Listen up, you landlubbers! SoFloDining, reporting live from the sun-kissed shores of Marathon, Florida! This time, we set sail for the legendary S.S. Wreck & Galley Grill, a place so cool, it’s practically shipwrecked in deliciousness! Located right at 58835 Overseas Hwy, this spot ain’t just a restaurant; it’s a vibe where nautical charm meets island chill. This is a must-visit for anyone looking for heavenly food and high-seas adventure.
We walked in, ready to plunder some plates, and were immediately seated to soak in the atmosphere. Doris, ever the connoisseur, kicked things off with a Moscow Mule that she declared was “perfectly balanced, and a good pour!”—a happy camper indeed. I stuck to a trusty Coca-Cola, sometimes simple is best, ya know?
But the real treasure arrived when we ordered the legendary BUFFALO SHRIMP – MILD. Now, I’m not typically a Buffalo-anything kinda guy; I was prepared for disappointment. However, these, my friends, were a game-changer! Imagine 6 plump, butterflied & hand-breaded shrimp, each one a flavor bomb tossed in a spot-on Buffalo sauce. I’m talking “Buffalo-snob-approved” good! The portion size was generous—this appetizer alone could have fed a small crew!
The decision on what to order on our next visit is what is truly important. On our next voyage, we’re definitely setting our course for Friday night’s Big Ass Prime Rib! And, because we’re greedy like pirates, we’re also eyeing up that BUFFALO CHICKEN SALAD for a lunchtime raid—it sounds like a delicious blend of Romaine, veggies, cheese, and sauced chicken breast. This ain’t just a meal; it’s an adventure!
The ultimate FOMO moment comes from delaying your visit and missing out on the Buffalo-snob-approved BUFFALO SHRIMP and, of course, that legendary Big Ass Prime Rib on Friday nights, which define this nautical goldmine.
