   We recommend the Crab Cakes and the Sea Scallops Grenobloise The side of spinach was skimpy. Be wary of the Calimari appetizer which was heavily breaded, and contained not enough actual fish. Service was excellent. We sat on the cozy but comfortable deck with a nice view of the bay.

   Very dated. Had a funky smell, older furniture (our table was broken), food was not prepared well. The view is great, the location is great, but there are so many better restaurants in Naples for seafood for the same price.

   Very nice place for dinner with a view! We sat outside and very relaxing. Food was very good - not large portions but good quality. Key lime pie was excellent

   We had a 7pm reservation for 6 of us and was not seated till 7:40 pm. We had 2 drinks outside on deck / ramp entrance to restaurant overlooking parking lot& valets. Seafood was ok - grouper was overcooked for 2 out of 4 people. We ordered a bottle of white wine and we wanted another one and they ran Out of it. We waited awhile for our dinners . By the time they came we weren’t even hungry. We complained after our dinner to manager and they gave gave us a post card with 15% off a dinner another tome. There are so many more restaurants to go to than this one . We will not be back .

   Wasn’t bad but waited almost an hour for our food. Didn’t ask if we wanted refills while we waited. Didn’t bring more bread especially waiting that long. Maybe they should have given us appetizer since there was such a long wait. Definitely not the same experience from before. Not sure if it’s diff management but was def disappointed. Food was just satisfactory.

   I've been wanting to try the Boathouse for so long and finally made it. Very crowded. Even with a reservation we had to wait but our hostess Bella was wonderful. She kept in touch with us and gave us a perfect table with a beautiful view. Our server Lacee, although very busy, was attentive. Perfect ambience for this type of restaurant. The only thing I didn't care for were the blow up flowers hanging all around the restaurant. Maybe it was for spring or Easter but I felt it detracted from the overall theme. Very noisy. I'm sure it would be more quiet outside. Food was delicious. One of our gests had the Crab Key Chicken which she loved. 2 of us had the Lobster & Gulf Shrimp Saute which was excellent. Lobster tail with shrimp and large scallops, arugula and diced tomatoes in a garlic butter sauce. I highly recommend it.

   I had boathouse combo. The portions were large. I wouldn't mind a smaller portion and include a salad

    We mentioned to the waitstaff that the calamari and alligator appetizer was too salty. She did nothing to remedy the situation. We tried to get her attention to get our check because we had an appt. She ignored us twice and she was right at the table next to us. We dine at the boathouse often and this is the worst experience we have had and the reason was the service.
