Lighthouse Kitchen + Bar

Had breakfast here only once. Asked about gluten-free items from my daughter with Celiac and our server did not know what gluten-free was. After speaking with management it turned out the only thing she could have was bacon and eggs. Definitely not the same level as hotels we've stayed in the upper keys. They don't even have gluten-free bread, which was pretty shocking. I had the biscuits with chorizo, gravy, and eggs. That was quite good.

We loved the Lighthouse Grill! It was walking distance from our hotel and was in a super nice location near the marina! It is apart of the Faro Blanco Resort & Yacht Club but the restaurant is open to the public! The atmosphere was great and since it was apart of a yacht club so it was a bit more on the higher end side but we didn't feel out of place in casual attire. There was light music and great lighting, just be careful the flooring is slippery! The staff (our server was Edwin) was super knowledgable and helpful when asked about the menu, for example, gluten free options or if we could order of the lunch menu and directed us to his favorite choices from both. Everything came out on time and correctly, he was a great server! The food was also fantastic! We were first given complimentary bread! We ordered the 'Chicken Lollipop' for our appetizer and would recommend 10/10. They had a habanero sauce on them that gave them a good kick. For our entrees we got the skirt steak, which was cooked perfectly, the shrimp scampi and the shrimp BLT salad. Everything was delicious, our only turn off to the salad was the dressing was a bit bland and the smokey margarita was very smokey. We had to add a bit of salt and pepper to the salad to give it some flavor. But the dressing was gluten free!! Overall, a great restaurant and will definitely be coming back again!
