The food was excellent! Great BBQ great drinks. I will definitely come back next year when in Ft. Myers.
We like their smoked wings. During HH Monday-Friday, it's $1. The tap wall was a really fun and cool idea that customers used to get a bracelet to scan and self-serve. Unfortunately, they just recently changed it and your server will get you the beer. The place is decorated cozy like a ski lodge. It is definitely nice and festive during the holiday season.
Thank you so much Lisa, for your help! Everything exceeded expectations. We had a reserved table upon arrival for a b-day pub crawl. The service was great, drinks were wonderful and the sandwiches were perfect!
The drinks were priced fairly. The food was a bit expensive but it had great taste. The brisket burnt tips were out of this world. The surf and turf was good but small portions. It seems more of an appetizer than a meal. The Pitt master combo was good.
Everything was fantastic on Valentine's Day. Service. Food. And atmosphere is excellent. Portions are more than enough. Great time.
Went for dinner on a Friday night. We were seated right away. I ordered a mule and it was delicious. We ordered and were served right away. The food was delicious. We got the bison and the tacos. The side of corn bread was a bit thick. The tacos were amazing. The baked beans and coleslaw were also very flavorful. We will definitely be going back. The music was nice.
Visited The Lodge with my team for a celebration. The ambiance was awesome. I really felt like I was in a cabin somewhere in the mountains except we were in sunny florida when we walked out! I knew as soon as I saw they had Brussel sprouts I had to order! I'm allergic to pecans so I ordered them on the side but the spicy bacon jam and goat cheese on top was an absolute dream! I'm so glad I ordered these I'd definitely go back just for the Brussels! Now my entree was not that great. I ordered the Fish n Chips which was listed on the menu as "A Lodge Favorite" not sure who's favorite this was but it definitely missed the mark. The fish was huge which had me excited when it first got to the table but it was lacking flavor. I added lemon but it was still missing some flavor. I boxed it up and gave it to a unhoused person nearby. Overall a good experience and I would go back just would order a different entree next time. But those Brussels are definitely worth going back for over and over again! (Not pictured bc we ate them so fast they were gone in no time lol)
Had to celebrate July 4th downtown in Ft. Myers and no good celebration can happen without Blue Moon on tap, the best chicken wings in Southwest Florida and the famous cicharones (fried pork rinds) that goes great with the beer. Omg. I cannot enjoy without at least having these wings!! We had good service too, which was nice as it was busy. Of course but well with it!!!
First off fellow patrons a little harsh on this place wouldn't you say. I read a-lot of these reviews, wow, first thing let's take into consideration that this is a BBQ place not a five star Michelin restaurant on the French Riviera and you're not paying a small fortune by the end of your meal. The burnt ends were enough by themselves to go back not to mention our waitress was great. We had the Nashville chicken sandwich, the chicken fingers, and burnt ends: sides : Mac and cheese, corn bread, mashed potatoes, and beans. The high light was the burnt ends, Mac and cheese and service. Keep in mind all the other items were fair, but for an easy spot to grab a decent meal I say yes this restaurant is worth the money.
