Very nice food and friendly service.The atmosphere was exactly what expected for an American restaurant in the keys.The toilet had a bad flush so you had to flush 3-4 times more than a regular toilet.

I'd stop here every trip. People that rate this place low for the reasons they did are probably the same people that'd rate a McDonald's a 5 because the ice cream machine was working. The service was friendly, the food was amazing. The tike fish picatta, the stuffed calamari (what a novel way to stuff it), and the stuffed hogfish were all perfectly cooked and seasoned. The ceviche was cool and refreshing. End it with a nice frozen drink and conversation. Sure, the food doesn't come out in 10 minutes. If my dish came out in 10 minutes I'd be suspect of the care taken to make such a complicated dish. Good food is worth the wait, and here you'll definitely get it.

Love that the majority of this restaurant's guest chooses the outdoor patio as the atmosphere is great and the live music makes it just that much better. The food is awesome to say the least, and both food and bar are reasonably priced. They serve a Grilled Cheese Crab sandwich that has recently been added to the regular menu. We first had it as one of the daily specials, but when we returned, the sandwich had been placed onto the regular menu, which I wouldn't doubt was done by customer requests. The sandwich was so awesome that we've been back two or three times for that specific entree. There were three of us the first time we tried it, and all three of us returned together each time with our mouths watering, all of us knowing we were going to order that same sandwich, and we did! It has yet to disappoint. Although the sandwich, served as an entree and comes with your choice of one side, is plenty big enough to fill you up, don't be surprised if you are tempted to order an extra one for the table to share or one for yourself to take home, as it honestly is just that good!! The Servers are always on top of their game, and seems each of them has the others back always willing to offer their service when and if needed, and happy to so, always with a smile nonetheless. Definitely one of our favorite places to eat and socialize.Rhonda Leigh

We were on our way to Key west and we found Tonio’s Tiki Bar, where we stopped for lunch. Atmosphere was fantastic, everybody was having fun, music was perfect, you felt on holiday right away. It has a great bar, and other tables on the side, very American and tropical at the same time. Good place to stop! Food was ok, service was perfect super kind and fast, ambient was way too cool. Merry Christmas !!!

We we’re staying on Cudjoe Key for a week. Went to Tonio’s for dinner on a Monday night. We had two pastas off the Monday specials menu. We had mussels and littleneck clams for appetizers. Dinner was absolutely amazing!!! We would be here weakly if we lived close. Service was spot on and very attentive considering how busy the place was during our visit. We got an ice cream cookie to go. Tonio’s is highly recommended!

Despite enduring the most horrendous day, driving eight arduous hours from home to Key West, our spirits were lifted by the kindness of one remarkable soul - Ashley. After being turned away by a hotel due to our age, stranded in the Keys with nowhere to stay, Ashley became our beacon of hope. Her kindness and warmth brought tears to our eyes, turning a disastrous day into a memorable one. And the experience didn't stop there; the food was exceptional, with incredibly fresh fish, an inviting ambiance, and live music that elevated the atmosphere to a perfect 10/10. We're grateful for Ashley and the entire team for turning our misfortune into an unforgettable dining experience.

My husband and I went to Tonio’s last night and it was soooo good, we decided to sit by the water and the view was spectacular, Manny was our server and did an excellent job at it!!! The fried grouper and shrimp were delicious) there were a few doggies that would bark every once in a while, but other than that the atmosphere was fun and romantic all at the same time. We loved it!

We came on a Sunday afternoon for an early dinner. The conch fritters were great as were the crab cakes. The potato salad was also a winner. The scallops were a little underdone and the shrimp were a bit overdone. The fries were just warm. All in all good and a decent value. The outside seating by the canal is a plus. The seating does surround a bar so you can get whiffs of cigarettes. The music was mellow and a nice touch. Service was great.

Great spot by the marina. They charge $10 to use their water access. We tried the hogfish for the first time and it was tasty. The Key West pink shrimp was also good. They have a Lobster Reuben that my sister in law tried and said was good. We bought some stone crab from their seafood market to take home for dinner and it was also good. Their desert menu looked good but we were too full.

This is a number #1 seafood restaurant. My wife said she had the best stuffed Hogfish ever. I had the Yellowtail must say it’s the best fish dinner I ever had too. Great spot on the water, excellent staff. Good beer. We ate outside because the weather was perfect in January 2023. We liked it so much we came back for a second dinner during our week stay at the Key West / Sugarloaf Key KOA

We had a great dinner here. The service by Paula was fantastic. We started with the grilled octopus and an order of calamari. For main courses we got the blackened hogfish and the tuna tower (in photos). Sitting at a high top by the bar we were immediately greeted with waters and set up with menus and asked about drinks. We would come back for sure.

Within walking distance where we were staying in Summerland key. This place mean our trip all that much more enjoyabperiod. A big shout out to Manny who's an absolute professional. When it comes to positive attitude and excellent service. he's a real asset to the establishment and a key reason why we have dined there 3 times in our short 5 days stay. . the food is excellent and the service is very prompt and quick. we've not had a bad meal as of yet and do not expect that will change. we enjoyed lobster, clam hog fish grouper and a delicious piece of key lime pie. Just the name of you of the items. We sat inside of the dining room. But enjoyed our time out by the bar area. After our meals and typically live, music is being played and the ladies at the bar are a lot of fun to sit and enjoy a few cocktails.

Ordered shrimp and scallops. The shrimp was butterflied and over cooked. Scallops had no taste and wasn’t fried and over cooked, I ordered fried Hubby had a hamburger that was a frozen burger. The fries weren’t even good. How do you screw up hamburger and Fries? Looked like mostly people hanging out drinking and not eating. Now I know why🙄. Spent $60 for a terrible lunch. There are too many good restaurants in the Keys to eat here.

Awesome pasta night, friendly staff, and a cool vibe. Definitely for a check out we sat outside and enjoyed the water nearby but I saw they have an air conditioned dining area as well if that’s more your style. I took a picture of my plate, shrimp with marinara featuring a good amount of decent size shrimp and a goofy picture of my dad eating just for S’s and gigg’s

Good experience, we'll be back!Nice outdoor dining area with big bar on the water with some swinging tables but it's probably going to be smokey. They also have an inside dining area with a small bar, booths etc.Surprisingly good beer selection at lower prices ($6-7) than I've seen in the Keys. Fancy cocktails are pretty much the same price as other spots ($12).Service was good considering how slammed they were, very friendly and personable wait staff.Mussels in lemon garlic white wine sauce were great, excellent sauce, good meat.Stuffed pepper soup was delicious, really liked it. Clam chowder was good also. Crab cake sandwich and fish sandwich were good, but I would have liked a more interesting bread option. Fries were pretty good too. Shrimp tacos were tasty.We'll definitely be returning!

Good fresh fish and cole slaw, with many choices from fish tacos and grouper sandwiches to lobster bisque and chowder. Paula the waitress was excellent and welcoming and we enjoyed our lunch. Only drawback was the road noise but otherwise a nice Florida experience.

We were very satisfied with the food and service. It was all outdoor seating, great from Covid perspective. We missed the dinner rush and so the food came out quickly. Service was very good as well. Photos are of conch (pronounced konk) fritters, mussels in lemon garlic white wine sauce, chicken linguini, chicken blt, and lobster roll with key lime pie to tie it all together.

We had a great server, attentive and friendly. The food was pretty good with the exception of the clam chowder. Potatoes were undercooked, chowder was watery and clams were scarce. Personally I think progresso soup makes a better clam chowder. With that said, the stuffed mushrooms were delicious and a million times better than red lobster. Expensive for the portion but very very tasty. Hubs had the sloppy joe and devoured it. He said it was delicious. The bang bang shrimp were recommended to us by a patron and they were banging! Huge shrimp, perfectly butterflied, and the sauce was yummy. Had a kick to it, but entirely tolerable. Overall we had a good experience for lunch. Expensive, but it was good.
