Deep Lagoon Seafood & Oyster House

Granted ... we did not have a reservation. Walked in at 4:30 to find a rather empty place. Still, the front desk sternly asked for a reservation. Then hesitantly agreed to sit us ... outside. Plenty of empty inside tables. Didn't bother asking if this was OK with us. Even outside, while many tables were empty ... we were seated at a table between the two gazebos ... with no overhead ceiling fan. Hot. Hot! The rest of experience was ok. Our server was great. The food was fine (albeit unreasonably expensive). Nice view of the lake. When we left an hour and 20 minutes later, the majority of the inside tables were still empty. So ... I am calling BS on this guy. It's all for the show, I suspect. Or maybe our looks. Yes, we moderately enjoyed the food and everything. But no, we will find a more accomodating eatery next time. It ain't Rodeo Drive (the real one, I mean)!

We have visited the Nikomis location and the Lakewood Ranch locations. Both are excellent!

The food was the same as its sister restaurant, Pinchers, but worse. The cedar plank salmon was undercooked and cold. Other items were overseasoned to mask the poor quality of the fish. Service was slow 🐌 🐌. I felt like I was bothering the bartender. The atmosphere is kitschy and cheesy, typical of a chain restaurant. So many other great options for seafood in the area. Don't waste your money here

I take no pleasure in leaving this review. We were regulars (every Friday) since it opened. The food is solid but the drinks, service, and atmosphere were always 5 stars. We went there 6-7 weeks ago and the drinks and service were so horrible that we have not been back. I contacted the restaurant and did not hear anything so I am taking to Google to let them know that regulars are the lifeblood of any business. I always give a place a mulligan but because you just ignored my message we will choose to be a regular at another restaurant.

Stopped in Again. Our 3rd attempt. It has been awhile but we thought why not. Ordered vodka/soda. We got a juice size glass. Smaller than any other drink at the bar. Guess we are still not impressed. Also No One is here, empty, they said it is bc of ranch night. Well guess what, all the other restaurants here are packed and always are on ranch night! Sorry Guys strike 3

Great place, and food!

Loved your bar. I had a full main lobster for lunch. The Brussels sprouts, and maduros for the sides. The main lobster was a two on a scale of five. Didn’t have any flavor. I don’t know what Maine lobsters do to make them taste like Maine lobsters. This one wasn’t flavorful. I don’t know if it was the restaurant fault or anything. Maybe it was Maine’s fault. Their brussels sprouts, which I normally hate were wonderful. Their maduros/plantains were wonderful.

Your margarita is great.

Food was okay, nothing I would rave about. Polite attentive servers. I’d go there for happy hour for the quick bites when we take our daughter to play at the park.

Food was OK but not great. The shrimp fried Diablo was very oily and more like a soup. The fresh fish with vegetables was acceptable. The service person we had was very good but stretched thin and we had to wait several times for that person to get back to our area of the restaurant. Yeah atmosphere was Great as it was on the water but the restaurant in general was very loud even with a few tables empty. I’d rate the restaurant 3 1/2 stars overall. We complained about the shrimp dish and they removed it from the Bill unexpectedly so before it’s removal and one of three people ordering a drink, we spent $30-$35 per person and after the adjustment it dropped to $25 per person.
