Restaurants in the Keys

[Georgie]

I'd like to buy my brother and sister-in-law a gift certificate to a restaurant in the Florida Keys where they'll be vacationing in December. I've never been there, but hopefully some of you have. Any recommendations? Nothing that requires a jacket and tie. Thanks!

I don't think there is a resturant in the keys that requires a jacket and tie, or even closed-toed shoes for that matter.

Louie's backyard is really a great spot on the ocean side of Key West. Another place I really liked was The Hideaway (I'm not exactly sure of the name on this one, migh be Micahel's Hideaway) which is near Islamorada.

I'm sure someone who's more of a local can give you some others, but as a tourist, I returned to these two several times.

Haven't been to it for a looooooooooong time, but understand that the A&B Lobster House is still there and still great.
