After finally locating this place we went to eat for dinner and were not disappointed. It's oceanfront but you cant see the ocean from the outside seating not sure about inside. The atmosphere was quaint and there seemed to be many regulars at the bar it was very nice and comfortable. Service was very friendly except hostess who we watched... More

Tucked out of the way, Castaways is like a dirty little secret!!! I have lived in the lower Fl. Keys for a year now and have tried lots of places. I have learned to move away from beef , chicken, and pork and onto fish, but was never brave enough to try sushi...Castaways made my first experience one that I'll... More

Service was absolutely awful at this restaurant. Food was ok but when you have to enter an establishment and the first thing you encounter is loud intoxicated patrons, that doesn't make a great impression. Server was absolutely horrible. Took forever for server to come take our order & took even longer for him to bring the drinks & food out... More

We visited this restaurant per the recommendation of our resort's bartender. It met our expectations for our first night in Marathon. The food was pretty good--we loved the extensive menu and I wish we had tried the sushi! Fish dishes were a little expensive but we will full and satisfied when we left. Atmosphere was fun and filled with Keys... More

This was our second visit to Castaway. We stopped in for dinner this time. As always there were some fresh and interesting daily specials that all sounded good. We ordered the crab cake appetizer. It was very fresh and full of crab meat. A little disappointed you only got one for $9. For dinner we had the Stuffed Hogfish. This... More

Went for dinner with the family. I tried two different sushi rolls which were pretty good. Not the best I had but fresh and tasty. Conch fritters were good and I was told the sea scallop entree was delicious. I would recommend this place for a family.

Our waitress (Maria) was such a joy, always a smile and very attentive .We started with an appetizer of Lumpia which was delicious and cocktails. My martini was made perfect! My entree was Sashimi Special dinner which included... More

Atmosphere: Originally a sports bar and after a few owners, it’s a busy spot, even at 7:00PM when we got there. Located on Waterfront Drive has its pros and cons. It’s easy to get there and find a parking spot in the evenings. But if you seat in the front area the traffic noise is very bad. That’s where we... More

There are very few places anywhere that offer the variety and quality of Castaway... and it will take more than one visit to truly appreciate everything they offer. Let me start with one word: honeybuns. Mmmm. Drinks before dinner? Sure... but it's a tough decision. 33 beers from around the world on tap... a full liquor bar (with tasty classic... More
