This was a long very positive review about how fantastic the food was and then I tried to call and get it to go order. Don't do that on a Saturday night because a very rude woman will answer the phone and then completely ignore you. So as long as you're going to go in and get some food here you're all right but evidently ordering io go from this restaurant is simply not accepted. Incredibly disappointing. But this place is busy enough that I'm sure they won't care🤷♂️

Stopped by on accident, and it was delicious. I can’t add anything other than: perfect — 10/10.
Our server Diana was an angel — so kind and helpful.

This place used to be a fabulous restaurant. Boy is it gone downhill. It started with as soon as we walked in. The fans were on high speed, low, and behold the wiring for the lights and the fans are wired together. They lost the remote so whenever the lights are on, the fans are on at high speed. Try to find a seat that wasn’t blustery and cold and you’d be lucky. Then onto the kitchen the cook had long hair, no hat or hair nut smoking over the stove, reading his phone paying more attention to that than he was the cooking just not what you’d like to see in a quality restaurant.
The real reason for this review is the quality of the chicken sandwich. It was so thin when fried, it was thus overcooked. When complained about it, the server had that intended to be friendly attitude, but the words didn’t reflect it. Basically it is what it is. Take it or leave it that was the attitude that was shared.
It’s tough to see a local establishment like this go downhill. We used to go there all the time, but the quality of the food has just gone downhill. Save yourself the time and move onto the next place. There’s plenty of them down here.

The atmosphere is neat. Just a little hole in the wall. Small but a comfy little dive joint.
Burgers were good, French fries were crispy, and the micro sodas were good. We wanted shakes but their cooler was out or something so they didn't have ice cream.

Family friendly, clean, nice place. A little on the small side.
Nancy Pants burger was fantastic, probably one of the best burgers I've ever had. Wife is gluten free and got her burger in a lettuce wrap instead of a bun.
Bartender/waiter/waitress was super nice, spent time talking with us about if we were enjoying our time in the Keys.
Prices were wallet friendly.
Served local brewed beer as well as domestic (local version of Octoberfest was awesome).
My wife and I ate there the next day as well. Food and service was equally as good as the day before.
Will definitely go back the next time we go there for vacation.

This small eatery has a simple setup with metal tables and an overall worn-out look. The best days of the furniture, signage, and decor seem long gone, and a bit of cleaning and renovation would go a long way.
Food arrived within minutes — clearly pre-prepared — and while it tasted fine, the portions were quite small for U.S. standards. Honestly, the many 5-star reviews are hard to relate to.
It feels like the owner hasn’t looked at the place with open eyes for a while. A checklist for improvements — tables, chairs, cleanliness, and signage — could really lift it up.
Overall, okay for a quick stop, but not a place I’d return to.

Great place to get a beer and a burger at a reasonable price in the keys. They have a good selection of beer in both can and draft. They also have specials that rotate but a good standard menu.

Best burger in The Keys!
One of the best burgers I ever ate. The meat was amazing, tasted like fresh medium steak. If you ever come by you need to make a stop here. Classic small American dine in restaurant. The staff was pretty kind and welcoming, the prices are affordable, looks nondescript from the outside, but it’s amazing from the inside.

App wings were great! Fries great! Burgers were ok. The price was way to much for the food. Burger joints shouldn't cost more the a seafood restaurant.
