Customer Reviews
What can I say, we came here for dinner two nights in a row because the first evening completely blew us away. The spare ribs were absolutely insane: crispy on the outside, unbelievably juicy and tender on the inside. Pure perfection. The French fries were spot on, and the appetizer bites were incredibly delicious, served with amazing homemade dipping sauces. Dessert didn’t even fit anymore, that’s how good and filling everything was. On the second night, I had the seafood pasta, and wow… just wow. A true dream dish. The sauce was perfectly balanced, rich, and full of flavor, unique and absolutely unforgettable. The service was just as great: friendly, fast, warm, and genuinely welcoming. We felt completely taken care of from start to finish. And a special highlight: the live band playing on Sunday night. They created such a wonderful atmosphere and entertained us beautifully. We honestly can’t wait to come back, for the music, the food, and the whole amazing experience.
Love this place so much!! It’s my fiancé’s and i’s go-to spot in the Keys and we’ve seriously never had a bad experience. The vibe is perfect whether we’re stopping midweek to sit at the bar or coming at sunset on the boat for apps on the patio (our fav) We’ve been coming for so long that we recognize the team when we come in, which makes the service even better! Our server Isabel is the best and GM Emily is always such a great face to see. They truly make you feel taken care of every time! And the FOOD!!! You honestly cannot go wrong with anything. My personal fav app is the mussels in white wine but highly recommend the shrimp/cargot, brussels sprouts too And please try the key lime pie!!! I swear it’s the best we’ve had in the Keys and I compare every single one to it. Could not recommend this place more, we’ve put so many people onto this spot and nothing else compares!
Very nice place in Key Largo to enjoy with your family and have a great time. The outdoor seating is excellent, and the live music or DJ adds a really nice touch. The food is quite good, though a bit on the expensive side compared with similar restaurants in the area. What truly makes this spot stand out is the incredible ocean view, easily one of the best in all of Key Largo. Watching the sunset at Sundowners is an experience you absolutely shouldn’t miss.
