Decent place for dinner situated between Bradenton and Longboat Key. Honestly not much to say here the food was above pretty good, the atmosphere at the time we went was pretty quiet. I did get a bit of a vibe from the staff like we were an inconvenience… but giving grace here as it could have been an off night. Kids menu was pretty standard, all in all no surprises but I can’t say there was a WOW factor from the food we ate or our general experience. Good news… this place is located right next to a Tyler’s Ice Cream, so can go treat yourself after.

I highly recommend Lazy Lobster of Longboat Key. Not only was our service amazing, our new friend and bartender, Courtney provided us a ‘cure all’ for frizzy (humid!) hair. She was amazing. I enjoyed the lobster roll. Succulent. But the chips. Omg. I even took them in a to go container- they are like a crispy and chewy explosion. My friend had two lobster tails. The square of potato au gratin was the highlight along with the French haricots vert.

Excellent menu and crowd size is medium. The early bird specials are excellent for lunch. We ordered the Key West Shrimp dinner that came with coleslaw and fries. The coleslaw has a junto of pineapple so an added twist of flavor for those of us that are foodies. Would recommend this place 100%!

Dinner was incredible. We liked it so much we returned for lunch a few days later. Sadly, the service wasn't as good as our first visit.

Stringent. Masks are required upon entering and while moving about the restaurant. Our Main Dining Room is still voluntarily operating at 50% capacity. Outside seating is not crammed like other places we've seen. Menus are sanitized after every use and all hi-touch surfaces are cleaned throughout the shift. Restrooms are noticeably clean. Our restaurant was one of the first 100 restaurants in the state of Florida to receive the FRLA Seal of Commitment, for enhanced training and sanitation practices.

Not that I am aware of

Hello! I am coming to visit the area the weekend of Oct 24.. I was wondering if you had if you have a view of the sunset on the gulf... thanks

Mandy Aran | Oct 23, 2020

Hello Mandy! Glad you are coming to our beautiful area! its really the perfect time to do so, before the crowds descend. We do not have a direct view of the sunset because businesses other than resorts are relegated to the bay side of the gulf. You will be able to walk across Gulf of Mexico drive and easily see it from several public beach access points or perhaps from the resort you're staying at. Hope you'll join us for dinner!

do you ship maine lobsters to Chicago, illinois

Joan Wall | Aug 24, 2020
Lazy Lobster Longboat Key (Owner) | Aug 25, 2020

Hi Joan, I'm sorry I did not respond sooner, I just returned from vacation. Unfortunately we do not ship our Maine lobsters. Your last name raised my curiosity and though I'm certain there are lots of Wall's in Chicago, but are you related to the Wall family that used to spend their winters on Longboat Key? Fond memory recalls the first name of Burton? Kind regards, Michael Garey - Co-Proprietor
