Mucky Duck staff are extremely friendly and accommodating! This is one of the most spectacular views of the ocean in Captiva. It's a HIDDEN GEM! I am usually plant based but due to circumstances I opted for a filet. They cooked it to perfection! Lots of great seafood choices and something for everyone!

My family has come here for 30+ years. It’s my favorite restrung on the island with super fresh sea food and a great vibe! We had our best scallops on our trip here and the bisque is incredible! Highly recommend!

Great place for lunch! Outdoor & indoor seating, but preferred outside because of the views, the breeze and the atmosphere. Drinks you get yourself at the bar (there is one inside and outside), parking is limited so come early and food was good! When you have a place with such a great location, sometimes the food can be subpar but they get away with it because of where they are. This is not that place. I can only speak to the lunches, but it's always enjoyable. Yes, it is a little touristy because of its location, but not to an annoying degree like some places can get. Highly recommend this stop, it is always on our list of places to hit while we're on the islands!

My husband and I went to the Mucky Duck on our honeymoon in December of 2021 as a recommendation via my parents who also came here on their honeymoon 30 years ago. Spectacular food & stunning view. We had the BBQ Shrimp, Red Snapper special, Key Lime Pie, and the Caramel Apple cheesecake! Service was prompt, attentive, and food came quick. We LOVED this stop! If you’re going to try this place - come early to get a seat for sunset! It’s a very popular spot!

Don't know but they are known for the sunset. You can order and eat until sundown and get up, leave your meal and come back after the sun sets. Awesome. I actually never order pasta in a restaurant but it looked so good when a waiter walked by that I did. It was great!

My husband and I along with our two boys ate at "The Mucky Duck" in the early to mid 90"s. The restaurant we ate at was on Ft.Myers Beach. We even have a souvenir glass from there, of which we still have. The Captiva location says their the only one

Donna Lemaster | Jul 1, 2019
Donna Lemaster | Jul 2, 2019

Did some more research. And, their was the was that Ft.Myers location for awhile. Evidently, due to beach erosion at Captiva in case they had to close at some point. That lot is still vacant in Ft. Myers when it was torn down. There was another restaurant called Smitty's I believe in that building before closing.

No, Captiva faired well in the storm. Some homes with wind damage, trees down. Power out, but thats normal hurricane stuff. Nothing major for the most part.
