Rusty Pelican

3201 Rickenbacker Causeway, Key Biscayne, FL 33149
(305) 361-3818
The once rusty Rusty Pelican has seen a multi-million dollar remodeling and redesign. The new look includes padded booths, muted colors, dark blonde woods, glass enclosures, and a waterfall at the entrance. From the photos it looks like a Marriott that, um, needs a remodeling. But what you don't see in the photos is the water view, always Rusty's main asset. And sitting outdoors on the deck while eating fine seafood can't be beat -- especially now that the seafood is actually fine. The food is what really needed a refocus even more than the decor, and chef Michael Gilligan has come in to do the job. Big improvement, and why we now love dining outdoors here.
