Great waterfront bar/restaurant with excellent service and good food. Taco Tuesday is excellent. They also have live music every night.
The food was great for the price. The fries were hot and crispy. The burgers were good. It's order at the bar and they bring the food to you. We came for lunch. There is live entertainment in the evenings. I've heard it can get a little rowdy some evenings, but we were here for lunch. If you're looking for a reasonably priced lunch option, this is a good choice. Waterfront, nice view, soft drinks are not out of the can.
Its definitely a locals vibe and i am here for it! They serve food till later around 11pm which most places dont. The spot is right on the water so you can get some nice views. They had a local band playing on sunday and it was great a lot of fun and the music was good. We got fish dip with pita bread both wete tasty but the pita bread was excellent! My bro had a shrimp po boy and he crushed it and said it was absolutely delicious. I also got some loaded tattertots for us to share and it was also yummy
Sheila was such a good bar tender! She did a great job waiting on us earlier..normally I dont like frozen drinks but with the heat I ordered a couple different ones to try..very good!! They didnt melt fast, which was a plus. My husband likes the seasoning used on the peel and eat shrimp. We plan to go back!! 😃
Great casual waterside vibes! We saw Kevin McCabe play and he was awesome. The blackened mahi sandwich and coconut shrimp were amazing. Great happy hour deals until 7!
Sat dockside for lunch after a visit to Sombrero Beach. Nice view, lunch was good. Had the Rekorderlig Strawberry Lime Cider, delicious.
We just discovered our new favorite dockside bar in restaurant in Marathon, Florida! Yes, the menu is simple...The drinks are good and the happy hour is a jovial place.
Meet the locals. <3 Simply a perfect place to enjoy a few drinks in a relaxed atmosphere. There is always live music and lots of locals spending their evenings there. The food is also very good and definitely recommended. A place we will 100% come back to.
Lovely little ocean side bar and restaurant. Great prices, slightly less service than some places. Good food though.
This is a very chill spot. We made it right we had multiple appetizers and different flavored Mojitos and they were all great. The views are great. All of the ordering is at the counter but they do bring the food to you. Some parking along the street, but if it gets busy I'm guessing it parking is tight. Prices are reasonable.
