We visited this restaurant during our June 2008 Sanibel vacation and the food and service was great. Everybody had something different and we all liked our food. The wait staff were prompt and even helped us celebrate a family birthday with a piece of carrot cake (amazing) and a candle. We did call ahead for a reservation and our table was waiting for us on arrival. The prices were a bit high, but that is pretty much the way it is on the island, they weren't out of line with other restaurants and were probably a little more reasonable than most. Would definitely go back.

We visited Doc Fords on a weekday evening and had a wonderful experience.

We were seated promptly and our waitress took care of us well. She (waitress) could have possibly been a little more friendly.....but the fact is she did her job very well.

There is a bit of a noise level in the restaurant that takes you a few minutes to get accustomed to at first, but after that you're fine.

The food was fantastic. I had a clubhouse sandwich (can't recall their actual name for it) and it was without a doubt the best I have ever had. The thing was huge and piled high with all the good stuff along with a car load of fries. The others in my party also spoke highly of their meals.

Give it a try....great food at decent prices.

We had dinner one night while vacationing in Sanibel. Great place, I had fish tacs, very good, can't recall what hubby ordered but all was very good and so was the service. Definately check this place out while in Sanibel. Yummy drinks too.

We ate both lunch and a dinner at Doc Ford's on Memorial Day weekend, and enjoyed the food. The atmosphere is your typical sports bar, nothing extra, but the food was consistently exceptional at both meals.
