The Veranda - Fort Myers

We love this restaurant. We've been there a few times and it was perfect every time. I love everything about this place except for one thing. We ordered the scallops and there were only 2. I would rather have 3 scallops and pay a few more dollars but you never make a plate with an even number and especially not 2 of anything no matter what the market price is. Other than the scallops its a great restaurant.

Dinner was wonderful and Service was great. We had a lovely time

Love this place, quality food wonderful service, will be back.

The atmosphere was very romantic. From Valet to the end of our meal we felt pampered. We sat outside on the big open deck. It was carefully designed and simply illuminated enough. The koi pond was a beautiful touch. The food was also incredible. The homemade bread was a great start. I had the seafood procuitto fatuccine and enjoyed every last bite. My friend enjoyed ribeye, potatoes and onion straw. She finished with the cream’ brûlée she said was good, but needed more vanilla taste. I finished with a delicious cappuccino. The wine list was long and next time I definitely have to taste a bottle. The wine through the glass is limited to an option in Merlot, Cabernet and Pinot Noir. I lean on wine mixes and felt no more than a glass at night. After all, our waiter John was friendly and prompt. He had a lot of menu knowledge and we enjoyed the information he had about places to go in Ft. Myers during our stay. We'll be here on the next holiday. Very recommended to check this.

Our second visit to the veranda. Saw at the bar and met an amazing young lady, Vanessa. Bar delicate, waitress extraordinary! Wonderful food and atmosphere. Escargot was beyond the description, rich blue cheese taste with a fluffy pastry. Blackened shrimps with a pineapple carpaccio, and finally perfectly seasoned scallops. Our first trip, the same wonderful kitchen with a creepy older waiter that we deliberately avoid this trip. Oddly enough he was obviously still rude as we were happy enough to observe his interactions with Peers over our bar stool. Experience should never allow for restlessness. He's coming as a cop. Shame on him! Again! Enjoy the pianoman!!
