We had an early dinner, yesterday, Sunday, and we were the only people dining The location is lovely We enjoyed the seafood risotto, tomatillo gazpacho and lobster empanadas Strangely, the heart of palm salad was half a romaine lettuce cut into quarters, with a thick layer of shredded cheese, no dressing and maybe 6 or 7 slivers of heart of palm. I thought maybe there was a mistake and the heart of palm serving had somehow been missed. I brought this to the lady who was the manager on duty. She cordially listened to my remarks and asked if I might want some dressing on there... I remarked that I had expected a heart of palm salad, not a romaine salad. This item remained on our bill, which disappointed me The rest of the food was delicious and our server was very nice, so it seemed surprising that our disappointment with this particular offering did not seem to raise any concern
Took my girlfriend here for dinner. Everyone was extremely nice and professional. Food was great as well. Views are amazing at sunset.
Came in for a lunch and ordered their seafood and civiche with some lobster rolls. Waiter dumped our food onto the floor and we were forced to wait for another 30 mins. no apology either.
Food finally got to us and the seafood platter consisted of 6 shrimp, 6 raw oysters and a civiche that was more akin to a mayo salad with cooked shrimp, not raw.
The lobster empanadas were made with fake lobster and not fresh and then on the bill they altered the price to try and make up for their mistake.
DO NOT EAT HERE THEY ARE A SCAM.
This is wonderful place for great food and sunset watching.
Great!
I was so excited to try this restaurant but honestly, what a disappointment for the price point . The decor and building was run down and the food was way over priced. Way too casual for what we expected from the website. Definitely would not recommend or go back.
We had a fantastic lunch at Four Flamingos in Key West! The atmosphere was bright, fun, and tropical—just like you’d hope for in paradise. We were seated with stunning waterfront views, which made the experience even more memorable.
We started with the calamari, which was perfectly crisp and flavorful—a great way to kick off our meal. For our mains, we tried the Lobster Roll, Cuban Sandwich, and Cheeseburger, and every dish was absolutely delicious. Each plate was thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor.
To top it all off, we celebrated my husband’s birthday with a slice of their Key Lime Pie, and it did not disappoint—refreshing, tart, and the perfect sweet ending.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food, beautiful views, and a laid-back yet elegant vibe in Key West!
A hidden jem, a romantic corner of key west and one of the best places to see the sunset while dining. We always have an amazing and unique meal here. A must on your next trip!
Food was great, service was ok. Not sure why they added gratuity and listed it as a service charge for a table of 2 at a buffet. Sneaky.
We went for the Mother's Day brunch. The food was disgusting! The charcuterie meats were spoiled, I wouldn't give my dog that prosciutto. The raw bar was inedible. I gagged on the shrimp and had to spit it out. The edges of the flank steak were green like it had freezer burn. The Bloody Mary was gross. It must have been the cheapest vodka available. Unbelievable for a $15 drink. Pancakes were as hard as rocks. The only thing that I can say was good was the omelette. $90 per person, they should be ashamed of themselves. Key west has a handful of great breakfast restaurants. I was really hoping to add Four Flamingos to the list but it was a complete disappointment.

We had an incredible birthday dinner at Four Flamingos on our last night in Key West, thanks to a great recommendation from Erin at Rick's Bar (who also makes a killer margarita!). The place was quiet when we arrived, but the sunset view from the deck and our fantastic, friendly server quickly set the tone for a special night. We loved everything we ordered—especially the fresh black grouper (catch of the day), and crispy shrimp and cornbread doughnuts appetizers. Dessert was a show in itself with espresso martinis topped with a coconut bubble, gelato, and key lime pie complete with a classy and low-key 'happy birthday' salute and candle. A truly memorable meal—we'll definitely be back if we visit KW again!
Small place, great sunset location. Not Many people when we went. Great drinks, service and food. Surf and turf for two was great.
The brunch is truly incredible, 100% worth it. The food was spectacular, the atmosphere and view were wonderful, and the chef is incredibly attentive to making sure everything is perfect, which makes it feel so welcoming and humane. I will return and recommend it!
Our server Dan was outstanding! Our lunch dishes had been tweaked from the menu listings, but still good. Key lime dessert and oysters appetizer were the stars!
The menu is not particularly exciting nor does it change. But the special daily fish ( always snapper ?! ) is well prepared and my go to. Service is reliably excellent with attentive friendly staff. Can't beat the view from the balcony and that is the best part.
