Reviews for BALEEN in Naples, FL
Beautiful location, we had an excellent meal, our table was outside and we can enjoy the beach panorama. We started with a... delicious plate of mixed row fish and shells followed by an exquisite Lobster bisque. I will recommend this restaurant to peoplelooking for a great location and good food.

We chose this restaurant for our family of 3 because we wanted to see the sunset while dining. The restaurant and view is... absolutely gorgeous. We had oysters and lobster bisque to start, the oysters were delicious and fresh, the lobster bisque wasthick and rich. My son had the fire grilled filet mignon, which he devoured, I had the chef’s selection grouper, and myhusband had the red snapper. I felt that the grouper could have used a bit more salt/seasoning but overall it was cookedperfectly and the risotto was delicious. We were too full for dessert this time. We will definitely return if we are in the areaagain. Read more
Baleen is top notch. The food is delicious and service is great. The fish tacos, rare ahi tuna salad, and lobster bisque were... wonderful. My only complaint is the cost - $26 for three fish tacos (no side - nope nothing) seems pretty steep to me. If youwanted an order of fries, they were $10. So if you want a really good meal, in a wonderful location, and are willing to pay forit - this place is great. Read more
During our last night, we had a private dinner on the beach at Baleen. Alexis Angelo, who worked with my husband to plan the... perfect menu with the chef was wonderful! Adriano who was our personal waiter for the dinner on the beach at Baleen was beyondamazing! The table he decorated for us with two dozen rose petals was stunning. He went above and beyond to make ourexperience special. Adriano should be a photographer on the side as he took the most amazing photographs for us as aremembrance. He spent a lot of time getting the right angles of the sunset and the photographs looked like a professional tookthem. Adriano was very personable and even sung to us in Italian during our dessert! My husband and I really appreciated thelevel of service we received from him, and it added to the amazing experience we had at Baleen. The dinner was so romantic andthe perfect way to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. Read more
5 stars for everything - bar, food, service, ambience, the view. And the service. So good it is worth repeating. Special thanks... to Rick, for taking such great care of us as we celebrated a very special milestone. We arrived a little early, got wonderfuldrinks at the bar, and headed directly out to the beach for sunset before dinner. Our outdoor table was perfectly situated forenjoying the remaining light before the torches and fire pits were lit. We are serious foodies and enjoyed every single bite ofeverything we ate. Beautiful plating, incredible quality, terrific attention to detail. We enjoyed the romantic rose on ourtable - such a great example of how we were treated and what made it so special. In all, this was a truly memorable, romantic,flawless experience from start to finish. Read more
BALEEN was truly exceptional! We stayed in the hotel upstairs and ate there four nights in a row. The service was excellent and... all the food we had was perfect. I highly recommend the grouper and NY strip. The calamari was great too. Lastly try getting aseat outside around sunset! Read more

One of the best Restaurant I have ever been to. We stayed at the resort for the weekend and we were able to enjoy brunch, lunch... and dinner. This place is amazing from top to bottom. It is well decorated, the beach front view is breath taking, theatmosphere is relax and it’s just makes the meals ten times better. Everything on the menu is amazing, I am from New Englandand I think we have the best lobster bisque, this place has change my mind, every scoop is filled with big chunks of lobster,it’s warm creamy, great flavor profile. Drinks are strong and very unique. My favorite meals were lobster Benedict , lobsterbisque, lobster bucatini, pan seared red snapper, A must try if you ever go. What makes this restaurant a top ten for me is thestaff, my waiter was BELFORT, he did an amazing job. He is very professional, knows everything about the menu, very attentive,great senses of humor. He elevated my experience to a whole another level. Also trust his judgment on the food. Overall a 10/10for me at this place and I can’t wait to come back. Read more
