We ate at this restaurant for our 5th anniversary. Atmosphere was quaint. We ordered the crab cakes which were good, the garnish was not. It was very Mexican which was strange as this is a seafood place. I had the flavored mango iced tea. We both had water. For our entrees we ordered the Lobster fettucini in butter garlic sauce.... more

My sister and her boyfriend were in town visiting from Ohio, so my boyfriend and I took them to the Tropical Reef after hearing how good the food was. We made a reservation, but when we got there, they made us sit in the other half of the building (formerly the Naples Cheesecake place) and wait because there were no... more

The best... more

The spicy, crunchy grouper (a TR specialty) was one of the best seafood dishes I’ve ever eaten, and the crab cakes and snapper were both really... more

We had a wonderful dinner with my husband and two children at this restaurant. We almost did not go because of the looks from the outside. It is in a strip mall and does not look like much. As soon as we walked in and smelled the delicious aroma we decided to stay. The inside is very nice with while... more

We just returned from Naples and this was one of our favorite restaurants! The seafood is truly outstanding!!! more

Small but wonderful. The fish is the best in the Naples area. The restaurant doesn't look like much from the outside, but inside a different story. Because of small space I would recommend reservations if you decide to go and go you should. more
