  This is one of our favorite stops on Fort Myers beach. It has outdoor seating with great views, and also tv screens for watching sports. They also have a great Happy hour.

  Across the street is the beach, with rooftop seating, you will have beautiful views of the water and sunset if you go for supper (there are umbrellas on the rooftop seating area). The food is good and portions are more than enough for me! Reasonably priced menu and a good variety to choose from. Bar and indoor seating is down on main floor. Parking is now a bit easier since they reconfigured their lot and have repaved it.
  Generally, always busy, but as most of Ft. Myers Beach, it depends on the season. I've never had to wait long to be seated. Staff are friendly and attentive. Very alive, enthusiastic atmosphere which makes for a fun night out.

  Our server Michelle was so kind and attentive! We never had to wait long for service and she even recommended that we go check out the sand sculpture competition that is in town this week! We didn't try the seafood but we did love what we got! I got the chicken wrap, Buffalo style and it was so good! The Buffalo sauce is a sweet hot and it's super tasty. I be got the rice and beans as my side though and they were not my favorite. My finance got a burger with fries. The burger was cooked just right and the portion of fries was huge not to mention delicious! I only wished that I had gotten fries and not rice and beans! We would visit again for sure!

  Great place. One of our favorites on fmb. Very friendly staff and the food is fantastic. Sit on the upper deck 4 the better view. Ask 4 Dan as your server. He is just awesome.

  Nice place. Like the roof seating the best. Had to seat downstairs cause the roof area was full. Good food. Our friend raved about her lobster roll!

  Great cocktails and food along with some of the best homemade key lime pie around! The atmosphere is friendly, casual and cool in the air-conditioned first level. Rooftop dining provides an unlimited amount of people watching while sipping on your favorite drink. It does get a little warm up top in summer months, but with glimpses of the sea and that warm gulf breeze it's nothing that a rum-runner can't handle. Definitely a go-to when visiting Ft. Myers beach.

  Recently visited The Beached Whale and loved it!! Andrea was our server and she did a marvelous job, can't say enough good things about her service. The food was wonderful (crunchy fish, sweet potato fries, slaw, beach bread), the drinks were great too. Though we sat upstairs on the deck and couldn't hear it well, there was live music that we listened to on our way in and out. Fantastic atmosphere!! Highly recommended.

  This was the perfect place to come for our first night of vacation, not only was our waitress, Michele, one of the nicest servers ever, she ensured that everything was to our full satisfaction. Plus she gave us great advice about places to go around town! Definitely recommending this place to everyone. The food was delicious also!

  Hostess and Server were nice...but food lacked lustre. Calamari not fried to golden brown and had a strong flour-like taste. The fries are regular old frozen from a bag (or at least seemed it). Grouper was tasty but by wife kept getting bones in her filets, and the lack of a good sauce or dressing for the fish tacos kinda killed it. When we asked for a little extra guacamole for them we were charged for it. Mine was fried and a bit over greasy. Daughter had a salad with blackened chicken and it came out very dry. All in all I wouldn't say it's a must visit. First time for us and prob the last.

  Quick and good service. Extensive menu, fresh sea food but they also have everything else.

  Manager totally didn't handle anything correctly. Group of 13 adults having a good time, got cut off trying to order a second round of drinks. We were all taken back when we realized they weren't kidding. They called the cops and made a huge scene for no reason. I guess we should've stayed at the Lani Kai, ate there and had a good time

  Don't act like you are so busy that your customers don't matter! Our waitress was WAY more important than we were! I have been a repeat customer since 1990.... suggested it to renters, but won't after this experience. Thank you loss to Michelle! (Maroon hair coming towards your table? Expect to be treated rudely!)
