I visited the Lazy Flamingo last year during my stay in Captiva. It wasn't that clean and all of the food was to salty! I preferred the Mad Hatter much better! more

Uh....I use to love this place unitl I got sick from it. I was up all night.....I don't know how I got sick, but I think the burger was WAY TO rare and the mayonnaise also was bad. I was very disapointed, since I didn't ask for mayonnaise and for my burger to be rare. It was so rare that... more
I mistakenly thought that this restaurant would have a full-fledged barbecue menu. Instead, the fare is extremely limited, though relatively inexpensive. Now, about the Dead Parrot Wings...they're touted as hot and spicy, and I was given ample warning before I ordered them. But, they are truly inedible. I finished three wings before I thought I might get sick. I asked... more
OOPS!! The previous review was meant for the OTHER Lazy Flamingo, on Captiva!!! We also dined here and this is by far better. The kids loved it, yes it was noisy, but the service was good and it was a good place to watch the game. The grouper and fries were good, Did not try the crabcakes or chowder here.... more
We have been to the Lazy on many occasions, and always loved their food, service and reasonable prices. But the last few times we've seen the food quality deminish.

All round, managers, bartenders, waitresses, all working together… the tips are pooled. I had conch salad (large bowl 5.95), and fried oysters with fries and slaw (huge portion and perfectly... more
We ate at the lazy flamingo in sanibel on nov 1. We ordered the grouper. It was terrible. As our server never asked how it was, we did not say anything, nor did we eat it. Very dissappointed!! more
Another of my favourite eateries on Sanibel the Flamingo does not pretend to be anything other than a sports bar. Having said that the food is pretty darned good and their seasoned fries are to die for. I was there 19 Sept and even though many places were either closed or very quiet the Flamingo 2 was bustling. Very attentive... more
Very kid friendly. The staff was very nice and our meal came quickly and was very good. The prices were reasonable. more
We thought the food was just average here. The atmosphere is more like a bar than a restaurant. If you are looking for a real casual spot to sip on a beer, then you would be comfortable there. more
