Lindo lugar frente al mar Menú corto pero con buenas opciones de mariscos y pescados Pedimos vino blanco y llegó caliente , buena atención , lugar algo ruidoso pero una vista y location increíble

Seabass was overcooked and dry. Mashed potatoes were lukewarm at best. Seats were extremely uncomfortable wooden seats.

It was great! Thr food was ok but the drinks were delicious. 2 weddings were going on and it looked like the staff made a gorgeous wedding for both

We had been to Sol by the Sea about 4 years ago, and liked it very much. This visit we were a little underwhelmed. We felt the food was not as described; for example, the mojo fritter appetizer had barely a trace of pork in it. It was, however, a tasty rice and black bean fritter. We shared the key's caesar salad. The best part was that they kindly split it on two plates; the salad itself was good, nothing too memorable. My husband had the entree special which was a grilled pineapple slice over coconut rice with a curry sauce and a tandoori "aioli" topping. He added the grilled shrimp at the recommendation of the manager (we believe her to be the manager, as she came over to help us with any questions due to the fact that our waitress was struggling finding "the words" to describe the dish). My husband said the shrimp were an excellent addition, he would have liked more spice to the dish as a whole. I ordered the grilled local mahi mahi, and (thank god) I was pleasantly surprised with the dish. I thought the mahi mahi was cooked superbly and the guava glaze was good. The mashed potatoes were very good! Considering this restaurant was voted #1 restaurant in Key Largo on TripAdvisor our expectations were not met. However, we will consider visiting again in the future after first examining the menu for changes and checking current reviews online.

We went to this restaurant for lunch, but the experience was absolutely unacceptable. When we arrived around 2:00 PM on Christmas Eve, the doorman at the entrance told us that we needed a reservation to get in. That alone was already disappointing, but what happened next was shocking. He forced us to write a positive Google review on the spot, saying that otherwise he would not let us enter the restaurant. This behavior was completely unprofessional, unethical, and extremely uncomfortable. Being pressured to leave a fake review just to get access is unacceptable, especially on Christmas Eve, when people expect kindness and basic respect. This left us feeling angry and disrespected.

great view and friendly service but the food wasn’t good at all. i ordered a lobster salad and, unfortunately, it was pretty bad
I visited this restaurant because of the many positive reviews on Google, but the actual experience was completely the opposite. The bill was over 100 USD for a fish dish that was full of bones and extremely salty it was impossible to eat, and I ended up picking out the meat to feed a stray cat nearby. I also ordered some chicken wings to take away, but when I opened the box, they were burnt black with a strong smell of old oil my child couldn’t eat them at all. I’m not sure whether it was due to poor cooking or oil that hadn’t been changed for a long time, but the quality was unacceptable.
I strongly advise people to think carefully before ordering similar dishes to avoid wasting money. Additionally, the staff barely provided any service. They only brought out the food, yet the restaurant still added a 20% service charge to the bill without informing customers.
A very disappointing experience.

Great experience and lovely location over looking the water. Service was excellent and food was great. Portions are large! Scored slightly lower on value as still expensive.

Lobster roll could be described as “lobster salad roll on hotdog bun” not entirely delicious. Great view of the ocean. The service was slow but enjoyable when we got a moment to converse. Maybe that’s island time
