This is where the locals go after they finish their shifts at the other manasota key joints. Drinks are poured well. Be sure to try the margaritas on tap. Cheap and memorable. Wash it down with a draft beer or a shot of tequila. Come to see the Florida native wildlife and leave smiling.

Alligator bites were not good, too chewy. Nachos great like always. Fries are delicious. Got the…read moreburger with the cheese curds and cranberry sauce and it was really good. Same with the coconut shrimp, yummy. One thing I hate it just that they never pick up any dirty plates, empty cups, dirty napkins. It's so hard to eat with 500 things on the table. It's like this every time.

Ordering gluten free meals is always somewhat of a risk. Our server even logged my gluten allergy…read moreinto her handheld device but still managed to get it wrong. I couldn't eat the fries and they don't allow any substitutions even for food allergies. I won't be going back! Not a nice place to eat anyway unless the weather is nice.

We had a great experience at Lock 'N Key Restaurant! We went around 11:00 AM on the Fourth of July,…read morethe service was attentive and friendly. The food was excellent, with generous portions and great flavor. The kids' meal was especially impressive it was huge and offered great value. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meal, and we left full and happy. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Englewood!

Getting off the beach, this was a perfect spot for grub. The bat was packed, im sorry I didnt get…read moreto experience what I heard is the best service for happy hour but a tavle was just as good, our young server very pleasant. I had the Manasota Key Salad with grilled Chicken, and let me just say, I ate this around 3pm & could not have anything else for the rest of the day!!! What a salad!!! Gorgonzola with pecans, raisins, greens, the amount of chicken on my plate, WOWZA! SO DELICIOUS!!! My mojito wasnt bad either They even have valet parking, which looks ridiculous upon first glance, but I bet at 5 or 6 pm when traffic is really flowing, it makes perfect sense. Rock on you guys, great spot, would love to visit again.

Excellent experience. Tried the barbecue sampler. Green beans were cooked perfectly, coconut rice…read morewas absolutely delicious. I must try for anyone. The barbecue overall was very good. Brisket was a little dry, but everything else was so delicious that I wasn't even interested in the brisket. The sausage was an absolute must try. Ribs were great. Chicken was delicious. Overall, staff was nice and got seated quickly despite going on a busy night. Had time to grab a drink at the end of the dock around sunset before we ate. Great live music playing classic hits. Really a fantastic overall experience. Parking lot is tight, but got a spot right away.

Gluten Free (Celiac):…read more Had a great experience! Nothing is marked on the menu but my waitress was good with running to the kitchen to check on items. I had the baby back ribs, they were so tender. Sides: the fries used to be gluten free but are now fried in a shared fryer. Since I didn't feel comfortable eating any of the sides I asked if I could have a caesar salad instead (no croutons). They do not offer side salads (should!) but since my order came with 2 sides she just charged me $4 for the originally $16 salad in substitute for the two $5 sides included in my order. The atmosphere was wonderful. Dick and Kammy played live music and the sunset on the deck was beautiful! Would definitely come back to try the gluten free chocolate torte :)
