The food was good for an island restaurant. The tuna was fresh, the escargot was not the best I've had, and the frutti di mare was pretty solid.

Have been wanting to stop in for years, finally did. Boy, are we glad we did! Brian the GM and Ben the bartender were fantastic. The food was absolutely amazing!! The best grouper I have had! We met the Chef as we were leaving and he was very gracious and appreciative of our praise. Do yourself a favor…stop in …sit at the bar. While they have AC inside, it’s better if you sit at the bar. The place may look closed…but it’s not. STOP IN!!

"Chef Rolf" should be embarrased. The staff was very welcoming, but if you know anything about food or have taste buds, this place is.not for you. I did not have high hopes when the bread service consisted of store bought rolls and butter balls. Had to send my Titos and soda back because it tasted flat and tainted. My linguini with "clams and crab" was like if someone served linguine noodles in it's own, unsalted, pasta water with 6 sandy little clams and an undetectable amount of crab. Absolutely zero effort, zero flavor on the food. There are any number of places to choose from for the same, or lower, price point. Pick somewhere else to spend your hard-earned dollars.

The dishes are unique and so different. We tried the beef filet, the lobster bisque and the highly recommended Ahi Tuna Nachos....best ever. And we brought fish we caught and it was prepared 2 different ways....sautéed and lightly battered. Everything was so amazing and outstanding.....Michael and his staff are the best and can't do enough for you ❤️
We love having this place in our backyard! The food is outstanding. The servers are great as is the live music. I give it 4.5 stars...a few things I'd recommend to make it 5 stars:1 - espresso machine has been broken for weeks. I'd buy at least one espresso martini a visit if it was up and running!2 - my girlfriend and I ordered the same glass of wine and they came in different sized glasses...felt like one of us wasn't getting our money's worth3 - expand the wine list ?

We stopped in here when we found out that the restaurant we wanted to go was closed on Mondays. We are so glad we did because we now have a new favorite place to eat in Islamorada! We had the ribeye steak that was maybe better than the one we had at Ziggie’s if you can believe it, and Asian tuna which was so delicious. They have an outdoor tiki dining area and friendly bar staff (Justin is great). We will be back!

Delicious food. Well-crafted cocktails. Friendly staff. Cozy dining areas. What else do you need? I had the fresh/local grouper - blackened. Exquisite. Some commenters say the portions are too small. I disagree, but then, I am not one who eats typical American portions which are to me terribly oversized. Relax go slow and savor the flavor! Also, the tuna appetizer was greatly enjoyed and is large enough to be shared.

I really wanted to like this place, but the fact that there were no cars in the parking lot on a Friday night should have been a warning. We got the Moscow oysters which if they hadn’t drown them in cream sauce may have been really good. Ordered the grouper seared and received 3 small strips that were over cooked and were chewy. Couldn’t even eat it. The 2 carrots with it were not cooked and crunchy. As soon as they brought our dinner we were attacked by flies and not just small ones..we spent most our time swatting flys away. My husband’s whole snapper fried was good though but he didn’t get but a few vegetables with it.
One of the worst dining experiences I have ever had. The chicken piccata was the worst I have ever been served and cost 26$. For limp noodles in magarine with over cooked chicken breasts. Our beverages tasted like dirty dish water and one of which was so undrinkable we sent it back and were still charged for it. Our table spent over 200$ and would have been happy to spend another 100$ if the service and quality weren’t so poor. If you see an empty parking lot in Islamarada during the dinner rush, take the hint and don’t dine there. The only good thing about this dinner was the key lime pie, because they didn’t make it.

Take this from a local, this place is awesome. Everything starts from the host and you are pleasantly greeted by the rest of the staff. Your comfort is their priority without being annoying. With that said, the food is fantastic. Today I had the corned beef, and my opinion on that is, if I could eat the plate I would. Whether you are a local or visiting, make sure you visit this location.

We spotted Tuna while traveling in the Keys; didn't realize from the outside it was anything special. But indeed it was! Great food/wine, great service, charming surroundings. We highly recommend.

As we entered Brian came to greet us with such a warm and welcoming smile . Amy was our waitress, between the two of them we felt like we were being catered to in a very special way! The food could not have been better! The steak was cooked to perfection. Must have onion soup ? To add to all of this we left with Apple Strudel made by Amy. It is so delicious ❤️Amy ??
