We had a rehearsal dinner last week at Traders for my son and his fiance. We had never visited Sanibel before and the manager was very helpful in setting things up for us. All 25 guests commented on how delicious the food was. The wait staff was attentive and courteous. I was a little nervous about hosting an event as important as this in an unfamiliar place but everything turned out wonderfully.
My husband and I went to traders our last night on sanniblel. I had the mahi mahi which was the chef's special with rice and black beans. It was incredible! My husband tried the seabass and it was very good as well. The crab spring rolls were fabulous!! yummy!! A little expensive but very well worth it. I was a little disappointed there was no dessert menu, i was ready to go all out!!
My wife and I have been to Sanibel 5 times in the last 10 years. We always go in November, since both our birthdays and our anniversary occur within the same week. Traders has been our pick for anniversary dinner each time and we've never been disappointed. The food has been fresh, the service great and the taste is great. We also like to 'kick around' the retail store and always seem to find a souvenir to take home to remind us of our stay on the island and our great meal at Traders. Last time my wife had the scallops (can't remember how they prepared them), but she raved about them the rest of the night. Can't understand any of the negative reviews...maybe they were there only once and had a server who was having a bad day.
It's hard to have a bad meal when you're on the island!
Now. Let me just say that the food was not bad. Actually the soup was really excellent. But my mother ordered a chicken salad only to be brought salad with fish on top of it. So she sent it back so get her chicken. When she got it back it smelled like fish. They had obviously just replaced her fish with the chicken. Which is illegal and not sanitary. Thank god she wasn't allergic, but what if she was??? I would NEVER go here again. The food is WAY overpriced anyway. They could have killed her if she had an allergy and didn't realize the smell. horrible!
