What to Eat in Fort Myers

Fringed by both the Gulf of Mexico and the Caloosahatchee River, Fort Myers' menus are dominated by seafood. For the catch of the day, recent visitors recommend Skip One Seafood Market south of downtown, known for catching its own shrimp as well as local favorite Prawnbroker Restaurant and Fish Market. If you're looking for a unique experience, try The Veranda, located in two early 20th-century homes near the historic downtown district, or Roadhouse which provides live jazz music during dinner. Families in town for a beach vacation also have an abundance of more casual establishments to choose from. There are also a bevy of chain and fast-food restaurants around U.S. 41 and College Parkway. You can't go wrong with restaurants like Capone's Coal Fired Pizza or Mel's Diner Fort Myers.
