Grouper sandwich on the huge outdoor patio

What makes it unique

The yard statue weighs 3,180 pounds and measures 20 feet long, 14 feet tall, and 10 feet wide.

The vibe

A big outdoor Holmes Beach seafood patio on Marina Drive — you eat under the 20-foot scrap-metal grouper, with live music every day and a kids play area off to the side.

What to order

Food: The grouper sandwich ($25) — blackened, grilled, or fried on a brioche bun with house Cajun remoulade. The Grouper Polynesian Boat ($36) is the bigger plate.

Drink: The A.M.I. Sunset ($15) — frozen Cruzan silver rum with strawberry and mango — or the UG Perfect Margarita ($18) if you want a heavier pour.
