Restaurants near The Holocaust Museum & Education Center of Southwest Florida

On a busy night we received some great service. Drinks wereA touch slow getting out but the bar was really slammed. I had the seabass and it was incredible. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food and we all appreciated the excellent service

We were sat in a harshly high-lit smallish room that felt like a noisy event space or cafeteria. It was busy at 5:45! So I guess we were relegated to the less pleasant ambiance of the main dining area which is low lit and cozy. Food and service were both good however. So it’s the luck of the draw but would be so much better if they did more table lighting and turned down the overheads in that seating space.

My husband and I enjoyed a special not on the menu Waygu beef filet that we shared. Fabulous and cooked perfectly medium rare! And so was the carrot cake for dessert! That and a glass of Malbec made the meal!

I’m a creature of habit. I always can count on having the best meal at Swan River. I love the lightly fried grey sole and beet and sweet potato salad. And I always get the North/South chowder - delicious!! My husband was disappointed they don’t have the seafood tower on the menu anymore. But he devoured the fried seafood platter. Our server, Benjamin, was delightful in every way. Courteous, observant, and cheerful!

Awesome experience!!! The entire staff was pleasant and dedicated to customer service. We started out our evening with David at the first level lounge. Great mixologist and great conversation. Dinner was fantastic. All entrees were fresh and extremely well presented. Our server was polite and courteous. Dessert was fantastic as well. We’ll definitely be back. Kudos to Bayside.
