You will love the fresh seafood, the owner Ramone, his lovely daughter and staff, and better yet the seafood, surpasses any Key West restaurant for 1/2 the cost. What a find! Top off the evening at the HogFish Restaurant nearby for music and drinks and for a taste of "Old Key West", take a look at the adjacent "Safe Harbor Marina", We love you Ramone!! Kathy and Keith

If you like to go where th locals go for fresh seafood, this is the place. It's a little hard to find but it is worth it. The yellowtail snapper just came in that day and is wonderful. Atmosphere is nothing to write home about, but that isn't why they come. If you have an extra minute go out back and check out the packing and shipping area. We had a kitchen in our lodging and purchase some snapper to go.
