Terrific food. Easily one of the top on the island. Fish specials are always good, as is the lobster ravioli that comes with some. Traders is one of the few consistently good ones here.
Andrea D'AmbrosioNovember 1, 2015My favorite dinner restaurant on Sanibel Island. Everything on the menu is fantastic! And it has the best gift shop
Mindy PierceFebruary 13, 2013Come when Sanibel legend Danny Morgan is performing! Oh- and the food is amazing too! We'll be back for Valentine's Day!
Traders Store and Cafe is one of the best eateries on Sanibel. Lunch and dinner is wonderful here. Eat in the bar area for a fun experience.
Jerry EdelmanOctober 31, 2013This is our "favorite" restaurant on Sanibel. We eat there at least once a week. Great food and great service and then there's Leslie our greatest server. Going tonight, see you there.
Maurice SmithJanuary 3, 2013Highly recommended and for good reason! The bartender remembered us and our drinks! LOVE this place!!!
Erin HelgrenJuly 6, 2013Great place for family dinner. If the Shellfish Pasta is one of the daily specials, order it. Amazing. !- Kelly LilesMay 14, 2012Grilled portabello and lobster ravioli isdelicious!! 3-6 happy hour and smaller portions make for perfect dinner and drink!
Christopher LongJanuary 3, 2015In general, overpriced for the quality of the food. Oysters were good, as were the PEI Mussels. Scallops with Lobster Ravioli (pictured) was fine; Sea Bass was fishy and very disappointing.
Libby McMillanApril 8, 2010Trader's has a great happy hour, fom 4-6 pm, with discounted appetizers and drinks. On Tuesdays and Thursdays island troubador Danny Morgan heats up the bar with live music til the wee hours.
Ryan StonerOctober 28, 2012Stoner family local favorite in the island. Enjoy great island food with friends.
Dale SuslickJune 1, 2012Great dinner on 6/1/12!!! Wonderful service. BIG portion of lobster, shrimp & more that two of us spilt #Value
Kim N CarswellJuly 8, 2013Ask for Parmesan cheese to drizzle on fresh bread after a dip of spiced olive oil- Jeff BowserJuly 23, 2011Some of the best fish entrees I've had anywhere, ever. Horseradish encrusted salmon and triple tail, we shared, and couldn't decide which was better.
PowderfingerMarch 22, 2012Ethan W. (who said this place wasn't very good) obviously has a stocked stuck up his ass. Food (and ambience) here is fantastic.
Doug CullenFebruary 1, 2012Forget the apple crisp. Mud pie all the way. Wow. And I live apple stuff.
Budget tip: go for lunch! (11am-2pm) great food with half the price and no crowd!
- Great Food and Service at a good price. Danny Morgan on Thursday nights for the best Island music
Marty HallNovember 6, 2016Blue crabcakes were okay. Do not order the lamb. Looked like it was done in a vrockpot. No seasoning. Well done. Tasted like unseasoned roast beef. Very disappointed.
Ethan WestonMay 17, 2011This place isn't very good. Definitely not the best on the island as is claimed.
Gadi ShamiaNovember 24, 2011If you like overpriced, pretentious and mediocre food- this is your place.
