Took a boat from Pine Island and went to the restaurant for lunch on 8/12. Shrimp salad was excellent. Party of 8 ladies who have been friends since high school received awesome service. Our server Rebecca was outstanding. She even took time to take a few group pictures for us. Management was helpful as well and very attentive. Thank you Rebecca for such a great day.
Absolutely LOVE this place! Beautiful views, great drinks, wonderful staff, fabulous food and a terrific little marina. A great escape if you actually like to “unplug” and are able to enjoy what a private island has to offer. Romantic. quiet and gorgeously natural.
During the last week of June and the first week of July we visited Cabbage Key on numerous occasions. Taking each visit different guests from Europe and other parts of the US. On each trip we were a minimum of 10 people and the service, welcome and food were worth out doubt perfect! Clam chowder is awesome, shrimp salad, hamburger, chicken sandwich all superb – and the rice and beans always a treat!!! Our guests all loved it. Big thanks to Marlene,Dorothy and Stella and of course everyone else on the island. Also mention for Jeff and Joe who always ensure us a safe berth. A must visit if you can – see you soon Jeremy and Sue … MY Hillo
After a long haul run around Pine Island from Matlacha, we approached the calm waters and slower speed of Cabbage Key. We idled past boats and slips, and kedged the personal water crafts into the small sandy-grassy beach. Walking up the hill, we met the tortoise the children were feeding. The three of us sat at an outdoor concrete mosaic topped table. A cheery server, Kaite S, welcomed us quickly. In but a short time, the young lady-with energy abounding-delivering the famed ‘cabbage creeper.’ The slushy, sweetness was just the perfect cocktail to sip under the shade of the table umbrella … Our orders arrived; 2 cheeseburgers and a grilled fish atop greens salad. My husband and niece raved about ‘the most delicious’ hamburgers EVER. My fish was also delicious. Food proved worthy of the adventure! Cabbage key was a food oasis in the water. We ended our lunch with 2 desserts, a typical key lime pie, and a chocolate-carpel-sweet-frozen-yummy thing. We rolled down the hill, after all that food, to the t shirt shop for a souvenir (great stocking stuffers) , before the water ride back. We are looking forward to returning, hoping Katie S. will be there, too.
