Best Restaurants for Business Meals in Punta Gorda

11 am reservations were enjoyed by the six of us. Sunday(s), street parking and the nearby garage parking are free and we took full advantage of that "bonus". By noon, this wonderful restaurant was "hopping" with customers. Our menu selections were all served hot, fresh and delicious. The Scallops Casimiro and Stuffed Mushrooms are a tasty choice for starters. The 1905 Salad is a wonderful dish and this delicious salad can be shared between two people. And finally the Cuban Sandwich -- beyond delicious! A large sandwich so bring your appetite. Our server MAX was outstanding. Very attentive, but not aggressively attentive. Max gave us just enough time in between ordering and enjoying our selections but was quietly attentive to refill water glasses and asked if anyone wanted refills of beverages. Extremely good server - if I could give MAX 10 stars, I would! Value - expect to pay about $25 - $30 per person (beverage included.) TIP: Book your reservation(s) at least 2 weeks ahead of time and enjoy the 11 am time slot for a beautiful brunch. Bring your appetites! Sidewalk tables are available for those who wish to enjoy their Columbia experience with their fur baby or for those just wanting to sit outside and soak up some great Florida sunshine. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

My husband and I decided on Coopers Hawk winery for our Valentines dinner. It was our first time and we absolutely loved it. Our server Debby, was extremely attentive and gave us some really good recommendations on wine ( we’re not huge drinkers) she allowed us to taste a few before finalizing on the Sweet Red. I can’t compare to many but it was definitely the best wine we’ve had. Our food came out and it not only looked but tasted phenomenal. It wasn’t overly heavy which we appreciated yet filling enough. We would definitely go again and would highly recommend Debby as your server.

We enjoyed a lovely dinner at Dry Dock for Valentine’s Day. The restaurant was busy but the team had everything under control. We were greeted immediately and taken care of promptly at the bar for cocktails as we waited a very short time for our table. Our server was informative and efficient and went above and beyond to make us feel at home and understand the menu. Our food was amazing The snapper served right off the grill and the side veggies perfectly cooked. The jambalaya was piping hot and delicious. No room for dessert this time but the key lime pie was so tempting! 5 ⭐️

The food was amazing. Top notch restaurant, great service. We were seated next to the the servers prep area little noisy other than that it was a fabulous dinner.

Our first visit and we enjoyed every minute. Service was 5 star thanks to Demi, our server, and Lisa, the manager. Nice wine by the glass selection. Steak and seafood were delicious. Issue with steak was immediately and professionally dealt with. House salad was flavorful. Desserts were substantial portion and superb. It is the best service and food we have had during two weeks in Florida. Highly recommend this restaurant.
