About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Kid-friendly
  • Good for special occasions
Angler & Ale, an amazing restaurant where you can grab a waterfront table, dig into some of the Key’s favorite dishes, and wash it down with a frosty cold, fresh-from-the-tap brew or a crafted cocktail. Better yet, bring in your own catch for a hook-and-cook feast prepared by our expert chefs. Great service. Delicious food. Icy-cold beer. Doesn’t get any better than that. Our outdoor seating is non reservable and based on availability at the time of your seating.

    All five of our party were very, very happy with our meals. From appetizers to dinners, the food was hot, fresh, delicious, and it came out quickly. Our waitress was friendly, and the view was awesome. Go check out the tarpon and other fish off the docks below. It is resort expensive, but you won't be disappointed with the food quality here. We will be back for sure.

    This was a great dinner! We sat on the deck overlooking the marina….I’d definitely recommend sitting outside if the weather is nice. Our server, India , was a delight and her recommendations were spot on. The Fisherman’s Pasta was AMAZING! I needed an extra piece of the seared focaccia to absorb the tasty sauce…delicious! We would definitely go back again, and would request India.

    Just not good!! Very disappointed!! I will have to say the lobster appetizer is good. I would go for a drink and an appetizer, and that would be it.

    There is a limited menu and some items are very expensive. The specials were extremely overpriced. Our waitress was terrible. From start to finish. She forgot to get everyone’s drinks, just walked away. Never refilled our waters, and basically just left us. We waited way to long to get our checks. We had to have the manager take them and run our credit cards. I would not recommend this restaurant.

    Didn’t love it - limited menu options and the service was not great. For example, son spilled his water / there were no servers nearby so we cleaned it up ourselves, put the ice into empty bowls (which had not been cleared) and had to hunt a server down to replace our napkins etc. there are so many other good options in the Keys.

    It was very energetic inside so they moved us outside and it was much better. Food is very good especially the snapper.
