Gramma Dot's is a cool dining experience. It is located in the Sanibel marina, and has a nice selection of food. Hands down favorite meal is their coconut shrmp - fried perfectly, with lots of taste. Can't wait to go back!! more

Gramma Dot's is my favorite restaurant in all of Sanibel Island! My favorite entree is the coconut shrimp. They are so tangy and crispy and pu cannot find better ones in all of florida. (I tried a bunch of other places) Also when it is time for dessert you have to get the key lime pie. It is so sweet... more

The tables were so close together I wanted to leave as soon as I arrived. We ordered drinks appetier crab cakes and the broiled grouper sandwich. Stale bread, sandwich had no flavor.

Wish I would have read this before going. We chose to go for dinner after a recommendation- sad to say. Food and service were poor. We felt rushed from the moment we walked in- around 6:30. Waitress was definitely interested in cleaning up and getting off instead of getting our order correct. As others have stated food was bland and... more

My husband and I ate here for lunch on our vacation. The food was good, not great. The restaurant is more like a diner. People were friendly but I was not impressed with the place. more

We had great anticipation about eating at Gramma Dot's Restaurant but were greatly dissapointed in the tasteless crab cake sandwich. It had too much bread filler and very little crab meat, 2-3 pieces. Sadly, we left very dissappointed after great anticipation of this highly regarded restaurant . I would like to know if they just had a bad day or... more

I go to Gramma Dots whenever I'm in Florida and every time it has been great all around. The coconut shrimp is a must and several of there salads are the best anywhere! It is a must visit if you haven't been to the island before. more
