“Wow! We are blown away with Marquesa hotel. From the beautiful king suite poolside room, to the delicious cookies at noon, and the amazing staff… Great job! We’ve been coming to Key West two times a year every year for the past 10 to 15 years and we’ve stayed at many beautiful properties, but this one wins above them all. I highly, highly recommend this property. We will be returning guests for sure!”
“One of the best meals that we have ever had in our years of coming to Key West! Our only complaint is that we didn’t discover this gem sooner. Fantastically delicious menu options; everything was prepared and presented perfectly. Our waiter was personable and professional. We will definitely be back soon!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Experience! From start to finish, everything was exceptional! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented — truly some of the best we’ve had in a long time. The drinks were perfectly crafted and delicious, and the service was outstanding — friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. Every detail was spot-on, and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food, great service, and a great atmosphere!”

“Being from Canada we were looking forward to trying this little quirky restaurant on a boat . Ribs and brisket were excellent and best baked beans I’ve ever tasted. Apparently missed the neighbour hood manatee who lives in the port . We would definitely visit again !”
“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."”
“Great Breakfast sandwiches with many,many different choices on the menu.
I had the “KeyWester” and loved it so much I drove out of my way to go back and have it again the next day.
The portions are large enough to split and feel full when you’re finished.
They have an extensive lunch menu as well.
If your down that way, give them a try, you will not be disappointed.👍👍👍👍👍”
“Found them in Stillwater, what surprise. Wonderful food, going back.”

“Awesome place! The food is really really good, and the atmosphere is amazing, bringing Sicilian vibes all over. We were a party of 6 and reserved beforehand and that’s really useful here because it was full to the brim! I recommend the chicken milanese it was really nice and juicy, and server Tasha was also great, checking up on us every once in a while. Great place to eat!”

“Our favorite brewery with lots of gluten free beer options and food. The vegan chili fires are amazing. Atmosphere is great and lots of games for the kids to play.
Key lime sour and the El Nino Jalapeño ale are our favorites.”
“Trust the other popular reviews here, this place has the best burger around. In fact, I am from Minnesota and this might be the best burger I've ever had.
I ordered the original burger with sweet tots and a side of pickled fries. Everything was absolutely amazing. The burger literally melts in your mouth.”
“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”
“Great staff, excellent tapas, the beef tenderloin is a must and priced very fairly 👍”
“Mo's is a quiet, unassuming, off the beaten path, gem of a find! Friendly atmosphere and the food was excellent. We had the escargot with mushrooms, the oxtail and the shrimp creole. They were all wonderful but that shrimp creole was an amazing explosion of so many flavors! Hands down the best food in Key West! The only downfall was that we found this on our last evening in town and wasted time in some other restaurants first. We can't wait to come back and try everything else!”

“Getting there you go through rough snd run down parts. Walking up I was apprehensive it looked sketchy. But you turn the corner and it is really nice. The service was great, food was so good and HUGE portions! The lobster ragoon was heaven! Glad I didn't decide to turn around.”

“My husband and I were there tonight. We were at your restaurant 12 years ago and we had the Soul Mama soup then and I had to go back while in Key West to have it again. Even in 100 degree weather I had to order me some soul mama soup. The lobster special was very tempting, but I couldn’t pass up my favorite. Thank you for keeping Soul Mama on the menu ❤️🎉”
“Food was pretty good, with some free fried dough when you first sit down. I liked that. Service quick and friendly, and the staff were helpful and kind. I would come back. Only little problem is that the outside was kind of shabby, but don't judge a book by its cover.”
“5 STARS! I found this alfresco cafe in Key West because it looks like Florida. Colors, open air, music, food, great vibe! Then came the food. I had a salmon crepe that was huge and a cappuccino that made my day! Next time in town my girlfriend and I WILL be coming back!”
“Oh my goodness, what a wonderful experience we had when dining with you on November 30th! The food was incredible and service was outstanding! If you like martinis, they have many to choose from. We celebrated my husband’s birthday with a beautiful sunset view. (Thank you to the staff for making it extra special!)Seriously, a perfect dining experience! When in Key West, definitely dine here!”
“All I can say is check this place out! The food is amazing!”
“I came for Fantasy Fest and stayed 6 days and had a great time. This was my first time staying as a guest even though I'd visited for the day the previous Fantasy Fest. Every one was very friendly especially the staff. I especially want to thank Ivan and Angel who were the best bartenders/servers I could ask for and Jordan at the Front Desk who always answered all of my many questions and made sure I always felt welcome. The food menu was very impressive and you can always get a quick, inexpensive and tasty meal at any time of the day or night. There were many cute guys too of course on full display and they give guests 4 free drinks during happy hour so it's hard to not have a great time here. I definitely hope to be back. :)”

“This place is always my default go to burger joint when I let time slip away from me and everything else is closed before I realize it, I can always count on The Burger Den to come through 24/7! I personally love their burgers and breakfast dishes late night ?.
Vegetarian options: I don't know much, just know they have options.
Kid-friendliness: I know they have kids menus.
Parking: Located in a shopping center so plenty of parking, no worries.
Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp.”
“I booked this hotel for my daughter and friends. They had nothing but praise for the property. It was clean, staff extremely friendly and helpful and the location was perfect. If they get a chance to re-visit Key West, they expressed that they will re-book the same place.”
“The service was great, a server, after my wife pick a dish, suggested that she might want to get a half a serving, good thing that she did. We decided to get a whole serving and split it between us. That worked out good. We both had a good meal. Thanks to that server.”
“Delicious food and great service! get.the conch fritters and mahi bites. best fritters we had on our trip!”
“This place was phenomenal all around. The owner greeted us, management all greeted us, and staff was attentive all around. Lobster pizza and the street corn pizza were phenomenal. I loved the Pina colada key lime pie. It is by far the best key lime I have tried. The view, the chickens, all of it!!”

“Kermit’s Key Lime Pie is an absolute must when in Key West. The pie is rich, tangy, and perfectly balanced—truly to die for. We loved it so much, Don’t miss it!

“5 Stars – Kindness Lives Here! Kava Culture in Key West is more than just a kava bar – it’s a place filled with genuinely good humans. After a stressful evening of losing my wallet while walking home, I was beyond relieved when the amazing team here found it and kept it safe for me until I could return. When we walked in the next day, I was greeted with warm smiles, positive energy, and a welcoming vibe that instantly made me feel better. We sat at the bar and the staff took the time to patiently explain the kava experience and the different beverages they offer. It’s clear they care about what they do and the people who walk through their doors. The vibe is cool, chill, and inviting – exactly the kind of place you want to unwind and feel at home. I HIGHLY recommend this business. Choose kindness always – they do, and it does not go unnoticed. Thank you, Kava Culture!”
“It has such a cool vibe, the staff were super friendly and professional and the food and drinks were so fresh and delicious on top of being really gorgeous! 💗 I also loved the added touch of the dog bowls on the side walk, MANY dogs stooped to grab and quick drink. I recommend 10/10 !”
“We stayed down the block at a AirBnB so naturally got coffee and breakfast our first morning. It was so delicious we ate breakfast there every morning except for one (we had to leave for the ferry before they opened, so we ate dinner there that night!) All the food was amazing! Well seasoned, fresh, flavorful, and portions were huge! The coffee was perfect, I really loved the cortadito and milk espreso. The staff was friendly and offered recommendations if needed.”
“We are early risers, even on vacay, so I searched“coffee near me open now,” and saw Sandy’s. Being a huge fan of Cuban café, I was so excited to see that they open at 5am! Hands down, the best Cortadito we’ve ever had. We grabbed a Cuban sandwich to wait out a small rain storm and I’ve never been more thankful for rain, because it was absolutely delicious. The BREAD…iykyk. We’ve found our early morning spot, and will definitely be back!”

“If you’re in Key West and haven’t tried Wasacaca, you’re truly missing out on a hidden gem! This food truck serves the most incredible authentic Venezuelan food, and it’s run by the kindest and friendliest person you’ll ever meet, Neilee. My favorite thing to order is the chicken cachapas! They’re absolutely out of this world – perfectly cooked, loaded with flavor, and just the right balance of savory and sweet from the corn pancake. It’s comfort food at its finest. I highly recommend trying them! Neilee’s dedication to authentic flavors shines in every bite, and it’s clear she pours her heart into every dish. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, make it a priority to stop by Wasacaca – you won’t regret it!”
“Everything in here looked decadent. A place where you wish you could try everything. We came as soon as we researched Dubai Chocolate and found this shop near us. It exceeded our expectations was incredibly rich in flavor and great texture. I also had to have the Turkish coffee. One the best cups I've ever had. If you like dark dark coffee that is smooth; it is a must have. Our host was very nice and she gave us great service.”
“Perfect location on Duval! Easy walk to beach, bars, and restaurants. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Rooms have everything you need, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, beach chairs, beach towels, information on local attractions, I could go on and on… Oh and the fact that the rum bar is right downstairs is very convenient, maybe too convenient, lol! 🍹🥴”
“We just left there and we had an amazing time staying at the campground. We went to the restaurant every day and it is really a great place to eat and hang out. We would love to see a couple of delicious desserts added to their menu, but other than that, no complaints at all! Great food, nice atmosphere, and we can’t wait to get back there in December! Also, take a short ride in a Lyft or Uber to Old Town and enjoy!!!”

“Great place. The ladies that worked the Greene St. shop are so sweet and friendly. When I worked for the Conch Tour Train it was my go-to at the Stop 3 😁 I've moved since mid 2022. If I get the chance to visit, I will definitely stop in for a cup of coffee and their delicious emenadas 😀”
“The Bartender’s and Staff are amazing! Food is consistently good, drinks as well as food is probably the most reasonably priced on the Island! Also, Sun Loungers are only $15 bucks for the entire day. The Beach is small but it’s always clean and a good vibe. Great mix of Locals and Tourists! Highly recommend for a relaxing day out 🙌”
“I was excited to try the food here after reading all the reviews. The service is great with very friendly staff. The food, however not bad, lacked flavor. I wasn't expecting this from a Caribbean food truck and felt disappointed. The price was also higher than what is shown in the pictures here.
The juice, though, was amazing.”
“The food is healthy and delicious. Staff friendly and kind. You don’t need a “Loyalty Card” just add your phone number and use your perks as you please. Customers receive credits with each purchase. This is a healthy alternative to calorie laden meals. Incorporate a few trips to Date and Thyme in your weekly routine and your belly will smile. Mine gets happy with the Blueberry Bliss smoothie, organic apples (quick snack), espresso, the prepared foods (some make a great meal right on premises). There is ample seating and shade to keep you cool. Be cool my friends!”
“This is an absolute must!! We ordered a schnitzel plate and it was OUT OF THIS WORLD DELICIOUS!!! The owner is the nicest person I've ever met! She does all the food fresh on the spot with full of flavor! Will definitely recommend to all of my friends and come back when in the area again!”

“if you truly want fresh fish, as well as coleslaw made when you order, fresh homemade black beans and rice, or french fries cut from potatoes that morning, B.O.'s is the only place you're going to get that in key West!!!”
“The food and service were amazing. one of the best meals I have ever had.”
“Fast, fresh delivery. Visiting the area and pleased to have such delicious food delivered so quickly! Spinach samosas were hot and steamy upon arrival and delicious. Falafel and gyro platter come with fresh roasted vegetables- a nice, fresh non-fried choice in the keys”
“Did this for a large party for my wife's 60th birthday. Setting it up with super easy and everyone was super nice and the servers were awesome also we got a bunch of appetizers and they were all great”
“Thank you for making my wife's birthday dinner enjoyable. Everything was first class. We have been here many times and Azur is one of our favorites in town.”
“Our annual trip to the Keys would not be complete without a visit to Uva Wine Shoppe. Mark is so friendly and always has great suggestions for wines to try. I keep pictures of the labels of wines I’ve gotten from him and if the wine is not available anymore, he knows what to suggest that will be just as good and usually better. I definitely recommend this wine shoppe if you are in Key West.”
“Bartender alone ! She made an Outstanding Old Fashion and grapefruit Martini.”
“Great food, great staff, comfortable no-hurry dining room. From apps to salads to sandwiches to platters. Not a loser in the bunch. Gotta have the tomato soup.”
“As someone who is gluten free I was ecstatic to receive a box of gluten free cupcake sushi. They taste amazing! No one even knew they were gluten free as I shared them. Thank you for making them so I could have something sweet for my birthday! I will be ordering more now that I know I can eat them!”
“Happy hour from 4-6! Fresh, Delicious oysters and the best deal in town. Ceviche was wonderful and sangria’s were perfection! Clean, clean, clean❤️”
“OUTSTANDING!! OUTSTANDING!! OUTSTANDING!! Only way to describe my recent experience at Chef Richie’s Lola’s Bistro. Incredible dinner with amazing sauces. Everything was great from start to finish. Will definitely eat here again. Two seatings 6:00 & 8:00. It’s BYOB. Best meal I’ve had in a long time. This place is a home run. Make sure to call ahead for reservations.”
“Excellent food, above average friendly service and a warm cozy atmosphere! Spaghetti & meatballs and eggplant parm were both plentiful & delicious! Cool little bar, not a bad seat in the place! Looking forward to coming back again next year.”
“Lolita’s nails fresh, flavorful coastal dishes with a relaxed, bright atmosphere. From perfectly seasoned seafood to crisp, refreshing sides, every bite feels thoughtful.
The staff are friendly and helpful, and the setting makes it ideal for a casual lunch and dinner.”
“Have been there twice. Last year was amazing. Everything perfect. This year, the special was prawn (not gulf coast shrimp as specified) and the prawn had the seafood stank, unlike typical fresh seafood. Didn’t want to cause a stink. Way overpaid IMO, we’ll be back about a 50:50 shot. Wasn’t busy? Perhaps off season? Idk.”
“Extremely overpriced food. Worst sloppy joe sandwich I've had in my life! certainly not worth $15.49 and NO SIDES included. Small, and not much filling, I've had better at a church picnic! Drinks are no better than anywhere else. Party atmosphere, but if you want good food and decent portions for REASONABLE prices, look elsewhere.”

“nachos were great! shrimp tacos were fantastic! Definitely recommended”
“Unbelievable! We had the calamari app which was sautéd. Freaking amazing! Next my wife ordered the Ceviche. Off the hook! Now for the coup de grace, the Black Grouper with passion fruit and mango chutney. OMG!!! A foodies dream! A must stop when in Key West!!!!”
“Oh my goodness, what a wonderful experience we had when dining with you on November 30th! The food was incredible and service was outstanding! If you like martinis, they have many to choose from.

“The staff is friendly and the food is great ! Half Shell Raw Bar is always a must when we stay in Key West. You will never be disappointed.”
“I highly recommend the Reverend Joe’s Burger and the Cuban! They serve an Island Life Lager that is brewed by Waterfront Brewery right in Key West! It was awesome as well!”
“Usually, I go to Salutes at night. However last Friday myself and a good friend met for an afternoon lunch. I have to tell you from the moment we were seated and our server introduced herself the luncheon was spectacular. Mary Jo was so bubbly, excited and energetic that it changed the whole dining experience. She made the lunch fun and all about us. Apparently, Mary Jo works Monday -Friday and that's why I never ran into her before. Make sure you visit and look for her. Barbara Bosco Crespo”

“Excellent food. Their tomato bisque! Historic building. Charming.”
“Had a blast! You exceeded all of my expectations with your tequila selection last night. From your single barrel Fortaleza “Horse Play” to the G4 6 barrel and the other extensive selection. Killer atmosphere def sets you apart from everywhere else. The DJ out back was sick and we will be back.Keep up the good work!”
“our group had an awesome time here and we LOVED the bartender!! they were from out of the country and so good at their job!! we will for sure be back on our next trip down to the keys”
“We spent a little over a week and each day was better than the previous! The breakfast was amazing, the bar and food were also great! Every single staff member we were in contact with was friendly, gracious, and beyond accommodating! Special shout out to Felix and Lisa! The rooms were beautiful… So clean, large, with great views, and the beds were super comfortable! Our son goes to school and lives in Key West so we are down there often… This was our first time at the Capitana and definitely not our last! From here on out we will stay nowhere else! I have been telling people and will continue to tell everyone I know that this is the best place to stay in Key West!”
“Great experience during lunch. Go straight to the bar. It’s on the water. Beat the dinner crowd and enjoy a great view during a lunch visit. Much more relaxing! No reason to fight the crowds at night.”
“This is a hidden gem in Key West. We will definitely stay here on our next journey to Key West.”
“Great little food stand at the Windward Hyatt Vacation Club that’s a perfect microcosm of traditional Key West foods! We tried the conch fritters, coconut shrimp, BLT burger, and smoked Gouda mac and cheese bites - everything was absolutely delicious. The woman working the counter was so friendly and pleasant, which made the experience even better. Perfect spot for a tasty bite while staying at the resort and experiencing authentic local flavors. Highly recommend!”
“Perla is an absolute gem. The staff is super friendly and attentive, always keeping our drinks filled and making sure we had everything we needed. The food was wonderful, the thick perfectly cooked bacon and rich flavorful coffee stood out. Prices were fair, and the experience overall was excellent. We highly recommend this place!”
“We visited the Yummy Crab while on vacation in Key West! It was by far the best food we ate down there! it was seasoned to perfection.... the wait staff were very attentive and friendly. We are so happy we stumbled upon this gem!!!!”
“Great hotel, and accessible to the disabled - we neither sleep well nor eat well, the restaurant was well placed with four swimming pools.
Especially the famous waitress Kate who was very kind and very beautiful. If you go to Florida I recommend this heavenly hotel
Wheelchair accessibility: Some rooms have a lift so wheelchair accessible”
“Great food and great people working there! Poke bowl was so fresh and amazing- my family loved it. Enjoyed a walk through the marina afterwards great outside vibes.”
“Amazing food and drinks!! Service was fast but personable and didn’t feel rushed at all. Food was VERY hot coming out and absolutely delicious. Will definitely be back the next time I’m in KW!”
“Great experience during lunch. Go straight to the bar. It’s on the water. Beat the dinner crowd and enjoy a great view during a lunch visit. Much more relaxing! No reason to fight the crowds at night.”
“Somewhere in that bar, you will find a painted plaque dedicated to Capt Mark Gamble, he and his wife perished on a vessel that was modified in Key West. Captain Paul Worthington was so touched by their story he allowed a painted plaque to be placed in his bar, You as a person from afar are allowed to drink here not knowing the history of the great masters who sat here like Hemmingway and Mel Fisher met their demise thur their love of the ocean. I miss all of these men dearly, I am shedding tears for all as I write this story. You are fortunate to sit in their shadow and consume drinks in a place where only the greatest of men have hollowed. This is not your normal bar, this is a shrine to men who loved the ocean and have perished. You should feel privileged to sit and drink here.”
“My husband and I have been coming here for years. It’s exceptional. We never have any problems with dietary restrictions and the service is 10/10”
“This was our first time having Cuban cuisine. We absolutely loved everything they served us. Great atmosphere, great service and friendly staff. We will definitely be back!”
“We had our wedding dinner here March 28th and they were absolutely amazing! They handled our large party well, drinks and food were amazing and service was super fast! We will definitely be stopping in on our next trip!”
“It was our last brunch in the keys the setting view people and food so good and we loved the music”
“We spent a nice evening here during a recent stay at the Hyatt Centric. Service great, dockside, marina, bay view … beautiful place to hang out, right next to the hotel pool! Lots of blue lights… made many of the pics blue… LOL. Drinks were typical island bar, but very good! We had the fish tacos and key lime pie, both delicious! Highly recommend you stop here!”
“We stopped by for some mojitos and an espresso martini during a very hot Fantasy Fest. Gary was an incredible bartender- he was welcoming, knowledgeable, and attentive. It was great to have time to relax in A/C and the service made it even better.”
“It's my second time coming back to Key West and this place was the first place I went. I didn't stay at the hotel, just came for Rum Row. I was so happy to see Jamie was still there. He always has taken great care of me and other customers. The Rum Row Punch is so good. Highly recommend this place!”
“We visited the Yummy Crab while on vacation in Key West! It was by far the best food we ate down there! it was seasoned to perfection.... the wait staff were very attentive and friendly. We are so happy we stumbled upon this gem!!!!”
“lasagna soggy, not a greek salad, spaghetti sauce taste like ketchup, bruschella bread was hard. not good food at all. high prices our server was great. You call this a greek salad🤮🤮🤮”
“Great key west vibe! Delicious food and drinks- great happy hour! Amazing staff!”
“Tonight was our second time here and it was just as perfect. Being from Charleston SC we have been to some excellent restaurants and this is right up there. The atmosphere, view, service, and food are all 110%”
“Duffy’s was recommended by a local and while it was good I wouldn’t say great. I opted for the surf and turf and the sirloin was tender and delicious, melted in your mouth. The lobster however had no flavor and was over cooked. The baked potato was just ok, but we all know it’s not hard to cook a baked potato. The service was friendly and quick and they got us right in. Maybe it was an off night, you decide!”
“We stayed at the DoubleTree the night before our flight out of Key West. We all decided to just eat here at the hotel restaurant, and so glad we did! We opted to eat outside and enjoy our last bit of nice weather before heading home. We ordered a couple of appetizers (quesadilla & nachos) which was plenty for the five of us in our party. For our entrees, everyone ordered something different but we were all pleasantly surprised with just how good our food was. It was honestly probably one of the best meals we ate while vacationing down in the Keys. Aside from the food, our waiter, Bravin, was excellent! He was attentive and fun to talk with. Don’t overlook this restaurant option just because it is in a hotel!”
“Wonderful Italian restaurant on Duval St! Everything was absolutely delicious. We had the calamari, bolognese, and shrimp linguine… all absolutely amazing! Would highly recommend!”
“My husband and I were there tonight. We were at your restaurant 12 years ago and we had the Soul Mama soup then and I had to go back while in Key West to have it again. Even in 100 degree weather I had to order me some soul mama soup. The lobster special was very tempting, but I couldn’t pass up my favorite. Thank you for keeping Soul Mama on the menu ❤️🎉”
“Omg the best food hands down I never tasted something so delicious and authentic and amazing as this place 😩😩😩”
“We dined here on Sept 14, 2025 The toasted coconut piña colada was amazing!! Everyone had a cheeseburger with French fries, everyone was pleased! We would eat here again.”
“The food was excellent; my wife had the hog fish special and I had the chicken parmigiana. We split chocolate mousse for dessert. The service was excellent. Highly recommended!!”
“Phillip our server was excellent He was quite attentive and answered any questions we had. The lobster was overcooked and a bit tough. The crab cakes were good as were the Brie and pate The Garden setting in the back was nice as the tables were set apart”
“We had a shockingly delicious chicken sandwich with fries before a flight out. Honestly, was one of the tastiest fried chicken sandwich I've ever had. Friendly service as well! Great spot to relax if you're waiting for a flight.”
“This is hands down our favorite restaurant whenever we’re in the Florida Keys — and for good reason. We’ve never had a bad meal or poor service here. This visit was no exception and might’ve been our best yet. I had the crabcakes, which were perfectly crisped on the outside and packed with flavor. My daughter ordered the lobster ravioli and declared it one of the best meals she’s ever had. My husband went with the Caribbean pork chops — moist, tender, and full of island flavor. Even the kids meal impressed us: our grandson’s fish fingers came out looking like a full adult entrée, complete with freshly cut fruit. And yes, everyone wanted a bite of those fish fingers. As for the drinks: the Caribbean Mojito made with Bombarda Culverin Caribbean Rum was refreshing and just strong enough to remind you you’re on vacation. The Million Dollar Conch-A-Rita (their signature top-shelf margarita) with Herradura Blanco, agave, fresh lime juice, and a Grand Marnier float? Worth every dollar. We finished with the hot pineapple upside-down cake — warm, gooey, and absolutely dreamy. And as always, the view of the water is breathtaking. You just can’t beat dinner with a sunset over the sea.”
“Amazing experience everytime. Everything is always hot fresh and delicious. Best sushi in Key West”
“Best pizza. Owner handed the pizza to us like she cared so much for us So much love in this place and the food.”
“I booked this hotel for my daughter and friends. They had nothing but praise for the property. It was clean, staff extremely friendly and helpful and the location was perfect. If they get a chance to re-visit Key West, they expressed that they will re-book the same place.”

“Somewhere in that bar, you will find a painted plaque dedicated to Capt Mark Gamble, he and his wife perished on a vessel that was modified in Key West. Captain Paul Worthington was so touched by their story he allowed a painted plaque to be placed in his bar, You as a person from afar are allowed to drink here not knowing the history of the great masters who sat here like Hemmingway and Mel Fisher met their demise thur their love of the ocean. I miss all of these men dearly, I am shedding tears for all as I write this story. You are fortunate to sit in their shadow and consume drinks in a place where only the greatest of men have hollowed. This is not your normal bar, this is a shrine to men who loved the ocean and have perished. You should feel privileged to sit and drink here.”

“My visit to the Grand Café in Key West was outstanding from start to finish, thanks to both the incredible food and the exceptional service—especially from our waitress, Zulia. She was the highlight of the evening: warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about making sure we had a memorable experience. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she managed to be both professional and personable without ever feeling intrusive. She truly elevated the entire meal. The food itself was just as impressive. The tuna tartare was fresh, vibrant, and beautifully balanced—each bite packed with clean flavor and just the right amount of acidity and texture. It set the tone perfectly for what was to come. Then came the lobster, and it was nothing short of phenomenal. Tender, rich, and perfectly prepared, it was the kind of dish that reminds you why dining out can feel like a special occasion. The presentation was elegant without being fussy, and every element on the plate complemented the lobster flawlessly. Between the wonderful ambiance, the delicious food, and Zulia’s exceptional service, the Grand Café has easily become one of my favorite spots in Key West. If you’re looking for a place that combines quality, comfort, and hospitality, this restaurant delivers on all fronts. And if you’re lucky enough to have Zulia as your server, you’re in for an even better night.”

“Baby’s Grill is a must stop on your way to & fro Key West. It’s no lie the best food we ate in The Keys. It’s a food truck next to Baby’s Coffee serving up a menu of American favorites. There’s plenty of parking and tables to sit. We got Étouffée, a Philly Cheesesteak and fries with Coral Aioli. Everything was incredible and masterfully crafted. The food was made with love and serious flavor that truly satisfied. The Coral Aioli is other worldly and will knock your socks right off. Don’t take my word for it, go and see for yourself. 👀🔥🪸”
