The food was tasty and the wait staff were friendly! We went at night and loved all the Christmas lights. Very festive. Parking was easy to get in and out. We will be back. Thank you for a great dining experience!!
Right before summer came to a close and a few weeks before Halloween we went to Marina Grill again It was a pretty slow day in this beautiful restaurant! Service was great as usual ... their salads are amazing so of course I had to go with that and my daughter had this crab stuffed salmon . In the end, we couldn't decide what to have for dessert at the end so we had both of their delicious sounding cakes. Nothing better than eating lunch and looking outside onto the pier watching the boats. Definitely planning a return visit.
This was a really cool place for a good drink, good food and very attentive staff. There were four of us and we had everything from calamari to a cucumber margarita to shrimp tacos, fish platter and salads. The food was pretty good ... the hospitality was even better. Douglas (Dougie) had good suggestions and made accommodations to fit our requests. He was friendly with a great sense of humor too. To top it off Alan, the manager I think, stopped by near the end of our stay to check on us. Overall a great place. We'll be back when we're next in the area!!
The food was outstanding--truly well-executed and delicious. Our server, a gracious gentleman (Greg maybe?), was exceptionally kind and friendly.
Marina Grill - beautiful view of the marina and surrounding area and comfortable seating available. Our server was super nice and helpful. We ordered grouper sandwiches with sweet potato fries and it was one of the best grouper sandwiches I've had. The fish was fresh, flakey and flavorful. They had a special tartar sauce on the sandwich, and I asked for extra on the side as it was a nice piece of fish-on the bread. The fry's had a sprinkling of sugar on them which gave them a nice taste. This was a good serving so be hungry if you order. I look forward to going back and trying other items on the menu everything looked delicious obvious really pretty place. The view of the marina added such a pretty backdrop for lunch and the ambiance of the grill is beautifully decorated. The location is easy to find. We walked around the marina after lunch and admired all the boats.
