After hearing mixed reviews of the Green Turtle Inn we decided to try it and are very happy we did. The food was wonderful. The scallop appetizer was very good. mI am no turtle soup expert but it was kind of bland - it did come with pepper sherry which added a nice kick to it. The brasied short ribs... more

Lunch here yesterday. Two of us waited 45 minutes for 1/2 pound of boiled shrimp each. And the place was not crowded. Did they run to Miami for the stuff? Key lime pie for dessert was not Key lime _anything_. It was plain cheesecake in a pie mold topped with Cool Whip. Yes, Cool Whip. Local institution recently renovated and... more

We were last in Islamorada two years ago, when the Green Turtle was still being built. We thought the neon sign of the swimming turtle was cool, and made a mental note to come here the next time. In December was our "next time," and were going to try Morada Bay. But the evening was windy, and we thought a... more

Had lunch here on the final hours of our Florida trip. The Conch and Turtle chowders were superb. Service was good and the brownie dessert we shared was the best of the holiday. Am only sorry I couldn't go for dinner. more

This restaurant has a nice 'shacklike' quality. They make a great turtle soup and at the time I went they were making this rum cake that is still one of the best desserts I have eaten to this day. more

We stayed in Islamorada for 7 days dining at Marker 88, and Lor-i-lei, and Islamorada Fish Company first as all were on the water. The fourth day was overcast and no sunset so we decided to try the Green Turtle Inn. Don't let the sign fool you this is a great upscale restaurant. The decor, staff, chef, and bar tender... more

We fell upon this place when another recommendation turned out to be closed down, but what a find. Really helpful service, delicious food (crab cakes, Thai fingers and Cracked Conch to start and fish sandwich, Cuban and Caesar Salad). Pretty reasonable too. more

I have been coming to Islamorada for the past 25 years, and must say that the Green Turtle has the absolute best food in the area. This is my new favorite restaurant in the Keys. Most restaurants are expensive in Islamorada, and few really deliver - but the Green Turtle has an amazing menu and great atmosphere. more
