The food is so freaking delicious and you can taste the care and Love she puts into HAND MAKING all her dishes. The coffee is strong, but the Love is Stronger!! I would recommend this place to anyone who has tried Israeli food and misses it, or anyone who has not and wants to experience something truly special.

I had the falafel wrap. The pita bread and hummus were absolutely delicious. The falafel was very good as well. We visited during a low traffic time of the day and the owner sat down at our table to explain how she makes the falafel and even offered her number so that I could call her if I had questions. Authentic delicious food, highly recommended!

Found this gem (on Google Maps!) while visiting from out of town. The owner is a charmingly grouchy (but actually very sweet) older Israeli lady who is abs hilarious. The food was awesome and good value. I got the Israeli salad first (forgot to take a pic) then Shakshuka which came with amazing hummus and (not in the pic) a fluffy pita. 5⭐s well deserved!

Elana makes your food fresh and it is delicious. We had friends who tried many things on the menu and were happy with all. She is a one man show so order in advance if you can

This is a great little place with great food. It's authentic key West. The good it's prepared in a small house and all dining is outside. There are plenty of fans.
There's a washing station in the dining area.

Not authentic at all. Nowhere near the real taste of middle eastern food.

If you’re looking for a standout kosher lunch experience in Key West, Mam’s Best Food is an absolute gem. The host and chef, affectionately known as “Mam,” delivers not just fresh, delicious Israeli cuisine, but a warm, unforgettable hospitality that makes you feel like family. Every dish bursts with flavor, perfectly spiced to your taste—just ask Mam, and she’ll craft something special, whether you’re craving a classic shawarma, a spicy eggplant pita, or her famously light, fresh falafel. The bread, especially the pita and baguette, is served hot and fluffy, the ideal base for her vibrant salads and spreads. Outdoor seating adds to the laid-back, homey vibe, and Mam’s lively personality turns every meal into a memorable experience. Whether you keep kosher or just love great food, this is a must-visit spot in Key West.
Today, we dined at Mam's Best Food, our top culinary discovery in Key West. Mam was delightful, and the service was exceptional and attentive. It felt just like a family gathering. We're planning to return tomorrow!
