The waterfront ambiance of the Boathouse on Naples Bay is as enticing as the food and at the heart of Naples’ history. Spectacular views, great food, friendly seasoned staff, and a very relaxed attitude.

Nice view of the water. A bit noisy for conversation. The entrees were a bit pricey considering they didn’t come with sides. Service was attentive.

Service was extremely slow at 8:15. Food portions small for the price. Sides are all additional. One small piece of fish served on a large plate for $34.

Beautiful view of the water. Inside is very noisy out side on deck service was slow. We had to wait a half hour for our reservation which is not unusual for this time of year. Waitress was great but had so many tables we had to wait another 15 minutes for drinks. Kitchen must have been backed up, we waited a long time for our food. Scallops were delicious, soup wasn't very hot. I think they were just short staffed.

The menu selection at the Boathouse on Naples Bay is extensive. And the food was good. However the wait for our reservation was longer than it should have been and our table for three of us was too large for us to be able to hear one another. Our waiter was a highlight of the evening!

I would say the main attraction of this restaurant is that it is on the water. The food was ok. Lobster bisque was weirdly thick and gloppy. I had the stuffed shrimp and was not impressed. My husband had the filet and crab cake and again a solid B-. We had a reservation but had to wait an extra 15 min which was the same for many others.
