The Local Restaurant

About the Business

Specialties

The Local, Naples' first farm and sea-to-table restaurant, celebrates the intersection of local farmers, ranchers, sea mongers, artisans, and brewers: fresh, local ingredients. With this profound commitment to local and organic ingredients, the team changes the menu daily based on the day's delivery. Created by Owner and award-winning Executive Chef Jeff Mitchell, The Local offers simple, delicious, and nourishing dishes prepared with healthy cooking techniques and locally sourced ingredients. With a casual ambiance, cozy wine bar, and daily rotating blackboard specials, we welcome you to enjoy our local eatery showcasing Florida's freshest bounty. Our Naples vegetarian restaurant is open for lunch and dinner. Call to make a reservation!

History

Established in 2013.

The abundant seafood and long-growing season in Florida inspire our menu and passion for tour food. Although there are many great restaurants here in Naples, none of them focus on locally sourced ingredients. Our menu will change with the seasons and we promise to provide an intimate, fun, clean, casual and comfortable environment.
