12 Best Caribbean Restaurants in Key West

“The atmosphere was laid back and had true island feel. The menu was creative with many seafood options. The food was excellent and we had quick efficient service .“

“We had a wonderful spirit filled waiter - Everth! The food was fresh, cooked to perfection. My husband had seafood diavolo, which could have contained a little more seafood - only 2 clams. I had the lobster tail, cooked perfectly and a side of crispy asparagus. Since it was our 50th wedding anniversary, Everth brought us a piece of key lime pie with 2 candles on. We also shared a bottle of Da Vinci chianti! It was a beautiful evening with a view of the water.“

“Unbelievable night last night celebrating a birthday with a group of 22. The mentalist (magician) was mind boggling. The band, Marshal Morlock was incredible. And the service from start to finish was incredible. 100% recommend this restaurant/experience if you are in Key West. Congrats to them for hitting the bullseye. Everything we were expecting.“

“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!“

“I was looking for true island food, and the Duval Street scene is not for me. Trusted the high review numbers and was not disappointed.

I went with the shrimp creole. The rich seasonings were infused in each bite and only encouraged each next bite. The generous portion ensured I would not leave hungry.

I topped off the meal with a slice of key lime pie. The decadent key lime flavors contrasted the rich consistency of the dessert.

An electric guitar hung nearby with the promise of live music on busier nights. I am certain the ten tables and bar seats quickly fill on weekends.

I left fully satisfied and ducked into Hurricane Helene for a stormy nights rest.“

“We stopped for lunch which was amazing! The space was beautiful, especially the back courtyard. If we had more time, I would have stopped again.“

“Great food and friendly staff!“

“All I can say is check this place out! The food is amazing!“

“OMG the breakfast burrito was AH-MAZE-ING! I was skeptical about the rice inside, but it actually made it better! And the side of cilantro sauce was incredible. Plus pleasant people and very quick service. Cafe con leche was also perfect. We did takeout and she made it when we got there. I'd give you 10 stars if I could. Thank you!“

“curry chicken and honey Sriracha wings are seriously fire! So delicious! The best hands down!“
