Your Guide to September Dining in Naples
September is one of the best months to explore Naples’ incredible dining scene, and this year there are three delicious ways to do it. From prix-fixe menus featuring local favorites to special offerings along Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South, these dining events make it easy to discover somewhere new while supporting the local community.

Sizzle Dining | September 1–30

A Naples dining tradition returns for its 10th anniversary this September. Sizzle Dining brings together more than 100 restaurants throughout Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades, offering special prix-fixe lunch and dinner menus ranging from $19 to $69 throughout the entire month. Explore hidden gems, revisit beloved restaurants, or finally try one of Naples’ award-winning dining destinations. There’s also a meaningful reason to indulge: $1 from every Sizzle meal goes to Blessings in a Backpack SWFL. Last year, participating restaurants served more than 87,000 Sizzle meals, making a significant impact in the local community.

Flavors of 5th | Through September 30

Flavors of 5th offers another great opportunity to experience some of Naples’ most popular restaurants. Now in its third year, the summer dining promotion encourages guests to discover new 5th Avenue favorites and revisit longtime staples while supporting local restaurants. Every Flavors of 5th menu sold contributes to community initiatives through Beverly’s Angels, supporting programs that benefit local workers and their families. Last year, the event raised more than $21,000 for the community.

June 15 at 5 pm; will be a day I will never forget. Preparing to celebrate my birthday with my daughter’s birthday, Ella birthday, with my Goddaughter, family and amazing friends.

Milane Huguet, my Goddaughter and her families’ life changed. The fiery, firecracker & boot camp queen suffered a stroke. We rushed to Physicians Regional. Tears shed and Days and nights of worry, hope and prayers.

Thank you to everyone for their continued prayers and reaching out to get updates.

I believe in the power of prayer. 🙏

Her amazing husband, daughters, son and family never left her side. It’s been a painful, challenging and stressful few months. Yet, through it all they have shown patience, care, love & devotion. I have always loved and admired the family they’ve created. Sidney is an exemplary husband, his life revolves around his wife, children, and still managing to run an incredible business. Ava, Ella and Caleb. I cannot begin to express the love and pride I feel watching you care for you mom.

She is home and Getting stronger everyday!

The journey ahead will be strenuous, hard road for Milane Huguet and family. I am confident she will continue to amaze therapist and doctors with her stamina, will and determination to come back 100%! Milane Huguet, you have always been a fighter, a survivor & strong willed. Your words will come back, continue singing to your arm and working those legs. If anyone can do it, you can. I admire you. I see the softness in your eyes, gratitude, faith and love in your heart.

Love you Milane. 💖💝🙏
