We had a lovely evening outside, great waiter and excellent seafood dishes with fresh fish. The key lime pie was outstanding! We would highly recommend this little place, just off Duval but well worth looking for if you want a nice dinner.

We had a great meal at Grunts. The fish was amazing and so too was our caprese salad appetizer with avocado. We've eaten at many restaurants in KW, this time all the positive reviews are correct. Highly recommend this place.

We had dinner at Grunts after watching the sunset. What a beautiful setting. Right near Mallory Square and Duval, and yet quiet and tucked back on Caroline Street. A blues station played over the speakers and just the right volume. I felt as if I was sitting in a friend's backyard patio, until they brought dinner. No neighbor ever cooked... More

Beautiful and delicious food prepared by a local husband and wife team. Clean and approachable seafood. Awesome sides, not just for looking at or pushing around the plate. You MUST order the Truffle Lobster Mac n Cheese! It is THE best lobster mac I've ever had! Try the daily specials.

The lobster mac n cheese is amazing! Had yellow tail snapper out of this world! You should know they only have a beer and wine license but with food that good who freaking cares?!

We're from Tampa and eat at why I would consider pretty fabulous restaurants. But this was THE best meal I've ever had. My husband was even jealous that he didn't get my entree (Jamaican jerk chicken). Great atmosphere too. Live music. Reasonable prices considering the service and caliber of food.

We absolutely loved this place! Beautiful location, and delicious food! We never had hogfish before and it was the best fish we ever had! The waiter was very friendly also! We look forward to dining there again!

First time here and had hog fish and it was the best tasting fish we ever had. We also tried the Mac n cheese with the lobster it was rich but good. We also tried the bread pudding which was melt in your mouth good.

After 5 or 6 trips to KW we tried Grunts, lovely setting , only a block off Duval but very peaceful at night , all brick (spotless) outdoor area with nice chairs /tables and umbrellas (you do not sit on sand or tree roots...like some places and wobbly tables) .The main building houses a bar- no booze just beer and...
