My husband and I travel to the West Coast often to see friends and we ALWAYS go to the Lock 'n Key! The food is wonderful, the prices are very reasonable and it is the most enjoyable place in the world to watch the sunset! The best part about the experience is the FABULOUS STAFF!! We are always treated like... more

I have lived in Englewood for 20 years and visit this place often. They have great music on the weekends and honestly have never had a bad meal! more

I would never recommend this restaurant. One evening around 8:00 p.m. we were starved and stopped in for a meal. After being seated and given menus. The staff continued to ignore us. Keep in mind, they weren't to busy at this hour. We left and the staff didn't even inquire why. When we exited the parking lot we drove by... more

The only decent thing about this restaurant is that it is across the street from the beach. It started at the appetizer of crab/advocado salad which consisted of a few pieces of crab meat on wilted lettuce pieces of advocado & cocktail sauce. It appeared that a child had put this together. No flavor not seasoned strike 1. When our... more

We found the Lock n Key while at the beach across the road. The serving staff were good, as was the food and atmosphere. Don't expect anything too posh - It's a seaside grill, but it's a taste of unspoiled Florida that I'd recommend. more

What could possibly top the priceless sunset over the gulf but an outside table and some cool drinks. The live entertainment was wonderful and the menu selections we made that evening were tops. Can't wait to go back. Add a star if you love homemade desserts! more

Happened upon this wonderful place while watching the most amazing sunset across the street on the gulf. The warm, friendly atmosphere was inviting. The live music in the background coupled with a cool breeze and the best pomegranite martini EVER was only the harbinger of what was to come. The shrimp salad was huge and very sweet and tender. My... more

We had lunch there July 22nd, then again today, August 1st. Sometime between those dates, the menu underwent a complete change; both were very good, though. I loved my huge and crunchy fried oysters, while my husband first enjoyed his fish sandwich, and then today, his shrimp salad wrap. One of my sons loved the burgers, while my other son... more

My family recently vacationed in the Englewood, Venice Beach and Siesta Key area. During our stay in Englewood, we visited this restaurant after seeing above average reviews online. Our experience of this restaurant was terrible. I have worked in restaurants for 10+ years and honestly felt as though this was one of the worst experiences ever. The owner would not... more
