Reviews of Lighthouse Grill

We were a party of eight and were able to get a nice table on a patio on a Sunday night. The vibe of the restaurant was really nice as there was a musician playing his guitar right outside the patio. The waiter was extremely kind and stayed on top of everything. We loved the food! The fish and the burgers were great! We also loved their smoked fish dip; fresh rolls were also a hit! Overall, it's a nice restaurant in Florida Keys! The lighthouse decorated with Christmas lights was beautiful!

We have been coming to this area for years and somehow we have missed it. The view is fantastic. Right on the marina with an unimpeded view of the ocean. The atmosphere of the restaurant itself is very clean and has a classy feel to it. The food was excellent. Definitely if you are in the area check this place out.

Stopped by for lunch. Staff was friendly and accommodating. The lunch was a tad limited. I had the shrimp ceviche which was okay. The tajin throw it off for me. The spicy honey sandwich was delicious! Definitely recommend. The Ann signature drink was good, not too sweet. Our server was fantastic! Great location to stop by for good meal.

Start to finish service, food and drinks were awesome. Our server was super attentive. We’re not new to the Lighthouse Grill as we frequent here year after year sometimes multiple times a year. We’re actively Interested in purchasing a home here locally as Florida Natives and having vacationed in Marathon and Key Colony for over 25 years….it’s home away from home. Lighthouse Grill in peak season has great live entertainment, the food is always spot on. We’ve used the marina to dock our boat on a few trips down for a couple of days and the marina staff is just as accommodating. Ok enough fluff above. The prime rib, potatoes and pork chop and rice was abundant in flavor. The Old Fashion was great and the spicy Margarita was Smokey and spicy. Overall the food and server were phenomenal. We love Lighthouse Grill & Faro Blanco for food, drinks and marina services. We highly recommend Lighthouse Grill.

We were staying next door at the Marriot and walked over based on the recommendation of the hotel staff. Glad we did, because this turned out to be one of the best meals of our vacation. The food was well prepared and delicious. Our server was attentive and pleasant. Thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Make sure you try several apps, they have several great appetizers on the menu!

What an amazing experience! Walking in, we were greeted by Jennifer (“Jen”), who would be our server. What a patient and more than listening woman. She was very well versed in everything we needed to know, and made recommendations that were stellar. That brings me to the food and ultimately to the chef. Chef Robert has an amazing culinary way with what he gives to his patrons. We have Cuban Rice Balls (Jen’s recommendation) and roasted oysters for appetizers…delicious! Even got an order of Cuban Rice balls to go at the end of the meal. Our entries were beyond what we could have expected. My husband ordered Seared scallops & risotto…”delicious.” I have the Lobster Mac n’ Cheese, the first bite to the last brought nothing but sublime pleasure. My husband & I were there for our 42nd Anniversary, to our SURPRIZE, they brought us a beautiful plate with “Happy Anniversary” written on it and most (& I mean most) delicious slice of Key Lime Pie…beyond scrumptious. Would highly recommend this dining experience, Chef Robert will not disappoint. His passion for food and the delight of the patrons exceeds any place we have eaten. They even took the time for a selfie to remember the experience! Bon Appetite!

The atmosphere would have been better if the sun was not setting during our 🍽️ meal. Also odd there is a pool adjacent to the restaurant but, oh well. The restaurant service was good. The fish was delish. The cost of five scallops (not pictured) were the same as a full fish 🐟, so I felt bad for my friend who had to watch me eat for thirty minutes after he had finished his dish. The shrimp tacos were solid. All was really good and the lighthouse was fun. Sunset partially blocked but still very nice.

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.

During our return journey from K West, we were on the lookout for something extraordinary, a place that combined a modern kitchen with a beautiful atmosphere, and this restaurant turned out to be the perfect match. Lighthouse Grill offers an exceptional menu that caters to connoisseurs of haute cuisine. From the first bite to the last, the food impressed us with its exquisite taste and impeccable presentation. Each dish was a work of art, crafted with precision and showcasing the chef's culinary expertise. The flavors harmonized beautifully, leaving our taste buds in awe. One of the standout moments during our dining experience at Lighthouse Grill was undoubtedly the exquisite Scallop Risotto. It was the best order of the evening, showcasing the culinary prowess of the kitchen. The perfectly seared scallops atop a bed of creamy, flavorful risotto created a harmonious combination that left us craving for more. The dish was a true testament to the chef's skill in balancing flavors and textures, and it surpassed our expectations in every way. We opted to dine outside, and the fresh ocean air from the nearby golf course added an element of tranquility to our meal. The view of the lighthouse added to the overall ambiance, providing a picturesque backdrop that enhanced our dining experience. It was a delightful combination of culinary delights and natural beauty. If you're searching for a dining experience that goes beyond the ordinary, Lighthouse Grill is the place to be. With its remarkable menu, impeccable flavors, and breathtaking views, it truly stands out as a culinary destination worth savoring. We highly recommend indulging in the delights of this establishment and immersing yourself in its wonderful ambiance.

Excellent place and very convenient walk as it is on property of Faro Blanco resort. Reservations recommended. The lighthouse and yacht dock view is awesome. The smoked fish dip was the best of the two appetizers and tasted really fresh (chicken lollipop was the other). The shrimp pasta was delicious and light. The winner is the chocolate martini dessert (pic attached) and highly recommended. Comes with raspberry reduction. Our server Camilo was very good 👍🏻

The drinks were good and the food was pleasant as well. However I mentioned to the waiter that my wife did not really do spicy food and instead of suggesting something else he assured us it was not too spicy. It was in fact very spicy. My suggestion is if something is at all spicy and someone says they are not in to spicy foods. Say that it may not be the best choice. My wife had a back up dish just in case but and likely would have been much happier. Other than that. It was a very nice evening and a n overall pleasant environment.
