You would never guess from the outside that this is one of the best places to eat in the Keys! The night we had dinner, it was very windy and rainy, so the outside dining area was closed and the inside area is small and unimpressive. But Chef Joseph's friendliness and his food creations caused us to feel as if... more

Don't let the unassuming exterior deter you. The Hungry Tarpon is tops in the Keys and south Florida for that matter. Chef Joseph is a wizard with everything...especially seafood, sauces and desserts. Try the lobster thermidor, anything with brandy cream sauce, conch chowder and key lime pie. The chef and his staff are so friendly and accomodating. We kept going... more

We've been back in Chicago for a week and we're still talking about our meal here. The restaurant was recommended in the "Rough Guide", so we went, even though we were worried we were under dressed, having just spent the day snorkling at a nearby state park. We needn't have worried. This place is unpretentious and laid back, filled with... more

This is not a posh restaurant so forget your bling and cocktail dress but it is, undoubtedly one of the best, and most memorable, places that we ate in during a 2 week trip covering Miami, Key West and New York and bits in between. The service was excellent yet unfussy. The food - we had both breakast and an... more
