Cape Coral Restaurants
Restaurants in Cape Coral, Florida, demonstrated a tradition of ethnicity way ahead of the rest of dining in Southwest Florida, simply because it reflected the diversity of its population. Persons of Italian, German, Cuban, and Irish heritage first settled the new town on the banks of the Caloosahatchee River.
Still a good place to order a Cuban sandwich, some schnitzel, or homemade pasta, the dining scene has diversified in Cape Coral.
In recent years, new waterfront restaurants have popped up in condo and resort developments huddled around safe harbors, adding new American and seafood specialties to the menu. Shopping-dining centers on the north side of town have further diversified options.
Today, the sheer number of places to eat in Cape Coral will keep a foodie busy – and happily so -- for months.
