My wife and I went to Cedar Key for our anniversary recently and thought we'd go to the Island Room, since it was recommended. However, our experience was horrific. We both had ordered blackend Mahi Mahi and two bowls of soup to start. The soup was bland and then we waited, and waited, and waited. We were ignored by the... more

Our B&B recommended The Island Room, and we're glad they did because the restaurant is located at the end of 2nd Street within the Cedar Cove Beach and Yacht Club, and we may not have noticed it otherwise. When we arrived for dinner, the restaurant was quite busy for a Monday night at the end of October when the town... more

Visited there on 10/31/09. It is located right behind the public park on the water. We were walking and had trouble finding the restaurant because it is located behind the swimming pool of the condo/hotel it's in. If you were driving, you might have trouble finding a parking space as the hotel office is also located next to the pool.... more

My wife and I eat here often. It is the top dinner restaurant in Cedar Key, slightly ahead of the Island Hotel. In reading the negative reviews, it seems that they fall into two categories; either the reviewers are cheapskates, in which case they should have looked at the menu that is posted outside the front door before entering the... more

We ignored by the waiter most of the time. When he did ask to take our order, he was very rude. Food was very bland. Air conditioning barely worked. Will never go there again. more

I had printed the menu ahead of our trip and knew it to be pricey, so we decided to go for the Monday night special. It was really worth the money. I had the crab cake and my SO had the grilled shrimp (both for $11.99). Each were served with vegetables and potatoes, as well as individual loaves of bread.... more

It is right on the beach and has an outdoor covered patio where you can eat. The location is great, the food and service were pretty good, and the prices were a little high but not too bad. There aren't many good places to eat in Cedar Key and you can do a lot worse than this one. more

My wife and I have eaten here every time we have visited Cedar Key and have never gotten a bad meal. They specialize in fresh seafood which is always excellent. Prices are not the lowest for the island, but are reasonable considering the Island Room is a step up from most of the restaurants here. Service has not always been... more

We decided to try the Island Room for the second time in many years for our anniversary. We should have known there was a problem when we were greeted by a gentleman server who was drenched in sweat and the AC felt like it may not be working. We were seated in our window seat as requested. The AC got... more
