Most days of the week they have sushi. Their lunch specials include taco salad, tacos and enchiladas, sloppy Joe, and chicken sandwich. They are one of our go tos for lunch. We especially like their haddock fish sandwich on Fridays! They have this on their early bird 4-6pm menu, too.

We had an excited party of 10 and our server Micah pretty much kicked major butt as a solo act! Every order correct and asked if we needed anything before we thought of it! I voted him for employee of the month. His patience alone with our group was amazing! THANK YOU MICAH for making our experience awesome!!! We will be back!! Ron Hoffman

I ordered food to go. I liked the atmosphere while I waited and was thinking of going back on some night to have a drink and enjoy the music. However, the food didn't do it for me. I ate 1 taco and incorporated the other 2 into a dish that I made, which was far superior than what I received.

This is a classic SW FL cantina. The service is good and the food is better than it needs to be. Thank god we still have places that allow smoking in the outdoor seating areas! For all the haters that complain about the smoking, go back to your homes and hide under your bed while you wait on your 12th COVID booster. Don’t bring children to an adult bar.

Dirty table, sticky menu that had some sort of smell to it… we ordered the chips to start and they were clearly out of a bag. Food arrived fast and was clearly pre made. My son almost burnt his hand on the plate which had been sitting under the warmer for some time. Re-fried beans were dried out and rice could have been from a few days ago. Overall not a good meal.

We moved to PG just over a year ago, and Dean's was on the list of places we really wanted to check out. We'll, it took over 11 months to get here, but we sure are happy we did! I'm so happy that we are back for the second time in 8 days! We stopped for a late lunch as we were out running errands, so adult refreshments were not part of this visit. We did, however, get the Diablo Salsa and chips again as well as the Japepeno Bottle Caps. We like the Diablo so much we bought an extra ro take home. I had the Chilles Rellanos with Chorizo, and it was an encode since the first time we were there, I got it as well. I truly liked it so much that I wanted to be sure it was not a fluke. Truth is, it's legit and awesome!! My wife did the Barbacoa Burrito and was very happy. Last time, I had the refried pinto beans and yellow rice, which was great. This time, I tried the Black Beans and Cilantro lime rice, and it became my new favorite. The food is great, but the service is exceptional. We had Molly again on this visit, and she was an all-star again. This time, Rachel, a manager it seems, came to say hello to us and make sure all was well. Great leadership makes great teams. We'll done. So, we shall see you all again very soon. Thank you, Molly. You made our day...again!

Molly T greeted, seated, and treated us great! We sat inside because this is a place with a really good band and a lively bar atmosphere outside. The menu has so much to choose from, but we went the Tex-Mex route: starting with jalapeño bottlecaps, and Diablo Rojas & chips. Molly also brought some of their tasty house salsa. (Good move!) House margaritas were tangy and went down quick! Entrees were the Tijuana combo and Chili Rellenos 😋. The Spanish rice and refried beans accompanied with fresh quac, enchilada sauce, sour cream, all on a crisp bed of shredded lettuce. It was one of the BEST meals EVER! The staff work hard with smiles on their faces.... A great team serving excellent food in a welcoming, well-organized venue! Kudos, and thanks to ALL! Punta Gorda should be proud...what a great facet to this beautiful community that Dean's is!

Different atmosphere since after Ian. Food was take out and good.(burritos). Smaller but good. Supposed to come with green verde sauce. Deans has a long history of messed up to go orders so we checked. There was no verde sauce visible. Bartender asked if on the side was ok, said yes. Come back and said it was In the burrito?? She charged $2 for2 sides of sauce without telling us. I should have checked closer THERE WAS NO VERDE SAUCE inside the burrito. After a year, we decided to try Dean's again ( what used to be 3-4 Times per month before IAN. I think we're done.

The music is great. It was very crowded on the weekends with a nice mix of ages. Very lively atmosphere. 2nd visit came by boat parked by Lashleys and walked over . We sat right away inside. Service was good . Seems to wait a while for service, but the waitress stayed busy perhaps they are understaffed. The food was good. I ordered the country fried steak with the gravey and hashbrowns . Huevos Ranchero he liked it a lot. The prices are very good you get a lot of food for the price. The location is nice, right in the middle of downtown Punta Gorda.

UPDATED PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS REVIEW. The most rude, unattentive staff I have ever come across. Had to move twice to get service. Bar staff was slow as heck. We had a party of 4,ordered simple drinks. Ordered chips and salsa with guacamole on the side. Chips came out, then salsa, had to reask for the guac. We got an attitude and an" I don't remember you asking for it." Our party for 4 heard it. We were told it was a 30-minute ticket time we ordered right away at 6:40 at 7:35still was no food. We had to be at the airport at 8:15. Had to cancel our order. I believe he never put it in as our drink bill came seconds after we told him to cancel. There were about 7 staff working the inside area and it was a horrible experience. The food might be good, I couldn't tell you because we never got any. UPDATE 1 year later, we returned, and the whole atmosphere changed. The service was much better,MUCH BETTER! We have been there twice in 4 days, and it now seems... happier. The whole vibe. The 2nd time there was to see 2 Ohio Boys entertain the crowd. Tommy Varga and Mike Morris did just that. We only had about an hour to enjoy due to time constraints. Dean's has changed, and this change is GREAT!

Just had lunch with friends. I had the 6 ounce prime rib. So dry. Almost paper thin. I would have rather had a chunk of meat that was small. Hubby had the burrito lunch. There was no taco seasoning on the beef/hamburger meat which made a very bland burrito. The refried beans were dry and pasty. Generally pasty but not dry. The bill was $47.00, plus tip our lunch was over $50.00. We will never return to Deans. The food is less than mediocre.

If you enjoy tasteless and over priced food, this is the place to go. Additionally, the music played outdoors is extremely loud and the acoustics is horrible. Making live music lovers challenged to hear each note played. As a recommendation, the cooking staff should take basic lessons in preparing and cooking "Tex Mex" style food.

Went last night for dinner. The place wasn't packed but they only had one server and she was running her butt off. Food was mediocre at best. Biggest issue was the couple at the table next to us. The woman was smoking a joint and the smoke was literally blowing in our faces as we tried to eat. She seemed like a regular so I'm guessing that's why no one said anything to her. Menus were dirty and sticky. Wasn't a fan, won't be back.
