I almost hate to rate this James Beard recognized cafe as a 1 star. We went with another couple who love their fish stew, a... clientele favorite. We were dinning at 5:30 and feel that both my wife's stew and my oysters were under cooked and over spicy.My wife had the octopus small plate appetizer. Tasted a bit like lobster, but it had a sauce that was like a strong BBQ saucethat over powered the octopus. My oysters were a bit gelatinous inside, under cooked. The mole sauce was way over powering andto be avoided. The seared top was heavily dusted with a very salty seasoning, I had to scrape it off or just tast salt. My cubedvegetables were also undercooked and without taste. My wife's stew was also undercooked, with raw garlic and other vegetables.Sorry, Melissa, likely won't be back. Read more

Warm, friendly atmosphere, accommodating service, well made drinks, fresh creative food. My husband had the duck; very good! I... had to try the award winning fish stew and was not disappointed.

It's not often that you find a restaurant while traveling that you love so much you go back for a second time! Melissa's... restaurant is not your average Sanibel "grouper" sandwich place. Her food is inspired, creative and sooooo good. As reviewedbelow it's way above 5 stars!! I enjoyed the James Beard Award Winning Fish Stew both times; IT WAS THAT GOOD! Creative menuofferings like crispy sweetbreads and goat cheese cheesecake. The night we were there they had carrot cake with triple cheesefrosting. Who does that!? They offer intimate outdoor dining and our servers was excellent with a delightful personality. Icannot say enough great things about this chef and restaurant. Try it you will not be disappointed. One of the best restaurantsever! I want to go back to Sanibel just for Sweet Melissa's Read more
