Pelican Larry's Raw Bar and Grill - Restaurant in Naples - 7785 Davis Blvd STE 101, USA

Great place to watch sports with good deals but would not order seafood again there despite them promoting themselves as a seafood sports restaurant and bar. The mussels were overcooked as all the shells were cracking and so brittle. They did not taste fresh at all. If went back would order non seafood pub grub. Was a friendly place with great numbers of TVs for sports fans.

2 weeks ago we had lunch at the Pelican on Davis. We’ve gone there for years. The most recent visit was notable. The food was excellent. We’re OK with bar food but we both mentioned how good the food was. New cook, new standards, don’t know but this was beyond bar food. Always a nice place to visit.

This is about the 5th time here in 2 months. Week after week the service is deplorable. The food is good, when it arrives 2 hours later. Don't come unless you want to spend the evening. The excuse, shift changes at 5 to 5:30 PM. Seriously, who changes shift in the middle of dinner service hours. I feel bad for the staff that shows up. Pelican Larry, you need to step up Your game. UPDATE: THE MANAGEMENT did come and apologize and comped two of our meals. In the end, the one meal that was wrong and was supposed to be grilled grouper came out as chicken, and was remade and sent home in a carry out box, and is now blacked grouper. Maybe we will give management one more try. Our oysters were great, beer was cold, our other 3 meals were fine. Slightly cold, but edible.

Pelican Larry’s was amazing! We started off with a round of drinks (the margs very superb) and then got the conch fritters and fresh oysters. Both were some of the best I’ve ever had. We had the beach bread and the shrimp quesadilla. The quesadilla had house made mango pineapple salsa that was to die for! Highly recommend this place! And Star took excellent care of us.

Jan 30, 2024 evening.Our server was Ali (spelling?) and she was fabulous as well as the conch fritters and Philly Cheese Sandwich!! We talked with the owner afterwards and said we could post a review for Ali which was 5 Star and he would let her know. Thanks Ali !! Jim and Lynda B.

This is essentially a big bar. It has several umbrella tables completely outside and a large open air area under the roof to eat. The server and bartender that checked on us a couple times were very attentive and friendly. Can't beat the service from my experience. The inlaws loved the peal and eat shrimp here and that's why we came and they were quite tasty as well as the grilled shrimp. The grilled grouper was very thick and good but was probably 1 minute undercooked. The grouper Ruben that wasn't on the newer menu that they did make anyway was pretty good. The conch fritters were good but just a little too moist in the center. Would definitely come here again.

I was over charged on how many drinks were served on more than one occasion. I questioned my bill for $110 and they changed it to $60. When I asked for the number of drinks we ordered the bill change to $48. I’ve seen others question their bills. I’ve got the receipts from them stealing from me. My bartender has been arrested for possession of controlled substances more than once. No manager to complain to, how about that. Go somewhere else. Rip off joint.

We had a couple of hours to kill before our VRBO was ready and we’re starving so we looked on google and Pelican Larry’s was close by so we decided to stop. It is obviously a hangout to watch football games and had a good atmosphere. We had fried pickles, calamari, mango shrimp a dilla, a Cesar salad and grilled Cesar wrap. The food was delicious and an excellent Bloody Mary! They have recently changed hands or management, I am not sure which and had new, young people in the kitchen so there was a little bit of a wait but it didn’t bother us. Once the kinks get worked out, this place will be rockin! I expected it to be more expensive because of the area, but it was really pretty reasonable IMO. We were so glad we turned around to hit this little bar.
