As power returns to more neighborhoods, more employees are returning to work, and more restaurants are doing the same.

The problem now: food.

“The big suppliers weren’t delivering until today,” Jay Johnson of Bubba’s Roadhouse in Cape Coral said Wednesday.

"Some of the places with power could get by with the food they had, but now we're all waiting for deliveries."

Many restaurant wholesalers, like Sysco and Gordon Food Service, weren’t able to resume delivery service until Wednesday, meaning restaurants that ran out of food had to sit and wait until more came.

“We’re out of everything,” a server at PrimaFila Pizza in downtown Fort Myers said late Wednesday morning. “We’re hoping to get more food soon.”

The good news is more restaurants are coming online in places such as Lehigh Acres, northwest Cape Coral and the islands of Matlacha, where a handful of eateries reopened Wednesday.

The even-better news is curfew has been lifted for most parts of Lee County, meaning you can now dine out past 8 p.m. in Fort Myers without fear of a citation. Or sip a late-night cocktail (and then hail an Uber) past 11 p.m. in Cape Coral.

“Downtown is open for business,” Fort Myers restaurateur Nils Richter said via text after getting news of the lifted curfew.

“We are reminding every guest leaving late to be extra careful, and we are happy to do that.”

Here’s a look at some of the restaurants open and ready to serve.

Please note that several restaurants are cash only due to power and internet constraints. Hours and menu availability are subject to change.
