    Early dining is a great deal. Bottle of wine and two dinners for $49. Short ribs are the best!

    We arrived on time for our reservation and were promptly seated at a nice round table for 5. Orders for drinks were taken quickly. Unfortunately refills for water and tea were not as timely. The food was great, good presentation and taste. The waitress followed up to make sure everything was correct. A solid thumbs up for that because to me that is very important. We were not asked how we wanted the check and maybe that is our fault for not saying, but it came as one check and we had to ask for it to be split. Our waitress cheerfully did the split and all was right with the world. Good experience.

    Coming to M Waterfront Grille has become an annual Thanksgiving tradition for us. The traditional Thanksgiving dinner is absolutely delicious, and the portions are very generous. We were so full that we took our pumpkin pie to go to enjoy later. We sat outside along the water, and the ambience was relaxing. The service is always excellent - thank you to Amy - and we never were rushed despite being a busy holiday. We love going to Naples for the Thanksgiving weekend and to M Waterfront Grille for our holiday meal. It's a truly enjoyable dining experience.
