We asked if they had live seafood before heading out to the business. We chose to try them out…read moresince they had good reviews and the photos looked good. We were welcomed upon entrance and given kind, respectful answers to my many questions regarding their seafood. It did smell like live seafood when we walked in. I don't mind the smell due to being raised by seafood foodie parents who eat live fresh seafood weekly. We ordered a crawfish and shrimp combo for $14. We also ordered a crawfish and muzzle combo for my brother. And in addition, we wanted to try the light blue crabs for $20, which was four total blue crabs. These prices included cleaning & cooking the seafood for us. That saves us time and cleaning at home. We brought it home to eat with steamed rice and dipped the seafood in lemon pepper, cocktail sauce, and lime juice. The blue crabs were fresh and full of meat. I would skip the crawfish, mussels, and shrimp for my next seafood feast. The seasonings were perfect.

I wanted a blackened fish sandwich for dinner on a Friday. I attempted Lighthouse in Lake Mary, but…read moreI have never seen it so crowded before. I had The Current bookmarked in Sanford and with it being only fifteen minutes away it was easy to get there. As I approached, I thought, "That's where it is?" I have passed the place many times but never knew it was there! It is a couter service place. Which mostly means a quick in and out. Plenty of seating inside and even some outside. I ordered my Blacken mahi sandwich with Old Bay fries and waited at a table for it to arrive. When it did, all I can say is, wow! Might of been the best blackened fish sandwich I have ever had, wow! The fries could have had a little more seaoning on them, but I was here for the fish and it ruled. Also, for a counter service place I had probably as many "how are you doing" checkins as I would have had with a table service place.

Decided to stop here while traveling from Orlando to Daytona Beach. The time is around 2pm on a…read moreMonday and we were the only ones in the restaurant. We didn't let that deter us one bit! The service was friendly and informative. If you're a newbie like me, you'll need to order at the counter first, then take a seat at one of the communal tables. They also have outdoor seating as well as a bar. I ordered fried okra and fried shrimp. Everything was hot and freshly prepared. It's been years since I've had fried okra and this side dish did not disappoint! Hubby ordered the fried grouper sandwich and fries. Everything tasty! The food arrived quickly. I'm not 100% positive, but the food seemed to be made from scratch, i.e no pre-frozen items. We enjoyed our meal and can't wait to return. Parking is curbside.

One of my favorite things about St. Johns River Steak & Seafood is that you're not just going there…read morefor dinner -- the location makes the whole experience. Sitting right on Lake Monroe with that view of the water, especially around sunset, is hard to beat in Sanford. The food is excellent too. They have a huge selection, so whether you're in the mood for seafood or a steak, there's something for everybody. The seafood always seems fresh, the portions are generous, and they don't skimp on the good stuff. The blackened fish with shrimp and crab risotto is a standout, and you hear people constantly talking about the grouper, shrimp and grits, conch fritters, gator bites and seafood combinations. Their steaks are also legitimately good, so you don't feel like you have to order seafood just because it's on the water. The atmosphere is probably what keeps me coming back. It's casual enough that you can bring the family, but the view makes it nice enough for a date night or special occasion. There's just something relaxing about eating dinner and looking out over the lake. Service has always been another big positive. The staff is friendly and attentive without hovering over you, and even when the restaurant is busy, they do a good job taking care of everyone. That seems to be something a lot of other people mention in their reviews as well. Good food, cold drinks, great service and one of the best restaurant views in Sanford. If somebody was visiting town and asked me where they could get some seafood and actually feel like they were in Florida, this would definitely be on my list.

This is one of my favorite seafood/steak restaurants in Sanford right on the water! Getting to the…read morerestaurant is super easy. It's a straight shot right by the water. The parking lot is spacious and they have free parking. I really like coming to this restaurant and asking to be seated by the windows. Around 4 to 6 PM on a summer night while you're eating you can look at the view and if you happen to get done early with dinner then you can walk right along the pier and even catch a nice sunset ! The food is really good too. I've been here twice and the two times that I've been here, I've gotten different meals but the waiters are really helpful with helping you decide what is best on the menu! When the waiters really know the menu and suggest items to help you narrow down your selection for me I enjoy that because I am indecisive lol. Anyways, check this place out if you're around, enjoy my pictures attached to this review the 2 separate occasions I've been here and I can't wait to come back!

The Bayou has quickly become one of the best places to eat in Sanford! It had been on our list for…read morea while and now it's our favorite! The interior is cute and fits the New Orleans vibe. The tv is playing feed from New Orleans and it's cool! The decor is very Mardi Gras centered. Our food was outstanding. The blackened shrimp appetizer was out of this world. We also enjoyed the Cajun fried rice and oyster poboy. Everything was seasoned and flavored so well. We dined on a Friday night and it wasn't busy at all. The staff members were nice, specifically our server, Jordan. The food came out fast. Make sure to give The Bayou a try! You won't regret it.

So this is going to be a mixed review. I will start with…read morethe good. The food was fantastic. We tried several things and liked them all. The drinks were strong and if I was just judging food the rating would be much higher. The vibe in here was strange. It kind of gives church food hall decorated for Mardi Gras. Our server was horrible. She kept forgetting things. At one point we asked her for a drink, she left us then started taking shots at the bar and then had to be reminded of the drink when she came back 10 min later. I liked the food so much I might go try the Lakeland location but the service in Sanford was really bad

There are a couple of stands where you get your food right away, but most will have to prepare your food and let you know when it's ready. The vibes are great here and almost cozy.

Some of the restaurants that it opened with have left which is sad, but the ones that remain are solid offerings. I really enjoy the bar at the far end with their outdoor seating. Great option if you're meeting friends for dinner with and are having a hard time deciding on what to eat. Service at the bar is good but sort of non existent for the rest of the hall. A bit disappointing as we had to clean our own table before we could sit down. Regardless it's a great edition to Sanford's already solid food scene.

I had the Caesar salad and 1501 dry rub wings with ranch. Salad had corn bread croutons which could've been good but tasted like just oiled soaked stale dense bread. Dressing came on the side, which I'm guessing was due to a misunderstanding because my cousin asked for his wing hot sauce on the side. The chicken was chewy unfortunately. The skin was crispy and rub was good but the texture ruined it and they just tasted bad and overcooked. I would opt for another dinner choice or maybe they have other food that's better.

The food hall is fun, tables and chairs high tops and stools scattered throughout and The Basin is at the end if you are looking for a drink or two. Fun atmosphere, family feel. My only caution is to being your Stanley, I get why they charge the huge prices for the water and soda but that's just crazy lol.

Lighthouse is both a full seafood market and restaurant, giving you that fresh off the boat quality seafood cooked exactly how you like and served right to your table. I had the Blackened Grouper with broccoli and parsley red potatoes. The fish was seasoned and cooked perfectly, super juicy and incredibly fresh. The sides were just as good paired with the fish perfectly. I also had a tasty little side Caesar salad. The house Caesar dressing was great, lightly dressed so it didn't drown the romaine like some places do, and finished with grated parmesan and crunchy croutons. Overall, this was a great meal. The service was great, the food was excellent, and I would highly recommend checking them out.
