What a great place to stop for a bite to eat and a drink while you walk Duval! It seems like it's always busy, but there were also always seats. My wife and I liked the Conch fritters and Mahi Mahi (I believe on the menu it's the Dolphin Fingers?) so much that we brought the kids back to try them.
The trip with the kids is the primary cause for my review. We already enjoyed the restaurant, but we brough the kids back and the place was PACKED. They got us seated right away and our server, Chris, was absolutely on top of it. We weren't there for a big meal and we know how, as a server in a tip-driven industry, small tables can sometimes be a downer on your evening. If he felt that way, Chris didn't show it in the least. He was kind, funny, and prompt. We had hoped to let the kids try the pina coladas (virgin, of course), but Chris let us know that the pina colada is already mixed well in advance, so there's nothing to do about that. He helped us find a suitable alternative and when we ordered mahi to share, the portion we received was much more generous than when only my wife and I came. I can only assume he went out of his way to make sure we all had enough.
Flying Monkeys is a delight and Chris is an exceptional member of their team. I hope they see this review so that he gets the praise he deserves. Thanks Chris and Flying Monkeys for being a special stop on our trip!
To anyone reading the review, have the mahi and a pina colada, it's the best we had on the island! Even though they seem to always be busy, the noise was never at an uncomfortable level in my experience and I could always hear everyone at my table clearly despite being a little hard of hearing.

I saw them kick customers out for no reason and caused a big scene. On top of that my food was not fully cooked and the manager was extremely rude about it. Never ever eat here!

WHEN THEY BRING YOU THE WRONG ORDER AND TURN AROUND AND CALL COPS ON YOU CLAIMING YOU ARE SCAMMING. NOT COOL AT ALL. THEN KICK YOU OUT AND TRY TO MAKE YOU PAY FOR FOOD YOU NEVER GOT. FEMALE FLOOR MANAGER WAS RUDE AS HELL.

Never go here. They ruined my dinner by calling 10 cops because a waiter got an order wrong. LOL what a joke.
Excellent staff, great choice of food, my steak was perfectly cooked exactly as I wanted, tasty frozen drinks (White Russian for mua:), couldn’t really find a con in reviewing this bar (the only thing I could speak badly of was the toilet cleanliness but the place’s pretty busy so good job anyways)

Just popped in for a drink. Great beer, fun service. Slightly scruffy but sort of what-you-see-is-what-you-get. Chris, the barman, was very friendly.

Flying Monkeys and Fogarty's is the same place. Great daiquiris. We've got the food in order to sit at Fogarty's. Delicious! Best conch fritters! Plus other dishes were terrific like the quesadilla and the burgers.
