Sand Bar and Island Grill

Hidden gem. Great views. Friendly staff and great quality food. Most places lower the quality to keep prices low but this place doesn't. Fun and relaxed.

Great experience. Hidden gem. The closest thing to a Florida beach bar, we've found in the area. Feels like a gulf coast grouper shack! Great environment. We both had Grouper sandwiches, double blackened, fantastic! The mixed drink list good too. Visit at sunset, watch the sun set across the lake.

This place is all around AWESOME! All the staff is quick and kind. Food was delicious and the oysters are HUGE! They even have the cutest little treasure chest for kids to pick a toy from!

Always great food and can not beat the atmosphere! Makes you feel like you’re living the Florida life up north! Love the Sand Bar!

What a fun seafood restaurant this is. Bright colors, right on the lake, boats going by the windows. We were there in September and still a lively crowd during the lunch hour. Lots of parking available in two lots.
The food is mostly seafood, if you like oysters this is your place. We all had something different and it all was excellent.

The BLT Scallop Tacos were AMAZING! The Seared Ahi Tuna melted in our mouths! And such a fun island vibe! So much We want to still try on this menu, we WILL be back!

Good food, awesome atmosphere. We had dinner for a mini special occasion and our bartender, Jessica, was great! Highly recommend stopping in!

The lobster roll was amazing! I can't wait to go back. There are so many items on the menu that I can't wait to try.

Beautiful view and great service. Found this place after my buddy ran the Spartan Race in Richmond. There was 8 of us in the party. We ordered mussels for appetizers and I had the lobster mac & cheese for my main dish. Both delicious. Very friendly staff and the owner stopped by several times to check on us.

Every seat is a great view of the lake. Will most definitely be back.

Had the lobster roll, It was ok, but my bf Mahi tacos were great! The Long Island Iced Tea was amazing and totally creeps up on you. Really cute place, chill atmosphere and the staff was so friendly. Will definitely go back once it gets warmer

Good food, reasonable prices. $2 Vodka drinks tonight 🤪. You feel like you're in the islands 🏝. Fast service at bar.

Always love this place. Good food, fun music, nice people.

A cozy little spot on the lake with great food and really good service. If it's your first time you have to try their fresh oysters and their alligator bites! Pictured are the sampler sliders...so good! They even have a little treasure chest for the little ones to grab a toy or coloring book out of, my kids are always looking forward to picking something out.

Super cool place, loved the food and atmosphere. Small place and not the greatest parking though so if you have someone in a wheelchair it may be convenient for your party. We also did not see any outdoor seating available as in the picture. Would have been nice to eat outside as it was a beautiful day.

Cute little bar & restaurant. Fun, colorful Florida beach vibe decor. Lakeside on Elizabeth Lake. Docks right behind, so you can also access by boat.

A couple of unique menu items. Nice drink selection with interesting cocktails. Reasonable prices.
Super friendly and helpful staff.
Appropriate for families with kids as well.
It was packed when we were there (June Sunday 2pm), so maybe consider a reservation or just know you might have to wait for a table.

I had their Tiki summer salad, which was different and very good. My date had the lobster roll. He liked it.
Our other friends tried the burgers, and they enjoyed them as well.

The owner (I assume) or manager was there when we were. He was welcoming and friendly and was checking on all the diners, making sure everyone was happy.

I only wish they had an outdoor patio. But it's right next to a public launch. There's a lot of traffic and people trying to put in boats. (It looked like some of them for the first time 🙂), so it's probably safer to keep people inside.

Overall, it was a great experience. We will be back.

wow what a great little cozy place out in the middle of nowhere well I shouldn't say that but it's very nice good service great prices and just a lot of fun ... Oh and food is awesome!

Awesome smoked fish appetizer - great views and awesome service! Such a taste of summer!

This place is a hidden gem! I have brought several friends from the Chicagoland area and they rave about this place! The tiki bar theme is perfect for days out on the lake enjoying some sunshine! And the food is amaZing! The lobster roll is the absolute *best*! I only wish they'd bring back the flash fried lobster bites! (Those were amazing!) Either way, I will be back! 5 stars all the way....

Stopped in for a drink and an appetizer, Brittany was great and very attentive.

We have been here several times. I love their fish sliders! I also love that they have handicapped parking! I love that I can make reservations! I love the cheerful waitresses! This place is so cute…the island decor makes me feel like we are on vacation. The view of the lake at sunset is gorgeous. Truly a favorite spot for so many reasons! I wish Krabby J’s in Antioch could take lessons from this hopping place. Without reservations, there are long waits, but even then, it is worth it. You can get drinks and appetizers while you wait! Keep up the great work!
