Like the typical hotel restaurant I was expecting mediocre food and a pricey bill. The food ended up being very good. The fried snapper had to be easily 3-4lbs cooked and the taste was phenomenal. The grouper portion did disappoint, but the taste was great. Our waiter was also lively and full of energy. The restaurant itself is on the water and had a great atmosphere.

Very limited menu. Food average at best. If ur looking for a sea food restaurant go elsewhere. Different folks have different standards but for me this is not the place to seek out great sea food.

After 30 minutes of sitting at the table and no one coming over to ask us if we wanted to order, my husband asked a waitress who walked by if she knew who our server was. She said she didn't but she would help us. That's ridiculous that none of the many servers came over or noticed we were sitting there. She was nice and efficient. Food was okay but not great and expensive for what it was. Very limited Menu. Best part of the restaurant was the view and the open air.

Great location and view. Pricey menu for what is offered. Was very disappointed to arrange with host Fabian that I get the check and he confirmed he would instruct waiter. None of that was done and my guests paid waiter.

This was our third time at this restaurant while we were visiting Key Largo and the other two meals were great, this one was not. I ordered the fish sandwich and my very first bite was nothing but bones. The fried part was so overcooked and well done, there was barely any fish. And as someone who loves fish, the taste was kind of off. They ended up bringing me a piece of broiled grouper which was delicious. Our server was phenomenal and took this situation and offered to resolve it, and then made sure that it got resolved. I really appreciated her. The ambience is terrific, the live music is great, and you cannot beat the view. I just would not recommend the fish sandwich.

Ate here a few years ago, the view is amazing! Great food and ambience! Missed going there this trip but I highly recommend this place, good spot for special occasions and to watch the evening beach ceremony!

We were seated around 7:15 pm and as we ate, we watched a gorgeous sunset. The food was very good but nothing outstanding, except the desserts were amazing: key lime pie & rum cake. The service was impeccable as was the ambiance in general. It's mainly an open air, but roofed, Hemingway-esque looking space. There was a whole upscale beachy vibe! A lovely evening was had.

Our server was lovely. The atmosphere good being next to the water. If you like your food plain and bland this place is for you. My husband had the Mahi Mahi sandwich which was tasteless and I had the quinoa salad which was mostly all quinoa. We truly could have skipped this meal.

Had a terrible experience in that restaurant, the food wasn't what we ordered, we ordered whole grilled fish and we got thawed fried fish which cost us $192 for 4 pieces, we asked for one side of mashed potatoes, we received a huge plate with wet mash and was charged $35 for it! ( We never asked for that), also we asked for 1 house salad and was charged for 5.The waiter heard only what he wanted to hear and wasn't listening to what we were asking, he was also trying to put plates we didn't order on the table to pump the bill and we told him to return some items we didn't order.The check was almost $400 for we didn't ask for and it wasn't even good.I do not recommend this restaurant, only the view.

Restaurant inside a resort. Magical and evocative climate specir at sunset with excellent and friendly service for a unique evening.Very good cocktails, average food.Prices slightly higher than average but given the location it is right.

The food was good tuna poke very good mac and cheese a little bland and lobster chewy. Service was too rushed. Main course came before we finished appetizer which is inexcusable. Automatic 22 percent gratuity

First of all, hats off to our host Omeil. He took the lead on getting us seated after he overheard the hostess ask if we had a reservation when the place was nearly empty.The food was great (Grouper and the lobster Mac and cheese). The drinks were good and the view? It was fantastic! Definitely going back for the food, the view and see if Omeil is there, for the service.
