It has been a long while since I went to an Applebee's, but went along with friends after attending…read morean annual festival in the area. At the time we got there was late at night. On this visit, we spent more time chatting than eating, because we were all full at the time. However, I did get a chance to taste their Chocolate Mousse Dessert Shooter. It had decadent Oreo cookie pieces, chocolate mousse, hot fudge and whipped cream ($2.29). If you like mousse it is great for you, but don't expect cake at the bottom, as I did because at the time I ordered I did not fully read the description. It was very creamy and rich and so I only ate half, which is not a whole lot considering it is in a shooter glass. Our waitress on this visit was Constance and she was very bubbly and pleasant. She told us about checking out the place on Sat and we did. So, on my second visit to this location, this time I decided to eat something, nothing big (plus we had a different waiter than the previous night). I ordered the Quesadilla Burger, topped with their signature Mexi-ranch sauce and sprinkled with crisp bacon pieces, freshly-made pico de gallo and shredded lettuce and packed into a Jack and cheddar quesadilla ($9.99). Picture ground beef in a pita bread and it came with fries. It was okay - I did not get a wow factor as I ate it. If I am in the area again, I will certainly come back, but mostly to have Constance as my waitress only.

Everything here is passable. Fine but not excellent. Service is fine. Cleanliness is fine…read more Atmosphere is fine. Food is fine. I'm not sure what happened here in the past. Maybe bad management? It used to be a busy place with a lively bar. Now, it's just kind of quiet and slow. I wish it was a little more lively... maybe it will be one day. Not sure. But as of now, it's fine. You can grab lunch there and it's... fine.

Came where with a bunch of my coworker's. My coworker who came here said the food was good. For me…read moreit was ok, not bad. I had their soup it was slightly salty that day. We ordered their crab cakes and crab stuffed mushrooms. My coworker and I shared onion rings and crab fries. I can tell you that was the only time I had crab. I was crabbed out by the end of this meal. Servers were chill. We came before closing and they welcomed us in. They have a nice view of the water during the day. This place was walking distance from where we stayed. Unless you're from there and you've been here before it's at the end of the road to the left by the ocean. I would come back and try other things in their menu.

I was in town for a week and this place was recommended as a great restaurant for seafood and a…read moregood view of the water. I decided to try it out and will say the view is great but the food itself was lacking. Firstly, I'll talk about the place. It's an easy drive to get too, but it's a bit secluded since you have to get to the water. It has a small parking lot, but shouldn't be a problem. The place is relatively clean and well spaced out. The servers are very nice. They ask if you want to sit inside or outside in case you want a better view of the water. The food is what I was looking forward to. The table ordered the crab dip as an appetizer. It came with crackers and bread and was pretty good. But the dip was mostly filler and I didn't feel like it had enough crab in it. I ordered the Basket and had 2 crab cakes and 3 fried shrimp. The shimp was well seasoned. However, they fry it with the shell on. This means you'll be spitting out shrimp shell as you bite into it. The crab cakes were actually delicious - very flavorful and filling. We also ordered rockfish for the table. I understand it's a white fish, so when it would fall apart in my mouth I knew it was way overcooked in the fryer. Each piece would desintegrate in my mouth and only leave behind a clump of soggy batter. Overall, I don't think the food is good. If all you want to order is crab cake then this place is golden. Otherwise, maybe only come to see the nice view of the water and the bridge.

Crab cakes are delicious. Nice bar outside with view of water and good selection of beerread more

This was my first time visiting Solomons Island, and I'm so glad I chose The Lighthouse Restaurant!…read moreI was looking for fresh seafood with a nice waterfront view, and this restaurant did not disappoint. There is parking conveniently located near the restaurant, so you don't have to worry about finding street parking. The restaurant was very clean and offered indoor and outdoor seating, along with an indoor bar area. There is also an ATM on-site. I looked at the menu ahead of time and already knew I wanted the Ultimate Seafood Platter, mainly because it included a crab cake. We also ordered oysters as an appetizer, and they were absolutely delicious and incredibly fresh. Hands down, this was some of the best seafood I've had from a restaurant in a long time. The scallops were plump and juicy, and the fish portion was very generous. I'm usually nervous when a crab cake is included as part of a platter because I expect something small or previously frozen.That was definitely not the case here. The crab cake was a great size and tasted fresh. They offer a traditional version and an "angry" version. I ordered the angry crab cake, and it was seasoned to perfection. The other person with me ordered the seafood pasta, and it was just as impressive. The Alfredo sauce was delicious, with plump scallops, juicy shrimp, and a generous portion of pasta. It also came with amazing rustic, buttery toasted bread. The waitstaff was great, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the waterfront view made the experience even better. If you're looking for fresh, delicious seafood with a beautiful view in Solomons Island, I highly, highly recommend The Lighthouse Restaurant!
