    Took new Naples residents to BSG and as we have always thought, they loved it, form the view to the service and our meals. We have been many times, but had we had never tried the Shrimp and crab Pasta. It was one of the finest pasta dishes I have had in Naples……and that is a great compliment! Tons of Lump Crap and 5 large Shrimp in a delicate broth……wonderful!

    I ordered the ribeye and my husband ordered the lobster tails. My friends had the salmon and the short ribs. We all loved our meals. My friends said it was a great meal and the little extras for dessert they give you are a nice touch. We will be back.

    The food was very good. One of the top meals we’ve had since we arrived in Naples four months ago. We have visited many what were purported to be fine dining establishments here in Naples which turned out to be subpar in their execution of sauces, flavour combinations, and produced desserts which tasted purchased from a grocery store. In contrast, our meal at The Catch of the Pelican was spot on from appetizers to dessert. We took advantage of the Sizzle prefix dining menu and enjoyed our meal immensely. Everything tasted delicious and appeared to have been made in house. Our waiter, although busy, was engaging and attentive. We will definitely return.
