“A & B Lobster House 700 Front St., Key West, FL 33040 4 Stars Ah, the Conch Republic. How can you not love the Key West even if it is a tourist trap. It is our tourist trap. Any place Papa Hemingway lived has to be cool. Opened 70 years ago by good friends Alonzo Cothron & Berlin Fleton, A & B Lobster House has become a Key West Waterfront icon in what is now A & B Marina. They have expanded over the decades to include a slew of eateries. Upon entering the abode, I almost thought I had stepped into an atelier; the place was so pristine and classic-looking. Michelle was the server today, and she was more or less what one expects from a place that bills itself as "fine dining." She was knowledgeable, polite, and professional. I asked for one Old Fashioned from Berlin's Bar, some Beef Carpaccio, and a New York Strip (Blackened and medium-rare) with a Caribbean Lobster Tail. Relaxing in the atmosphere of Key West, I was almost lost in the comforting arms of Hypnos when Michelle brought forth our fare. First, the Old Fashioned was made by someone who obviously knew what they were doing as it was delicious. I then turned my attention to the order of Beef Carpaccio. I learned from Michelle that the "fresh baked" part of this was neither fresh nor baked on-site. As I've stated a million times, if a dish involves any bread or pastry product, it has to start with the bread or pastry. If that is off, it throws the whole dish off, which was the case here. A for effort - D for quality. Moving on to the Blackened New York Strip and Caribbean Lobster Tail. Looking at the pictures, you can clearly see that beautiful, blackened crust on the charred bovine. It was cooked to a succulent medium-rare and was extremely tasty on the palate. The accompanying Lobster Tail was delightfully seasoned, grilled to perfection and caused my taste buds to break into a Bruckins as they were freed of crappy food for the nonce. The Carpaccio and bread are a 1, while I found the NY Strip and Lobster Tail to be a 4.5. Hence, the overall rating of a 4 -- giving greater weight to the entree. The Big Boy says, "I'm not sure if there is better dining in tourist trap haven, but it's miles above anything up in Cocoa Beach serving the same feed."”

“We went for breakfast after a friend’s recommendation that had been here before. The BEST place - great service, food was delivered quickly even with a large breakfast crowd - we had bloody Mary’s with our breakfast so it was a tad pricey but no one left anything on their plates. I enjoyed the story of the restaurant and will definitely be back when I return to the Keys.”

“Celebrated my 30th birthday here and it was by far the best food we ate in Key West. We ordered the Asiago bread and squid for our appetizers. The squid was FABULOUS!!! I’ve been craving it since! For dinner we did the wahoo, swordfish, prime rib and chicken. All of which we were each raving about to each other! The atmosphere was dimmed candle lit tables and our server was great! Highly recommend for anyone wanting to taste high end food and it be up to par! Will definitely be back!”

“Heads up…. Payed for a latte, received a regular coffee no foam. Coffee was weak. What surprised me the most was that they were adamant that it was a latte. Other than that, the food was delicious and the pastry’s were out of this world. Happy dining”

“Due to the weather, I found myself spending another night in Key West. I came across this quaint restaurant near my hotel. Francesca the owner is so sweet and friendly. Mario behind the bar was just great. He really knows the drinks and the food. I had the cream of zucchini soup. It was delicious large portion and great flavor. Two ladies at the bar shared their antipasto tray with me. Enjoyed both the tray and the ladies who shared it. I will definitely make this my first stop the next time I’m in Key West.”

“This place was fantastic. I met the owner(s?), they were so warm and friendly. They went above and beyond with their service and knowledge. I fell in love when the gal told me she made all the treats herself and all their packaging was biodegradable. The coffee was phenomenal, like nothing I’ve ever had before. I wish I lived close enough to have it regularly”

“Top level customer service and a taste that has to be tasted. As a foodie from New Orleans I tend to have higher expectations in service and taste and SO7 excels in every category. I’ve only been able to eat at around 30 or so restaurants in the few months I’ve lived here and SO7 has topped the all. Chef paul killing it behind the flames and the guys up front taking care of service from top to bottom. The crème de la crème in my book is the refreshing central AC. Nobody likes sweat dripping into your food after working all day and good AC is hard to come by in the lower keys. It’s my go to after work dinner and drinks. Pleasant experience all around.”

“We arrived kinda late so all the best stuff was gone. The brisket was still amazing.
But skip the cole slaw, it's super salty.
The sitting is outside so could be how and the flies are a bit of a problem too.”

“An absolutely hidden gem in Key West. 18 in-house beers that were all very good. There are lots of different beer styles that are all very good. The food menu is perfect for a day of drinking. Their guacamole was superb. The bartender, Angelina, was a joy. Very engaging and knowledgeable about the beer and all things local.”
