June 06, 2025Overhyped and Overpriced: Disappointing Experience at Pilot House
I stopped by Pilot House with high expectations, given its reputation and feature on Diners, Drive-ins & Dives. Unfortunately, our experience was a letdown. The service was slow, and our server seemed overwhelmed, even though the restaurant wasn't particularly busy. The menu read well, but the execution was lacking. I ordered the Harvey Fish Sandwich, which was overly breaded and lacked flavor. My companion's prime rib was tough and tasted more like roast beef than prime rib. The live music was loud and made conversation difficult. The view of the marina was lovely, but not enough to make up for the subpar food and service. With so many other great options in the Keys, I wouldn't recommend Pilot House to anyone looking for a quality dining experience.
