We just finished up a 6 hour pontoon ride on the river and intercoastal waterway and the owner of the pontoon recommended this place for a bite to eat. It was a very open and lively place with a nice view of the river next to I75. As you might expect with many river stops - it is set up with an island-like theme to have a good time at the bar...but there isn't much budget allocated to the bathrooms. The food and service were solid though, so I'd be up for stopping again on another day - especially after a long day on the water.
We had already eaten lunches and snacks on the pontoon so weren't that hungry, but did enjoy a tap beer and a Shrimp Basket (see picture). While the coleslaw quantity was minimal, the shrimp were crispy and tasty - and I really liked the dipping sauce.

Went for lunch and we have been trying ti get in here for a year.Every time we tried to crowed and no handicap parking. Today was perfect. Limited crowed so parking wasn't a issue. The beer is very cold and service was very good.We had pretzels bites and chips with cheese. Delicious!
Ordered the Asian rice bowl...
Out standing...
The only down flaw and it's not the stores fault it was 94° and the flys drove us nuts..
Good place you must try!
Fun casual fish camp style outdoor music dance floor bar with table service and different atmospheres for seating. Good food, great service, sunsets and occasional dolphin manatee or turtle. Lots of parking.
This has always been my favorite spot. It’s been a few years since I’ve been here and they’ve only gotten better! The food, the vibes, the views, and the service is all great. Lindsey was our server tonight and she was amazing and super sweet. She suggested the bang bang shrimp and I was blown away with the flavor. I always leave happy and full.
Awesome atmosphere on the water. They had a band and awesome food. My wife had tortilla chips and homemade shrimp and crab dip, and let me tell you, it was INCREDIBLE. I had an awesome fresh patted burger with there signature sauce and fries.
Food was excellent. I had bucket of grouper bites with Cole salad and French fries. It was great … accompanied with some live music that started about 5pm
Had a great time at an affordable place with a great view.
This place is one of my favorites!! Excellent service great atmosphere and awesome live bands!!! Food is the best!! Very Friendly Staff you will love it!! You will never go wrong here!!

First of all, when I pulled into the parking lot, I did not expect much from this place as it was not the fanciest place I have ever seen. We got there about 12 noon on a Saturday memorial weekend. This place was not full, but it was neatly organized and clean. Some tables were under the Tiki, some were out on the boat dock area with umbrellas to shade them and some were outside and inside the Gift Shop area yes, they have a separate Gift Shop. There was a 2nd bar out on the docks to help get drinks to people. There are lot of choices if you want to sit outside or inside with ac. If you sit under the Tiki, you can hear and see the musicians much better. Our waitress Missy came over fast and took our drink orders and left menus for us to look over. She came back with our drinks and took our orders and answered any of our questions being our 1st time there. I ordered Crab and Shrimp Dip for an appetizer. It consisted of Crab, Shrimp in a dip with Tortilla Chips. For my main dish I ordered the Seafood Boil which consisted of Shrimp, Mussels, Andouille Sausage, Potatoes and Corn all for 21.95 (it was on special) You could add a Lobster Tail for 15.00 extra which I did. One thing I found I really liked was Missy asked how I wanted my Seafood boil did I want it mild medium or Hot. Way to go guys now let’s see if it ends up like I ordered. The wife ordered a side salad as she wanted the lobster that I ordered with my meal. My dad ordered the BBQ Wings. My appetizer of Crab and Shrimp dip got delivered fast and I could not believe how good this was. I am telling you I have done tons of reviews all over SW Florida and this is the best I have ever had. To tell you the truth I could have eaten an entire large bowl of that dip. We were about ¾ way through my appetizer and our main dishes came out. My Seafood boil was very hot and seasoned perfectly just like I like I wanted. This dish was so good I was astonished. I can’t say enough how much I loved this dish and there was plenty of Sea food in my Boil to fill me up. My wife’s Lobster Tail was hot and seasoned to her liking as well. My wife’s Salad was plentiful for her to eat, and she loved it. My dad stated the wings were hot and seasoned perfectly. There was plenty for him to eat and he was done, he was full. The music did start a little late but it was nice to have it while we ate our meals, and it was not too loud so we could hear each other easily. This place hit on all cylinders for us. I cannot think of anything they did to get less than 5 stars from the service to the food to the music and even the vibe of the place was all terrific. The only thing they need to do, and this is not a deal breaker, is redo the men’s bathroom, it needs some real attention. If you get the chance to go you will not be disappointed. I know we will definitely be back. I give this place a top score of 5 stars, and I just don’t hand them out they have to earn them, and Woody’s did just that.
