We've been going to the Sand Bar on and off for decades and it's consistently good. We went twice…read moreon our most recent vacation. The first day I took advantage of their crab legs special (Sundays and Mondays) which came with melted butter and fries and was delicious! The second time, we went for lunch again, and brought the fish we had caught on an excursion that morning (snapper, trout, whiting, I think). They can prepare it in multiple ways and we chose to do half fried and half grilled. It was delicious! Note that whenever we have visited, it has been for lunch so I can't speak to the evening atmosphere, but during the day it's very laid back, and often mostly locals. My husband declares it's the best grouper sandwich he's had, and he says that on every trip, even though we go to other restaurants.

My mom, sister, and I stopped by during happy hour to kick off our night and were really impressed. We had the warm peel-and-eat shrimp, buffalo wings, and oysters. I was genuinely surprised by how fresh the oysters were for a sports bar! The shrimp came in a buttery beer boil with crackers and cocktail sauce -- absolutely delicious. It's casual, reliable, and always hits the spot. Servers are always super reliable and nice!

We were able to get a table right away for our group of 6, which was awesome. We sat inside and because Masters golf was on TV, the live music that was scheduled to play that night was delayed. I have heard that when the music is going at Paddy Murphy's, it becomes impossible to have a conversation so it was not a bad thing that we were able to have dinner and talk to each other. Though we will have to return one night for the live music. Our server was awesome, very helpful. There were a few things on the cocktail menu that were not available but he guided us to other options. We started with the Mac & Cheese Bites which were delicious. Though I really wish they had some potato skins and mozzarella sticks on the menu, too. When I think about fall football at the local pub, those are the snacks I most enjoy. For dinner I had the fish & chips which was awesome. It looked like a heavy batter, but it was so light. The fish was cooked perfectly, and the batter crunched so nicely. The French fries were wide steak fries, which were good and crispy. I usually like my fries a little overdone and skinny, but these fit the meal very well. Prices are incredibly affordable, especially for Marco Island. We will be back!

They brought in a new kitchen staff that changed the recipe for what was their signature meal, the chicken wings, and continue the downfall with substandard cooking.

The space is just limited since the restaurant sits up against the beach. Seven of us came in around 3 or 4pm and the staff were able to turn on the game for us and find adequate seating. There's a selection of beers and sweet drinks - even some non-alcoholic options. There is a pretty typical sports bar atmosphere and that includes the food selection. There are a lot of options, and there were a few options that didn't contain gluten, which was nice. My husband and I ordered shrimp and steak tacos, which were tasty. For a sports bar, it definitely does the job.

Food: My wife had an appetizer portion of boneless wings: looks to be white meat chicken that was pan fried till crispy not deep fried which she enjoyed the crispness off. She got there bbq sauce tasted like baby rays but didn't confirm. We split a large bar style pretzel! Super salty but in a good way. Then we made the discovery as I asked about a side of honey mustard! THEY MAKE THERE OWN HINEY MUSTARD WITH REAL Honey!!! Delicious! I had the Baja shrimp tacos! We're a good size definitely recommend! Nice hint of kick!! Our baby who was with us had Mac and cheese it was Kraft. But we were ok with that knowing exactly what is was. Totally underrated and hope people use this review to take a real look into the restaurant. Service was super nice! Very accommodating to family's. Which has its own challenges while being in Marco island. We will return! Good luck everyone!!! See you next year

We were told the keg had an issue so no turtle, strike 1 We ordered another IPA and after 5 minutes or so waitress returned and said they didn't have that either. Finally we ordered a beer and they had it. We ordered dinner and waited 30 plus minutes before flagging down someone pointing out three other tables received their food before us and we ordered way before them? After a few minutes three meals arrived and one was wrong and we were able to flag down our waitress who clearly was overwhelmed. I noted that I had ordered the Fisherman's Feast which included Cole slaw, I told waitress that I ordered Cole slaw but NO FRIES and meal came out with Fries but no Cole slaw? She said I have evidence here but didn't want to argue? Really the other 2 diners and a 2 year old heard exactly what I ordered. Needless to say the Cole slaw arrived a few minutes later. The shrimp and grouper were good and clams were ok but slightly overcooked. 2.2 ~5 One diner ordered a patty melt and it was just flat out bland. No onions just a slab of ground beef and cheese making it marginal at best. It seems they forgot to grill the bread and after all we waited over half an hour so they certainly had time. Score 1-5 the other dinner had Philly steak flat bread that was 5-5 so one thing went right. Cheese pizza tasted like it was from a bowling alley or 7-11 so that was a 1-5 score. This place is a one and done for this group. Beware diners unless you are going there to watch TV and drink the beers they may or may not have.

The menu had alot of choices. I had a burger and my wife ordered a salad. She had a glass of wine and I ordered a Coke. In waiting for our food, we noticed how big the place was. There is a seperation before the main bar and the dining room. Booths are lined on the outside of the room with table and chairs on the inside of the dining room. Our server was awesome. My wife was looking for a particular IPA and the server did all he could do to bring over something that she liked. He gave her, at least, 3 choices before she decided to get some wine. We were both really impressed with his service and caring to try to get something she would like! Great way to start dinner! Food came and it was excellent.
