Menu Says: "Extra Large Shrimp Lightly Battered" Reality Is: Small Shrimp in Enormous Amount of So-So Batter I Bet Those Shrimp Weren't Even From The Keys or Fresh Old Cole Slaw, Fries Were Ok I Waited 10 minutes for a Menu 2 Guys (sitting WAY TOO CLOSE @ Counter) Arrived 10 minutes after me and got their food 10 minutes Before Me My Food Was Delivered to Someone Else, The Person Receiving it Looked at It Confused Then They Took it From Him and Delivered it To Me! I Was Afraid To Eat it, and Given The Above Food Quality Comments I Was Over The Whole Situation. I Ate The Now Tiny Tasteless Shrimp Devoid of Extra Large Batter) What Happened? New Owners....? When This Place Was Bucktooth Rooster I'd Eat There Several Times A Week. I've Given You 3 Times a Try Now.... Sorry I Will Not Be Back read more

Big Pine Rooster - Local fish burger - American Near Me - Big Pine Key, Florida

Wow! What a fantastic find. Thanks to my new work colleagues- so glad they are in Big Pine Key. Huge portions- great food! Very eclectic restaurant and good service. Ate a bbq panini, good chunky potato salad as a side and fresh cut ( I presume because they were so good) potato wedges. I hope I get a chance to return, but if not - it won't be forgotten. They actually have good sweet tea! read more

This place is fantastic. We brought Steph and Alex here on Friday, Oct 27 for dinner. We were seated within 5 minutes. They don't have liquor so we ordered Sangria. RJ and I shared shrimp in garlic sauce and a lobster roll which was huge. I think Alex had a lobster Reuben and Steph had a chicken wrap. Our server was friendly, service was fast, and portions are so large we were glad we were sharing. read more

Big Pine Rooster - Fresh shrimp omelet with back onions and peppers. Highly recommend! - American Near Me - Big Pine Key, Florida

This place used to be amazing but it has gone way down hill. Sadly, they cannot seem to get it together over there. Whether busy or empty, the staff do not seem to have any clue what is going on. Even empty, we didn't get drink refills. We banned this place for a long time but decided to give it another shot... twice... and each time it is a train wreck inside with the staff. The front manager is rude to customer and the staff. Low morale and food takes an unrealistic amount of time to get served. Save your money folks, keep on driving. read more

Food was good, service was fantastic! we did wait a few minutes to be seated, but there was only one person working as hostess and server. She did an awesome job and had a wonderful, fun attitude. read more

Change in plans took us here on a Sunday night. Not too crowded when we got there but it filled up fast. Had the "frickles " fried pickles for appetizers. They are good and plenty for 4 to share. Dinner orders were lobster Ruben, fish and chips, shrimp basket and Mahi-Mahi Ruben. These did not disappoint. I had the shrimp basket and these were large pink sweet shrimp lightly fried in a tempura batter. Excellent. Sides were loaded potato salad and coke slaw. Both sides were well prepared and tasted fresh as well. Server gave great suggestions and answered questions about menu items. Her dinner suggestions were spot on. Great place to eat. Go there if in the area. read more

Brought a scout troop of 23 here. They found us all tables in short order, pumped up our thirsty group with pitchers of water and got our food to us promptly. All the food was great. From the French toast to the cheese steak to the amazing coconut shrimp. The pine skillet and blacked yellow fin tuna. Everyone loved the food and the sides were great! The French fries and onion rings are the bomb! If you are in the keys, don't miss Sol and the Big Pine Rooster! read more

OMG! One of the best!! We stopped in after FF on our way back and had breakfast. I got the skillet with the sausage gravy and it was amazing!! The wife got an omelet that was larger than the plate. Food and prices were on point! Go there!!! read more

We have a house down the street, so we eat the rooster quite often. I walked in the door and realized they've changed owners. . I was talking to the server "Brianna" and asked if they still had the mother clucker. It's a chicken sandwich they had on the previous menu with the previous owners. At that time a cook named Eddie walked by and said I can make that for you. It wasn't on the menu and he went above and beyond to make the guest happy. Highly recommend the place! The food is still awesome. read more

Slow but you're in the keys but worth every penny and minute. I recommend the scramble with a homemade biscuit!!!

Awesome restaurant! The whisky chicken sandwich was so tasty. Also, the mac and cheese was amazing. We even ordered an extra cup of it because it was so good. Lol. Our boys loved the bbq burger. Our waitress and the service was great. Highly recommend this place if you're in the area! read more

Good food, prompt service, friendly staff. Other restaurants in the area could learn a thing or two from this place. I dad the baby back ribs. Tasty, but the mashed potatoes were less than desirable. read more

This Place is AWESOME!! The menu is a little overwhelming but everything just looks SOOOO Good! It was all Amazing. We had fried Fickles and Rooster wraps. Both were very good and the Seafood Pasta was another 5 . We will be back before leaving the keys! Definitely worth a stop! You won't be disappointed and you'll likely need a nap afterwards. read more

Great place to stop for a bite to eat on the way to Key West! I had a veggie quesadilla. It was delicious! The service was good and the waitress checked on us often. I stopped here there a couple of years ago when in the area and will do it again. I would have given 5 stars but I thought it took0 a Little longer than expected. We will stop there again for sure! read more

I wasn't too impressed with the food. Some reviews say that the servings were huge but I'd have to disagree. I had the Caesar salad with the bronzed shrimp and scallops. It was a decent amount of seafood but they were very light on the lettuce. And then I had to request the Parmesan cheese since it didn't make it on the salad. Then it was drenched in salad dressing. On a good note, the Frickles (fried pickles) were very good and the serving was very large. The price was very good for the amount that was served. Also, the corned beef Rueben was as described. Very large and a very good cut of corned beef. read more

When this first opened up years ago it was really good, now the food quality has gone downhill . Food is edible but nothing special.

Food seems to of gone downhill. Went last night, wife ordered fish and chips (fries) which came with two sides so she got onion rings and coleslaw. When the meal was finally delivered it was a couple of pieces of fried fish and the onion rings, coleslaw with no chips. Had to explain to the young waitress who barely spoke English that fish and fries usually come together when you order fish and chips. The fried fish ended up tasting bitter apparently due to dirty oil. My wife mentioned it to the waitress who made no attempt to relay the concern to the kitchen. I ordered the open face roast beef platter which also took sometime coming out. The roast beef and gravy came out less then luke warm to the point the gravy started to congeal. I hate sending food back for a reheat because it seems to take twice as long to come back out and this time was no exception. I think last night we learned our lesson and won't be coming back anytime soon. read more

I was pleasantly surprised to find so many vegetarian options! I usually cheat and get fresh fish when visiting the keys but it was comforting knowing that there were additional food options for me. Great food and great service. I was disappointed when they brought the drinks out with straws already in them. This is such a beautiful place and we know what plastic pollution is doing to our oceans. It would be great if they didn't give straws unless someone asked for them or switched to paper straws. read more

Stopped here for breakfast from our way back from Key West. Breakfast menu is very limited - I guess they changed their menu. I got the breakfast burrito and it was good but it's not hard to make good tasting breakfast food. Price is fair as well. read more

Wow! Service was amazing and the burger was cooked perfectly. We shared one burger and asked for it rare, they gave us exactly what we ordered. Don't miss a visit here read more

Antoinette was our server, and despite the small staff she was really kind and helpful. We had fish tacos, french dip, and fish and chips and it was all really good. They had some good local beers on tap, Crazy Lady IPA was really good. This is a good chill, smaller, local atmosphere that's perfect for a laid back dinner. read more

Food is awesome. Good Cuban sandwich. Great French fries. Nice staff. Locals recommended it so we went. (:

Attached pictures of tips on common mistakes made while making mac and cheese. My mac and cheese "sauce" literally looked like it was made of just water and mustard because it had zero consistency to the point that it was practically soup... Also, they burned my friends' chicken parms... Fried and chicken tenders were good though surprisingly! read more

Best coconut shrimp and conch fritters ever- oh and did I mention ribs - finger licking goodness. Thank you for doing a great job.

We are here twice in our 2 week stay. The food was good the first visit and not over priced for the quantity. We ordered from their special board and was very pleased with the dish. Warning when the waitress ask you if you want the cherry pepper sauce on the side, take her advise. It was very spicy and I enjoy spicy dishes. Second visit Daughter had their soup and salad they were out of conch soup so she had their French onion. It wasn't good. I had their 2 handed Reuben well I had better. Wife had the fried scallops they were good. Place does get a bit busy so if you hit it during the rush you will have a wait. read more

Rude waitresses, felt racially discriminated! A Caucasian family arrived after us and were allowed to wait inside for a table, but our Asian family was told to wait outside the restaurant in the heat. read more

This is probably my favorite spot for seafood in the keys, especially if you're looking for good scallops. I'm from Missouri, so when it comes to fresh seafood, we're pretty limited. Aside from this, all of their food is made from scratch which is always a bonus. Clean establishment along with a friendly and attentive staff. My two complaints are only the placement of the bathrooms, (right in front of a server station), so there's not much room for a line and there always tends to be one. The second would be their up-charge prices.. I ordered the shrimp/scallop basket and requested to have them coconut battered instead of sauce battered, and the manager told the server to charge me $5.00 for it. Pretty ridiculous if you ask me, but none the less, everything tasted great and I'll be back. read more
