This place was recommended to us by the Tarpon Bay Explorers while we were waiting for our boat trip and needed to have some lunch. They explained that the cafe supports the wildlife centre and it is only a few minutes drive away. We had such a great lunch we went back for a second visit. Food included chicken deluxe... More

Nothing special as far as food, atmosphere, service goes. Not bad, just nothing really stands out. Kind of felt like we were not given much attention from the waitress, she did the bare minimum.

It's a tradition in the family to hit Over Easy at least once on a visit to the Islands. Food is innovative, always fresh ingredients, and plenty of it. I ordered their omelet special of the day: shrimp and broccoli. Plenty of shrimp in the omelet, too. I need to remember to ask for only 1 slice of toast because... More

We had a lovely breakfast at the Over Easy (formally called Amy's Place). The menu had a good choice of food, the food was good quality & nicely presented and the service was good. I would recommend this restaurant for a good quality breakfast!

We really like this place and will definitely go back. My only complaint was the potatoes were cold and there wasn't a good waiting area. We went on a Thursday mid-morning and they were on a wait. Only option was to shop while you wait - in oppressive heat and humidity... The food was outstanding as was the service. We... More

Cute little cafe. Feels very "beachy" Would have loved to eat outside. Food was good and the pasta salad was a delicious side dish!

Had a very nice breakfast. Orders included two omelettes, one skillet, pancakes, and French toast. Everyone was pleased with their food - excellent quality and good portions. The restaurant was busy but service was fine and staff was friendly. Would definitely dine here again.

Great menu, lovely food, always busy but worth a visit. A little slow on refilling coffee but otherwise a decent place for breakfast.
