Sam Snead's Tavern at Lely Resort

Great for lunch after your round. Course was player friendly and in pretty decent shape.

Nice menu. Good atmosphere.
Not too expensive.

We came down to Sam Snead’s from north Naples to visit friends on the East Trail. In a nutshell it was one of the best meals and evenings we’ve had in the last several months. Everyone of our dishes from the starts to the mains were absolutely delicious. Two of us had the halibut, serviced with risotto. Excellent flavor and the fish done perfectly. I had forgotten how risotto tastes when it’s done just right. Another member of our party had the salmon and again perfectly done, flaky, great crust and not over cooked. Finally the fourth member had the crab cake and have to say they were good as any crab cake dish we’ve had on either Florida coast. Growing up in the Midwest who can resist a wedge salad. And the one they served was nearly perfect, and how I love real bacon bits. I also want to complement the restaurant for the great service. Our waiter timed everything well so we never felt rushed. He was always there if we needed anything. I will tell you Sam Snead’s is absolutely worth the drive. We will be back for sure!

Amazingly consistent quality food and service. In season or out, reliably excellent.

Great spot with lots of memorabilia on the walls. Good was good and our bartender-server did a fine job. The kitchen missed the boat on one of our orders but made corrected their mistake. Nice atmosphere.
