I agree with another review that the parking lot is difficult to find in the dark. The restaurant has a lovely beachy atmosphere. The food was delicious and did allow for non gluten friendly options. The curry snapper was full of flavour. The live music on the beach was enjoyable. The service was lacking. We had to wait a long time for the hostess, a grumpy teenager to seat us. The waitress was efficient but not very friendly.

Ate my last bite of food, and I realized I had to immediately rave about this place. My wife and I split a gluten free pepperoni pizza and gluten free penne alla vodka, and both were absolutely delicious. Our server Memo took such great care of us. This place is a gem. Great for gluten free pizza and pasta. Great vibes, kind people. Thoughtfully crafted with beautiful items and tables imported from Italy. Don’t miss it if you’re in the Keys!

Came because I have to eat gluten free. I have Celiac's. Medical diet for me. Also said they have gluten free items listed on menu. (Lulu was our servers name I believe. She was egar to serve us but not egar to help.) They sure did all 4 of them. Two types of salad... A bowl of conch soup and you could have lobster tail... They didn't even put the price in for that. The avocado salad was gross. The conch soup was actually more of a veggie soup. If there was conch in there... Or the flavor... Was beyond me. Waitress was no help. Can't recall her name but she was older. If you are going to accommodate customers that need to be gluten free... You should be able to have more choice than vegetable soup or one of two salads. OR the most expensive thing on the menu. I fail to understand why grilled fish can't be served gluten free. Or so we were told be our server. Why can't restaurants train their servers to help their customers... Considering how much I paid for the soup and salad which just those two things cost at least 34.00 give or take. And we spent a LOT more than that. Of course.. Great view. Items came out quickly. This type of thing just really upsets me because I know from experience that the server makes all the difference regards enjoying the experience.... And we tip very well every time because we know that they are counting on that money to make their families... Or their lives a little more comfortable... Put food on their tables... Pay their rent. I try very hard not to cause them problems... All I asked is that you give me something decent to eat and not make me sick at the same time. I can't help that I can't eat gluten... It is a medical diet for me. I just want to be able to go out save enjoy myself sometimes instead of having to stay home and cook for everyone all the time. So tired of this. :(

Had an amazing time here! I had been all up and down the Keys for a week and this was my last meal on the way to the airport. It was absolutely amazing! The skillets were phenomenal and as a bonus, gluten free. Loved their bottomless mimosas, views of the water and the amazing service. Can’t wait to come back again in the future.
