We have never been to 88 Keys and decided to give it a try – three of us had dinner there. I looked at the menu online for the restaurant and they had a good selection. Upon arriving there was only a few customers on a Friday night which was odd, we were seated and given a menu which had only 4 choices for our meal and two of them were for 2. We ordered 2 appetizers and waited for 15 minutes then another table came in and ordered the same appetizers and were served at least 10 minutes ahead of us. The chef came out and knew the party of two that ordered after us. The same thing happened with our meal we had already ordered and their meal came out 10-15 minutes ahead of ours. The table next to us also complained about the piano player singing being to loud and the waitress told him to turn it down – (he wasn’t loud at all). I kept quiet during the meal, I have never had this happen before lucky we had company visiting in town or I would of walked out. Service was very very slow. I will say the food was good but the menu is very limited – Duck, steak for 2 or a seafood dish for 2 , and the other dish I do not remember what it was.
So – to end the review no we will not be coming back due to the waitress snubbing us and showing favoritism to 2 under dressed complainers. Every place in Punta Gorda was full except this place now I can see why. – TO add – there was no Hostess when we came in and the bar area was completely empty we stood there for 5 minutes looking around until one of the two waiters seated us.

I’ve been here many times… and I’m a HUGE suppoter of our Punta Gorda restaurants! When walking in the front door…. the hostess Althea is AMAZING. Like she is made for this job and you better take care of that woman because she makes up for A LOT!!!!! Our service from Cheryl (Sheryl?) was incredibly disappointing. The passive aggressiveness and comments she made were incredibly uncomfortable… without going into detail.
And can one order from the Perch 360 menu that was tucked into our menu or not? I specifically asked the hostess about that menu upon seating to which she replied “you can order anything from wherever you want”. Cheryl had other instructions…. said that those menus should NOT have been included. I tried to speak twice to her, asking her because I had specifically asked the hostess about this… and she completely and totally ignored both instances, talking over me. We allowed her to finish service, as is. Super disappointing.

Quaint ambience with live piano bar. Enjoyed my birthday dinner with exquisite delicacies from the menu with impeccable presentation. Excellent customer service, the manager and the server made sure to provide us with what we desired. Highly recommend.

Our experience at the establishment was consistently negative from the moment we arrived. It took approximately 15 minutes to secure a table, which was unoccupied due to the absence of a hostess. Additionally, it took two hours to receive a salad, and no drink service was provided. As a token of our dissatisfaction, our server offered us stale popcorn. The food served was cold and unappetizing. Regrettably, we were denied our second drinks. When we expressed our concerns to the server, despite the numerous inconveniences we had endured, we were only offered a 10% discount. There was no apology extended for the subpar service, and we have no intention of returning to this establishment.

It’s such a pleasure to dine at 88 Keys, especially now that Chef John Ellis is back in the kitchen creating his famous five-star meals. Every dish he prepares is a reminder of why this restaurant has always stood out — perfectly balanced flavors, artful presentation, and that unmistakable touch of culinary passion.
Adding to the experience is Cheryl, who has been with 88 Keys for years and continues to set the gold standard for exceptional service. She’s attentive without ever being intrusive, always has a warm smile, and remembers every detail that makes each visit special.
Look out Perfect Caper, 88 Keys is setting a new standard in upscale dining.

Terrible dining experience. 1 hour to order a drink and get a glass of water. Poor execution for a 4 course menu. No live music. Very disappointing. Old fashion served in wrong glass. Half of the mussels were shells only. Brussels sprouts were ashes.

This delightful piano bar restaurant is in the wyvern hotel in downtown Punta Gorda. I’ve got a rooftop bar that serves cocktails breakfast and lunch and has a really incredible view of Charlotte Harbor. We had dinner at 88 Keys and I will tell you what I was so impressed the service was top notch. The piano music was amazing and the food was delicious and very aren’t fully prepared and absolutely go back. It’s a special occasion restaurant, but it’s also good for drinks, desserts, and appetizers.

Showed up for Happy hour at 5pm and nobody there (even staff lol). Greeted shortly though and the experience went fairly well. Fish tacos were the best (flavorful) I have had in a while and LOADED. Well worth the price. Loaded Tots and mini slider trio were in the Happy Hour menu and were good as well.
