Fodor's Review:

For a taste of local culture at a reasonable price, this restaurant, across the street from the Miccosukee Indian Village and overlooking the River of Grass, provides the best variety of food along Tamiami Trail in Everglades territory. A mural depicting American Indian women cooking and men engaged in a powwow and a view of the River of Grass provide atmosphere in this roadside cafeteria setting; servers wear traditional Miccosukee patchwork vests. Favorites are catfish and frogs' legs breaded and deep-fried, Indian fry bread, pumpkin bread, and Indian burgers and tacos, but you'll also find more common fare, such as huge burgers, sandwiches, salads, and dishes from south of the border. Try the Miccosukee Platter ($24.95) for a sampling of local favorites, including gator bites. Breakfast and lunch are served daily.
