Remarkable dinner experience. Charming 70’s style building nestled between a small hotel and marina. The marquis sign is not prominent so drive slowly or you may pass by. As soon as you walk in you’ll know this place is unlike many others in A1A.

Exclusive dinning experience outside of Key West. On June 9, 2023 we celebrated our Anniversary dinner here. 630pm reservation. Two very delicious quality dinners with drinks is reasonably priced. Atmosphere was great and the bar was packed. We would definitely go back to try other food options .

Deserving of more than five stars. Have you ever been to a restaurant that you could not believe it took you so long to visit? This was that place for us. Now we are drooling when we think about going again before we leave the keys.

We walked in on a Friday evening and didn’t realize they closed at 9 pm. The chef greeted us at the door, and we apologized for coming in after they closed. He said, “We would happily serve you,” and seated us at a table. The place was still busy with large parties. We started with an app and received a sample of the potato leek soup…it was fabulous. We shared the mushroom ravioli and the whole fried red snapper (Thai style), and it was amazing!!!!! I can’t wait to go back! Great atmosphere, a great menu, and a bar menu.

I alway enjoy the ambiance, very helpful and attentive staff and the FOOD! My guests were spared from the posted photo but LOOK AT THAT Snapper dinner- I rate it 4.5 star cause there is a high price to pay for this loveliness….

We have driven past so many times and always wonder if this odd little property circa 1970 is even open. It always makes me think of the Brady Bunch in Hawaii episodes. I read on one of the Keys FB pages that there was a fantastic new restaurant inside. We made reservations and arrived a little early but were seated right away. We were shocked at the interior of the restaurant as it is very well done. Don’t let the 70’s exterior fool you! We asked about the tiki bar out back and were told it was part of the lodge and no longer used. What a shame, this entire property could be so amazing. We were seated with a view of the water and the sunset. Our server Jessica was phenomenal and explained everything on the menu to us. We were very excited to see they had a grouper flight and started with that, and a french martini. The grouper flight was 4 pieces of red, black, yellow, and snowy grouper. Each one tasted different, it was a heavenly grouper experience. The red grouper tasted light and sweet, the black was a little more firm with a stronger taste than the red. The yellow and the snowy were delicate and buttery. I really couldn’t pick a favorite. It’s like comparing Maine Lobster to Florida Lobster, it’s all my favorite! The chef sent us little cups of potato leek soup which was so creamy and delicious. We both ordered the Crab Stuffed Grouper for our dinner. You can never have too much grouper! And wow, was it mind-blowingly awesome! My mouth is watering as I write this review. We ate every bit of it while watching the sunset, and walked away from this meal saying that was incredible. We never made it to dessert but we will definitely be back for sure!

Was a great night and kudos to the staff. Had a group of 12 and everything was great. The chef came out to the table so we could thank the kitchen staff. Highly recommended.
