Lazy Flamingo – Seafood
This sun-drenched coastal haunt invites guests to kick back and embrace the salt-air breeze while diving into platters of briny, ice-cold oysters and mounds of seasoned peel-and-eat shrimp. The air hums with the casual energy of a quintessential Florida hangout, where the crunch of golden conch fritters and the fiery sting of "Dead Parrot" wings are best enjoyed with cold drinks and a relaxed, hands-on approach to seaside dining.
