Waxin’s Restaurant & Bar, Naples

Social Profile:

The Waxins moved from Sweden to America over a decade ago and as they settled themselves in and the years passed, the family felt that there was something missing in their life. After careful thought and consideration they decided that it was time for America to enjoy the full Swedish experience when it comes to food and design. Their vision was to create a second home for themselves and all of our guests. They have strived and succeeded in making Waxin’s a go to spot for authentic Swedish and American food and craft cocktails in a beautiful atmosphere.

4.3 / 5 is better than its 4.1. Service was excellent. Cameron led a strong team of customer focused attentiveness. Was very first class.

Location is prime Naples and close to great bars and shopping. Stylish fun bistro.

The food was good, the seafood dishes in particular. Shrimp and brioche, flaky cod, and roe and dill spread. The meatballs were okay, and the mash was tasty. Overall, it was a good experience and I recommend for anyone looking for a Swedish fusion style experience.

We have been here twice for dinner, both times were excellent! The food is delicious, the service is great, and the atmosphere is very chill and relaxing. Highly recommend the Toast Skagen for an appetizer and the Swedish Meatballs for a classic entree! For dessert, we had the Princess Cake and it was fantastic as well. 10/10!

Overall, it was a decent experience, mostly due to the wine and food. The staff on the other hand seem to lack in training. I’m absolutely thrilled anytime I see a menu that states a dish can be made vegan and grateful for the inclusion. Unfortunately, our water seemed to be hearing this for the first time when we asked about it. And after going to ask the kitchen, the best he came back with was making a pasta with olive oil and paow (a soy based plant protein). I ended up getting the west Palm beach salad with paow after looking through the menu myself, which was lovely. Additionally, we waited quite some time for our waiter to initially greet us and he was quite rushed and inattentive. Would love to come back and try something else given the staff is better able to accommodate a vegan meal that isn’t noodles and olive oil as the atmosphere was lovely and my boyfriend loved his meals as well (spaghetti bolognese).

Waxin”s Restaurant and Bar, situated in the Mercato area of North Naples, is a restaurant specializing in Swedish cuisine.

The food is truly delightful. I particularly enjoy the Wallenbergare, while my wife opts for the chicken.

We concluded our meal with dessert, the Golden Chocolate Dome.

The restaurant provides ample seating options, both indoors and outdoors, and is quite spacious.

The men’s bathroom is rather amusing… take a look.

We’ll start with the positive, the food is delicious. From starters to dessert, everything was so good. Kudos to the kitchen team because they really made this experience.

Unfortunately the service end of things really hurt the evening. When we walked up to the restaurant, no one was up front and since it’s a bar area, it wasn’t clear if we needed to go in to get seated (apparently we didn’t). We walked past a bartender who just looked at us and didn’t say anything (wait here, etc) We even walked past the host/manager (not sure) who said hello, but then didn’t ask us if we needed help. We did eventually get seated.

We were there early, so the restaurant had very few people. That being said, it did get busier as the night when on and as best we could tell, there was only one server. He was just polite, but not sure I can fault him, because he had very little help. This lead to every step of the evening just taking a long time. A while to get drinks, then starters, etc.

The final bit was the entire front of the restaurant is open to the outside. This must be beautiful in the fall and winter, but not July. It was just hot and it made the evening uncomfortable.

We can deal with the heat, we live in SWFL after all. But the service is hard to get past. Which stinks because the food is so good. It’s hard to imagine what it will be like in season when it’s super busy.

Even though they have been open for months, maybe a little more time will help a few more details get sorted out.

An Unforgettable Dining Experience at Waxin’s in Naples

Waxin’s isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a full-on experience. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with an incredible atmosphere that sets the tone for what’s to come. The space is stylish, welcoming, and perfect for everything from a romantic night out to a memorable dinner with friends.

The food? Absolutely top tier. Every dish is crafted with care and packed with flavor. You can tell immediately that quality is the standard here. Chef Kenzie is truly the heart of the kitchen—her creativity, passion, and precision come through in every bite. She’s hands down one of the best in the business.

If you’re looking for more than just a meal—something that feels special, memorable, and delicious—Waxin’s is the place. Highly recommend!

First time having Swedish food in a place that doesn’t also sell flat packed furniture. Food was amazing. I ventured off the safe familiar path and was pleasantly surprised. Food was fresh, beautiful, and tasted great. Will definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

Extremely disappointing experience, especially for a New Year’s Eve dinner charging $175 per person (not including drinks).

Our server was rude and unfriendly from the start. When my boyfriend politely asked for his steak rare, she actually scoffed and said she prefers medium well. Unsurprisingly, his steak arrived exactly that way medium-well despite his clear request. For a restaurant charging these prices, that’s unacceptable.

To make matters worse, after our food was dropped off, we did not see our original server for over 45 minutes. No check ins, no follow up, nothing. Eventually, a new server took over he was kind and professional but we were never told what happened to the original server or why we were abandoned mid service. ( apparently wasn’t feeling well)

At the end of the night, the bill came to $476 for two people, and honestly, the food was average at best. Definitely not worth the price, and absolutely not worth the terrible service.

For what is supposed to be a high end dining experience, this place was a complete letdown. Poor service, overpriced food, and zero accountability. A disgrace, especially on a night like New Year’s Eve.

The Swedish meatballs were great, along with the gravy and potatoes. The Wallengare was excellent as well.
Our waiter was excellent.
We sat outside, which can be a bit noisy with live music and the mall activities area out front.
Will be back.
