We were really looking forward to the Tiki Bar but unfortunately it was a little underwhelming. Maybe it was because we sat at the front patio but while service was friendly, it was quite slow. There didn't seem to be an order to who got their drinks first despite ordering first. The merchandise area is picked out and unorganized. The back sandy area with the band seemed fun but I am unsure how service was. The bathroom was also incredibly yucky (wet and toilet spurted water). Tiki Bar is a Solomons staple but I would skip it next time I am there.

Just came for drinks on a holiday weekend - it was packed with a live band. There's lots of seating areas and a few bars. There is a parking lot out back but we parked on the street. They're famous for their Mai Tai so we got one of those and a Three Way - which is a mix of the Mai Tai and two other drinks. These drinks were in premade jugs, so nothing to really make, just pour - no big deal as they were only about $9. Drinks were sweet, one was plenty! The music was fun, a bit of an older crowd but a good vibe on a nice night. Didn't stay for food because it was so loud but definitely work checking out for drinks if you're on the island!

It's a tiki bar! Great location and vibe. Food was just ok, definitely bar food. For a drink by the water, good choice. I would eat somewhere else next time, then come here for drinks.

Great vibe in the evenings with ample space. For outdoorand overheadseating. People are friendly and engaging. The crab and shrimp egg rolls were stuffed and tasty. The fried shrimp are large with a crisp batter. My favorite drink was the orange Creamsicle crush. The watermelon and strawberry crushes were also tasty.

Stopped in at 11:30am for drinks! It's summer so the walls were up and fans going. Nice spot!

After mass at Our Lady Star of the Sea, we decided to stay on Solomons Island for lunch. My wife said some of her co-workers liked the Tiki Bar/Tiki Grill, so we decided to have lunch. I ordered the blackened shrimp tacos, my wife had the crab dip. Both were very good. I also had a Hazy Little Thing while my wife had a Twisted Tea. Had a pretty good selection for beers, both on tap and in cans. The decor definitely fit the Tiki/South Pacific theme. There was a whole village behind the bar/grill, with lots of umbrella-covered tables on beach sand. Part of the bar used to be a small motel as well, some of the doors still have room numbers on them. Overall a nice place to eat... the only negative was I had asked for a salad as the side to my tacos, but they gave me fries. Otherwise, it was an A+ experience and we'll definitely come back again.

We - I and our sailing crew- arrived by bicycle from nearby Zahnisers Marina, and made use of their convenient bicycle racks. Unfortunately. When we arrived all of the shops in the complex were closed. But we found a nice table to eat under the roof, but open to the outside. We were able to enjoy the colors of the sunset sky during dinner. Theirs is the best Chesapeake hot crab dip we found all summer. My fish tacos and house salad were also perfect. And, the drinks were appropriately tropical! It was a nice evening, and a unique venue.

That server was great too bad she wasn't our server.

My friend brought me here as we were driving to DC. He grew up in the area. This spot is so cool. Came for opening week. Service was weird our server barely came to us the other server was on her A game but we got someone who came maybe one extra time after taking our order. Honestly all I can remember is this lady bringing the check to me two times. IF THERE IS A MAN AT THE TABLE... you NEVER bring the check to the women... food was ok. Drinks were good. The young runner was great.. he was helpful. Our waitress just seemed lazy

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!

They roast their own coffee! Wow! Yum!…read more On a weekend morning (Jun 2026), we were in the vicinity of Solomons MD, and friends said that Bugeye Grill roasts their own coffee. That got our attention! We stopped in at this bright clean restaurant on a late weekend morning, (weekdays they open at 5pm). The French-press coffee was a tasty fragrant medium Brazilian blend. The flavor was well balanced, and it was a good smooth non-acidic coffee We found it to be a creamier fragrant brew, not a darker roasty flavor. It had a lightly malty sweetness and nuttiness, characteristic of its blend of Brazilian arabica, robusta, and hybrid beans. They have different blends from time to time. They really are a full-menu restaurant terrific views of Back Creek, and a midscale-classy vibe. They focus on seafood and steaks and lobster! We saw sandwiches around $20. This time, we came for the coffee. It was luscious!

First timers on Solomon and at Bugeye Grill. I will admit that we stopped by this restaurant…read morebecause it was one of the first ones that had outdoor seating (we were visiting with a dog). The restaurant had a nice variety of dishes and specialty cocktails...I think that I was more interested in the latter. ;) Since I have not visited Solomons, MD before, I cannot comment if the prices are comparable to other places in the area. However, most of the entrees were in the $25 and up range. I thought my fish and chips (I forget the actual name of the dish) were fine, and my spouse really enjoyed the crab cake sandwich. Although I thought the portion sizes for the sandwiches and fries were fine, the serving size of the mussels seemed a bit small. However, this could have been an optical illusion because the serving bowl for the mussels was HUGE, so the amount of mussels could have appeared to be smaller than what it was. I thought the outdoor patio was great especially with a view of the water and folks going about their business. However, some may not like the setup because you are right on the main street, which can be a bit noisy especially if a lot of bikers are cruising up and down the strip. Parking was a bit of a struggle (not the fault of the restaurant). During our visit, all of the public parking lots were full. However, we visited on Mother's Day weekend so maybe there were more folks (including us ) in the area than normal. I'll admit that since this was my first time visiting the area that I'm not too familiar about the ebb and flow of parking. Overall, our server (who reminded me a bit of a young Jodie Foster) was amazing. One thing that I really appreciated was her telling us about a potential delay for the food due to a large party. Although no one wants to hear that after ordering food, I think it's nice and considerate when a server provides a heads-up so diners can adjust accordingly.

So we're getting ready to leave and only then realize there's also a basement door. If you come from downhill, you don't pass the basement door first so you don't see it. They should have a sign upstairs indicating entrance is downstairs. They offer guests public wifi? I'm sorry I don't know a single restaurant in DC that does this, every single one has a password. Public wifi isn't safe. I've been here twice now, first time they were out of the Dirty Banana. Second visit I sat at the bar and ordered it but they don't make it in front of you, it's made off in the back kitchen even though they have a blender on the counter and wall of liquor. It's a frozen drink made with Jamaican run, kahlua, baileys, banana puree, and dole soft serve vanilla. Took me an hour to drink it, it was so strong! Sitting at the basement bar somehow smells like a toilet even though it's at the back of the bar. The front door is open to the street so it's not cool from a/c in the middle of the bar. By 10:30pm music is cranked up. Bill has 20% tip auto included.

It turns out we had been here before, and I'd completely forgotten the experience until we arrived…read morelast Thursday around 7 or 8 o'clock. The parking lot is small, and there is a pothole in the alley near the parking lot entrance that will bottom out an SUV. Apparently, there is additional parking, but we didn't see it in the dark. The restaurant is cozy, Hawaiian-themed, and clean. We were seated within moments of entering the host's periphery, and received menus and ice water within minutes. I had the poke bowl last time, and I remember it being chilled and gently flavored. The avocado and spicy mayo did a lot of the heavy lifting. It was filling and very healthy. My partner enjoyed the Ipanema Sandwich last time we visited. This time around we snacked on the fried halloumi (fried cheese and mint yogurt dip) and Lumpia, taquito-type beef rolls, with sweet and sour dip. We absolutely demolished the coconut cream pie for dessert. The pie was so delicate and lovely that even my partner enjoyed it, a typical coconut detractor. I recommend Little Nickel to anyone looking to try something unique and ambitious that veers from the well-trodden culinary path. The staff here were courteous and helpful, the restaurant was clean, and the food was firing on all cylinders.
