Sparky’s Landing

I would advise future patrons to stay away due to dishonest business practices. Bait and switch on my bill. The food was good, but food is also good at the numerous four-​star Unilocal review restaurants within a 5 mile radius. Go elsewhere.
I ordered a $ 14 seared tuna entrée, but showed up as $ 26 on the bill. When I inquired with the waiter, the manager came over. The manager admitted the waiter had made the mistake of serving me a different tuna entrée that was twice the size of the one I ordered, and hence twice the price. He claimed he could not justify any adjustments to the bill because I was served the more expensive entrée (after all, he claims I got twice the amount of food). I showed him the box with half of my food still left over (I purposely did not order the larger entrée because I can’t eat it all), but the manager didn’t care. He said it’s not like he can take back the uneaten half of the entrée, but will talk to the waiter because the waiter made the mistake due to being fairly new.
I would not recommend anyone to support a business that admits to making a mistake, but then makes the customer pay for that mistake. How convenient for them to «accidentally» serve a more expensive item and then force the customer to pay for it.

The food was good. Our visit was a 3 star visit due to what appeared to be poor restaurant management. After we were seated, we were treated by our waiter. After giving him our order, we hardly saw him. It appeared that the table he was waiting on were scattered throughout the patio. We needed up having to get up to go ask other staff for things we needed.
We also observed another party of 2 who were seated in the corner table, but nobody greeted them for over 20 minutes, so the guests had to get up, and grab another staff member to request they be moved to a different table.
I’m not out to bash this restaurant, but it seems basic restaurant management is not a strength of this establishment. How about assigning wait staff zones to cover, instead of a rotation of tables. Also, if a waiter picks up a larger party, their zone should be flexed to other wait staff so tables aren’t forgotten about.

Absolutely amazing! Our family found this place on Unilocal while driving through the keys and decided to stop. It’s on the left, not the right (as google maps says) and has a great view!
The food is amazing! I ordered a burger with bacon and cheese and it was large and extremely good. I wish I took a picture. My mom ordered a burger and she loved it as well. My sisters ordered fish tacos and they raved endlessly about how great they were. My dad had a fish sandwich and the gumbo. He too loved everything he ate.
Lastly, the key lime pie. If you do not try this you are missing out. It was amazing! Best key lime pie ever with homemade pie crust! We all split one because we were full from our delicious entrees but I wish we ordered a few extra to go.
The staff was great and were extremely helpful, especially with my allergies. If I’m ever back in the keys, you can count on me visiting Sparkys.

Happy hour 4−6pm with .30 peel and eat and chicken wings are fantastic! Outdoor dining on the water with heat when needed and flaps that roll up when not needed.
Great group seating and live music.
