This is the best place we have eaten at in fort Myers! It's not just an incredible atmosphere and top notch service, but it is the most flavorful food and the best drinks we have had anywhere in ft Myers!! The general manager, Brain, is engaging, customer oriented and runs a hospitality oriented crew of incredible servers. Our server , Cynthia, was the best! We've had her twice and she always explains everything well, makes the best drink and sauce recommendations and is engaging and pleasant as she patiently waits for us to put in our order. Bit most of all, the food! Burst of flavor and so beautifully presented! You HAVE to give Sip and Sizzle a try! You won't be disappointed!

Such a fabulous restaurant! Very unique concept. The hot stone experience is so fun. We will definitely be back. There was 12 of us and everyone was thrilled with what they had. There was a slight mix up with the reservation when we got there and the restaurant made sure that they made it right! Five stars all the way around

Keeley was great as our server. Attentive and friendly. We had apps and the sizzle dinner was awesome. Definitely going back.

Unique, but the ventilation sucks my eyes burn the entire time. Would come back again if they figure out the ventilation. Espresso martinis are the best DownTown hands-down

10/10 and our waiter Cindy made the evening!

This new restaurant in Downtown Fort Myers didn’t disappoint. Service was top shelf (Mike) and we really enjoyed our hot stone dinner. Dessert was fantastic as well.

Our group of 6 had a great dinner at Sip & Sizzle. We loved the design of the space. The rotating shelves of bottles behind the bar is a nice feature, as are the single large banquette chairs arranged in an outward facing circle, each anchoring a table for 4. Drinks from the wide ranging "Sip" menu were interesting and warranted a second round. The table shared the Crostini Trio and Limoncello shrimp as starters, and we each ordered two proteins served on the signature sizzle stones. Our booth was a bit crowded once the food arrived (there is much more elbow room for parties of 6 at the tables outside), and our selections covered just about all of the options available on the "Sizzle" menu for proteins, sides and sauces. Everyone enjoyed their main course, and the novelty of the sizzle stones will probably age well (just like sharing a hibachi table at a favorite spot never gets old). The chocolate mousse and key lime bars were shared as dessert and we all agreed that we would definitely be dining at Sip & Sizzle again.

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time last night!! Our meals and wine were fantastic!!! The inside decor is unique and comfortable!!! We started with the small plate shrimp…so delicious!!! I had the hot stone with duck and halibut… It was amazing! It included two sides and three sauces. My boyfriend had the wilderness burger made from four different types of meat with fries and a salad…He devoured it! Our servers were wonderful… One of the owners even came over to speak to us! Totally recommend and five stars from me for everything!!!

Overall a great experience between staff & food !

First time in. Wow, what a transformation from the previous establishment. Beautifully done! We sat inside and enjoyed some cocktails (The Filthy Martini and Bombay Bramble). The Bramble was delicious, however I’d prefer a more traditional dirty martini…they took some liberties with theirs - not bad, just now what I had expected). We enjoyed the charcuterie board and our entrees. Only complaint and suggestion to the staff is to keep an eye on the sauces. Mine were clearly under a heat lamp way too long (a film had developed over one). It was easy to see and I had to stir it up to make it edible 🫤. Having said that, the food was outstanding as well as the service. It’ll be great to go back once they’ve got everything dialed in. Super stoked to try breakfast there when available. You guys did great - 2 more regulars. Best of luck!
