Conveniently located right on Tamiami Trail close to the exit for Everglades City, this looks like something out of a movie set. Besides the usual Everglades fare — gator, frog legs, crab, and fish — there are hot dogs and burgers for the kids and some amazing key lime and peanut butter pie. Open most days from 10 to 5 (call ahead to make sure), Joanie’s hosts live country musicians.
