This is definitely a restaurant that caters to the atmosphere and less on ths food. Unfortunately we weren't thrilled about any of our meal from the lobster mac and cheese (the smoked gouda is overbearing) to our entrees. Atmosphere and service is great but not a restaurant we'd go to again.

We were driving down to key west and stopped for dinner. Every dish was better than the next . We cannot wait until the Square Grouper opens in key west.

We had an amazing experience! The appetizers were absolutely delicious, the best martinis, and the service was top-notch. Our waitress was very attentive and made excellent recommendations. The waiters brought out our food quickly and we did not have to sit waiting on anything. The ambience was perfect to celebrate my 50th birthday. We will see you all back in October.

Matthew gave us amazing service! Every staff member had an eye out for every table. Never had a dirty dish on our table for too long, cocktails and water were never empty. Cocktails tasted fresh well made. You have to try their oyster Rockefeller! They also have any sauce you can think of freshly made to your liking! Definitely worth the drive from homestead and will be back again!

Ok I usually don't do this but I had the pull pork sandwich today and it was perfect!! This was truly a well balanced sandwich! The pork was cooked perfectly and had the right amount of smoke! Further more the slaw on this was not over powering but added the right amount of texture. Taken in-mind the BBQ sauce was a vinegar base so if you like sweet stick to a candy bar! The slaw was vinegar based and was well balanced!!! The first bite was like heaven! The bun was perfect and the sandwich stayed together perfectly! No mess and I had to fight my other half just to finish it!!! Kudos to the chef "Georgia Boy" on this well balanced masterpiece!!!!

My main course was the Almond Encrusted Grouper ($48). The grouper was overcooked, it came with mashed sweet potatoes that were too sweet for my taste. Not worth the price at all.The service and the atmosphere are very good. We had Calamari and Oysters Rockefeller to start, both delicious. I would go back but just order appetizers or small plates. The drinks were very good!

If our table of 4 could give 10 stars we would. Especially for our server Brook. We showed up at 12:30 this afternoon then promptly seated. Brook added a joyful vibe and outstanding hospitality by making sure we had waters filled and our libations fresh without waiting. She was quick and always available even if we didn’t know we needed her lol. Her smile and genuine accolades for her coworkers, managers and venue made the experience that much more enjoyable. The entire staff pitches in and is knowledgeable about the menu and specials. There’s an efficient system going on at this establishment that a lot of companies could learn from and not just restaurants. The food was hands down perfect. Just the right size portions and the tastiest I’ve had in a long time. Less salt and butter and a lot of fresh herbs and spices keep you from feeling bloated. All and all a very delicious and joyful experience. Prices are worth every penny and not exorbitant. We will be back. We were very comfortable

Husband and I stopped in on our way to Key West more for some funny shirts, but ended up eating lunch here and it was so good! 3 years in a row coming to the keys from Sarasota and this restaurant had the best food we’ve had. Husband got the filet sliders, I got blackened grouper tacos and a Bloody Mary. He loved his, I loved mine, and we both said it was the best Bloody Mary we’ve ever had! Highly recommended!!! Will be back!

I will visit this place again the next time I am in Islamorada and try out the first floor restaurant. The food we had on the third floor was nothing to rave about- but the service was OUTSTANDING. We did have oysters and I personally felt they were really good, but out ceviche (part of specialty menu) was a tiny portion for the whopping $27 we paid. The ambiance was 5/5 and honestly I am excited to go back just to test it out and be treated so nicely by their staff!

We waited 1/2 hour for a table off season and it was well worth it. Our server Katie was excellent, the drinks were good and the food fabulous. Started with fried conch and calamari both were prepared well. The lobster mac has plenty of big chunks of lobster. The scallops were great and I would go back just for the sweet potato hash browns with pork belly.

SO GOOD. EXCEPTIONALLY TASTY AND FUN. We consider ourselves to be in the "Fish Snob" category, and this place delivers on ALL the goods. Fresh, very fresh, tasty fish options and preparations. Excellent appetizers, tasty craft-made fresh cocktails, and excellent service. The entire wait staff that tended to our table was exceptional. And the desert menu options, also very sweet!! The vibe is upbeat, feels very "Islamorada Chic" and is exactly the type of place that both locals and visitors can be happy about. It is not inexpensIve, but it is still a great value for the entire dining experience. Lunch is amazing too.The atmosphere is perfect, and with a great interior design, and the outdoor views of the marina inlet bring the Islamorada vibe to each table. Don't forget to enjoy the upstairs views also. Thanks Square Grouper, you make Islamorada proud.

Out on the boat, called the reception desk to see if they weee open. Dove all the way over parked the boat walked inside eight minutes after they closed and said they couldn’t service us for lunch. In this day and age, you would think that they would hire competent people to let them know that we’re closing soon. Spoke with the manager, said that our policy and walked away as an establishment so much energy into remodeling and making a higher quality staff that’s constantly losing business. The marina manager couldn’t apologize enough! Sad when locals actually write reviews on places that they were happy to see you doing well

The Square Grouper was my favorite dining experience of my trip to the Keys. The space is clean and decorative, without falling into every tired Florida Keys cliché than can tend to dominate other places. The table service was really on point. Great water service, speedy food delivery, really informative server, throrough table clearing. We sat on the patio and loved the view of the marina. All the food was great, the key lime pie was the standout. I'm a restaurant owner myself, and was really impressed by what they're doing here! Would definitely return.

You can dine indoor our outdoor and still have a great view. Our waitress was phenomenal! So attentive and funny. The food was phenomenal! We had their appetizer special of the night which was bang bang shrimp and it was the best I’ve ever had. The flash fried conch is another MUST. I had the seafood combo key lime pasta and it was chefs kiss. Lastly, the Tahitian Ice cream is also a must! (even if you’re full.. and trust me you will be. Make room for the Tahitian ice cream!)
