Formerly Hemingway's Key West Grille, this newly swankified place still has a cozy brick front room, and a shady open-air patio available during pleasant weather.

Overpriced seafood.

by gomatsy123 at Citysearch

We ate there January 2009, and it was less than adequate. The ribs were "reheated" from the night before, the seafood was "old, grey and certainly not fresh." The wine list was so overpriced that we opted for iced tea instead.....we should have gotten a clue when we walked in at 12noon to an EMPTY restaurant. The fireplace was nice but certainly not worth "$60- for- two -nice !" You're better off going to the grocery and cooking your own seafood !

Best seafood

by Destiny013 at Citysearch

I have been to this place twice so far.

Both times the food was awesome, the seating was prompt (surprising for how busy they are usually),

the waiter and waitress were both fantastic, the food was brought out very fast, and it was a cozy layed back environment.

I absolutely loved each visit to this place!

There were only two downsides.

The first, we ordered two entree's and one appetizer, and ended up hungry still, and that costed a little over a hundred dollars. (only a problem on the second experience)

and the second problem, was the noise. which is only the restaurant's fault for being so excellent, that every one wanted to be there!

But all in all, I very much enjoyed each visit, and there are negatives to be expected every where, the good places just have less.

Therefore I am entirely satisfied with Max Gill and Grill, though I never made it there when it was hemingway's, so I cannot give a before and after comment.

Also the ribs were amazing!

  • Pros: Good food, service, people, and environment
  • Cons: The second visit, we were given small portions for a lot of $$$
