Dinner on a Private Island: Lobster, Lanterns, & Love in the Keys
From the moment they were handed a chilled water and launched across shimmering blue, the tone was set: this was no ordinary dinner. Perched under palm shadows and tiki-torch glow, the Islander Grill blends full-sensory romance with island luxury.
Highlights included:
Butter-poached Florida lobster with citrus heirloom tomatoes
Mango-salsa-topped fish tacos
Filet mignon or New York strip with truffle mashed potatoes
Vegetarian Parmesan risotto
Plantain chips with avocado crema & conch fritters with lime aioli
Passion fruit panna cotta and house-made Key lime pie—desserts that whisper nostalgia
Why this wasn’t just a meal:
Private island, no crowds.
Attentive service, with staff who know your name.
Dine beneath stars, beside palms, by sea breeze.
