Matt SilverMay 5, 2015A couple we met while spending the day at the beach recommended this place. They said it's a great locals place so we tried it. It's great period! Excellent food (Caribbean style) and amazing music.
- John HughesMay 3, 2015Best music venue in the Keys. I've been here twice. They had a rough start when they opened up in late 2013 but they are firing on all cylinders now! Food is excellent and unique, (Caribbean Flair).
- Cal FishmanMay 5, 2015Wow what a view. This is not an ocean view restaurant, its over the ocean. Its a big dock sitting in a perfect spot. Food great, drinks great, music awesome! I'll be back again and again.
James HouseMay 5, 2015Went here on Sunday for their open mic. Incredible musicians. The Bloody Mary's with a slider on top is the best I've ever tasted, hands down. A must see in the Keys.
- David GibsonMay 11, 2015Come here after meeting some locals at the beach. It is a true old florida place with lots of charm. They have music 7 nights a week and some amazing caribbean styled appetizers. Jerk chicken rocks!
Adelle FletcherMay 11, 2015I was told my my concierge that they have Karaoke on Thursday, so I went to check it out. I was one of the best Karaoke nights I've ever been to. Excellent food and drinks. I'll be back.
Sharon KruegerMay 7, 2015Stopped off here for lunch after visiting the Dolphin Research Center. It was on the water and had a beautiful view. The food was excellent and I met the owner and he was very nice. It was perfect!
Went to Dockside Tropical Cafe last night after seeing a poster about a Nashville Songwriter event. Homerun on food service and music. Well done!
Jane LaetariFebruary 15, 2016Best salty dog drinks made with fresh squeezed grapefruit juice. Fried pickles are fantastic.
