Key West seafood restaurant in the heart of old town on Petronia. The menu is kept small so that everything is nice and fresh for you. Yellowtail snapper, fish of the day, Key West pink shrimp, and seafood medley highlight the menu. Deviled Eggs topped with Scallops, Shrimp Mango Toast and Crispy Pork Belly Croustinis tantalize the pallet. Beef stroganoff made with certified black angus beef is a favorite. Relaxing, unpretentious, and romantic. Seating is very limited. 24 Hour Cancellation window. For the consideration of our guests, we do not accept parties over the size of six (6). We offer a 6 pm and an 8 pm seating. BEER AND WINE AVAILABLE. No Children's menu available.

Long before there was a boardwalk, friends Alonzo Cothron & Berlin Felton’s original establishment was a fish house. Boats would pull up right outside and throw the fish straight in!We’ve changed a little since then, but the most important thing remains the same - guests can still kick back and experience the freshest, locally caught seafood in one hand, a cold beverage in the other, soak in the view, and watch the world go by.

Due to mostly hard surfaces, the main dining area is very loud. Now, the food is another story. The food, both my and my wife’s, was spectacular and so was the service. Good drinks and the pours were not stingy.

As always, we had an excellent meal. Drinks at the bar then dinner outside so we can hear the music across the street. We had the eggplant rollatini and linguine in white clam sauce! Delish!

Group of 9 on Monday, Nov 18th. We were seated promptly at our table that was set and waiting for us. The wine list is impressive, and all drinks arrived quickly. Food orders were taken, and everyone complimented our choice of restaurant (4 of our group have eaten there previously). Overall, everything was perfect, and will definitely return on our next visit to Key West.
