The Local is located on the south side of the Bed Bath and Beyond plaza on the corner of Pine Ridge and Airport Pulling Road. The parking can be a little tight on that side of the plaza, but there is plenty of parking on the east side of the building. There is outdoor seating and plenty of seating inside this restaurant, which is a good thing for locals because we’re often working and not in vacation mode. The ambiance is modern but rustic with booths along the sides, tables in the middle and a wine (and beer) bar across the back. There are chalkboard signs displaying the specials. The service on my visit with great – very friendly and knowledgeable staff. All the food came out quickly and was prepared as ordered. The food is locally sourced and fresh – everything we had was very good. My only complaint is that they do not change the temperature of the burger – it comes one way, even when I asked if it could be done on the rare side, it still came out well done – but I was warned. This is a great lunch spot for local professionals.

Had a delicious lunch today! I had the watermelon salad with spicy honey on the side and the red lentil soup. My husband had the Turkey sandwich with tomato jam on a soft roll with a side salad. Everything was superb!!

Came for lunch and really enjoyed it. The lunch menu is different from the dinner menu and both have amazing things on it. We started with the vegan bruschetta which had almond cheese and was delicious. We tried the so icy fried chicken special sandwich which was excellent and the vegan Korean tacos, which were good but I preferred the chicken. We swapped the side salad for the spicy watermelon salad which was excellent. The staff is also super friendly and there is some outdoor seating available too. Will definitely be back.

All around great experience. The server was really good and knew the menu well. The food had flavor in every bit. It’s really cool to see a restaurant choosing local sourced food and pairing it so well together. I also love the creativeness of the dishes. We will be coming back for sure.

I really struggled with giving only 3 stars because I love this restaurant. Every time we come to Naples we go there at least once if not twice. Never disappointed. Tonight however, the service was terrible (thank goodness the food was great as usual). I drank all of my water and then had to drink my husband’s, still no one had noticed that I needed refill. We both had to work to get someone’s attention to bring water. Looked like someone that worked there’s family came in and EVERYONE flooded their attention to them.

I stopped into The Local Restaurant while I was in town for work. Instead of having a traditional entree, I choose to graze the menu. I started with the Olive Appetizer. It was filled with a large array of olives! For my “main” dish, I had their Roasted Brussels Sprouts and The Local Au Gratin Hash. Which I 10/10 recommend. And to finish it all off, I had the Gluten Free Chocolate Cake paired with a glass of Pinot Noir.

What a pleasant surprise to stumble upon this restaurant. The service and food were both top-notch. My husband had the mushroom pizza which was fantastic. I’m not vegan, but decided to try something different and had the vegan tacos with the Kale Caesar salad upgrade. I don’t know their secret to making a salad taste so good, but I could’ve eaten just that and been happy. The tacos were really good as well. We’re looking forward to checking out their Sunday brunch. Highly recommend this place!

Delicious! I’ve been wanting to check out The Local for some time and I’m really glad I finally did. I ordered the breakfast hash and added eggs! The flavors were amazing, the food was hot, and the service was great—even though the place was packed. Definitely grab a bite to eat in this cozy environment! You won’t regret it 🙂

Really good pot roast And the lentil soup was amazing. Unfortunately no full bar just wine. We had the dessert zillioni or whatever the doughnut looking things are called and they weren’t too sweet and just perfect for 2 people
