The waterfront ambiance of the Boathouse on Naples Bay is as enticing as the food and at the heart of Naples’ history. Spectacular views, great food, friendly seasoned staff, and a very relaxed attitude.

Even though the restaurant got slammed with people after the St. Patrick’s Day parade, the wait staff was attentive and kept us informed on the status of the delivery of our meals. Everyone we encountered was polite, smiling, and apologetic. We have been to The Boat House numerous times and this was truly the busiest we have ever seen it. So hats off to the staff for keeping everyone happy. On another note, the food was great, as usual!

The food was good. It took 35 minutes just to get our appetizers. But on the up and up, I definitely will be back

Disappointing! Food was not good at all. Seared Tuna was eh, guessing it was frozen. Very little flavor and small portion. Smoked Salmon was basically just salmon with capers and served with stale crackers that were served in the wrapper. Again, very little flavor. Steak & Blue Cheese Flatbread was a good portion though. Flatbread was not cut and the steak / cheese was all piled in one area pretty much. Steak was pretty fatty but at least this had some flavor. Service was decent but our server was spread thin as he had a lot of tables. First and Last visit!

The Boathouse is one of my two favorite restaurants in Naples. The food is always delicious and the service is excellent. Everyone in my party loved their food. If it's available, order the Trigger fish - it is outstanding!
