The Lazy Lobster - Longboat Key, FL

summer is for locals

Our quietest season is your best time to be here. Join us Monday through Thursday, August 10 through September 30, and enjoy 15% off our Early Dining Menu until 5:30 p.m. or 15% off our regular dinner menu from 4:00–8:30 p.m. Settle in, sip something refreshing during Happy Hour, and savor the quieter side of the season. And, as always, Lazy Lobster Rewards are welcome.

RESERVATIONS

Save a spot - we'll take care of the rest.

Whether you’re joining us for early dining, a relaxed evening out, or a special celebration, reserving your table ensures the experience you’re looking for. From fresh seafood to signature cocktails and genuine Longboat Key hospitality, we look forward to welcoming you.

OUTDOOR DINING ON OUR BEAUTIFUL GARDEN TERRACE

No reservation? No problem.

Our garden terrace is always welcoming walk-ins, offering a relaxed way to enjoy fresh seafood under the open sky. We also offer hi-top seating in the lounge and a cozy 12-stool bar — perfect for a casual bite, a glass of wine, or lingering longer than planned.

A FRESH TAKE ON CATERING

Thoughtful food. Familiar favorites. Done the Lazy Lobster way.

Sarasota has some wonderful caterers — but we kept hearing the same thing: the menus were starting to feel a little predictable. Our catering is built the same way we build our restaurant menus — with care, balance, and crowd-pleasing dishes made from quality ingredients. From seafood favorites to comforting classics, everything is prepared fresh and designed to travel well, without losing its soul.

Always Fresh Seafood

Private dining AND GROUP RESERVATIONS

Some gatherings deserve more than a standard reservation.

Our Private Dining Room comfortably accommodates groups of 10–16 guests and offers an intimate setting for celebrations, business dinners, and special occasions. For larger gatherings, we can host groups of up to 40 guests in our main dining room while still delivering the attentive service and warm hospitality we’re known for.
