EAT: Bistro 821, Naples, FL

Located in the heart of Downtown Naples, FL, Bistro 821 brings the flavor to the Gulf Coast. With a great outdoor patio located on the front side of the restaurant, it is the perfect spot to watch the world go by on a warm winter evening. Bistro 821 has a gluten free menu with a good selection, including one of my favs, risotto! With seafood, steaks, and risotto, a large portion of the menu is or can be made gluten free. 
We dined outside the evening we checked out Bistro 821. The large patio out front was packed. There was a street fair going on, so a lot of people were out on 5th Ave. Great people watching! Our server was knowledgeable about the gluten free menu and answered or checked on all of our questions. I decided on the Lemon and Garlic Shrimp with Spinach and Sun Dried Tomato Risotto. Very tasty with a reasonable number of shrimp. 

My dinner companion ordered the gluten free Blackberry and Blistered Mint Lamb Rack with Goat's Cheese Potatoes Au Gratin and Asparagus with Port-Wine Blackberry Demi-Glaze. He said it had a good flavor and was cooked perfectly.

Bistro 821 is a Downtown Naples hotspot and is a fun place to dine outside. With its expansive gluten free menu to suit almost any tastebuds, it is definitely a spot I will return to on my next trip to Naples.
