When you come to a spot like this, you might expect generic food, overpriced and only worth it in a pinch. In reality, the island grill was a mix of great service, awesome atmosphere and a bomb beef burger that I was ready to order another one despite being food. Come here, get a beer, burger, and just chill. You won't regret it read more

Relaxing, dog friendly, music, internet, and last but not least, Next to the beach at 9000 ft elevation. Happy hour is $10 cocktails and $20 half pound cheeseburgers. Not a place to visit on a small budget. Friendly, helpful service. Dogs not allowed on upper deck due to leashes tripping hazard. read more

Good drinks, great view and the food will do in a pinch. Lots of seating, dog friendly! read more

The Island Grill - Margarita and Bloody Mary - Bars Near Me - Frisco, Colorado

We came here strictly for the location/views. We only come to Colorado in the winter so jumped at the opportunity to eat here during our visit this summer. The place was pretty empty so we had our pick of tables. We really liked being about to sit on the roof and enjoy the view. They have quite a varied menu and everything sounded good. I had the mushroom tacos and my husband had the salmon poke bowl. Both were very good, but small portions for the price. However, the wait was short and the staff was friendly. I loved that they had gluten free items marked on the menu. read more

This is a little cafe right on the lake, and the scenery is gorgeous. We came for lunch and a couple beers, food was average, beer is cold. Service is comparable to other places in this area. We will be back. read more

The Island Grill - Salad - Bars Near Me - Frisco, Colorado

Great views of Lake Dillon especially if you can sit up top. The edamame has a nice hint of lemon

Stopped in for some drinks before a concert and fell in love with the place. Waitress Emily with the tattoos is an absolute peach and can't wait to come back and see her again! read more

Food and service were great - Kelly was our server and was very kind and knowledgeable about the menu. There are several open areas where kids can run around, and the view is beautiful. read more

Loved the location, on the beach area of the marina, our server was great, good drinks and burgers

Great setting at the Frisco Marina. The cheese burgers are the best in Summit County and the Poke tacos (appetizer) are excellent with crispy homemade taco shells. Staff is personable and attentive. read more

It's really nice to have a little place to eat/drink when you get off the water. We actually started way on the other side and kayaked all the way here for mimosas and food haha we sat on the upper patio and could see our kayaks from there so that was a plus. Mimosas were pretty decent and so was the food! Nothing fancy, but you don't really need or expect that at this kind of location. Service was great by the way, she was super friendly and helpful when my messy drunk friend spilled her drink haha read more

The Island Grill - Bratwurst, potato salad, and mimosassss :) - Bars Near Me - Frisco, Colorado

Outside seating was nice with the shade. Staff was so kind and helpful. Note: You get your own water through a gatorade sports pitcher so that was weird. The sides are TINY for what you pay for when you're paying $14 per meal. We received 1/4 - 1/2 cup of coleslaw with the meal. The kettle chips were from a bag. It felt a little more like carnival food so paying $70 for it was much (2 adults, 3 kids) for the taste. It was alright but I don't think worth $70. I was shocked that french fries were not offered for this kind of place. read more

The Island Grill - Fish tacos - Bars Near Me - Frisco, Colorado

Sat down and our table waiting for the rest of our party to park. Our server,Dakota, came by to take a drink order. Was not very friendly and shut down every question we had. He definitely acted like he was doing us a favor to wait on us. It took over an hour to get our food. Our sever only addressed us when we asked about our order. The food was sub par at best. The service and food was awful. Will not be back. read more

A great place for drinks, servers are great but the kitchen must be too small for the number of tables available. We went for lunch and waited nearly two hours today for a chicken salad sandwich with a bag of chips! Drinks were very good, but took too long also. read more

As locals, we love local spots and supporting them. I watched so many tourists, or city-idts, stop and ask the staff were the restroom was so many times and treat them like such ugly people!!! they all stood up and even if they weren't dining there, smiled (under their masks) and were so polite. After working in the industry for so many years and I would have been ugly and sassy. They kept it together. way to go! I was so annoyed sitting next to the host stand and every 5 minutes have people ask where the bathroom was!!!!! for christs sake, there are signs!! EVERYWHERE. Anyway, their coconut shrimp was divine!!! but so over priced! read more

We were waited on ver y quickly by Jessica abs had our drinks right away. the fish tacos arrived in under 15 min and were amazing with large pieces of fish. The ambiance is always great read more

Please don't let the convenience of this place fool you! All of the other reviews are very accurate.... We waited over an hour to get food after having to inquire about it several times. Staff was not apologetic at all. Food was decent but definitely not worth the wait! read more

We grabbed a quick lunch before our boat ride, and they seated us immediately on the patio. The tuna poke tacos were perfect, just enough, delicious and fresh. The most impressive part of our visit was the hustle provided by our waiter whose name I think was John. We told him we were on a tight schedule, and he accommodated us so efficiently. That guy was amazing. We definitely recommend. read more

This place needs an intervention. 90 minute wait for lunch with a moderate crowd. Servers were great and moving fast but the kitchen and bar couldn't keep up especially the kitchen. read more

Mediocre food - incredibly slow service - beautiful scenery. Skip the fish tacos because there is so little fish and tortillas were garbage. If you have to eat here, go for the South Beach Sandwich. Service is far too slow for us to come back. Over 2 hours for bags of chips and overpriced sandwiches. read more

Can't wait for memorial day weekend . The place looks great and the hand picked pro staff is pumped, don't tiki when u can be an islander

We stumbled across this place, really the only place near the lake and marina in Frisco on our recent trip to Breckenridge. Understandably the restaurant was short staffed and our waiter was doing the best he could do with what he had. It took a while for our menus and waters to come out, but we were patient as there was no rush and it was a very nice day. They were out of chicken, so we ordered salads and fish tacos. All a bit on the bland side...wished they had some hot sauce! As a manager or owner I know I would pay closer attention to inventory for the busy time of the Summer season. After our meal we cruised the beach and dock area...super nice. read more

I've always gotten the coconut shrimp and Bloody Mary's here but this time decided to also get the ahi tuna. Bloody was extremely thick and would barely sip up my straw, the ahi tuna ($14) was way over cooked and had no flavor at all but the shrimp was good. My boyfriend got the chicken sandwich, the bread was extremely stale, chicken was kind of dry but overall OK. Pretty disappointed regarding how expensive everything was. Also everything is served on paper plates... Hopefully next time I come back for the bloody it will be better. I've had better experiences! read more

The Island Grill - Bars Near Me - Frisco, Colorado

Zero. No star at all. Super rude and super homophobic. Waiter was rude from the beginning and spoke to us as if we didn't understand the "dirty" vs. "clean" on the table. He explained it to us like we were children. The host was rude. Not Covid19 friendly either. read more

Never would I have expected such a terrible menu for a beautiful marina in a resort town. Bags of chips with meals??? $10 grilled cheeses??? Cmon now, pretty pathetic. Luckily we just had a drink and came into town for some food. read more

The menu is ok , for a grill, but they were out of the chicken salad sandwich. Kids meals seem expensive - $7 for a hot dog and bag of chips. Cole slaw had no flavor. My grilled chicken sandwich had no seasoning. And the bun was cold. The thing that irritated me the most, is my daughter sent back her sesame noodle salad- after 1 bite. They didn't ask if she would like something else- and they charged us for the salad. The manager never came by to see what was wrong. Wont be returning. On the other hand- the dillon marina has pretty good food. read more

Great views to go with fish tacos. Everything very nice! Outdoor seating was perfect. Quick service.

Great place to chill after a boat or bike around Dillion Reservoir. We love the Pina coladas. Pineapple shrimp awesome and the service was great! Thanks Marcus! read more

The Island Grill - Bars Near Me - Frisco, Colorado

Best location in Frisco to grab drinks and food in the summer time, wish it could be open year round with how good their menu is! The Salmon Poke Bowl is hands down the best poke I've found up here. Can't go wrong with the burgers, veggie burger options, or fish tacos either. The service is always amazing too! read more

The Island Grill at the Frisco Bay Marina is a great little warm-weather place with great food, great views, and good prices. You can choose to sit on the roof deck with 360' views of the mountains and Lake Dillon, or choose the lower deck or the "indoor" tent seating (with canvas walls that shield you from the frequent windy afternoons). The wait staff is friendly, if not always incredibly prompt. They make you feel like a local here (in a good way!) Come between 4pm-7pm for their exceptional happy hour, with $1.50 PBRs, $2.50 microbrews, or for $4.00 you can enjoy their signature Island Sunset, a deceptively smooth and fruity frozen drink. I think they actually limit customers to two each of these very powerful little red, yellow, and orange devils. If you're not acclimated to the altitude yet, take it easy. The food is a little bit more colorful than your average bar fare. They have pulled pork sandwiches, a good asian coleslaw, burritos, burgers, etc, and usually a very tasty daily special. The prices are good for Summit County, where you're generally lucky to get food and drinks for two for under $40. We usually get done at the Island Grill for $30 or so. This place is dog and kid friendly. They are nestled in the marina between vast grassy lawns and the boat piers. The real test of their service was when we had dinner here on the 4th of July. Despite being packed to the gills with hungry and thirsty visitors, our friendly, attentive waitress did not miss a beat! Very impressive for a place that, at all appearances, is run by sailors or surfers or other relaxed individuals. NOTE TO WINTER VISITORS -- I do not think the Island Grill is open in the colder months, given its mostly-outdoors arrangements. Probably open from late May thru September, if I had to guess. read more

What a fun place to hang out, great food and drinks and lots of games with occasional live music. Staff is very friendly too!

Service very attentive, we got 4 lunches and everyone was happy with their food. I was wary with so many bad reviews but everything was great. Weekday so it wasn't busy. read more

One of the best summer spots in the mountains. You can find a good happy hour here from 4-7pm, with live music, kids and dogs roaming around. Beer prices aren't great, but wells and mixed prices are decent $3.50-$5.00. This is a casual outdoor bar and grill that I enjoyed the setting sun at many times this summer. read more

The food was mediocre at best, the drinks just so-so, and the service was dreadful. The cheese on my burger was burnt onto the burger, and my "medium well" burger was burned to a crisp (black!) all over... It's too bad considering this place has a prime location on the marina! The ONLY redeeming aspects: the mango daiquiri was all right the environment is beautiful read more

Decided to come out to Frisco Marina for what seemed to be like an awesome day. We had an alright time and it was very beautiful until we headed towards the Island Grill for some lunch. The service seemed to be a little sub bar, but I was fine with it because the restaurant is located at a marina and it was a beautiful Saturday. I ordered the South Beach Sandwich as it was recommended by the server. The sandwich was alright, but it was later when I began to have some problems. It was that night when I realized I had food poisoning from Island Grill. It was a very rough few days. I wish I could say I had a better experience, but unfortunately not! I hope if I ever do return to Frisco Bay Marina, that they make some improvements all around. The employees also seemed to not really enjoy their line of work. Never saw a smile and I like to consider myself a smiley person. Hope some of you guys fine this useful! read more

4 stars for the great setting After a day on the water or biking, stop here read more

Mediocre food, mediocre service at best. Pro: some seating has nice lake views. After my friend and I parted at the restaurant we ran into each other at Whole Foods, both getting something to eat. That should tell you everything. read more

We went for the atmosphere but the experience was the worst ever. There was like 5 servers wondering around as my family and I were standing at the host stand waiting to be seated. We waited like 15min. No one came to great or seat us. I had to go to someone to ask them to seat us. Then our server took a long time to even acknowledge us. Food was horrible on top of it. read more

I LOVE this place! Good vibes and good drinks all for great prices! Try their Mai Thai! This is one of my favorite places to go after a hot day on the lake with some friends! read more

They were great and the view was beautiful. I forget my servers name but she was awesome. Loved the coconut shrimp.
