The Dock at Crayton Cove
How to book: walk-in-friendly — a casual bay-front institution; go off-peak (early lunch/dinner) and expect a wait at prime hours and Sunday brunch. Some reservations are taken (OpenTable), but it's really a drop-in local spot. The play: a waterfront table at sunset for a casual seafood-and-tropical-drinks meal; Sunday brunch is the award-winner.
Best meal: A casual lunch or early dinner on the bay — coastal seafood, sandwiches, ribs, and tropical drinks; or the award-winning Sunday brunch. It's the relaxed, boats-going-by counterpoint to the fine-dining rooms. Confirm the current menu on site.
Who it’s NOT for: fine-dining seekers wanting a formal room (this is casual/open-air) anyone needing a guaranteed locked table at a fixed time (largely walk-in) diners wanting a Gulf-BEACH view (it's on Naples BAY not the beach)
