We tried this place based on its location due to not having many restaurant options currently in…read morethis location. The only reason this place is even getting a star is because the waiter was very nice and apologized for the way the food came out. Upon entering this building the ambiance was quite strange , a few booths in the corner, not a very pleasant ambiance. The restaurant smelled heavily of grease as if everything is fried. There must be a poor ventilation system. I ordered the garlic scallops and my wife ordered the cod sandwich with coleslaw. Firstly, the scallops came out raw, undercooked and extremely gritty with sand in each bite. This is due to poor quality and not being washed, prepared correctly. My spouse's dish, the Cod was not warm, tasted very old, and was completely compressed;flattened. When we asked the waiter if this was fresh seafood he was honest and answered "No, it's frozen". And the coleslaw had a very bad smell to it. And my spouse got sick that evening from eating the little bit of food we did try. We will not be back.

Friends rave about this place. I finally had a chance to go. I called because open table has zero…read moreavailability. The hostess answered and she told me I could have a table for one at 7:15! Ok! I got dressed up and walked over there. My table was ready on time; it was in the lounge area of the restaurant. They offered me the table or said I could sit at the bar. I opted to sit at the bar. The bar was almost full but people were leaving. Apparently people eat early there. The bartender was swamped but smiled and got me a glass of water. Soon I had menus. I like that they have a regular menu as well as a specials menu, including the usual cocktails and some special cocktails. I ordered the conquest, which seemed like a twist on an old fashioned. They offered bread or focaccia bread, I declined. And heads up- bread service is not included. It's an up charge. Normally I don't care but I was having dessert, not bread. I had the halibut special. It was phenomenal. One of the guys from the kitchen dropped it off and asked if I needed anything'- I replied salt. I find that I need salt often at restaurants. They brought the salt out real fast! I had a bite and determined it didn't need any more salt- it was perfectly salted! Woohoo! Fantastic. I ate my whole dish and then I savored my cocktail. The bartender wasn't much for conversation , as she was very busy, alone, covering the entire bar and drinks for the whole restaurant. She did invite me to try dessert, and mentioned a coconut cream cake that was not on the menu. I agreed to it and it was heavenly. Seemed like cheesecake icing with fluffy layers of cake and subtle coconut flakes throughout. The chocolate ice cream was weird at first but then I realized it's like almond joy/ mounds - coconut and chocolate are often paired. The espresso crumble gave it a nice crunch and there was caramel all over the plate. Wow! I took the majority of the cake home. It was a large portion and indulgent. I paid my tab and finished my drink. I was not rushed. I would go back again. It's a bit pricey. The fish special was $58. The cocktail was $17 and the dessert was $16. So one person, who did not add on the bread service, was $91. It's expensive. I would emphasize you can probably get a seat at the bar if you can't get a reservation. Also- the entrance is hard to find. It's in the parking lot and not facing the main road. I got a little lost walking there. The signage is poor. I can't imagine going there the first time in the dark. So give yourself a couple extra minutes if it's your first time going there.

We were over 30 ladies and our servers Zak & Tabby were superb in getting everything our ladies desired for lunch! We celebrated Mel o dy's March birthday ! And we had a few new comers join us.

Food, ambiance and atmosphere top notch! We will be back for lunch, again very soon!

We've lived in this town for more than 40 years and have never dined at this restaurant. I don't know what it looked like in the past, but it doesn't feel like they have changed their menu or their pricing in ages. Service was great, the food was ok, and the drinks were mediocre. It was nice to check this off our bucket list, but I don't see us going back. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't worth a second trip to us. The restaurant was buzzing with people. I can see why it is a staple in the community, we just prefer something a little more memorable.

Prices seemed on par for the region and felt that the quality of options for fresh was wide. Scallops, grouper, salmon, and Key West pinks all came home with us for the week and didn't break the bank. Dinner for four each night was about $30 in seafood and really it was almost too much. Loved the service with a smile and check out the weekday special dinner for four on the wall for take out!!

Love the vibe of the whole thing. The adobo was good too. The special was a rotisserie chicken with a nice presentation of banana leaves and rice. Next time I'll try the Leche flan. They didn't have it this time. I'm glad I discovered them with the help of Charlotte Technical College. They seemed to have a lot of interest. This is a great addition to the area. It's a food truck that has a great family vibe. We need some more Filipino options and this was indeed very good. I'd recommend a try as I love supporting local. Next time I'll stick with the pancit and lumpia because those were my favorite. We all have our own favorites. I would say try the adobo if you want to try something new and are open to new flavors but stick with lumpia and the pancit if you'd like to play it safe. They also had teriyaki that I didn't try but I know what I'll be coming back for. I hope to see them more often. Thanks for adding a great deal of variety to the area.

The service staff is so friendly and attentive. Ask to sit in the "Money Room"! The cocktails were stunning, both visually and in flavor, setting the perfect relaxed island mood. The famous "Cheeseburger in Paradise" lived up to every expectation--the patty was incredibly generous and cooked to perfection, making it one of the most satisfying burgers I've had anywhere. And the turtle ice cream? As adorable as it is delicious. Topped with a charming candy turtle, it's the kind of treat that makes you smile before you even take a bite. Be sure to take in the views from the historic water tower--breathtaking scenery that captures the untouched, timeless beauty of the area. Cabbage Key isn't just a meal, it's an experience--peaceful, nostalgic, and unmistakably Old Florida. I can't wait to return.

Since it was a warm afternoon, I had the Orange Colada. Tasted like a creamsicle. So good, I ordered another (with a floater). My other half had a Cosmopolitan. She enjoyed it. For an appetizer we shared the Tuna Tataki (Chilled extra rare, seared tuna sliced thin and served atop Asian slaw dressed in a cilantro vinaigrette). Good stuff. I had the grilled Grouper Sandwich, and my other half had the Crab Cake Sandwich. They both come with cole slaw and fresh fruit and a pickle. Delish. Shared their famous Key Lime Pie for dessert.
