European Restaurants in Key West, FL

“My husband and I came down to Key West to celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary, and while we visited some of our favorite spots, we wanted to try a few new ones as well. Martin’s was the first on our list. I originally saw them on TikTok and was drawn in by their fantastic marketing, especially their highlight of martinis — my favorite cocktail. My husband, who loves fresh fish (something Martin’s also specializes in), was equally excited.

After celebrating a little in our room, we made a reservation for 5 PM. I mentioned it was our anniversary when we arrived, and we were seated immediately. It wasn’t long before our server, Trent, came over — warm, welcoming, and attentive from the start. He genuinely wanted to make sure we had an amazing first visit to Martin’s.

Trent suggested delicious appetizers, which we thoroughly enjoyed. When it came to ordering our entrees, we mentioned dietary restrictions, and everything came out perfectly. Trent even helped us decide which dish would be safest considering our needs — something most servers either don’t know enough about the menu to do or simply don’t care to. His thoughtfulness elevated our experience.

Of course, I had a martini — made exactly how I like it, which is a rare treat. So good that I ordered a second! My husband enjoyed a few margaritas, and everything was delightful.

By the time we paid and our Uber arrived, we were almost disappointed to leave. The restaurant itself is beautiful, the experience was outstanding, and Trent made it truly special. We will most definitely be back!

As a sidenote, we took an Uber so I can’t speak to the parking situation, but we were dropped right at the door. Several other couples were enjoying themselves while we were there, and everything seemed to be going wonderfully for them as well.

Martin’s is now a must-visit for us in Key West.“
