We had a great experience here. The front of the building does not reflect what’s inside. The sunset view was great. We both had the broiled seafood platter, two salads with blue cheese dressing and loaded baked potato. Our waitress brought out homemade banana bread and sour dough rolls with butter it was great. The special was a prickly pear margarita on the rocks. It was the real deal freshly made prickly pear juice not just a syrup. It was the highlight of my dinner. We enjoyed our food and it was the best meal out of our four days in the keys. We will be back.

Food was great and the service was amazing. Only issue we had was the scallops were very salty. They were still great but heavy in the salt. The prices were also pretty steep but that just seems to be normal these days. This place has some of the best views of the Atlantic that I’ve seen in a restaurant.

We went early (5) to avoid any wait and get seated right away. Don’t let the atmosphere scare you when you walk in, there is a musty smell and the bathrooms are very dated but the service and food were great.
Jorge was our server and he was very kind and efficient.
Sit outside for the best sunset view.
We enjoyed all our food, prepared quickly and delicious! The calamari appetizer was not heavily breaded and was still tender and not chewy like you get when some places over cook it. Hubby got fish which was perfectly blackened and I went with the chicken prepared Lazy Days way and it was incredible! The corn chowder is homemade and very good. You can order just about anything the Lazy Days way and I highly suggest it.

We went in between lunch and dinner with our fresh caught fish. We did the catch and cook and it was fantastic! You can order it cooked two ways and we chose blackened and Lazy Days way. Both delicious. It came with salad and two sides. We were stuffed! The fish presentation was really nicely done. Great service and water views. One of our best meals while in Marathon.

1-Star Review: Lazy Days – The Worst Meal I’ve Had in the Keys and we come down 4 times a year since 1985. I tried this place out because of a YouTuber review. The only redeeming part of our visit to Lazy Days was the appetizer: the calamari was outstanding. It had a subtle sweetness and was the most tender I’ve ever tried—truly the highlight of the entire experience. Everything else was a complete disappointment, starting with the salad. The tomato was rock-hard and unripe, so crunchy that I had to pick it out entirely. I let that slide without complaining, but the main course—the fried seafood platter—was inexcusable. The platter included catch of the day (Mahi Mahi), scallops, clam strips, conch, shrimp, oysters, and more calamari. Here’s the breakdown:
• Scallops: They had a strong off taste. When I peeled back the breading, each “scallop” was a uniform quarter-sized, quarter-inch-thick disc with no sign it had ever been attached to a shell. I pointed this out to the server, who argued with me. The manager (who boasted about his 10 years on the job) joined in, insisting scallops don’t come from shells. After a 10-minute debate, he returned with a quart bucket filled with identical frozen discs—proof they were using cheap, processed substitutes, not real scallops.
• Conch: The menu promised “conch,” but what arrived was a dense, over-fried ball more like a bad hushpuppy than cracked conch. It was dry, flavorless, and indistinguishable from filler—worse than a McDonald’s hashbrown.
• Mahi Mahi: Tasted like generic frozen fish from Aldi. The manager openly admitted nothing on the plate was fresh except the fish itself—and even that was nothing special.
• Shrimp: Fine, but ordinary. No complaints, but certainly nothing to rave about.
• Clam strips and oysters: Bland and forgettable, lost in the mediocrity.
The staff’s defensiveness turned a bad meal into a frustrating ordeal. For a restaurant in the Keys, where fresh seafood should be the standard, Lazy Days serves frozen, misrepresented junk while arguing with customers who call it out. Avoid this place—it’s an insult to anyone who appreciates real coastal dining. I would like to add that the manager was nice enough to remove my order from the bill, but this place needs to improve immensely.

The positive – server was very attentive. Beers on tap were good. The fish sandwich was good.
The bad – I asked the server if the prime rib sandwich was shaves. she said yes…it wasnt. It was just a piece of meat that was burnt (not blackened on one side and greyish on the other). A tough dry piece of meat not even your dog would appreciate but wouldnprobably eat if hungry. My husband ordered the jerk (maybe grilled) chicken sandwich. He said with enough mayo the sandwich was fine. Nothing special. It barely had salt and pepper, definately no jerk seasoning. For the sides, patoato salad is mostly mayo and not very much flavor. A weird scoop of butter found its way on my plate.
Will not be returning.
Agree with another reviewer. It was the worst meal i’ve had in the Keys.
Should mention the prepackaged chocolate ice cream for kids meals was a hit with my niece. of course, it was pre-packaged.
(Probably like everything coming out of their kitchen).

This place the location has a great view but it’s seems to be always slow when we come here. We finally went in and tried it for lunch and the food was very good service was good. We will go back in the future.

We dined here after being rudely treated at Castaway and left. We were pleased with the service, food and atmosphere at LD. We were seated inside with a beautiful view of the water at sunset. Our waiter Robinson was so nice and accommodating. We brought our own catch and he made suggestions for preparation for our grouper & lobster tails. It was lazy days style & Parmesan crusted. The presentation was amazing and it was delicious & perfectly cooked. Our entries included conch chowder & side dish. That chowder was good too. The prices were very reasonable and we will surely be back again. Thanks so much LD!

Great food at a great price with an amazing view. We brought in our own fresh fish from what we caught that day. We had it prepared multiple ways. Grilled, blackened and lazy days 2 different ways one with jalapeño which was amazing.

Food was bad. Mahi mahi sandwich fish was thin and hard. Service was bad. Asked for sauce and never received it. Left without water for a long time. Server only came by every 10-15 minutes. Atmosphere was bad. Everything was dirty and gross. Oddly quiet at times with no music people talking.
