“Great little Market with beautiful crafts, clothing and foods and fruits & veggies. Take a break from all the stores with the same merchandise and check out the Farmers Market!“

“Of course the seafood is downright delicious at Captain Craig’s Restaurant. What was unexpected is the sublime homemade key lime pie. It is the real deal, complete with a beautiful toasted meringue topping on this glorious rendition of this classic dessert. If you have no room for dessert, I recommend ordering a piece of the pie to go.“

“Harriette's Restaurant Bayside, Mile Marker 95.7 Key Largo, FL 33037 4 Stars Stopping for some morning chow at Harriette's Restaurant in Key Largo should be a requirement for everyone traveling down the Overseas Hwy exploring the vast beauty of the Keys. However, once again, my taste buds are ahead of my fingers and I get ahead of myself. As I entered Harriette's Restaurant, I was immediately transported back to my Grandmother's house on the Sebastian River. Not only was the outside reminiscent of a bygone era, the décor ; screamed mid-century time capsule, however, it was the scents assaulting my olfactory orifice that had me looking for my favorite chair at Grandma's table. This may be in the Keys, but I am confident that it ain't no tourist trap. Christina was my server for the meal and was exemplary in every way. She began her service with a sincere, warm Southern greeting, making all her customers feel like family. We are in Grand Ma-Ma's house, after all. I asked my new favorite second cousin twice removed on my mother's brother's babysitter's side for a stack of Pancakes, an order of their Corned Beef Hash, two eggs over medium, Sausage Biscuit, hash browns, and one more biscuit as they looked so good. While I didn't try one, If you take a peek at the pics, you can see that they have quite a panoply of muffins and are well known for them. Christina soon returned with our Southern viands, and I eagerly got to work. Have I mentioned the aromas disseminating about the place? I slapped some butter on the stack of fresh-off-the-griddle Johnny Cakes, poured some real maple syrup over the top and plopped a forkful in my mouth. The cakes were warm, fluffy and delicious. Nothing beats a flapjack right off the griddle with real maple syrup. Nothing. However, I wasn't here to enjoy sampling their delectable delights; I was on a mission to bring you raw, unadulterated food reviews. To that end, I turned my fastidious palate to the Corned Beef Hash before me. This was quite good. I don't think it was made in the back, as the cut was too uniform for most line cooks. If it was food service Hash, at least it wasn't bottom-of-the-truck stuff. It was flavorful and cooked to perfection. My eggs were cooked correctly, the hash browns were obviously made fresh to order and the sausage gravy was spot on. Finally, the biscuit was not only gigantic; it was obviously made with love and pure devotion to the obvious -- care. Is this place going to win a James Beard award? No. Is it my new favorite place for breakfast in the Keys? Maybe. I know one thing for sure: Harriette's Restaurant is an excellent breakfast for a splurge vacation to the Florida Archipelago. The Big Boy says, “Enjoy the homemade grub and if you try a muffin, please let me know!”“

“Went with the family. Everybody was very happy with the food and service.“

“We went almost everyday! Bagels are delicious! Great to have my kids know what a real bagel is. Don’t be deterred by a long line, they go quick plus it’s fun listening to all the accents. Highly recommend the Nova with the works!“

“Our first visit. Lovely lunch on the screened patio. Wife had a salad, I had a burger. Food was good, service was pleasant and punctual, prices were better than average. Very quaint little spot with a lovely atmosphere and good food. Fish fry Friday is apparently the bomb! Looking forward to trying it.“

“Best kept secret! You will never be disappointed.. Food is always fresh and delicious! I’ve been dining here since it first opened and I must say there’s never been an issue with dining there! Great staff service, excellent menu to make everyone happy! If you enjoy Mexican and Cuban cuisine, this is the hidden gem you’ve been looking for! The wraps, sandwiches and all else are amazing and the portions are amazing. I, like so many others that live in the Florida Keys know a good place when we’ve found one, and this is it!“

“We had pre-purchased the breakfast for two with our room at the Holiday Inn. Normally you can get the breakfast bar or order from the menu but on Tuesday morning that we were there they did not have the buffet. Their omelettes were wonderful with choice of cakes or toast as well as coffee and water. I knocked the review down a little because they wanted to charge us for a glass of juice.“

“This place is just not a pretty face. Ok, well it is but, the food is as tasty as the sunsets are dramatic.“

“Visited Sharkeys this past Sunday and had a great time. It’s like a sports dive bar that had TVs around the whole place which was great for us since we came to watch the UM game. I will say our visit started off a bit crazy cause our server had to throw people out for yelling and cursing at her about a tv she couldn’t change. From what we heard the people wanted her to change a tv but another table was watching it and they were there first so she couldn’t change it. And I totally get wanting to watch the tv closest to you but the game was on two other TVs and it’s not the servers fault that someone else wanted to watch something different. Other than that our food and drinks were amazing and our server was very nice and attentive even with all the craziness that happened. We ate wings, chicken sliders, and the Baja bowl with shrimp and everything was delicious. I would definitely come back to watch some more football games.“

“Expected a greasy diner experience - instead had a 2 star Michelin dinner. Service was prompt and courteous. Will definitely be coming back.“

“Amazing dining experience and really great food at great prices! It’s a key’s staple! My one preference is more boiled food options, but most seafood restaurants in the keys and the U.S. for that matter prefers fried so it is what it is. At least I found a few non -fried options like the Cajun crabs.“

Then there is the atmosphere-tarpons swimming by, pelicans floating, and the view-wow! To add to that there was great music from a singer (didn’t catch his name) and a wonderful waitress! Definitely will be back!“

“Einfach Wunderbar 🌴💚 I'm freien sitzen und auf das Meer schauen, essen lecker, leider alles in Plastik serviert“

“Marker 88 is an absolute gem in Islamorada! The atmosphere is relaxed and beautiful, with unbeatable waterfront views, but the highlight of my visit was the blackened hogfish with Tabasco butter sauce. Perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and the sauce was incredible — rich, flavorful, and with just the right amount of kick. It’s one of those dishes you’ll be thinking about long after the meal. The service was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. If you’re in the Keys, Marker 88 is a must-visit for both the food and the setting. Highly recommend!“

“Good food ,,,,,,,, friendly service“

“They kept the charm of the old Marker 88 in little details like keep the 2 GREEN covered table and benches almost in the same location as before... a iconic scene was shot in one of them on a episode of BLOODLINE. Food is as good if not better than before if that is possible.... service is excellent too. Friendly staff including hostess/host and waitresses/waiters very impressed with the new dock and WOW EVERY table has a GREAT view to take in LOTS of selfies were being taken during my visit, I celebrated my 78th Birthday 1 day before and had Fresh Mahi Mahi Tacos for Lunch. So happy they did a complete do over after the destruction from the hurricane that so much damage to the beautiful Keys. Welcome Back Marker 88! Happy to see you there....“

“Best bar in the Keys! Great atmosphere, great service and great food!“
