Just get a rack of ribs. Everything's good but the ribs are superb!
For this one you will need to drive across the bridge to Port Charlotte, but if you have a car it's worth the short drive.

Lots of shops, bars, and restaurants. Great for an afternoon stroll followed by dinner.
Daily boat cruises on Charlotte Harbor.
Historically was commercial ship in the wharf and the Terminus of the train. A Linear Park replaces the old train tracks, great for a stroll or bike ride.
