We were on our way to Key West and ordered sushi to go... a little out of the way and at first we were not sure if our map was correct, but there it was. Some of the best Sushi we have ever had. so very good

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.

This restaurant is a little hard to find but its worth it. We had the pleasure of once again dining at Castaway's. 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

I come to Marathon every year to Tarpon fish and this restaurant is always a must stop for me. Great fresh seafood and try the sushi if you want something different. Very nice rustic atmosphere and friendly service.

Unfortunately, the best thing about our Castaway's experience was their cute menu names tying in with their advertising campaign- with a Gilligan's Island theme. After hearing so much about it on the radio, we drove up there from Key West to try it. Big disappointment. My fried oysters tasted like they just came from a box in the freezer section... More

We arrived on a Friday night expecting difficulty finding a special seating arrangement. We were led though a number of crowded rooms to a deck at the back on the water. As far as we were concerned it was the best seat in the house. While eating a top notch meal, we enjoyed the activity in and across the waterway.... More
