- GgayleGreater Boston •4 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe regularly frequent Terra Nostra and it doesn't disappoint. Starting with the bread, fresh out of the oven. I love the olive butter with oil, but my kids and husband don't so they request butter. The Caprese was fresh and delicious. My husband had the Marsala (always does) and LOVES it. I had Chicken Picatta and finished it all. So good. My son had lasagna.....delicious (a bit too cheesy for me), but he loved it and couldn't finish it. My other son had the veal Saltimbocca and loved it. I tried it and it was good but not my favorite, everyone is different! Ethan was our server, and he was so awesome, efficient, friendly, on top of it all. It was incredibly busy, and he didn't skip a beat. This restaurant is consistently excellent. The manager (sorry, don't know his name) is always there and on top of it all! We highly recommend!More infoTerra Nostra RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Italian• Fort Myers Beach•4.8
- MMarkCentral Kentucky •8 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe made reservations for 6pm with sunset at 6:20. Fortunately, we were seated directly in front of the huge picture windows facing the Gulf of America and got to see a lovely sunset. Tony, our waiter, was very knowledgable and attentive and had some great recommendations for food. Two of the staff recommended the pork chop. We tried it and it did not disappoint! It was delicious. Kudos to the JWB staff and chefs. Highly recommend.More infoJWB Grill Fort Myers BeachPrice: Expensive• American• Fort Myers Beach•4.7
- MMaryleeVIPSouthwest Florida •31 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoOutstanding experience tonight. Food was excellent. Two diners had the pretzel crusted pork chops, one had shrimp and scallop risotto and one Keaton's spaghetti. Everyone agreed their meal was definitely worth ordering again. Shout out to server Jessica, chef Janelle, manager Eugene and general manager extraordinaire Clair. A great evening with great friends made better by the great food. Well done Coopers Hawk Ft.
