“ Great place for atmosphere, a best view in town for outside eating. The coconut shrimp was out of this world. Other yummy items were clam chowder soup and calamari. Key lime pie was good with the drizzle just not the best in town, close. ”
“ This restaurant is for you if you want a Keys vibe. Situated on the Gulf side, the sunset is in perfect view from the outside seating. Tables are nothing fancy, typical outdoor decor. The food is good. Menu has decent selections. The server was attentive despite a packed Saturday night crowd. There was live music and if it is too loud for your liking, there are tables inside as well as a sports bar. Pricing ranges... it is a touristy kind of place so pricing could seem a bit higher. Margaritas were tasty ”
“ Had dinner here early tonight! Wow! The view from the bar is breathtaking! The food was excellent! We had chowder, wedge salad, oyster Rockefeller and snapper fish tacos! Everything was excellent and fresh! Such a cool vibe. Was packed when we left! ”
“ Great drinks food ambiance and the people . Love this place very relaxed or you Can party with The djs ”
“ The food was spot on, it was timely tasted good and was fresh. We had chicken parm sub and pasta, shrimp with pasta, chicken Alfredo, a kids chicken tender and artichoke dip. The waitress was friendly and attentive. It did get busy so a few other people stepped up to help. The atmosphere was pretty. We sat outside on the patio where it over looked the water. There's a boat dock so you can park your boat and get food, a small sand area, a tiki bar and a sports bar. The sports bar area was lively and fun! The menus smelled so bad I think they need to change the water/ cloth they are using to wipe them down. I didn't like the fries and I noticed there was trash (menus & napkins) in the water. I'm sure it's difficult to keep them out of the water because of the wind. ”
“ We returned another two times since our last review posted for Jimmy Johnson's! Sunset was amazing - lighting on The deck was gorgeous- service was quick and waiter was pleasant and quick with the food ! We were checked On by multiple servers during our visit. The kids pasta with butter sauce was cooked perfectly the way the kiddos liked it. The Mahi mahi grilled fish tacos never disappoints ! Spinach dip was on point and one of the best we have had in a while! Oysters were fresh - and dessert (the white chocolate macadamia nut cheese cake) was brought home and enjoyed by two people - large slice ! ”
