This is a fantastic place! The location and views can't be beat. The waitress, Mandy, was incredible, and so helpful! Definitely... make this one of your stops in Fort Meyers Beach for breakfast! Read more
A pretty cool place to gets some food and drinks on the beach with a great view. Visited at 11:30a in June, sat outside on the... top level of Lani Kai and enjoyed snacks, drinks and the view for a couple of hours. Food and service was good and we enjoyedour visit. Normally I would have thought it would have been too busy to visit, but this time of year was perfect. Read more
We really enjoyed our dining experience. Take the elevator to the Top floor. We had reservations and were given a choice of... the restaurant area or the bar area. We chose a high top next to the window to see the great view. Julie was s very friendlywaitress. The food was very good and we would definitely go back again. Let the parking guy know you have dinner reservationsand he will let you know where to park. Read more
Excellent place to eat. We had breakfast. You can sit outside for a ocean view or eat inside. Although if you sit outside they... have these rolling track bench seat they should do away with. Not comfortable to sit in and very hard to get in and out of Read more
A hostess said we could have gazebo seating and not long after we sat down with our menus the "main" hostess came up to us... telling us we couldn't actually sit there! She ended up letting us stay however the lack of communication between the managersand staff seems non-existent. They have stated at their doors that they're understaffed but that doesn't excuse carelessmanagers. Waitress was fantastic, didn't bug us too much. I ordered a Steak Sandwich and it was fantastically sad. It was overdone coming with "Monterey Jack" cheese, which was just cheddar. My dissapointment was immeasurable and my day was thankfullynot ruined no thanks to Sunset bar or whatever this waste of a rooftop is called. Read more
This restaurant is located on the 6th floor of the Lani Kai Resort. Parking is not free. The parking attendant, an older bald,... heavy set man, is pretty gruff and does not appear to like his job. He was yelling at people constantly. He even yelled at ourLyft driver for wanting to drop us off closer to the elevator as I have a disability. We took a Lyft over here. In order to getto the restaurant part, you need to go up an old elevator that holds 6 people, go through a loud, rowdy bar and then you get tothe outdoor seating. Even though we called early in the morning to reserve the swinging table next to the view, and werepromised it, they said they did not receive our reservation and it was made for another indoor restaurant up there! So then wehad to speak to the manager, 2 servers and finally after waiting for other diners to leave, we were able to get the table werequested in the morning. We ordered Crab Cakes, which tasted mediocre and Clam Strips with fries. Nothing special. Our mainreason for going there was to catch the Sunset, which they advertise. And we did get to see it. Just don't expect much and youwill be happy if you get the view tables. The entire place needs remodeling badly. No one was wearing a mask that we couldsee..neither staff nor customers. Read more
What a great place to watch the world go bye and have a great bite to eat with a great strong drink at a fair price! Our server... Megan was AMAZING! She greeted us with a smile and interacted with us throughout the evening! We asked if we can stay till theyclose and she didn't skip a beat and said of course I'll be happy to take care of you! Let me tell you she nailed it, verypersonal, happy to be at work considering it was a holiday! Can't wait to go back and I hope she's working, as we will be askingto sit in her section!!! See you all there! Read more
I had the grilled fish sandwich... The bun was good.. the slice of tomato was bigger than the piece of fish on the... sandwich.. The sun deck at Lani Kai is all about atmosphere. It's on the beach and has a great view. !! The rum runners aregreat! But the food is not that good. At least this is my experience.. been here 10 times or so over the last few months. eachtime the food quality was about the same. Not good. Good place to have a drink thou. Read more
