28 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Marathon

“We loved our visit to Irie Island Eats! Great food, customer service and atmosphere!“

“Bongos Beer Garden is a true hidden gem in the Keys, and I’m so glad we stumbled upon it! From the moment we walked in, the laid-back atmosphere and great music made it the perfect place to unwind. It has that ideal Florida Keys vibe — casual, welcoming, and full of character. The food here blew me away. The quinoa salad was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had — super fresh with bold flavors, and the candied walnuts gave it that perfect sweet crunch. I also loved the tuna bowl; it was packed with fresh ingredients, and the edamame added a great texture and flavor balance.

What really set this place apart was the fun family-friendly setup — they had a floating water pad for kids to play on, which was such a cool touch. We even got to watch people wakeboarding nearby, adding to the laid-back, adventurous energy of the whole place. Whether you’re looking for a spot to chill with friends, entertain the family, or just enjoy some really great food in a cool setting, Bongos delivers. It quickly became my favorite spot in the Keys, and we can’t wait to come back again soon!“

“Great coffee, friendly and personable service, and Mr. Beans. I highly recommend!“

“AMAZING!!!! Had dinner as a last minute decision, and we were completely impressed with Barracuda Grill. We all had the special, lobster scallop and shrimp linguini. Salads were great, entrees were top notch, and the staff were really friendly. Highly recommended.“

“If you’re looking for great barbecue, this is the place for you! Have tried everything on their menu and their food is awesome!“

“A group of 6 of us had a fabulous dinner here last night. Had reservations and were seated immediately when we got there. Linda our server was witty and clever, but never too familiar. She did an excellent job, of talking us through the specials. 5 out of the 6 of us ordered specials. Everything was delicious. A few of us ordered desserts. Not sure why, we were so stuffed by the portions. There were plenty of to go boxes. 😂“

“It's always lovely to have dinner at Plaza Grill. We were warmly greeted by the lovely hostess,the table I prefer is right by the entrance door,it's very quiet and one can actually have a conversation, soft music was playing in the background and the waitress Neves(sp) was attending to our needs without having to find her when we needed something. I had the Wedge as an appetizer and the crab cakes,it was so much food that I took home the left overs for the next day. Of course there was always room for espresso ice cream. It is the best restaurant in the keys, definitely in Marathon,I can't wait to go back, love everything about it. Thank you“

“someone referred me to your key lime pie so I stopped in yesterday on the 25th coming back from Key West and got a slice of your pie to go it was so amazing I came in today to see Kimberly at the Bar and purchased a whole pie y'all that is by far the best key lime pie I have ever had and we tried three different places while we were here the homemade whipped cream is so light, yumm!! can't wait to come back to get more and actually have lunch with y'all everybody go see Kimberly at the bar she is fun people. do not pass on getting the keylime pie even if you have to get it to go you will not be disappointed!!“

“Wow! This restaurant, the food and the customer service were amazing! My family had been vacationing down in Marathon for about a week and we had yet to find a good restaurant. We tried out all of the other recommended places that were supposedly very delicious and we were not very impressed. They all tasted like cheap bar food. We found this restaurant just from a Google search and it had good reviews so we figured we would give it a try. It’s very hard to find a restaurant that all five people in my family can say that they loved without a shadow of a doubt, but this place is it. We tried a whole bunch of different menu items and every single thing was amazing! From the Cubans, the oxtail, the cheeseburger, the coquette and milkshakes. It was so good that we are actually considering going back tonight for dinner when we were just there today for lunch. We spoke with one of the family members that owns the restaurant and he was so great! Explained the different menu items to us when we weren’t sure what they were. I can’t say enough good things about this restaurant. Skip the big fancy chain restaurants and eat here next time you won’t regret it!“

“I really wish I had the black bean salad recipe! It was great and will be missed“

“The best coffee and the greatest service. My coffee is ready and handed to me before I even get to the window. They even give my little Daisy Duke dog treats everyday. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We are Canadians and been to the Panda House a number of times. Fresh food and friendly staff. Missed it last year as you were closed for renos.....Hope to get back and see the new Panda House.................“

“The best blackened shrimp/chicken and bang bang shrimp tacos we have ever had.. all the food was outstanding and the waitress was phenomenal! We will be back!“

“We went for the lion fish and it did not disappoint! I had sushi also. Everything was very good, including the service. So glad we found this place“

“I would 100% recommend you go and git a cold beer, a burger and the famous french-fries.“

“Love this place! We’ve been coming here many times throughout the years and enjoy the atmosphere and delicious food! Our ONLY issue here has been one specific, rude waitress. Today was the 2nd time we’ve had her as our waitress. First time (last year) she attended our families, we noticed she was rude, but gave her the benefit of the doubt, figuring she was having a bad day. But today, she was being extremely rude, unprofessional and seemed annoyed. She treated our kids poorly and treated the adults like kids. I’d still recommend this place, but please be aware not to have TANIA as your waitress!“

“The Cracked Conch has, without a doubt, the very BEST Conch Chowder in the Keys... I bought extra to-go to have later when I'm far from the keys!“

“There are LOT of good food choices down in The Keys, but this was easily our best meal. The Cuban elements were ridiculously good. Wonderfully seasoned and every bite felt like home cooking. Their Key Lime Pie was basically a religious experience. Pretty sure the pastry chef's hands were anointed by The Lord. Thanks again, Stephen!“

“We love Driftwood Pizza! We have had it delivered a few times now. Rachele has been the person delivering she is fast and goes above and beyond to make sure the customer is happy. Also she is always earlier than estimated. She truly cares about her job and it shows in her service!“

“This is the best place to be, the best place to spend your SUNDAY and make it a FUNDAY, absolutely the best with an Epic and captivating Sunset 🥰😊“
