Restaurants near Boca Grande Lighthouse Museum

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Tarpon Lodge Restaurant, and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish! The ambiance of the restaurant is simply stunning, with a charming, rustic feel that perfectly complements the beautiful surroundings. Whether you're dining inside or enjoying the outdoor patio, you’ll be treated to a peaceful view of the water and nature. Don't forget the mango jalapeno margarita! Delicious! The service was top-notch — our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. We started with a delicious appetizer of fresh triple tail. For the main course, we had steak and fresh catch, and it was absolutely divine. The seafood was incredibly fresh, and the steak was cooked to perfection, with just the right balance of flavors. One of the highlights of the meal was the dessert — the key lime pie was hands-down the best! It was light, tart, and just the right amount of sweetness, making for the perfect ending to a memorable meal. I also appreciated the restaurant's commitment to using fresh, local ingredients, which really shines through in every dish. It’s clear that the chefs at Tarpon Lodge take great pride in their work. If you’re looking for a laid-back yet elegant dining experience with outstanding food and service, I highly recommend Tarpon Lodge Restaurant. I can’t wait to return!

This was our anniversary dinner and they gave us a lovely booth and complimentary champagne. Our server was great. We were not rushed. My pistachio encrusted grouper was piping hot and very tasty. Unfortunately my sides were cold. Our server brought new potatoes and asparagus so everything was great.

We had a great dinner at The Green Flash! It was my fiancée birthday. They comped a dessert when I told them. She had Veal Zurich and really enjoyed it. I had stuffed shrimp. Six shrimp with crab and breadcrumbs stuffing. If you’ve had this before you know it’s a small mound of stuffing on a butterflied shrimp, but very tasty! The dessert we chose was a chocolate mousse. Wonderful! Whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, and mousse!

Steaks were excellent! Try the Brussels sprouts. Very tasty! Home made ice cream is a treat for dessert as well!
