We were coming back from Key West and was looking for a place to stop and eat that wasn't too crowded and I guess we planned our stop at the right time because we were seated right away. They had their Mother's Day Brunch going on and we were not disappointed, food was delicious and the staff was going nonstop... More

Hubby and I stopped here for a late lunch on our way back to Miami. What a wonderful find! Began with the conch chowder, which was tasty and loaded with quality ingredients. The biggest surprise was to find Beef on Weck on the menu. If you're not familiar with it, it is a Buffalo, NY staple. This sandwich is comprised... More

I've been visiting the keys for almost 2 decades and I only recently was referred to the green turtle inn (was actually referred there by a sweet waitress at another local restaurant). To say the breakfast quality and taste were outstanding would be an understatement. A must try if visiting the keys!!! Can't wait to go back!!

From the name and the outside you would not expect the gourmet restaurant you find inside. Great drinks from the bartender James, great food as well. Would recommend to anyone wanting a great meal.

They really try to experiment with different foods. Unfortunately everything was tasteless. The best dish was the tater tots, which you have to ask for. Onion crusted snapper, fish good, everything else tasteless. Salmon tartare was cubes of salmon with a little sauce on the side, also tasteless. Stuffed artichokes...terrible... Ordered the special, lobster over some kind of pasta, had... More

My husband and I stopped here for a late dinner. We were seated quickly. Restaurant inside looked very nice. We had an odd table out back on an enclosed type porch with no music playing out there. It was very quiet. The food was delicious though! I had the butternut squash stuffed tortelloni and I loved it, I want some... More

After spending a week in Marathon, we were leaving the Keys when we discovered The Green Turtle Inn and decided to stop for breakfast. While this place is smack on the main highway, it does have a nice feeling and great atmosphere. But most of all they have great food. The French Toast is outstanding. The egg dishes were equally...
