River City Grill

River City Grill is a dinner restaurant in downtown Punta Gorda serving what it calls Global Comfort Cuisine, with a menu built on fresh, organic produce. The kitchen sources vegetables from Worden Farm, a local organic farm, and the chef visits the farm during the growing season to pick up the week's produce. The restaurant also offers a wide wine list and a happy hour from 4:30 to 6 PM.

The room has a relaxed, eclectic feel that the restaurant describes as urban elegance with a neighborhood cafe feel. Reservations can be made by phone, and carry-out orders are taken at the same number. Parking is free in the garage on Herald Court, directly behind the restaurant, and the dress code is smart casual. The restaurant is closed on Mondays and Sundays.
