Restaurants in Marathon

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

“Best burrito I have ever put in my face! So good! The favors… I didn’t want to stop eating it. Will be stopping again. Next time you’re running through Marathon do yourself a favor and stop in! Get a chicken burrito or a Blackened fish with the pineapple salsa or a champana burrito or anything else on the menu! You can’t go wrong everything is good! Just stop in and try it. You won’t be disappointed.”

“Outstanding- the food here is outstanding and the atmosphere is so refreshing and relaxing. Drinks were strong and made to order, food was authentic, portioned perfectly, and insanely delicious! We plan to go again tomorrow 👍🏼”

“I did takeout. Great customer service, Amazing food. I had adobo ribs with refried beans,rice and salad,sooo good. Beef soup was amazing and the chicken tostada was delish. Gotta try the Horchata a milky rice drink with cinnamon. I'll be back.”

“Barmaiden Elizabeth was fun knowledgable and amazing. Welcoming, professional and exceptional at explaining both craft beer selections and the menu. Herbies lucky to have her.”

“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.”

“Best key lime pie by far! Smooth texture, authentic taste and very generous portion. Tuna ahi nachos are delicious and must try, it’s a meal in itself!”

“What happened to the ocoee location we loved it and then now it's under new onwership in like 2 weeks ??”

“DELICIOUS! FRESH! The OTH sauce for dipping the yellowtail fingers amazing. Their homemade potato chip crumbs in the breading made the yellowtail fingers extra crispy...yum! I'll be back soon for the wonderful breakfast sandwiches! Thanks for the wonderful lunch!”

“We absolutely loved this place! The Ropa is the best we’ve ever had. I also recommend the tostones (the sauce is unique and delicious) and the Cuban sandwich. Definitely would love to eat here again!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Plaza Grill, and it was nothing short of phenomenal! We stumbled upon this hidden gem while attending a show at the theater next door, and I’m so glad we did.
🍽️
The baked brie was an absolute standout, and the calamari paired with their incredible red sauce immediately set the tone for a fantastic meal. Once we tasted that sauce, we knew we were in for a treat!
🍽️
The service was impeccable, making our experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was inviting, and I loved the charm of the place from the outside.
🍽️
Being Italian and from New York, I have high standards for Chicken Parmesan, and The Plaza Grill did not disappoint. The chicken was perfectly crispy, with just the right amount of sauce, and they generously served pasta on the side, which was equally amazing and enough for two to share.
🍽️
We will definitely be back! If you're looking for a delightful dining experience, I highly recommend The Plaza Grill.
The only downside is that we were so enjoying the company, ambience and food. I forgot to take pictures.📸”

“Great food Awesome service!! thank you!!”

“Been coming here for the last 3 years and we love this place the food is awesome and our server Kris is the best we ask for him every time we come”

“Rosemary and crew are the best! We have stopped by 4 times in 4 days food and staff are amazing! Too bad we live in Michigan and will have to go home soon.”

“Great view of the races,cold beer @ beautiful bartenders”

“Absolutely amazing! I’m usually the odd one out at these places because desserts aren’t my thing but wow. Friendly service and did I mention everything is wonderful?! This is definitely a spot you’ll want to visit in Marathon!”

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

“Tried them at Pigeon Key, and the family was HOOKED! Made a special stop in Marathon to grab a variety!”

“We spent the night in Marathon, and the next morning, I was in need of a good coffee to kick-start the day. A quick search led me to The Marketplace, which had coffee on their menu and seemed like a great option for a morning pick-me-up.

The Marketplace was just a 5-minute drive from where we were staying, and finding parking nearby was easy and hassle-free. As I stepped inside, I was immediately impressed by the inviting ambiance. The space was not just a coffee spot but a versatile marketplace offering a variety of items for purchase, including food, coffee, beer, and even home decor.

From the menu, I decided to go with a classic Latte served hot. The service was efficient, and my coffee was ready within 5-10 minutes. With coffee in hand, I was quickly back on my way to continue the day.

The latte was everything I needed in the morning--freshly brewed with a smooth, rich flavor. It had just the right balance of creaminess and a hint of sweetness, as it wasn't overly sugary, which suited my preference perfectly.

Overall, The Marketplace was a convenient and delightful find. The great coffee, welcoming atmosphere, and variety of offerings make it worth a stop for anyone staying in or passing through Marathon. It was the perfect start to my morning.”

“Hidden Gem. Great food, good service, awesome atmosphere. The grouper cheeks are insanely good.”

“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. 😂”

“Great vibes- great food!!!”

“Oh my goodness! Everything is so good! Excellent service. We tried the blackened Hogfish, smoked fish dip, grouper, tuna, stone crab legs, Mac and Cheese hamburger, stone crab chowder, crunchy peanut butter pie and Iguana Bait on draft. Yum! Highly recommend!”

“Great staff great food a must visit”

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

“BBQ pizza and lasagna and salad”

“Just had the most amazing croquettes and Cuban sandwich. Highly recommend This restaurant. Service was excellent! Staff friendly and helpful❤️”

“This place was phenomenal if I could give it a 20/10 I would. My bartender Sabby was exceptional and she’s so pretty and charming my Husband and I couldn’t stop laughing! Her hospitality is amazing. Everyone at the bar was treated so nice and kindly by her. I wanted something sweet so She recommended chocolate espresso martini , and it was mouth watering with a hint of orange. Ugh! Yummy! It’s my new favorite drink. My husband had the old cuban and it was absolutely tasty. We had the guava pineapple burnt ends and two coffee rub New York strips with goat cheese mashed potato’s ! I love their approach to AG and sourcing and seeking everything locally it genuinely makes my heart so happy for all small business and local farmers.”

“Happy 25th anniversary! 👏🏻👏🏻”

“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!”

“JJ's Doghouse was a nice locals bar with a pool table. Drinks were good, bartenders were friendly, and so were the patrons. I felt this was like my local hangout bar from where I live. It's was welcoming with a jukebox playing music, people enjoying conversations, and bartenders who knew what they were doing. I did not eat, but I believe there was pizza and calzones you could buy. Overall it was like being at my local hangout bar. Everyone was welcoming and friendly.”

“We had a delicious dinner- lovely restaurant and great service -every course was freshly made and wonderful! Pricey but worth every penny . Fresh muddled mango mojito- the best 👍👍”

“Great staff great food a must visit”

“It felt like sitting on an exclusive deck of a spectacular cruise ship. There are both comfy seating areas, very classy wood and cushioned chairs and couches, with umbrellas... as well as table and chairs for more practical dining.We went there for breakfast as part of our stay at Grassy Flats resort. The food is excellent, just like Rhum House, same cooks, same chefs. It can get very overwhelmed with people in the morning, which is why I didn't give it a 5 for service. It isn't like they didn't try, but while we were there, they got a rush for breakfast and it took a while. The days we were able to order breakfast from the Rhum House, due to higher winds the service was excellent! The pictures come from our breakfast at Rhum House, but the menu is the same.The two most spectacular dishes for breakfast were a fruit tray that was so gorgeous to behold, and the yogurt bowl that was sprinkled with chocolate and honey. Avocado toast was excellent, so I heard (I'm gluten sensitive so I didn't get to try it). Coffee was good, and endless. Mai Tais were also available that day, as our favorite bartender was on duty and it wasn't too busy. It was well worth the deviation from our normal breakfast.On the day we had breakfast on the Palm Deck, it was too busy to ask for a Mai Tai, and the bartender on duty didn't know how to make them the same way. Food was a little slow, but they were slammed with one server on. The food quality was excellent.

Vegetarian options: The fruit salad is to die for, as is the avocado toast see pictures. I believe there were also cereals (I can't eat them so I don't' know).

Dietary restrictions: I am gluten sensitive and there were many options for me. Vegan and vegetarian needs can also be met.

Kid-friendliness: We had our 2 year old nephew and he had a great time. They provided a smaller bowl of yogurt on request. We were able to walk the deck while waiting for our food. There is a lot to distract a little one with the views and the trees and birds nearby. They had high chairs easily accessible too.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access from parking lot (though gravel) to huge elevator, to front door.”

“Stopped by today for a quick bite to eat. I've lived in the lower keys for 6 years and I've never heard of this place. I had steak and chicken tacos and both were delicious! will definitely be stopping by in the future!”

“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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“10/10 recommend! Phillip and Robin were great and the food was amazing!!!”

“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.................”

“Got some pizza today and it was absolutely delicious. The staff was BEYOND kind and gave us a wonderful experience. Definitely stop by if you're in the Keys! ??”

“Blue Waters Grill is an amazing place to hang out. I come here once a month. Yadi, Yeni and Roberto are the best! They make you feel like family as soon as you come to the bar. They are the reason I come back once a month and stay here. Of you are coming to Marathon, you have to stop by Blue Waters Grill.”

“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!”

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

“Visits this location when driving to Key West.
The place was clean and the service was quick. The staff were pleasant.
This place is good if one would like to make a pit stop, there is ample parking and the rest rooms are clean.

Vegetarian options: Good vegetarian options

Dietary restrictions: Good for vegetarians

Parking: Free parking available right in front of the store”

“Hottest place in town… Literally”

“Paul, Giana, monthro, and Abel were the most welcoming friendly people I’ve ever met!! Loved every minute spent with these people and can’t wait to visit them again!!!! Their food was top notch as well as their service….see you again soon!!!”

“It was our first time eating there,,service was lacking a lot,,we had to ask for refills, she did leave a pitcher of water then. We ordered the lasagna dinner that comes with a side salad so we ordered another regular salad since we were splitting the meal. The side salad was pitiful, it came on a coffee saucer it looked like,the regular salad was a good size. For $24 the side salad should have been the same size as the extra salad. She brought our food and we sat there waiting on the bread,,,she comes back by and informed us bread was extra,,,really, I’ve never had a meal at any restaurant where you had to pay extra for bread, most will bring you more if you eat what they served you the first time. The upside was the lasagna was good.”

“I got the smoked fish dip and it was a 10 , delicious”

“This place was recommended by the bartender at our resort. When I saw it was located in a strip mall I did not have high hopes. But everything was beyond excellent. We watched the Eagles game and got a few football specials. My kids each got a burger that they raved about. I had blackened tuna bites that were amazing!!! We will be back next trip!!”

“Best Subs period Love the drink selection”

“Great spot to watch the sunset in the keys”

“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!”

“Disclaimer- we are food snobs. The staff was friendly, and the resort itself is absolutely stunning—a truly spectacular location. The food presentation was impressive, however, the flavors fell short, as the food lacked seasoning and depth. We visited for a late breakfast and, despite the underwhelming taste, the breathtaking setting made the experience memorable. This is such a gorgeous place, and with some improvements to the seasoning, it could be perfect.”

“The food is very good. The local feel of a Mom and Pop diner. I had breakfast consisting of veggie omelette, fried potatoes and a very fluffy biscuit. Staff is very friendly. Will return!”

“Relaxing, chill tiki bar right on the water. It’s behind the Bluegreen Vacations Resort and open to the public. We had the Friday night all you can eat Mahi fish fry and it was delicious. Best fish we had while in the Keys. Highly recommend the Mahi fried fish.”

“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 🥰😊”

“another awesome dinner, tonight we sat at the bar. did was great as usual, and the service was awesome. thank you”
