After having dinner at the Capital Grille in Naples, Florida it never fails to amaze me. from the valet, to the front desk and Vlad as the ultime server it is still a premier dining experience. During the first part of our dinner there was medical incident in the room next to us. While EMS had to move the individual into an ambulance the staff was right there to provide assistance. A restaurant should also be judged by how they handle medical emergencies, and it was outstanding.

About the restaurant

Steps from Gulf Coast sunsets, Sails recalls the finest coastal flavors of France, Italy and Greece in each bite. Pairing the freshest food with exceptional five-star service amid beachy-chic décor, relaxed sophistication prevails at Sails, with a nod to the gracious manners of traditional fine dining, ever-so-slightly modernized. A display of whole fish delicacies from deep-azure seas are hand selected by each guest, then prepared to personalized perfection via wood-grilling or searing a la plancha. Sip craft cocktails or Sancerre while savoring just-shucked oysters at the sail-shaped hand-carved marble bar. Watch chefs in the open kitchen prepare tantalizing seafood towers. The menu encourages multitude courses in true European style starting with raw bar, crudo and tartares followed by luscious lobster or seared Kobé over just-picked organic produce. Elevated homemade pasta preludes composed seafood selections plus mouthwatering superior cuts of beef, redefining refined indulgence.

Forget New York, Chicago, Miami and Los Angeles. This was by far the best dining experience I have ever enjoyed in the United States. The quality, creativity and presentation of the food, combined with the impeccable service made this an experience that exceeded all my expectations. Certainly on par with any 1,2 or 3 Michelin Star restaurant that I have experienced in my travels around the world. Bravo! Well done Sails!

Much to our dismay a reservation for an advertised buffet with carving stations /extensive salad bar /appetizers/sides/ desserts became an omelette bar with breakfast sides -which though good , was not what we expected ! apparently the advertised Xmas Buffet was from two years ago and we barely made the cut for the breakfast buffet ! our reservation was for 11 AM and the breakfast Buffet stopped serving at 11 AM. We were seated since we showed our confirmed reservation! Staff was confused n it took a bit to sort it all out. Never have had trouble with open table reservation before but this was a mess!!!
