Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Sanibel

Had a great experience at Tommy Bahamas. Service was excellent, food was great and the atmosphere was very pleasant. We ate outdoors on a slightly cool day and the heaters above kept it very comfortable. It’s a well run restaurant.

On a busy night we received some great service. Drinks wereA touch slow getting out but the bar was really slammed. I had the seabass and it was incredible. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food and we all appreciated the excellent service

Our server was friendly and knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. We love this restaurant but prices are getting a bit high for lunch. Have to be more diligent in sharing plates as we dont feel like spending over $100 for lunch for 2 .. overall it was great though

El Cid was great in greeting and serving us during the entre course of the meal. Hostess equally as attentive throughout. Food exceptional. Value was great for Sunset Dining. Looking at regular menu, I would categorize the value slightly more expensive, but worth it for the ambiance, service. and food.

The service, wait time and food was superb. Noticed ansy customers that came in and expecting to be waited upon and served in a couple minutes. This is a very unreasonable expectation. We arrived at 4:10, had reservations for 4:15, was seated at that time. Heike (fabulous waitress, the best in our book) proceeded to greet us, take any drink orders from 4 of us, almost immediately. Put the order in, told us of the specials….we gave her our requests. Between drinks, appetizer, main course and dessert/coffee and enjoying company and celebrating our 27th wedding anniversary……we were in and out by 6pm, no rushing………..::quality service!! This is our go to establishment…..and whenever possible we request Heike. We give Verginas a 5star.
