This was our first time here, even though we have been coming to Marco for many years. The interior of the building needs a lot of work. It smelled moldy when we walked into the front entrance. I had a fried oyster po’boy, which was good, but needs to be served with sauce. The French fries were old and mushy. The drinks were good.

Amazing live music, great food and incredible customer service! The waiter we had was an incredible hustler & did a spectacular job!

This is a fun happy experience on the WATER?️ The waitstaff is fun & attentive. The owner is present and communicates with the patrons. The live music is entertaining. The bar-food is exactly that… Bar-Food. I look to the boat docks & enjoy the boat traffic. Life is too short to cut this restaurant down.

I have been here multiple times for lunch and dinner, but have not returned, nor will I. The owners have made a point of injecting their political position by displaying Trump flags and banners very conspicuously on the docks, as they have every right to do. I have the right to not do business with them. They have obviously made the decision that displaying their support will bring more customers than they lose, which says something about Marco Island and Goodland in particular. I’m not sure why they can’t keep politics out of dining.

We decided to venture out of Marco Island for lunch. Found this place and gave it a try. Nothing fancy but a nice spot on the water. We sat out on the deck and enjoyed the view. Menu had enough variety and the food was good. Service was very good.

We asked to see a drink menu and were told there wasn’t one and that we’d have to go up to the bar. Our table didn’t have any salt, pepper, or condiments. To top it off, my soup (given a very small portion) had a hair in it and the soup bowl itself had several chips. As another reviewer stated, political views of the owner and dock residents are very apparent so keep that in mind if it’s not your cup of tea. As we were leaving, there was an overwhelming sewage smell.

We stumbled upon this on our vacation while on Marco Island. The food was good and we enjoyed the live music. It was a great Saturday afternoon.

Great place for lunch on the water. Fast polite service, great food and reasonable. Our server was there for us before we asked for anything. Don’t think twice do it. Check out some pics.

Food was just ok, very mediocre. Service was not very attentive and the view is ruined by the owner's political views. This is the last thing you want to see when you are going out for something to eat. Someone's political views being rammed down your throat. Shouldn't surprise that the restrooms are DISGUSTING. Never again, should avoid if your looking to enjoy yourself.

Good food and service, but the place is full of Trump flags. Even the band was spewing :Let;s Go Brandon: BS. I don't care about someone's politics, but it is very bad form to force it on your customers. I will not be back. Oh, and the restrooms were flithy.

We are long-time visitors to Marco Island. This is a lovely spot to enjoy the waterways around Goodland. The outdoor bar area was nice and offered a place out of the hot sunshine. We ordered the grouper basket and Cuban sandwich, both of which were average, at best. We are not fans of the Trump flags flying around the restaurant. Our server was friendly and mostly attentive. But, overall, very average. We probably will not return!

Great water view and live music. Island sampler platter was good with large crab cake. I was a bit turned off to see a Women for Trump flag and a Trump 2024 flag flying in front of us. It took away from the water view.
