We have been here multiple times for a good reason.Their food is always fresh and tasty.Their service team is always friendly and helpful.And their atmosphere is bustling and convivial without being too noisy.If you re looking for fresh, delicious seafood, served by people who CARE about their clients, you MUST try Little Bar.PS. Ask to be seated in Elaine s section. She s been with them for years, knows her menu backwards and forwards, and is entertaining and attentive without being intrusive.

This restaurant is only about 15 minutes from the main Marco Island beach resorts. It is a diamond in the rough. They have the best grouper sandwich I ve ever had. Their homemade tartar sauce is fantastic. My wife loved her mahi mahi plate and the kids loved their scallops. We ate at Pincher s earlier in the week and were very disappointed, thus place is worth the drive! Susan (Suzanne?) was our waitress and she was very nice.Parking: Several places to parkKid-friendliness: Very patient with our kids.

Great service and good food! Our order came out very quickly even though there was 13 of us. It's a unique little place with some amazing views from the patio. I would definitely eat there again.

The place is amazing. Super chill vibes, nice sunset views, pleasant staff.Food was fresh and delicious. We had soft shell crab and blackened mahi-mahi - both dishes were great. Our daughter loved her key lime pie for desert.Will definitely come back.

Came here on a Friday night. No reservations. 1 1/2 wait. I had just visited my dad in the hospital. Day was stressful. I don't know what happened but the waitress found my husband and I a small table tucked away within minutes. Ordered and ate a delicious meal of mixed green salad (no iceberg) and blackened grouper. Couple of glasses of wine later... band starts up. Nice crowd. Great end to my less than fabulous day. Favorite spot on Goodland and....Marco TBH. Overall great vibe. Make reservations and sit outside. You will not be disappointed. It feels and is, authentic!

Update:Went here 12/22 and weren t impressed by service or kitchen even though it wasn t busy. Food was quick but almond shrimp tasted like reheated from day before and my margarita was very weak. Grouper balls were good and the fries were hot. Maybe just off day but wasn t very pleased.Great food, views and staff! For apps we loved the grouper balls, they have just a little heat which made the flavor perfect. I also had the steamed mussels which were delicious. For lunch we had blackened mahi, fried grouper sandwich and broiled mahi. The fish was cooked perfectly and tasted great! The cole slaw that is served with the dinner is a bit bland but that s my only real negative. There s outdoor and indoor seating available and you can dock a boat as well. A must stop for Goodland!

Fantastic seafood bar and restaurant along the water in Marco Island. Fresh seafood with tons of options, cheap drinks, and the best service you can ask for. Only open October thru June, this place is a treasure when you are looking for authentic south Florida hospitality and food.

The Little Bar is my favorite place to eat when we visit Marco.I insist that we go 2-3 times during our week stay. This time Jan 2024, we were seated outside and were eaten alive by all the bugs. They were crawling on our food and my guest and I are now covered with bug bites. I was so bad that a local shopkeeper thought I had chicken pox. Had I realized how badly I was getting bitten, we would have walked out. When we complained, the waiter offered to "spray". We didn't want to spray around our food. We asked for citronella, but they don't have any. At any rate, go for the fabulous food, but do not sit outside until they get something in place for the bugs. Perhaps a screened area, or another form of bug repellent. I am hoping that these welts and bites don't scar!

It's an experience!Really unique little dive-bar type atmosphere, dimly lit inside with a good amount of spread out out door setting right on the water.Food was good, not great. Ordered blackened shrimp, blackened grouper and fried grouper (both grouper meals on tossed greens). Quality and freshness were great. Fries with the shrimp order were amazing. Fried and seasoned to perfection.Best bonus besides the water views was the live music from neighboring Stan's seafood restaurant.All in all, great place. Would recommend passing through Marco to check out this place.

Little bar was such a delight! The food was fantastic and our server was very attentive and accommodating. The pricing was super reasonable for the quality. My husband had prime rib and I had the stone crab dinner. We also took a slice of chocolate mousse cake to go which was amazing. We expected our bill to come out way higher and were pleasantly surprised. Don t get me won t, you ll certainly pay well for a nice dinner but it s 100% worth the value and then some. The ambiance was laid back and we especially loved the oversized table side menu and the amazing nutcrackers that lined the patio in December. After dinner, we went into the bar area for live music. The musician was fantastic and had the whole bar singing along. This place is a little gem and we would come back in a heartbeat!

Located just outside of Marco Island this small old little restaurant has the island feel. Interesting memorable on the walls with the townie drinkers sitting at the bar. This place isn't fancy but that's why I love it. Come as you are and eat good food for a decent price. Known for their seafood, this place does it right. I'm a huge fan of the Stone Crab, when in season, and the catch of the days. They also make pretty good scallops which they serve two different ways cooked. They have inside and patio seating with views of the water. Occasional fish jumping out and laughter from surrounding bars. Look to spend about fifty to seventy dollars on good seafood there.

Food is excellent!! Fresh seafood. Delicious. Great service. It is a waterfront restaurant. You can get there by driving or "parkin" your boat, kayak and jump in the restaurant.

One of our favourite places, on the water, to go for soft shell crab, grouper, and shrimp when in FL.Disappointed I can't have their French fries, frogs legs or sauted soft shell crab as they have flour and I am Celiac but there are lots of other choices.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options available
