What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

"Tacos, Turtles, and Tri-tip" featured Green Turtle Inn, a longtime Islamorada restaurant and bar known for Florida Keys seafood and Southern-inflected cuisine. The business has served the Upper Keys since 1947, building a reputation among travelers, locals, and critics over decades of operation in the fishing village of Islamorada.

The restaurant's own website, greenturtleinn.com, showed a 2026 copyright notice and posted hours during a check in September 2026, listing separate breakfast, lunch, and dinner service along with a "Roadside BBQ" schedule running Tuesday through Sunday. The site also offered online takeout ordering and described Green Turtle Inn as "an Islamorada dining favorite since 1947." The page showed no closure notice, and none of its content referenced dates prior to 2026.
