SS Wreck Galley & Grill

Florida Keys


The SS Wreck is a Keys classic, where fisherman types knock back brew and feast on wings. It’s definitely a local haunt, where island politicos like to prattle about the issues (fishing). The food is excellent: it grills one of the best burgers in the Keys, and fires up excellent daily specials.
