The Attentive Traveler – Restaurant Review – Chef Michaels – Islamorada, Florida – January 2023

Jackie and I were able to try a new restaurant during our time in the keys – Chef Michaels.

With the motto “Peace, Love and Hogfish,” Chef Michael’s is the place to go for fresh fish cooked to perfection.

This cozy restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating with upscale Keysy decor. The walls are full of paintings and wood sculptures by local artists.

Chef Michael has a close relationship with the Florida Keys fishermen and usually knows the source, name of the captain and the way each fish was caught. In addition to hogfish, he offers a daily selection of seafood that you may not see on other menus such as tilefish, tripletail and mutton snapper.

We all come to the keys and promise ourselves that we want to eat “more seafood”. I’ve not found a place in the keys that does it better than they serve it at Chef Michaels. Highly recommended.
