Restaurants near Sandcastle Resort at Lido Beach

Hosted a wonderful birthday luncheon with friends. We took advantage of the all day happy hour and all enjoyed a glass of wine with lunch. Birthday dessert was yummy! Connor’s is always great.

The Columbia restaurant is always a winner! We had a fabulous meal and Jack was an exceptional waiter. We love the food, the atmosphere and the value. My husband always starts with the exceptional black bean soup, I had the empanadas yum! We both had Grouper. Rounded out our meal with key lime pie ( a generous slice) and the tres amigos churros, delicious 😋 we highly recommend and we will be back!

Incredible dinner! Grouper bites and Category 5 shrimp appetizers were as good as it gets. The delicious fishcamp chowder is almost a meal in itself. Finally, the lobster tacos also were great. I apologize f this sounds like I own the place. My wife and I are three times a year customers who simply love this place.

We’re spending two months on Lido Key and feel so fortunate to have discovered Blu Kouzina early on! We stumbled upon the restaurant while walking by during the day and were immediately drawn to the charming outdoor seating area. Due to the chilly weather, we decided to dine inside, and the warm, inviting atmosphere instantly made us feel at home. We made a reservation for a Tuesday evening, not really thinking it would be necessary, but we’re so glad we did! When we arrived, the restaurant was buzzing with energy and at full capacity, but we were quickly and graciously seated. From the moment we walked in, we felt genuinely welcomed by the entire staff. Our server was exceptional—despite being busy, she never rushed us and made us feel like we had all the time in the world to enjoy our meal. She provided great recommendations, and we were thrilled with our choices. I had the grilled calamari platter, which was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. My husband opted for the lamb wrap with fries, and he absolutely loved it. We didn’t have room for an appetizer or salad this time, but we’re already planning to come back soon to try those as well. Blu Kouzina is definitely on our list for repeat visits! Cheers!

Service was exceptional - attentive, quick, friendly, and made certain all was well. We had to wait about five minutes longer than our reservation, no big deal considering how busy they were. Regardless, they brought over two glasses of champagne to apologize for the minor wait was really a surprise and not needed or expected. We ordered a few sushi rolls and they were delicious with the exception of one. We didn’t really care for it--our server notice we weren’t eating that one and asked if we liked it we said not our favorite. He took it away and brought back shrimp cocktail to teplace that dish... again not needed, very surprised and impressed! They certainly went above and beyond to make certain we had a great evening. The ambience there is a really nice, however, the noise level is pretty high. Next time, weather permitting, we will try to sit outside on one of the patios... overall, an excellent experience very impressed. Delicious food, great service. PS Get the carrot cake.
