    Had definitely an interesting experience here. We came during the end of breakfast and the start of lunch. I was craving something salty and sweet. The common American taste. And it was an interesting experience Bf got eggs bacon and French toast. They were pretty standard diner. But you see how big and perfect those bacon are? I'd have to say if you are just wanting a snack, COME FOR THE DONUTS. Miami just doesn't know how to do donuts and this place is perrrrrffect. I wish they opened a donut shop in Miami for me! They are so fresh. I'm glad I was able to get one. The jalapeño calamari was interesting and kinda disappointing. It was mostly jalapeños. The balsamic sauce and tomato were a really weird combo with it. It didn't work for me at all. It was very over priced as well. I'd skip that. Overall, cute place and very busy. We waited about 10 min to be seated with one group infront of us.

    Biscuits and gravy. Add eggs and pico de gallo for the win.

    Great food, great people, and great prices... especially for the Keys. Their biscuits and gravy add eggs and pico de gallo... makes an awesome breakfast.

    Well I do meet the big pine rooster he is in the potty.

    Breakfast: half plate biscuits and gravy / burritos. Out standing definitely leaving happy and full. Server was awesome she attend just enough to make the experience great. Old key west bar and grille. Very cool. Sad I didn't get to meet the big pine rooster. lol. Price was great too.

    Wife and I came here last year and loved it, so we decided to stop again. Checked reviews and saw they had dropped a bit. The main complaint was service. While there was only one server, she was great. We loved the food . The whiskey was exceptionally good. Will be back again

    Rubin sandwich

    Worst food so far. Ordered liver and onions. The liver and onions were cold and dry. It was layered on top of cold mashed potatoes the Rubin sandwich was supposed to have pastrami. The meat was fatty and looked like bacon and tasted like bacon. The iced tea was hot and no ice the server didn't know anything about the food on the menu he definitely needs training will never waist money there again. $100 for 3 people to eat lunch and didn't even eat it . Left hungry

    Bar area with plenty of seating in the dining area

    We eat here several times , every time we visit the keys. Food and service were excellent and the atmosphere is very cozy. They keep the place immaculate! My husband had the Cuban burger and said it's his new favorite meal. I had the whiskey chicken dinner and it was done to perfection. Sorry to hear the former owners are no longer there but the new ones are doing a great job! Don't forget the homemade donuts!!

    The Cuban

    Every single bite was over the top delicious. The whiskey chicken sandwich was to die for. The fish platter. The Cuban sandwich delish and the fries probably the best I've had. Wish we lived here!

    Service fabulous, cheese sticks, onion rings and chicken tenders all great. But really we would come back just for the service.

    Brisket, missing the cornbread in the picture
    Cameron C.

    The place was empty, a bit surprising. The waitress was amazing. Met us at the door. Very patient as we altered the order. She said if we were covid conscious , we could order online for a contactless transaction. Not necessary, but very appreciated. The restaurant dining itself is a large open area for minutes seating. But looks like a great place. Food was tasty as well. I had the bbq brisket, with baked beans, fries, and Cornbread. The Cornbread was moist, buttery, with honey. Very delicious. Food was 4 stars, but the waitress level of service pushed to that rare 5ty star.

    Conch fritters, coleslaw, cornbread
    Laura D.

    Excellent service! The conch fritters, Cole slaw, cornbread, pulled pods Sammie's, and fries were all top notch!

    Ordered the BLT and short stack with eggs and bacon.
    Diana C.

    Very cute restaurant, it felt very cozy inside. We were greeted right away and seated. We tried some of their donuts and they were very delicious.

    actually amazing food me and my husband stopped here after our drive up the keys from keywest and the service is fast and the servers are super nice the food is so good i recommend coming here

    First and foremost, do not waste your time or money coming here…read more As a Miami native, I was genuinely disappointed by both the food and the level of service. Unfortunately, neither lived up to expectations. We started with the "jumbo" wings, which were anything but jumbo. We received only flats, and they were some of the smallest wings I've ever been served. After bringing this to the staff's attention, we were told the manager would take 50% off the order. However, when the bill arrived, we were informed that the manager had already left and the discount could no longer be honored. Instead, we were given only the $4 happy hour discount, despite being promised otherwise. For our entrées, we ordered the brisket sandwich and the half chicken. Neither was worth ordering. The chicken lacked the crispy texture it was advertised to have, and the brisket was bland and without flavor. The sandwich was also supposed to come with truffle fries, but instead we were served cold, plain fries. After mentioning it, the solution was to bring us a side of truffle oil and Parmesan cheese and ask us to mix it ourselves. The service was equally disappointing. We asked our server twice for drink refills, but she never brought them. We eventually had to flag down another server just to get our beverages refilled. Overall, this was a frustrating dining experience from start to finish. Between the poor-quality food, unfulfilled promises regarding the bill, and inattentive service, this restaurant fell well below the standard I would expect from a Miami establishment. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience deserves one. I sincerely hope management addresses these issues because the current level of food quality and customer service is simply unacceptable. and quality is embarrassing for miami.

From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by the smell of smoked meat, and you know you're in for something special. It's a quaint little place with community-style picnic table seating indoors, and you can tell it gets busy during peak hours. The staff treated us like family from the moment we walked in and made us feel right at home. I ordered the baby back ribs and brisket, and both were outstanding. The collard greens were hands down the best I've ever had, and the sweet potato soufflé was just as memorable. Even the Texas toast was incredible--I don't usually talk about bread, but this stuff was fire! The drinks were served in large cups, and the sweet tea was absolutely perfect. Dinner for two came to about $78, which might seem a little high at first, but quality barbecue isn't cheap, and every dollar was worth it. The portions were generous, everything was fresh, and this was easily one of the best barbecue meals I've had. We were so full we almost skipped dessert, but I'm glad we didn't. The homemade Key lime pie was the best we had during our entire trip to the Keys. It was smooth, creamy, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of Key lime flavor, and unlike some of the others we tried, it wasn't gritty at all. It was the perfect ending to an incredible meal. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in South Florida.

Every table she assisted she referred to our table as being the problem where the tables would then be staring at us and our kids the whole time. Every ask was met with a forced smile, and rolling of the eyes as she walked away. She then went to the system to enter the orders and was pointing at us - She clearly was annoyed of having to serve a large group like ours and made the experience terrible despite the food. I understand it's inconvenient when a high number table arrives but there was still a level of service and respect that should have been present. We will never go back.

My husband ordered fried tilapia, yams, and lima beans. All dinners comes with a rice. We had pigeon peas and rice. My husband went in the restaurant to pick up the food. He came back and as I was looking over the food, I didn't see any cornbread. I saw the reviews on YELP, so I asked him to ask can we purchase cornbread or do they have any. The female employee stated she gave us some. No, we didn't have any. My husband came back to check and none was in our bag. She said that she gave us some. First of all, we would not ask for anything that we didn't pay for. If you look at how much we dine out, you would know that we spend money really well, and don't need any handouts. I was really disappointed! But anyway, she gave us what we were supposed to have, which was the cornbread what we NEVER received. My husband said he think that it was the owner that told the employee not to argue with the customer.
