Great place! Delicious food, and fun energy. We stayed at the marco island hilton and it’s a close walk to the hotel. Situated off an open air court that hosts other restaurants and stores. Great energy and a busy place! Service was wonderful. The wait staff was attentive but our waiter gave us time to breathe, talk, get settled. And the same with our food- he let us enjoy our appetizer before ordering entrees. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Consistently fabulous food and great service! Jason and rest of staff were very attentive refilling waters, checking on us and bringing extra sauce when needed —all despite very large private gathering in another dining room! We never felt rushed, it was easy to chat despite full lunch crowd spread throughout rooms- Comfortable seating, good food presentations & reasonable prices- Love taking friends and family here, NEVER disappoints!

The food and service at Deep Lagoon was wonderful as always. However, Thursday nights there is a live band or DJ outside at CJ‘s next door, which contributes greatly to a loud noise level. So avoid this night if possible. We did request to be seated in the back further away from the band and that did help somewhat.

Great appetizers and main entrees. Had the charcuterie, roasted artichokes and a caprese salad. All excellent for the 5 of us. Entrees included Gnocchi, clams and pasta, carbonara, and penne puttanesca. Couple bottles of Silverado Chardonnay. Excellent food and excellent service. Have been there 4x and on Isle of Capri at least a dozen times. Never disappoints.
