Dry Rocks Reviews
Excellent shrimp and mahi tacos. And the key lime pie was divine. Beautiful setting. Sushi looked amazing, as well as the burgers.
I enjoyed eating dinner here during my stay at Baker's Cay Resort especially because of the atmosphere and vibe. Dry Rocks is located next to the beach. The cool part: they have swings that you can eat on while watching the water. They have a second menu with flatbreads and pizzas. I ordered the mahi which came with veggies and fingerling potatoes. It was good but not the best fish I've had in the Keys.
The service was great, very attentive and constantly checking up on us. During the day, the sun will burn you alive so take a hat or sunscreen to avoid getting burnt, but during 5pm and on, the view is incredible! Great music to give the mood to the ambiance, and the lighting and decor is great. They always give complimentary champagne to toast to the beautiful sunset. We ordered their whole fried fish of the day, their churrasco and the cilantro lime shrimp. We loved the whole fish, very delicious and crunchy. The cilantro lime shrimp bowl, is good, ALOT is served so best to share if you are not too famished. The churrasco was soft and good, but the portion is very small for the price. The beans were plain, and the rice was good. Oh and the yuca was also delicious. Brooooo but them Parmesan truffle fries thoooo.... Uff!!! They bring it as a side order and wow I was in love!!!!!!! We finished it all off with the churros, and they were a bit bland. It did not have that wow churro flavor we've tried before. We paired it with vanilla ice cream and it was better.
The ambiance is amazing! This place has a view of the beach from inside and outside. The outside dining has swing chairs and large couches and even some swinging egg chairs. I ordered the taqueria salad and added chicken. I loved that the meat was seasoned and not just cold cut up chicken they added like many other places so when you add meat to a salad. My husband and daughter ordered the chimichurri skirt steak. I took a bit and it was absolutely amazing. Each of us ordered a cocktail. I had the Pina colada and it was pleasantly sweet without being overbearingly sweet and it had just the right amount of rum for the kick. For dessert, we ordered the key lime pie. It was delicious, but a bit tiny for the price. Service was okay, responsive. I'd definitely come again.
Stayed here for two nights and decided to try Dry Rocks out for dinner. The food came out very quickly! Highly recommend the churrasco and fish tacos. Great food and great ambiance.
