Description: A quaint, riverside restaurant that serves up Marion County's only Key West style food, Gator Joe's gets its name from an alligator that plauged the legendary Ma Barker Gang in the early 1930's. Finally caught and killed in the 1950's, visitors to Gator Joe's can still see on display a foot taken from the original gator.
