The Corcoran GroupFebruary 19, 2014We love this low key oceanfront restaurant/bar, especially at sunset when there's live music and unbeatable views. Order the coconut shrimp and pair it with a Bloody Mary.Upvote12Downvote
Itzel De La MoraJuly 31, 2016This is s very good place, better than the some places in key west. With affordable prices. You can order a portabello burguer ...Just remember its a burguer without meat, only mushrooms w/cheeseUpvote8Downvote
The cabana madness is all you need for two person dinner. Finish off with slices of the key lime pie. ...and Bushwackers, drink the bushwackers.
