6. Snug Harbor Waterfront Restaurant

My neighbors, my wife and I have often talked about dining at Snug's Harbor ....since we enjoy Ft. Myers Beach area so much and love to explore restaurants together. We were there last evening and it was a disaster. Besides needing some work on the ambience, the meals, all four of them were terribly disappointing. My Grouper was tough, my wife's prime rib was cold, and our friends' meals [fish] were raw and tasteless. I regret not taking the opportunity to talk to the chef or manager, but i did not want to embarass my companions. If it wasn't for the company, the evening would have been a total loss. I have rarely been this disappointed. Gene Benedetto, Cape Coral , Fl

Nice place, good food, good service. New restaurant opened in May 2003. Will have to see if they keep up the tradition.

My husband, son and I were recently in Ft. Myers on a business trip, Nov. '02. We were misled by the information on the Snug Harbor Restaurant. We arrived around 5:15 and were immediately seated. The construction around the area did make it difficult to find the place. After construction, it should be easy to find. We ordered steamed oysters as an appetizer. The oysters were fine, however, we had to ask for crackers, horseradish sauce and were given only 4 crackers for a dozen oysters. We each had the Caesar salads and were disappointed that the salad was drowned in dressing. We were anticipating our dinner, which we were extremely disappointed. My husband had grouper that was stuffed with a cream seafood sauce; the taste had little to be desired, very bland. My son and I had Alaskan Snow Crab legs $24.95 for a pound. We were horribly disappointed. Most of the ends of our crabs were still frozen cold. We only ate about half of them. We are not complaining diners, but I will never recommend this restaurant.
