegan meal....one of the best I have ever had in a restaurant. I wish she would add it to the menu. I truly appreciated the extra effort made to satisfy a customer..."

      "...Wonderful dinner. Had the duck appetizer and a special watermelon basil mozzerella salad. So good! The short rib and scallops were perfect. Don't miss the white chocolate bread key lime bread pudding. I'd drive to Sanibel just for that. Service was impeccable and approachable.. Lovely atmosphere... Relaxed, island, refined, but not stuffy. Can't wait to go back. Some of the best food I've had in the ft.myers area..."
