Tarpon Lodge Restaurant

The food is beyond exquisite. The customer service and hospitality is A+++. The staff are so polite, kind and classy. It was a wonderful experience having a fancy and delicious yummy Brunch. Thank you, Chrisdyan for your kindness and awesome service. The food was out of this world. Highly recommend this amazing historical establishment! Bon Appetite!

First time here and it was so amazing from the food to the service to the atmosphere. It felt dream like. We enjoyed the complementary bread service. To start we ordered the buffalo crab dip, and the crab & corn chowder. For my entree I had jumbo lump crab pappardelle. (I love crab lol) It was all delicious. We had our reservation at 5pm, and by the time we were finished with everything we got to enjoy a perfect sunset at 6pm. I bought a shirt from their wide selection of shirts in the gift shop where the woman working was able to help me find my size. When we were leaving and in the car- my nephew realized he forgot his bottle on the table and just as we were about to rush back inside in hopes of it still being there I received a phone call letting me know they had it safely secured.

While on a business trip I stopped in for lunch and found myself transported back in time to a Florida I wish I could have known. The area is beautiful but the lobby and photos on the wall are priceless. The service is fantastic and the view of the Gulf is gorgeous. Only wish I could have stayed for dinner but the lunch menus have plenty of great choices. I enjoyed the blackened fresh red fish tacos. Seasoned perfectly and moist. The black beans and rice are a nice addition as is the fresh coleslaw. Unsweetened tea is refreshing. I’m excited to return and stay in the lodge.

I don’t want to leave a good review… I don’t want this place to get overwhelmed. I want to keep it a secret. This is by far the best restaurant in SW Florida all considering.. location, food, staff, ambiance and value. The view of the sunset from our dining table was spectacular. The food fresh and delicious. The ambience was amazing. And staff absolutely wonderful. Definitely will be dining again. 👍

Hands down our favorite place to take our close guests to enjoy a picturesque drive, lovely sunset and most importantly fine dining and great service. Our server, Chrisdyan, was amazing! Her mannerism, recommendations and food delivery timing was spot on! Our guests raved all night about our dining experience.
