Love Chef Michaels. So much so, that we ate there 3 nights in a row. Fantastic menu but you must try the Lion fish. Delicious and you are helping eliminate this threat to the reefs.- Gianna NebbiaNovember 10, 2019Best dining experience in the keys is at the bar at Chef Michaels. Dave keeps the wine and conversation flowing. The food is impeccable.
Bel RagayJuly 7, 2013What a great little quaint resto in islamorada! Try the clam appetizer and the mahi mahi in Thai coconut sauce with shrimp.. really delicious!
