Restaurants near Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary

We had a 7:00 pm reservation and we were promptly seated at 7:00 pm. When I made the reservation I asked to be seated in the quieter area of the restaurant, which they did. Our waitress, Veronica, was great and made several recommendations on entrees. She was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was cooked to perfection and was delicious. We had the lump crab and shrimp stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer and it was delicious. I had the 8 oz filet mignon, medium/rare with the broccolini and mashed potatoes. It was excellent. Cooked just right and the portion size was satisfying. My wife had the roasted mushroom flatbread and it was delicious. We truly enjoyed our Christmas Eve dinner at Season 52.

The restaurant was very busy on Christmas Eve so it was noisy. However, that did not at all take away from our dining experience. Our server, Alana, was fantastic; always checking on us to make sure everything was as expected and we had everything we needed. We started with crab cake appetizers that were the best I have ever had. They are all crab meat, no filler!! My husband had the short rib ragu with tortellini that he loved. I had the salmon dish with mashed potatoes, mushroom gravy and asparagus. everything was outstanding. We both took half home so we could have room for dessert. In the past I have not like tiramisu but I had it in Italy and loved it so decided to try it tonight. It did NOT disappoint! Just the right blend of flavors and texture for me. We have dined here several times in the past and have never been disappointed.

Sat near the kitchen. Felt like I was watching The Bear! The kitchen staff was amazing. Organized, efficient, team focused and great attitudes. Kudos to the team. Our waitress was awesome, too! Pleasant, knowledgeable, witty and helpful. Even took photos for us for my husbands bday. And she was busy too! Dinner was awesome we all loved our apps and meals! Always great at the Hawk!

Capital Grill never disappoints. Never. Whether you order meat or fish, both will be equally lovingly prepared and savored. There are a lot of bests at the Naples Capital Grill. Best wedge salad. Ever. Period. Best truffle fries, creamed spinach. Best veggies served crisp tender. I mean, what omnivore takes leftover vegetables home? Me. Had them for breakfast. The mains are always at the top of my best list. We had sea bass, salmon and tuna tartare. Such a special treat. But the absolute highlight of the evening was our waiter, Devan. He was personable, knowledgeable, and more than willing to time our food to accommodate our special needs guest. He made us feel like we were his only table. He is a treasure. We will ask to be at his table in the future.

Met a friend for early dining menu. Happy Hour is fantastic pricing! $5 house wine, early dining menu, with very nice selection and portions. The service and ambiance were outstanding. I had the Zuppa (Pasta e Fagioli) and sampled my friend's eggplant rollatini; both were excellent! I had the shrimp basil entree selection, and although it was very good, it was slightly salty. Truly a 4.5 as the experience more than earned my return! I could have been satisfied with the superb service and the herb butter and fresh bread alone, along with my wine! LOL, A Must Go! Very nice desert menu but heavy on the lemon. There also was a wonderful guitar player playing soft music, not over done, perfect for the atmosphere!
