Green Turtle Inn

Fodor's Review:

This landmark dating back to 1928 is a slice of Florida Keys history. Period photographs decorate the wood-paneled walls. Breakfast and lunch options include surprises like coconut French toast and yellowfin tuna tartare. Award-winning chef Andy Niedenthal relies heavily on continental classics tossed with a few Latin touches for his dinner menu. Favorites include turtle chowder (don't gasp; it's made from farm-raised freshwater turtles), churrasco steak with yucca hash, and rum-glazed duck with sweet plantain mash. Naturally, there's a Turtle Sundae on the dessert menu. The chef uses organic produce wherever possible.
