Pelican Bend sits on the water in Naples, with a casual marina setting that leans into outdoor seating and live music rather than a formal dining room. Regulars come back for the coconut dishes and margaritas that have become something of a signature here, alongside portions generous enough to be a running theme among visitors.
Service gets singled out often — staff kindness shows up repeatedly in what people say about the place — and the overall vibe leans toward a local gem more than a destination restaurant, the kind of spot people return to for the setting as much as the food.
