    Lovely Mother’s Day brunch at Lighthouse Grill. They had everything you could ever want, from tuna and salmon tartare, frittata, waffle and omelet stations, thick maple bacon, cheesy grits, lox bagels and even salads and prime rib and desserts! There was something for everyone and it was absolutely fantastic! We will be coming back to try their regular dinner menu for sure. The outdoor seating is very nice with a lovely view of the pool, Marina and ocean. The noise level was minimal and the staff were extremely courteous. I cannot say enough good things!

    Food offerings did not merit the bill. Too expensive for what was offered. Omelette station did not cook eggs thoroughly and too many patrons for the one person cooking.

    10 out of 10 would totally recommend if you're in Marathon. Starters and mains exceeded expectations! The grouper sandwich, seared scallops, and seafood chowder are excellent mains, as well as the crap puffs and smoked fish dip apps + cocktails.

    Food (Scallops) good but a little salty but you may like it that way. Chicken was good but rice was thick… shrimp scampi had small shrimps and was good. Server was very nice ad food came quickly and hot. Just expected more but wasn’t great as it was a little more expensive than the value we got. Ambiance was nice but high table and chairs were mismatched leaving you reaching high for your meal. One last thing is the bread looked awesome as it passed by but you need to ask for it but maybe don’t because it looked great but was very blah…save space for something else…

    Hostess didn't smile, no greeting at table when we arrived, $75 buffet and no complimentary mimosas, pastries mah, Easter bunny talked, photographer didn't know how to take pics getting background, prime rib undercooked, wished our experience was better for $75pp. I'm not a hard sell either. Would have just appreciated a better experience on Easter Sunday.

    We visited today for Easter Sunday brunch. Chef Rob, the executive chef could not have made a more delicious variety of different foods. Each different item we tried was outstanding; fresh, flavorful , beautifully presented & there were so many different items to choose from. Our waiter, John was the best waiter we’ve had so far in the keys! John was friendly, attentive to our needs and was just an overall great server. We are looking forward to dining here again this coming week for dinner! Thank you Chef Rob and John for a fabulous Sunday brunch!

    Not the best food. Everything to me was sour, the starter bread rolls were not good. Paid about $100 for two meals that we didn’t eat. For the prices I recommend high quality tasting food and the taste was just not there unfortunately. The atmosphere is nice, loved sitting where we can see the light house and listen to the live performance. Besides that, I don’t think I would eat here again

    Some of the food options were not available (shrimp po boy), same thing happened with the drinks (no mojito -because no mint). We also had to wait a long time to get appetizers. The dinner was ok, my son liked his steak, my shrimp and linguini was ok.

    Salad was a plate of uncut lettuce that had to be diced in order to eat. Spicy chicken sandwich was good. Crab poboy was meh. Nice bread basket to begin our meal. Lovely atmosphere so not a complete fail. My salad dressing was wrong and nephew asked for no coleslaw atop the sandwich but it came with it anyway. Not big issues but not impressive either

    Overall, we enjoyed our dinner. The crab puffs were terrific, as were the dinner rolls. Our main courses were mixed, while my scallops were great, the salmon dish was not. The marina is beautiful backdrop, and our waiter was very nice and did a great job.

We apologize you did not enjoy your salmon entree but are glad to hear that we won you over with the crab puffs, dinner rolls and scallops. both of which were amazing choices on your part!

    We ordered fried grouper and it was terrible. Since it wasn’t fresh, it had an oily, beige-colored texture and tasted like garbage. We spent a ton of money for two meals we didn’t eat. $25 for a disgusting grouper sandwich. Shame on them!
