The fish was fresh and delicious, served with fries and cole slaw. The waitress Jenny was incredible very attentive. Everything was so good that we went again although we were staying in Florida City the ride was worth it. Second time I had the square grouper again and my husband had the shrimp platter. Yummy!!! The shortbread cookies for dessert hit the spot It is great to see a restaurant that has it all -- great food, great service and great ambiance YUMMY!!!!!!!!

We were really looking forward to trying this restaurant, but unfortunately our experience was…read moredisappointing from start to finish. The online waitlist initially estimated a 60-75 minute wait, not an issue, had a cocktail upstairs and really wnjoyed ourselves. When we checked in, we were told we were next eventhough thebonline portal told us to come. After waiting another 15 minutes, we were told our table was just being cleaned and to wait where we were. A few minutes later, another employee told us we had to move because a different party was holding the door open, so we ended up standing behind the bar with our backs against the wall. It just felt awkward and disorganized. When we were finally seated in the back room, we thought it would be nice since it was quieter, but it was extremely hot. I'm usually the person who is always cold, yet I was sweating through dinner. Service also left a lot to be desired. The food runner handed our hot dinner plates directly to us instead of placing them on the table. I was sitting at the opposite end of the table from him, so I had to reach out and take a hot plate. I even asked if it was hot, and he still practically dropped it into my hands. I had burned my fingers earlier that day, so it hurt!!.. but it was that or drop my pasta!? Our server also repeatedly reached across guests' faces to clear plates instead of walking around the table. At one point my sister didn't even realize she was there until an arm reached in front of her, which was awkward. To make matters worse, two of our dinners arrived about seven minutes before the remaining meals, so part of our table was left waiting while the others' food got cold. We asked for grated Parmesan for our two PASTA dishes. No one mentioned there would be a charge. It took another six minutes to arrive, and when the bill came we discovered we had been charged $2 per serving. We asked for two servings, but three were brought to the table--and we were charged for all three. Six minutes may not sound like much, but after already waiting for the rest of the meals, another delay while watching our server take new tables' orders instead of bringing the cheese felt frustrating. To end on a positive note, three of the meals were good. My mother-in-law really enjoyed the grilled wahoo, my husband liked the BBQ mac and cheese, and my sister liked the fried artichoke. Overall, it wasn't one major issue--it was a series of small service problems that added up and made for a disappointing experience. We hope this feedback helps improve the experience for future guests.

The Caesar salad has no business being as good as it is. I order it constantly. And the ribs?? Fantastic. Messy, delicious, absolutely worth looking like a feral raccoon for a few minutes.

Come for the live music, stay for the food and drinks, and seriously... get the ribs. Just maybe grab some extra napkins.

We had cocktails that were beautifully crafted. To start there was an amuse bouche of a smooth creamy bisque. Followed by duck wings and crispy fish collars! Yes I came back to them for a 2nd look. For awhile I kept seeing a special offering on the menu. When I would call to inquire, it was no longer available. Well, guess what was on the men? The Kan Kan Chop!!! Let me tell you. This beautifully sculpted cut of pork includes the rib, the chop and the belly!!!! 2 people carried it out on a board! I admired it in amazement. They asked if I was sharing it? Uh, no. Accompanied by super soft bao buns, Jasmine rice and hoisin it was worth the wait. Chloe was excellent at helping to select items to make for a wonderful dining experience!

The servers were plentiful and our server checked on us multiple times. However, many people received their food before us although they came in after us. This didn't go unnoticed by our waiter, who told us our fried calamari appetizer would not be charged to us. I wish the food was better. The fried calamari was overcooked and rubbery. I had the muscles and they were gritty and the sauce was too thick. My lunch partner had the daily special which was chicken and shrimp fajitas. He was disappointed in the fajita toppings, which lacked flavor. However, the shrimp and the chicken were well cooked and tasty. Loved the atmosphere, but the food was lackluster.

I'm not a picky eater by any means, but the food was extremely underwhelming. I ordered the burger, and it had almost no flavor. My wife ordered the Philly cheesesteak, and it was topped with what tasted like individually wrapped processed cheese, which really took away from the sandwich. Our soft drinks were flat and served in very small plastic cups. For about $70 for two entrées and an appetizer, we expected much better quality. The outdoor seating was covered with picnic tables, which was a nice break from the Florida sun and probably the most comfortable part of the meal. The atmosphere, however, wasn't what we expected. The staff spent much of the time sitting at a nearby table using profanity, and we never felt particularly welcome. As visitors, we got the impression that locals were the priority and tourists were just passing through. The one bright spot was the property itself. Seeing the Key deer and colorful chameleons wandering around made for some great photos and was honestly the highlight of our visit. Maybe this is a better stop if you're looking for a place to grab a drink and enjoy the atmosphere, but based on our experience, we wouldn't come back for the food.
