Wonderful and, most importantly, inexpensive seafood/steakhouse where you can enjoy traditional Keys cuisine, live entertainment while watching a spectacular sunset.
Nature is the diversion at this waterfront spot in Key Largo. There's an indoor dining room, but the dockside option is definitely more fun. Pelicans and egrets swoop in and land on the pilings, but the main event for kids is feeding the fish. Parrotfish, barracuda and tarpon wait for handouts, and there are machines that dispense fish food.
Live music and over-the-top tropical drinks add to the Keys vibe, but the food is the star at Snapper's. On a recent visit, the standouts were jumbo scallops wrapped in apple-wood smoked bacon with a teriyaki glaze, a lobster reuben with grilled lobster substituting for the pastrami and the ``Big Tuna'' sandwich -- yellowfin punched up with artichoke hearts, Kalamata olives and feta cheese.
Burgers, chicken and fish fingers and a shrimp basket suit the younger crowd.
Fresh fish arrives daily at the Snapper's dock -- and so can you. They'll even cook your catch.
