Everything was amazing! We had the crab puffs, scallop risotto, churrasco and apricot crème brûlée…WOW! Katy was our waitress and she was on top of everything and so professional and pleasant. Tyler was the manager and he came to all the table to make sure we were pleased. Will definitely be going back often!

The only thing I enjoyed was the appetizer. My poke bowl was nothing like a poke bowl. All rice and not tasty rice, tuna and edamame. That’s all there was in it and no sauce. Horrible. Their key lime pie, not good.

Prime rib was among the best I’ve had anywhere. My wife had scallops and stated they were great as well. Smoked fish dip appetizer was very tasty as well. All and all, a very nice dinner and location was good as well.

The service was excellent, however the food was subpar. Especially at that price point. The mussels were absolutely horrible. Our waitress should have noticed that we only ate four to five of them and taking them off our bill. My prime rib was heated to medium on a flat top. Although it tasted okay, this isn't the traditional heating method for prime rib. The scallops were okay and the risotto was underdone. I chalked the whole experience up to it being "off season". Either way I wouldn't go back.

Service and server was excellent. The food was good. The prime rib was correct, mashed potatoes were done well. My wife had the scallops but there were 3 on a bed of risotto. A bit underwhelming. I took off 1 star since the food was good but not better than other local places comparatively. Prices were not totally unfair but portions felt unequal 12 oz prime rib and seared scallops (3). The same price did not make much sense. My wife ate a second dinner later.

Sadly this restaurant is not what it once was. The menu is tiny and I can find less and less to order. I have been going to the LHG for over 10 years and it seems less and less popular or crowded. I used to have to fight to get a reservation. As a restaurant manager I know how hard it is to have a large menu and good wine selection (no Moscato or Riesling), but if you build it (especially in the Keys) ..they will come! The servers are just as nice as always!

Our extended family of nine enjoyed a very pleasant early dinner at the Lighthouse Grill. The seafood chowder was exceptional. Everyone else was very satisfied with flank steak, chicken lollipops, key lime pie, and others. Katie, our server, was very attentive and helpful. The view over the water and lighthouse were an added bonus.

Service was very slow and it was not a busy time. Took forever to get drinks and even bread that we had to ask for. Mussels smelled bad so we had to return and my shrimp scampi was more like a soup with a lot of excess water.

The service was very slow. We had to wait to get water. Nobody clean the table. My husband got served first and then my entrée came out 20 minutes later. The scallops were overcooked and my fish , was extremely dry that I could not eat it

Everything was wonderful. The view, the food and drinks and topped off with great service. Nikki was our waitress and she was happy and helpful. Very polite and attentive as well. We had the Caesar Salad, the chicken entree, the scallops shrimp scampi and we’d order them all again. The virgin pina colada, Miami Vice and mojito which were great as well. At the end we were surprised with a birthday dessert complete with candle! Nikki also gave us great ideas for things to do around Marathon. We’ll be back.

Convenient to resort, food ok. Nice atmosphere, but for outdoor seating they needed more fans. It was hot, we ate dinner at 6:45pm so it wasn’t hottest part of day, we were sweating. Also I think extra fans would have helped keep the flys away, which we had to continually shew away.

Way overpriced and under delivered, no way in any world should the prices be as high as they are at this place.. I have no problem paying for a good meal but the food was bland and ridiculously small portions. $40 for a pork chop that was the size of a drumstick .. come on..
