Square Grouper Bar and Grill - Cudjoe Key, Florida

Stopped in here around 7 pm on a Thursday. Come hungry. Seated right away. Great ambience. Place was busy. Service was amazing as was the food. We have been in the area for a month and this is the best meal hands down. Try the grouper platter and the shrimp platter. We also had fried mozzarella and Mexican street corn dip with chips. All was great. The brownie was great as well.

Had "linner" here today. Glad we stopped. Jen, our server, was beyond fabulous & should train other servers & get a raise! The atmosphere was nicer than we expected & the food was delicious. Hubby had the square grouper sandwich & I had the shrimp burger. Both were very good & the shrimp burger had a nice spice kick. Their food presentations were very nice, even the peanut butter pie slice was presented nicely. We noticed there were alot of "regulars" dining that the staff knew, always a good sign.
Would go back in the future.

The moment you walk in the door, you know this is going to be good food. Server was very friendly and efficient. I've had grouper all over the state as a Florida native. This was easily one of the top 3. The bun was fresh and the onion strings well. All house made. The key lime tartar I could drink, it was so good, but the sandwich didn't even need it. Which is why they give it you on the side. I got it blackened but they said they can do it amy way you'd like. I'll go out of my way to come back for this grouper.

After a four hour drive from Boca towards key west, we were looking for an interesting roadside seafood joint to hit for dinner before getting to key west. Reviews guided us here and it did not disappoint. After about a 30 minute wait, we enjoyed the fried mozzarella appetizer, dinner salads, fish of the day (mahi, grouper) and fish stew. I had the small fish stew portion and it was plenty, so the larger size can feed 2 people - plus the red curry sauce was delicious. It’s a good stop on your way to key west.

We had the conch appetizer and the coconut shrimp appetizer. Both were excellent as was the Asian salad with Wahoo fish added. Never had Wahoo fish before but it is really good. The conch (pronounced conk!) was MUCH better than the conch fritter we tried in Key West. The restaurant has great energy. I've only given a 5 star review once so consider this a 4 star review with an asterisk!

We stopped at the Square Grouper restaurant in Cudjoe key on our way back from Key West. It's the first time we tried it, and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent, the bread pudding dessert was the best! Gaby's service was suberb, and the atmosphere was very nice. It was great to find out that they also have two more, one in Islamorada and another in Key West 😋😋😋

We had an almond-crusted grouper dish and the daily special of swordfish. I was all delicious. Just be sure to register online for their waitlist. It’s a busy place!!

We sat down right away.. waited close to 10 minutes to see a waiter for any interaction. Food overall was good but would not get the Ahi Tuna avocado eggs rolls again. A lot of breading and pockets of hot grease. Stick to the straight sesame seared tuna. Photos do justice to show the differences. Thanks for hosting lovely night. Key lime pie was above average for the majority of the keys

Dinner here was excellent. We had the Flash Fried Conch with Ponzu and Wasabi drizzle, and that was on point. It had a very good taste, it was crispy and the drizzle added a touch of flare. My friend had the Seared Sesame Encrusted Tuna. It was cooked perfectly, melted in your mouth. I had the Asian Marinated Skirt Steak with Jasmine Rice and Wonton Crisps. The asian sauce was delicious, and the steak was also cooked perfectly. We got Key Lime pies to go, but didn't get a picture. They were tangy and good also. Our waiter was friendly, knowledgeable, and prompt. We did have to wait to be seated, the place was packed, but it was well worth the wait in my opinion.

Delightful local joint 😉😁

Very lucky to rent a house in this neighborhood! Great deals on lunches as well.

Love the seafood stew.
