    The service and bartending staff were very welcoming and inviting to all my questions. My meal was fantastic. I'll have to get the same thing again! It's a super cute restaurant with a tiki bar outside. I really liked the vibe. I got my meal to go and got a couple drinks at the bar while waiting. It did not take long to get my food. I ate every bite. I would say try it!

    Honestly, a tad disappointed with my Snappers visit. I was in Key Largo for the weekend for a wedding. On the non-activity days we explored a little bit and I had been craving a whole fried fish. Given the name, we decided to come to Snappers. It's a nice locale with a nice outdoor view. You could see some big fish by their dock which is a cute touch and entertaining if you want to take a quick glance while waiting for your food to arrive. However, the service was very lacking. It took a long time to be checked on even after our initial greeting when we had not even placed an order yet. There was a small issue with our order and we asked to swap it with a different entrée, - we decided a burger would be better. This simple swap took over 30 minutes while we had already been waiting 30+ minutes after we were seated to get the initial food. I think that the server might've forgotten to place the order or had forgotten to go check to pick it up after we asked about it, it took still another 15 minutes for it to reach the table. We were on a time crunch so it was not convenient for us. By the time the replacement entrée had reached the table, the entire entrée that we had kept at the table was already finished, all while the replacement meal had just arrived. I really enjoyed my whole snapper. However, it was very overpriced, $70, for ~2pound fish. This is a lot higher than even nice downtown upscale prices in Fort Lauderdale or Miami. I'm used to paying maybe $40 for a casual restaurant like this. I figured " while in Rome." because I had this fixation on getting a whole fried fish while I was still in the Keys and this was our last day in the area. The whole experience just took longer than necessary, especially because we had a long drive back home. It would've been nice to receive a complementary discount or dessert for the large wait time. Alas , the food was good, ambience is nice but it was overpriced for my taste , dragged down by the service and ticket time on the food. Unfortunately, I cannot give Snappers a high rating at this time, but I hope to retry them in the future for a better experience.

    Lia thank you for the amazing service and attention. I love this place so much. I'm 1 week prior to ACL surgery and needed an amazing place with great ambiance and food. Love this place ! Can't wait to go back.

    The bay side view is nice. Service was okay. Went for birthday and they served us a slice of keylime pie. Good food but had better while in key largo.

    We walked in without a reservation on off-season. The restaurant is both indoor and outdoor. The outdoor seating is expensive on a nice deck in the back. They do have live music but the food I thought, was just so so. My husband ordered the mussels and I felt they were a bit overcooked. I had the lobster roll. It was a generous portion, but tasted sort of mushy as if it was frozen, and then cooked. My husband also had the blackened mahi he enjoyed that. The service after we ordered was slow, and the waiter did seem to disappear, even though the restaurant was absolutely not crowded. I think there are other places on Key Largo, which are better and less expensive.

    Smoked Fish Spread

    We came here for lunch as a group of 4. We weren't very hungry so we ordered a bunch of appetizers. We ordered the smoked fish dip, the fried calamari, the conch fritters, and the ceviche. The ceviche was good. We finished it off easily. The smoked fish dip was a very large serving with a lot of sides- cucumber, olives, crackers, celery, capers, tomatoes, onions and a chopped pepperoncini. The fish dip was very thick and creamy. We had some leftover. The calamari was good but we had a lot leftover. The conch fritters were not very good. Very tough conch. We had leftovers. The best thing about the restaurant is the location and the views. We walked outside along the water after lunch. It was very enjoyable. There are comfy chairs by the water where you can eat and drink. There are docks where you can dock your boat. They will prepare your catch for you. I saw a stage where they would have live music. We also enjoyed their gift shop and bought a few items. I would return and try some of the other menu items and the drinks. I'd sit outside next time. Parking lot is actually across the street.

    This restaurant offers an amazing atmosphere with incredible views from its outdoor seating. We were seated right away and we also had our waitress at our table right to take our drink orders and our food orders when we were ready and everything came out quickly. We had drinks and beers. The beers were served in a glass but they were not cold as I would prefer a beer to be. They had a good variety of choices on their menu. We ordered a mahi fish sandwich, mahi tacos and a seafood basket and shared their fish dip. The food was ok, nothing amazing. I thought it was over cooked and over fried. They had lizards running all over the patio that surprisingly are not afraid of people and are looking for food to fall from the tables. We were so entertained by this. They reminded me of seagulls waiting for food. Overall they have a great atmosphere. It is a relaxing place to sit outdoors and to enjoy family and friends. The noise level was perfect and they have a very friendly staff.

    If you come by boat, you must follow the channel by the mangroves.  Super shallow here.

    Attended an event here last night at the "Turtle Club". That is upstairs in a separate area/building and not the main restaurant. Great views from here of the ocean! Bar service was great! The had the normal servers bring endless trays of tasty appetizers around. Only thing lacking were any seats. They literally provided one table and 8 chairs, along with three high tops. I'd guess around 60 people attended. I had not been here in years and was glad I went. I definitely like the physical improvements to the Turtle Club.

    Key lime pie

    The cheeseburger is ok, but the one from The Catch Restaurant and Bar is better. The lobster roll is not bad, just a bit salty. Nice ocean view sitting outside, with live music playing on the side. No reservations needed.

    Mediterranean salad, added blackened chicken

    We love Snapper's!! A Key Largo "Must go to"! They typically do a Bloody Mary bar (during busy season) but we're here in October and they didn't have the whole bar. Still, we ordered bloody Mary's and they were very good! I LOVE the Mediterranean salad with added blackened chicken. The citrus dressing is delicious. But the dish we'd recommend you must try is the hog fish. You can only get it in certain areas, it's rare to see it on a menu (non existent in Ohio) and it's so good! And all the delicious food and drinks pair perfectly with a lovely ocean view.

    Bacon wrapped scallops - yummy!

    We enjoyed our third visit this month! Last two visits they were out of their fantastic key lime pie, but managed to get a slice this visit-honestly the best we've had in the keys. We also enjoyed oysters on the half shell, bacon wrapped scallops appetizer (four nice size scallops) and a grilled Mahi sandwich with fries (you can have the fish prepared as you like). The service was great and the view of the ocean beautiful. Overall my favorite restaurant in the Key Largo Islamorada area.

    Peel & Eat Shrimp and hush puppies

    Good food, decent prices for the experience, and service was great. We came on a Sunday and got a seat outside after a short wait. There was hardly anyone dining inside as it was a really nice day out and the inside vibe does not even compare to sitting outside so I definitely recommend coming on a nice day. I really liked the variety of food options on the menu and they were all reasonably priced. Our food was really fresh and tasty. And our service was quick but not rushed. A great option of somewhere to stop if you are driving through or visiting key largo!

    Elite modern review:…read more Very modern and trendy place to be. Perfect for young adults and college crowds looking to have a great time. The music was on point, creating an energetic vibe all night. The bar setup was amazing, fast service and great drinks. Overall, a fun atmosphere with good energy, stylish crowd, and a place I would definitely come back to.

It is a little tricky to find it, once you find the parking lot, it is super confusing as to where you enter. There are two floors and multiple doors. Finally someone directed us up the stairs and to the back of the building. We were greeted and given menus fairly quickly, but it took an extraordinarily long time to get our food that day. The hollandaise sauce was atypical as it tasted like there was cheese in it. The smoked salmon on a bagel tasted okay, but fell apart when it was picked up. The breakfast burrito lacked a lot of flavor.The blueberry pancake, although slightly overcooked, was actually very good. The bacon and fried potatoes were not crisp, as I prefer them. So if you like crispy bacon and fried potatoes, ask for that when placing your order. The windows and floors are dirty and the women's bathroom had a round hole with a dirty sock stuck in it on the floor. I actually tripped over it. And the bathroom could have been much cleaner. With a few improvements, Sharkeys could be more appealing to tourists going through and visiting the Keys.
