Captain Marco's Seafood - New find Cuban Restaurant in Naples

We've been passing this cute place for two years and have been meaning to give it a try.  It got 4 1/2 stars on Tripadvisor.  Last night we finally gave it a shot.

Walk in and see some really nice fish and seafood on display.  Our reservation was honored, so we got seated immediately.  Brought a very big Petit Syrah.  They have a $10 corkage fee.  Very reasonable.  Their wine choices are very limited so I recommend u BYO.

Waitresses were very sweet and enthusiastic about the food.  

Cuban food included ceviches, fish, pork and beef choices.

Started by sharing the mixed fish and shrimp ceviche.  It was very fresh, spicy,

And had some coconut milk along with the lime, onions, etc.  we loved it.

Barb always goes the healthier route and had Mahi Mahi with vegetables that were nicely prepped along with asparagus.

  I ordered the roasted pork shoulder with yellow rice and plantains. 

 They also brought me some of the best onion rings I've ever had.  

The waitress told us if we gave a "like" on Facebook, we'd get a free order of Flan.  Since we had loved our meal, we did so and got a delicious Flan for dessert.  Forgot to take a picture.  

Total damage with 20% tip: $68.

Cafe Lurcat, Naples, Florida

Finally escaped the cold.  Snow three times in one week before winter starts.  What happened to global warming?

First night at Finn Bistro on Marco. (See previous post).

Last night went to Cafe Lurcat on 5th street in Naples. Upstairs balcony is great place to sit.  Staff is all really nice and helpful.  Very nice house specialty drinks. I had a "New Fashion" and my friend had a Lychee Martini. Both were excellent.

Wine list is okay and a bit overpriced for me. Probably because I'm cheap and prefer to BYO and pay corkage.

Food was great:

Steak tartare...yum.

Ceviche was tasty.

Apple and chive salad with Manchego cheese.  Very refreshing.

Already started roasted Brussels Sprouts.  Not usually a fan, but these we're great.

Dover Sole special with Cauliflower purée.  Delicious.

Seared tuna was made perfectly as requested: very rare.

Roasted yellow beets: always one of my favorites. 

Pasta Nero with shrimp. A classic dish that they made perfectly.

We enjoyed a nice cheese plate for dessert with some simple Port.

Considering the great staff, ambiance and food, this place is way up there on my list of places to fine nicely in Naples.

What to wear?  A tuxedo or shorts and flip flops are both acceptable...the beauty of this area.
