Restaurants near Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge

Had a great experience at Tommy Bahamas. Service was excellent, food was great and the atmosphere was very pleasant. We ate outdoors on a slightly cool day and the heaters above kept it very comfortable. It’s a well run restaurant.

We were sat in a harshly high-lit smallish room that felt like a noisy event space or cafeteria. It was busy at 5:45! So I guess we were relegated to the less pleasant ambiance of the main dining area which is low lit and cozy. Food and service were both good however. So it’s the luck of the draw but would be so much better if they did more table lighting and turned down the overheads in that seating space.

My husband and I enjoyed a special not on the menu Waygu beef filet that we shared. Fabulous and cooked perfectly medium rare! And so was the carrot cake for dessert! That and a glass of Malbec made the meal!

This was out first time dining at DelMar and we really enjoyed it. We started at the bar to enjoy the tail end of happy hour and enjoyed a cocktail and some delicious olive flatbread. Drinks were tasty however I'd suggest to not serve that delicious margarita in a coupe glass with so much ice! Dinner was wonderful. Portions are not huge but just right. We ordered the octopus appetizer and for dinner the swordfish and snapper. When the fish arrived in 20 minutes we has asked if we could just have the appetizer and bring our meals after. (A food runner was the one bringing the dishes not our server.) He said hold on let me find out. A minute later a friendly manager came to our table and apologized for this error and said he's take care of this. Five minutes later the octopus arrived and it was outstanding! We wished there was a little more to the dish after sharing the one piece that was on the plate. The manager came back several times to check on our meals too. Both the snapper and swordfish dishes were delicious. Service was very good and consistent on a busy Saturday night. The ambiance is beautiful, the bartenders friendly and food is great. We will keep this place on our must visit again list!

Once again an OUTSTANDING experience. So many great places to choose from in this area but we feel CH is at the top! Can’t beat their service, the food and wine are exceptional. My wife raves about the GF menu too. Our server Racheal went above and beyond. Ask for her, she’s the best. That said, I can’t recall that we’ve ever had anything but great servers.
