Very impressed with the refurb. Outdoor area is great as is indoor. Food was pretty good.... pub meal but good none the less. In all fairness I think the menu sounds fantastic but in reality it is exactly what it is, just doesn't quite live up to the description, but only by a pinch.<br />Having said that I would really like you to put Bethany on your Outstanding Service list Rita.<br />She was so helpful, knew every aspect of the menu, offered suggestions when I {of course} was undecided, and in general was the epitome of great service.<br />Yes we will return... great atmosphere, very local for us, clean,tidy,well presented, and the coup de grace....

First, review the bill to see whether this is the actual charge or the authorization. Restaurants will sometimes authorize an amount that includes an estimated tip, to make sure there is adequate credit. If the unapproved tip appears on your final statement, we recommend you contact the restaurant for a refund.Seafood Napleshttp://www.couponsiwant.com/florida/naples_seafood_and_sushi_coupons.htmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089273951617856289.post-50444269089219849662010-11-18T22:47:58.185+11:002010-11-18T22:47:58.185+11:00That better NOT be the last time you comp me a mea...That better NOT be the last time you comp me a meal, Anon 5.15!<br />As I only had one mouthful of the CONFIT DUCK, which was probably delicious, it would be unfair to comment on it, or mention it here! As it was, as I commented at the time you cleared back the plates, my mouth had the pepper sauce flavour in it when I sampled the duck so, so too hard to taste properly. I had my own confit duck recently, as you might well know....which was stunning! Cooleys will have to try and top that one!
