- GGeriGoldSouthwest Florida •9 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoBirthday celebration. Service..great! Lexi went above and beyond to make sure all 7 of the “party people” were happy with the food & drinks. She also helped with setting up with dishes etc..for the birthday cake we brought. We have a “family” lunch every few months at Burntwood..it’s centrally located for all of us at the Bell Tower. Service is always friendly, polite & professional. Food is good, reasonably priced & nice variety.More infoBurntwood Tavern - Bell Tower Shops$$$$• American• Villas•4.4

- JJoeGoldSouthwest Florida •153 reviews5.0Dined on May 19, 2026We had another great experience at Il Pomodoro! We had a party of 6, from the ages of 1.5 years to over the age requirement for Medicare! The server and Chefs made sure that the children’s food was promptly delivered, so the adults could have a quick cocktail and conversation before ordering our dinners. As usual, the food was delicious and the portions are large enough for another dinner the following night! Elliott was awesome and fulfilled all of our needs! It’s a great spot and we always brings our out-of-town guests and family members here at least once during their visit! Thanks Il Pomodoro!More infoil Pomodoro$$$$• Italian• Fort Myers•4.6
