   Nice change from the typical Florida Keys fish dinner.

   A little funky beach type restaurant, but a very good place to enjoy. Colorful place that had good food for a fair price. The service was also quite good.

   BBQ and desserts (coconut flan and coconut cream pie) were awesome. Craft beer selection was just OK, but that's typical in the Keys. Server was excellent. Parking situation was a problem. Despite a confirmed reservation via OpenTable, when we arrived the hosts claimed to have no record of it, showing me a handwritten notebook page with names, none of which were ours. There was a general lack of upon arrival due to lack of English speakers (not simply folks who don't speak English as their first language, I mean folks who spoke no English at all.) The whole operation was a bit of controlled chaos. However, we did a table fairly quickly despite that reservation issue, and the food and server were so good that we will definitely visit again.

   Excellent food and service. Very friendly hostess and door staff. Would recommend. Just what we were looking for in a restaurant in the Keys

   We dined at Porky's and really enjoyed it. We got there for happy hour and had oysters. They were perfectly shucked. Not a even a tiny grain of shell in the 2 dozen we ordered. At $20 a dozen, you can't beat it when they are such top quality. We also had fish sandwiches which were also great. But the oysters may be the best we have ever had.

    We went for breakfast. Had read that they accommodate people with food allergies but our server did not accommodate. My friends said that the food was ok for breakfast.
