Best Restaurants for Handcrafted Cocktails in South Naples

We’ve been here a couple of times and we love it! The service is top-notch. Our server we’ve had him multiple times it’s just amazing and on and on top of his game. Last night we went I had these reservations for about six weeks… When we arrived, they gave us this table that was basically in the middle of the entranceway. We were not happy with that table obviously and we asked if they could switch us to another four top. There was one right across the way, but that didn’t seem to work out. They did find us a table closer to the back which worked out well. The food is extraordinarily delicious. Every dish we had was better than the next. The biggest surprise was the big Alaska! It’s an old time dessert with a new time twist. It was absolutely phenomenal. If you haven’t been you must go.

My wife and I had a wonderful Valentine’s dinner at Ocean Prime. Our server, Juan, was one of the best we’ve had in quite some time and we eat out a lot. Fortunately, we were seated in the back room as the bar area and 5th Avenue side of the restaurant was VERY crowded and VERY noisy. It was 68 degrees in the back room when we arrived; however, as soon as we and another table mentioned it to Juan, he immediately turned it up to 72. My wife had the grouper and I had the ahi tuna. Both were generous portions, cooked just as requested and delicious. We will definitely return.

Even though due to traffic we were significantly late for our reservation, upon our arrival at the restaurant we were assure that we would be seated when a table became available. And after about a 45 minute wait we were seated. The food was delicious and service was great.

Josh was an excellent server. The food was great. We got there at the end of happy hour and the noise level was higher than we like but it did improve.

If you want great ambiance for dining then visit the restaurants of Mercato Naples. The Taverna Burntwood offers a wonderful atmosphere and great food. On this visit, we sat at the bar during Happy Hour (we don't even drink) to have some dinner off the Happy Hour Menu. It was hands down some of the best service ever received at any Burntwood Location and our food was terrific! HUGE SHOUT-OUT to the Bartenders Seth, Alise and Jaden as they were delightful and provided a great casual dining experience and even though busy checked back with us often to ensure we had all we needed. Also, it was a nice touch (even though just sitting at bar) to have some management team (Peter, Jamie and Julia) stop by to welcome us to the new concept and thank us for our business over the years. It's really nice when there are so many places to choose from for dining that you those you do dine at recognize your faces and loyalty.
