Cape Coral has some of the best, most flavorful dishes and restaurants around. We have a wide variety of cuisines to choose from and options that suit all palates and dietary restrictions. From waterfront dining to downtown spots Cape Coral and the surrounding cities have a plethora of options for your next meal. Below you will find both local eateries and chain restaurants. We recommend calling ahead for wait times, specials, and the most up to date information.
Seafood Restaurants Cape Coral
Most of the restaurants in SW Florida have seafood options as we are right on the Gulf of Mexico. In addition to the restaurants, there are many fishmongers and markets where you can find local, fresh seafood options. Florida is known to have many crab and fish sacks. In SW Florida, we are known for our grouper (try a fried grouper sandwich!).

Japanese and Asian Food Restaurants Cape Coral
You may not think of Japanese and Asian cuisines when you think of SW Florida, but we have a handful of options to choose from! Due to the popularity of our seafood you can find fresh and flavorful sushi and sashimi every day. From fast dining, like Sakura, to a hibachi experience, like Hana Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi, there are plenty of options to suit your needs.
Bakeries Cape Coral
Florida is frequently referred to as the “melting pot” of cultures and ethnicities. In the Cape Coral area that is shown in not only our restaurants, but in our bakeries, too! There is no shortage of breads, pastries, and desserts to accompany your meals. We recommend the chocolate eclair at Amore, you won’t regret it!
Steakhouses Cape Coral
So, you’re craving a steak? Fortunately for you we have local options to try, or if you would rather stick to a chain steakhouse you are familiar with, we have that, too. Our personal favorite at Vesteva is Bubba’s Roadhouse & Saloon but be prepared for a rustic experience. We recommend pairing your steak with onion rings or their loaded fries.
Italian Food Restaurants Cape Coral
There are almost as many Italian restaurants as seafood options here in The Cape. You will not be disappointed by the selection of pastas, pizzas, and desserts in the area. We don’t have a favorite Italian restaurant as there are many great choices, but we recommend trying pizza and calzones at Maria’s, pasta at Moretti’s, and wine pairing at Ariani’s. Buon Appetito!
Restaurants Cape Coral with Live Entertainment
Live entertainment is a big perk of Florida. You may see performers of all different kinds but primarily singers and bands. In fact, most restaurants post their entertainment schedule online so you can plan when to visit accordingly. Calling ahead is always an option, too. Enjoy a free show with your meal!

Miscellaneous Restaurants Cape Coral
While this list has great restaurants in Cape Coral for every category there are more than we could possibly list! Below you will find a few more dining options that we believe are gems, but we encourage you to go out and explore other eateries, too. SW Florida is truly one of a kind when it comes to dining options and the experiences you will have at them. Enjoy!
