One of the best steakhouses I have ever been to in my life. I got the Delmonico steak which was so flavorful and tender. The garlic butter that they put on top of the steak is awesome. The steaks were huge and very filling. We got a side of the mac and cheese and asparagus. Everything was amazing. The mac and cheese was very rich but good. I cannot rave enough about how amazing my steak was. My table got the center cut filet, shrimp and grits, and chicken and pasta dish. Everyone was incredibly satisfied. If you are in Islamorada for dinner and wish to splurge on a meal that is worth it go here!!! Additionally, the martinis are amazing. Did I mention the steak is amazing?

Do not let the unassuming exterior deceive you - Ziggy and Mad Dog's is a 4-star, high-end steak-house, but without the oppressively-pretentious overtones. Very expensive but great dining experience nonetheless. The menu is limited, but who cares? Locals eat there at least three times a week - that alone speaks volumes about the place. Staff is impeccably-dressed and the service first-rate. I was not terribly hungry at the time, so I had the Double-Bone Pork-Chop and a beer; the chop was AWESOME! Cannot wait to come back and try a steak. Every item on the menu is HUGE - doggy-bags are essential. Menu is a la carte, with all sides @ $8.00 each - but the portions are huge (!!!). Prepare on spending $120 for two @ minimum, but definitely worth it. I dined solo @ the bar, but the locals chatted with me as if I had been a regular diner@ the restaurant - how cool is that? So go if you love eating huge quantities of massive portions of select meats and seafood - but I recommend that you eat at a leisurely pace (which is encouraged) and just take your leftovers home). Go early or make reservations, though - the place fills up quickly.
Fine dining. Late dinner so we skipped appetizers. Dinners were great. The libations from the bar were citified! My husband asked for an unusual drink & they had it. Loved it!
When we walked in the door, we were pleasantly surprised! What a great little place, definitely a favorite. Food is great, service even better. Worth every single penny.
The service was unbelievable ask for Jennifer to wait on you.
The filet was cooked perfectly and the pistachio creamed spinach is amazing! Also great friendly service
The Best in the Keys. As a "local" I can attest to the consistent quality of this restaurant. We love it and dine there often. John is wonderful and anxious to meet your every need.
My favorites? The Veal Chop is the best I have ever had...any of the steaks are fabulous and cooked perfectly to order...
The Maddog salad is not to be missed.
What I dream about??? the Augratin potatoes
Yes it is expensive...yes everything is ala carte...but wow is it good
The best steak place in the mid-upper Keys. Top flight. Prices are in line with any top steak houses in America.
We rated it as liked it, but be aware--the food is good but not outstanding and prices are outrageous. It's all a la carte, even for sauces. On the other hand, portions are large enough to share. One appetizer , one entree and one side are enough for two people.
Exceptional. This place is a wonder. It's the best service in the keys. A quaint little place that is formal but friendly. We did spend quite a bit of money but also enjoyed everything so much we just kept on ordering.
We visited the restaurant on the last evening of our vacation in the US… and it was the best choice ever. I love to eat and I can say : this meal was the best I ever had ! Even if it was a kinda pricey evening - it was totally worth the experience we had eating this delicious food! Greetings to the chef 👨🏻🍳 ❤️ Also the waitress was super kind to us. If we will come back to the US we would love to eat there again .
The food was outstanding and our server, Leslie was top notch. From the very beginning of our meal to the end, it was perfect. I was very pleasantly surprised at how delicious the filet mignon was. My husband loved the crab meat stuffed fish dish he ordered. The truffle Mac and Cheese side was fantastic and a very large serving. The key lime pie and the pistachio ice cream dessert was also delicious.
Very intimate place. The entrées and sides were amazing and cooked to perfection. The dessert (creme Brulee) was OK. I think I would try a different dessert next time. The service made the whole experience an overall special night.
What a hidden gem. From the street, it looks bad. However, from the moment you walk into the restaurant, wow. They don't do a lot of steak in the Keys. Search this place out if you want a fantastic steak with awesome seafood.
Loved it!
Great food.
Great staff.
Great indoor dining area.
Great music.
Roadside curb appeal made this place "not" our first choice. However, it ended up being a serendipitous find that we ended up loving.
Menu items seemed pricey at first sight, but at first bite, I felt the prices were a very good deal.
Tremendous place.
(Meal Prices about $65/person)
Main dishes range from about $30-$65, and appetizers are around $15

Delmonico steak 10/10
French Martini 10/10
Everything, we had was delicious!!!!
We stumbled upon this place last year and fell in love, I kept thinking about their lobster Mac and cheese !! Needless to say, the food is amazing and well worth the price. There are plenty of options anyone will enjoy. For starters we had Yuka balls, filled with a creamy cheese and fried to perfection. My fiancé got the ahi Tuna and I had the lobster Mac ! The service is professional and the environment is warming. Stop in !!

for years. we have had our favorite go to places and never got past them. this trip all were closed so we decided to try ziggie and mad dogs. unbelievably awesome! holy cow, the servings were huge, the meals so so fantastic, and our server ashley was truly the best ever! worth every dime!
we were never rushed, even with the flow of customers coming, going and waiting. the drinks were healthy also!
for sure our new favorite. sad we passed it for so long!
Really surprised. White table cloth restaurant in the Keys. Excellent food and service. Super catch of day was snapper almandine with garlic onion rings. Others had bone in rib-eye which was really good. General Ben’s Medallions we’re recommended highly. Server was great. Really nice dining experience.
Our first time to Islamorada so picking places to eat was taking chances. Whether it's goods or services, I tend to depend on reviews. After searching several sites, every one put this as the #1 steakhouse. I'm glad we chose it. From being greeted at the door to all who took care of us, nothing but friendly professionals. I did the surf and turf with a Delmonico ribeye and lobster tail. Huge portion of amazing food. Highly recommend!! Leave room if you can for some key lime pie.
