Oysters were excellent.
Very noisy, no employees were wearing masks. Had baked potatoes, but both were cooked too long, and burned. Should have complained then, but we’re hungry. Other than that that the food was good along with the service. Very noisy, almost have to shout across the table.
Great food and atmosphere! Check out their daily specials.
Valet parking is a plus!
Black grouper special was excellent. Our waiter James was so polite, attentive and a great personality. He truly added to the evening. He is an outstanding young man.
Highly recommended, two thumbs up. Great seafood.
Outstanding service, food and atmosphere!
Our waiter Chris was was not only knowledgeable about the various seafood on the menu, but as busy as they were on a Saturday night at 5:00; never made us feel rushed. From the chilled water to final tab there was no waiting like so many other restaurants.
Looking forward to going back!
Great place. Unfortunately our waiter was half baked. Forget a lot of stuff including his name. But we were just happy to have someone show up for work but definitely not our best attention as in the past
Sat at the bar. Quick, terrific service throughout our visit. Delicious seafood, wonderfully prepared.
Sat close to the outside area with partial sunset views over marina. Great food, such fresh fish & oysters! Waitress was great and we would dine again
Jodi our server was awesome. We’ll be back!
The grab stuffed hog fish is fantastic. I got It the first time and have ordered it every time since.
The lime Panko grouper was on special and was absolutely delicious. Service was great. Atmosphere was fun. We will definitely be back!!
When I made the reservation I booked an outdoor table, but when we arrived I was told that outdoors is first-come, first-served, so I would correct this in your reservation system. Fortunately there was an outdoor table available so we were happy. The outdoor space, on the water, was great.
I felt that the price of my meal was high relative to the portion size, which was fairly meager. It was very tasty, though.
We understand the pressure wait staff are under due to the number of unfilled positions in restaurants, however I do resent it when made to feel like a nuisance rather than a guest. I will chalk it up the waitress having a bad day.
We each ordered coffee after our meal and it was cold.
We were there for a reunion of three friends who hadn’t seen each other in 5 years so no real or perceived shortcomings stood in the way of our good time, I’m happy to say.
After taking advantage of valet parking we entered Deep Lagoon and were greeted promptly. We had an amazing waiter who explained the menu in detail answering all of our questions. The appetizers and main course were both served hot with a nice presentation. The food was outstanding and everyone in our party agreed that it was a special restaurant worthy of a recommendation.
Deep Lagoon has mostly always been a great experience for us and our friends.
The bar service is outstanding. Menu is great. Food is always good and hot.
We've for the most part have always had great waiters and waitresses.
Good food with good friends!
Very good and outstanding service from AmberLee
Drove 40" from Bonita Springs to try a new place to eat. We were delighted to be seated right away and a server attended our table right away. She was very helpful explaining menu and assisting us with choices. Our drinks came quickly. The waterside was lovely and everything was so clean! We had great time with friends.
Service was exemplary ! Food was outstanding and delivered promptly. Our server, James was most pleasant and we'll be sure to ask for him when we go back. We had the fresh grouper and the hogfish. Both were outstanding. Place was very busy and we dined early to be sure to make the theater curtain at 6:30. No problem ! Can't wait to return. Our complements to management and staff for running a superior operation during difficult times !
Food and service were great. Free valet parking. A little noisy and not quite the water view I was hoping for.
We absolutely love this restaurant Food is always fresh and delicious! Waiter was very attentive and polite
Austin was excellent
Understaffed like everyone else. Made reservation for patio 5 days in advance e and for bad seat. Assume reservations mean nothing .
Deep Lagoon is one of our great, standard "go to" locations, this time a lunch before going to the theater. "Brooke" has been our server several times and she is great! The food, particularly if you like stone crab claws, can be pricey and the noise level is high. However, the Brooke's service is crisp and timely, the food is flavorful and the fish always seems to be fresh and tasty, the fresh oysters and shrimp terrific, and the parking and location great for us.
Our server Brooke was amazing! Great food!
Server was courteous and attentive. Very busy so service was understandably slow. Overall a pleasant experience.
Overpriced. Noisy. Mediocre food, amateurishly prepared. Elderly asparagus. Overcooked fish.
Great spot! It's expensive, but rock solid. The server was very nice.
It's our favorite place in Fort Myers! Great drinks, did and service!
Great setting. Very accommodating. Food was excellent.
Food was overpriced for the overall quality/portions.
What a great place. A few people on the beach told us about it and we decided to try it out. The ambiance was great and the food was outstanding! We sat at the bar and our bartender/server was amazing. He recommended the chef's special which was lime panko grouper. Amazing! My husband had the oysters which they are known for. Overall, a great experience. Great food!
Food at Deep Lagoon is top notch - some of the better seafood you can get in the area. They are obviously short-staffed - wait staff is friendly but has way too many tables and it took a long time to get food and drinks.
Great service. Food excellent. Great views looking out at water.
Hostess was rude, food was good and our waitress was awesome! Hostess needs some work on courtesy
Great service and great food!
Food was great and outdoor seating was amazing. Definitely recommend
Our waiter was inattentive at best. Ordered grouper special and it had no crab meat as listed. Margarita special was overwhelmingly strong and salty. Nice ambience for New Year’s Eve but that’s all it had to offer.
New Year's Eve dinner was awesome
Stuffed hog fish was great!! Love this place! Food is consistently good and so is the service!!
