Reviews for Fresh Catch Bistro in Fort Myers Beach, FL
Worth the $$. Best place on Fort Myers Beach! We were here 2 years ago and thought the same thing so obviously we would come... back. We will probably go a 2nd time for this trip also. Great service, incredible food! Can't remember too much about themeal from 2 years ago (I think surf and turf) but the lobster rosoto sticks out in out minds. This trip... The martinis weregreat. Had lobster bisque which is a favorite of ours and may well be the best we ever had. The bacon wrapped scallops withmushroom crostini were divine. Also had Snapper Oscar and the Filet Mignon as our main courses, both of which were excellent. Five stars for sure!! Read the reviews. The only reason this place doesn't have a 5 star rating overall or closer to 5 starsare a few very picky people or people that don't understand that you can't walk into a the best restaurant in Fort Myers Beachwithout a reservation and expect to be seated. Almost forgot to mention the amazing view because the food was so good! We werelucky enough to see a nice sunset from our table. Picture attached. Read more

Made reservations 3 weeks in advance for 8 people. Specified a sunset view. Arrived and was seated outside around the corner... out of view from the sunset. Immediately I went to the manager to ask why we are sitting here when I had specifically asked fora nice sunset view three weeks prior. Manager said all outside rail tables are for 4 only. I told him I asked pacifically for asunset view with eight people. He said I can?t help you I didn?t take the reservation. The waiter comes to our table and heasked how we are doing and I proceeded to tell him not happy. He said that table over there with the six people are gettingready to leave I?ll ask if you can sit there. I said great that would be good. He came back and told us we were not allowed tomove. The manager never came out to see if there is anything he can do to make our experience better. He hid from me the entiretime. The waiter was good the food was good. This is the view. Zoom in on the group picture. Read more
We ate here in January with friends. My husband had blackened hog fish and I had grouper. Both were delicious. Service was... excellent. And it's great to have a drink at the beach below and watch the sunset before dinner. I will return! Read more
The lobster mac and cheese was amazing! Our waiter was very friendly and accommodating. I have a garlic and onion sensitivity... and the chef made my food from scratch without both (grouper dish). My husbands filet was cooked perfectly. The sunset wasbeautiful too! Highly recommend! Read more
Great food, great view, and great service. Richard was awesome. Leaving, the owner was genuinely concerned how our experience... was. The only issue we had was Google says they opened at 5:00pm and it was already full when we arrived at 4:45pm. Also theytake reservations and the website didn't mention that. Fortunately we got in and loved it. Read more
We stopped in for happy hour on New Year's Eve - we really didn't want to leave but had dinner reservations at another... restaurant. This 'other' restaurant was also on the beach with similar pricing. In addition to a very cramped environment, pooratmosphere & just a bad vibe, the smell of gasoline was overpowering. We changed tables to no avail, so we left & decided to'wing it' on New Year's Eve. We called Fresh Catch Bistro & although they did not have available reservations, they said theywould try to accommodate us if there was availability at the bar or any no shows! When we arrived, they remembered us from happyhour & welcomed us back :) We were fortunate that a table in the bar had just opened which they immediately cleared & preppedfor us! From the hostess to our server & bartender, they not only saved our New Year's Eve - they made it fabulous!!! The foodis spectacular with beautiful presentation, the martinis delicious, service fantastic, stunning beach view & the staff friendly& courteous! We highly recommend putting Fresh Catch Bistro on your must visit list when in the FMB area! Read more
Searched for a place walking distance from the home we are staying. Chosed Fresh Catch Bistro & it exceeded all my... expectations.
