Sanibel Island Restaurants At Beautiful Sanibel Island, FL

Sanibel Island Dining with Gulf View at Traditions.

"Traditions" decor is reminiscent of the Inn’s “Olde Florida” heritage. Paddle fans, white wooden shutters and furnishings enhance our classic Gulf view. Don’t miss the blowing of the Conch Shell to start the dinner hour every night at 5 pm.

Dinner selections include fresh fish, choice meats and savory poultry prepared to delight the most discerning palates. Dinner menu changes weekly and chef specials are offered nightly. Island Inn guests enjoy the option of the meal plan, which includes full breakfast and dinner at a very reasonable price included in their nightly room rate. Otherwise, a competitively priced a la Carte menu is offered to guests from in house or others via reservations. Dinner is served nightly during the winter from 5pm to 8:45pm and Thursday through Saturday during the summer from 5pm - 8pm. A children’s menu is available. Dinner is open to the public.

Dinner dress code suggests men wear collared shirt and dress pants. No jackets are required but often worn by some.

Dining is available between 5pm and 8:45pm during the winter. The early start time is to accommodate parents with their children. There is an optional children's menu that is anything but gourmet, but delightful to children for its familiarity and simplicity. Every effort is made to feed the children promptly when they arrive.

Breakfast is served daily in the winter from 7:30 to 10 am and features those all American classics – eggs, bacon, grits, waffles, hot cakes, French toast, plus juices and fresh seasonal fruit. Breakfast menu is also offered al a Carte and reservations are also encouraged but not required.

Sunday Brunch is served weekly from 10am-2pm and features smoked salmon, bagels with cream cheese, homemade warm blintzes, eggs Benedict, Crème Brûlée, French toast, and much more! Join us on Sundays for a leisurely brunch overlooking the sparkling beach and gulf waters. A Bloody Mary, Mimosa or the inn's signature drink, a Bellini, is just what's needed to complete your Sunday brunch menu.
