Love the tiki but the bartender Nick should not be a bartender ordered first drink I believe he forgot to put vodka in it could not drink it ,I ordered another drink from nick and could not drink that one the man on the side of me got a drink from nick and his was wrong.I ordered my third drink from Jackie and it was fine ,not saying I will never go back there but I donât think I will let nick make me a drink.I think he needs to be trained as a bartender before he goes behind the barThanks for taking the time to leave us a review.

Very nice lunch buffet with prime rib, asparagus, and more. It wasn't too busy, our server was attentive, and the setting was comfortable. The prime rib was some of the best I've had, with zesty seasoning.Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We are glad you had a great time, we would like to know in the future what we would have to do to turn that 4 into a 5.

This is an annual event in the summer. So the annual dinner was 8.21.19. Had to make reservations. 3 courses, $25/pp. We got there @ 5:15 and it was jammed. Extra tables had been added. 50 were on waiting list, so couldnât attend. 1st course choice of house or Caesar salad, or gazpacho. 2nd course, choice of bison meatloaf, braised short rib, pork chop, Faroe Island salmon, or Boulibase, dessert choice of chocolate cake or cheesecake. 6 @ our table. 2 meatloaf, 3 salmon and 1 short rib. Everything was top notch. And kudos to both the kitchen and wait staff. Timing perfect between courses. One more kudo, thank you Father Jerry for putting this dinner together.

Closed Sundays in summer? Or July? Not sure. We drove from North Fort Myers to Punta Gorda for dinner on Sunday. The phone answering machine does not inform you of this. Doesnât say anything. Donât go Sundays till âin-seasonâ? Clarify before you go. Just advice. Their website does not clarify this either.

Who would have thought you could get a good breakfast at a wine bar. Well, you can here. I had the ham & cheese quiche of the day, while my wife had biscuits with bacon, tomato and/or sausage gravy. My quiche came with a great arugula and spinach salad, her bacon was crisp as ordered. We had the place to ourselves for all intents and purposes. Bianca was a great waitress and Lisa did a bang up job in the kitchen. They never did tell me what wine paired with scrambled eggs tho....
