A fun old time Florida bar and restaurant . Some might call this a dive bar but the food is great and the staff is friendly . I am becoming a regular.

JR's Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie is TO DIE FOR! I would upload a picture of it but I was too busy inhaling it!

The Cuban Sandwich is one of the best. Awesome Black Beans and yellow rice . They put fresh cilantro on the beans, so if it's not your thing, ask them to keep it off
