We had an absolutely amazing experience at Island View! Once you get up the elevator it's very classy and the manager, Chris,... was very kind and accommodating even though we didn't have a reservation. Our server Kris was also very attentive and warm. Itwas my birthday and the restaurant provided me with a free small champagne bottle and a free desert! The live singer also sangme happy birthday. It was so much fun and the food was delicious. We ordered a salad and our entrees came with salads and soups,and we also were provided with delicious warm bread with cheese stuffed in it. Vodka pasta was a 10/10! Everyone was so nice andchecked in on us several times. Beautiful views and not too loud or dark in the restaurant. I will definitely be going back???????? Read more
What a hidden gem on Fort Myers Beach! We ordered the Mussels for an app and they were absolutely amazing! Fresh and delicious!!... Our meals were perfect, our Server Stephanie was helpful and prompt, and the Manager Sean brought us the most delicious dinnerrolls we have ever tasted - butter and Parmesan outside and cream cheese inside!! YUM!!! We cannot recommend the Island Viewhighly enough!! Read more
This restaurant is located on the 6th floor of the Lani Kai Resort. We were in the outdoor section by the bar. Parking is not... free. The parking attendant, an older bald, heavy set man, is pretty gruff and does not appear to like his job. He was yellingat people constantly. He even yelled at our Lyft driver for wanting to drop us off closer to the elevator as I have adisability. We took a Lyft over here. In order to get to the restaurant part, you need to go up an old elevator that holds 6people, go through a loud, rowdy bar and then you get to the outdoor seating. Even though we called early in the morning toreserve the swinging table next to the view, and were promised it, they said they did not receive our reservation and it wasmade for another indoor restaurant up there! So then we had to speak to the manager, 2 servers and finally after waiting forother diners to leave, we were able to get the table we requested in the morning. We ordered Crab Cakes, which tasted mediocreand Clam Strips with fries. Nothing special. Our main reason for going there was to catch the Sunset, which they advertise. Andwe did get to see it. Just don't expect much and you will be happy if you get the view tables. The entire place needs remodelingbadly. No one was wearing a mask that we could see..neither staff nor customers. Read more
It's a bit tricky getting to the restaurant. When we arrived the outdoor glass elevator was being maintained. We used the... indoor elevator and went to the top floor. I believe it was called the sundeck. You walk to the sun deck bar-restaurant thenturn left. Walk through the doors and you'll arrive at the island view restaurant. We had an Awesome meal & attentive staff. Our waitress was Janesa who did a fabulous job. We listened to her suggestions then ordered a few of the items that shetalked about. The dinner rolls came out warm stuffed with cream cheese. This was an unexpected treat! For appetizers weordered the meatballs and the eggplant. The sauce is amazing. Entrees drunkin chicken picture attached with heaping portion. My husband got the smoked salmon pasta with a wine sauce. Again, this was very tasty. We had a couple rounds ofdrinks. There was live singer dinner music playing. Initially when we arrived it was a little loud and they turned itdown. The manager Sean checked in with us several times to see how our food was. The food came to our table hot. Overall, itwas a great experience and we plan to go back Friday night. Read more
Amazing place , second large group meal handled by their staff perfectly. The bride and groom tended to appropriately. Should... be 6 stars. SEAN SHORE Mai`tred , AVA AND Bethany were beyond professional. A classy decor and soothing music of croonerssetting an amazing mood, set by Sean Reid. If a beach fine dining is your jam this one is it!! Read more
