“ Had a fantastic lunch at the Golden Lion Cafe last week. We ordered the Mahi BLT, Chicken Quesadilla, and Fish Tacos, and everyone loved their dishes. The Mahi BLT was huge and delicious . The service was quick, friendly, and attentive, and the laid-back beachy vibe with open-air seating rounded out the meal nickey. I can easily recommend checking this spot out. ”
“ Excellent service Impeccable food Very busy but service never slacked. Parking kinda sucked, but it’s summertime when every flicks to Florida ”
“ A local recommended the restaurant. She told us the menu was great, service was wonderful, and the view from upstairs was to die for. She was right!. I ordered the shrimp tacos that had feta cheese and spinach , it came with fries sprinkled with cheese. It was delicious. My husband ordered the daily catch which was wahoo. It was prepared nice and nice presentation. My husband said it wasn't his favorite fish. No fault of the cook my husband said it was good, but next time he would order a different fish. The view was beautiful and they had umbrellas that provided shade and protection from the short rain we had while there. It was great and I look forward to visiting again. ”
“ This is my FAVORITE beach bar and grill. Food is amazing, drinks are yummy, music is great, and the atmosphere is the best!! Everytime I visit Palm Coast, I have to come to the Golden Lion no matter what. They seem to always have live music and I love how my daughter can dance and play in the sand while I relax and enjoy a yummy drink in the sun with an ocean view. Yes please. ”
“ Amazing food and atmosphere! The ground floor is really cool with a nice layout and a great location with outdoor music. The top deck is the perfect spot if you want to relax and enjoy the ocean view. Thank you from the EXPENDABLES TEAM! ”
“ We happened upon this place and what a great find! It's right across the street from the ocean with outdoor and indoor seating, Including outdoor seating in white sugar sand! Good menu and very good food. ”
“ It was a fun meal. My wife and I stopped here when driving down A1A on a beautiful day. Our server was a gentleman who was very friendly and attentive. My wife had a Margarita which she enjoyed and the food was tasty and served promptly. It was a lot of fun to sit on the upper deck and enjoy the ocean just feet away. Can't wait to stop in next time down A1A. UPDATE: I'm back and Andy is waiting on me again. Awesome fun! ”
“ Beautiful blue skies and a visit to Flagler meant it was time to dine at the Golden Lion. We love to go upstairs, so we had a bit of a wait since it was a Saturday. It was truly a bit too long since there were empty tables. I think they need to have more kitchen help or shrink their menu. Luckily, we had time to have a drink and wait. Views of the ocean, lively music, happy and friendly people everywhere, and delicious food. Parking during busy times is a bit difficult, especially for wheelchairs. However, the restaurant itself can accommodate you, I did not use the restrooms, so I can not speak on that. ”
