“We were guests for dinner and very happy with our choice., The cocktails were superb and our meal very good. Probably not a,ways easy to get in but this was a Sunday in September and it was not too busy. This is outside under cover with a very relaxed atmosphere out by tge beach bar. This was what we were looking for. This is Key West after all. Kt Venice fl“

“It was recommended to us by some locals. The atmosphere is elegant, very clean and friendly staff. We had the Hogg fish which they are known for. Absolutely excellent dinner. Reasonably priced for where you are and what we ate. If you're ever in Key West I highly recommend dining here. We didn't call ahead and got right in at opening time. It would probably be a good idea to make a reservation, as we saw many people wait outside when we left. 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“This is the second time we have come in less than 4 months. It's a perfect view. The port offers drinks, meals and snacks to accompany it. Also on some occasions they bring live musicians and DJs to give the last touch to this incredible place. If you are in Key West, you can't miss this view!“

“Very Friendly! Great roll!“

“We stayed right down the street at the Palms Hotel we were told we would get a discount at this food truck which we did not but ???? My wife had the fish and french fries and I had the chicken burrito with french fries and the food was great. The burrito was so huge. It was enough for three people, a little pricey for a food truck but I guess that’s what happens when you’re in Key West overall great rating great food really really good burrito“

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!!“

“Impressed and Amazed....that's how I'm starting off this post. Didn't know what to expect. I honestly hadn't heard to much, but I have heard it was all positive. We went there for my wife's birthday and a friend. We started off with cocktails which were just amazing. My wife had the Island expresso...OMG...she's not a coffee drinker, but I think this might have changed her mind. They made an impressive Coconut Bubble...you got to go there to see what I mean. I had the 1865 Smoked Old Fashioned...best one I have every had and our friend had the purple Cucumber Collins and she was so excited and happy with the flavor and presentation. For the food...first...everything on the menu looked good. We started with Appetizers that included the Cornbread Madeleines that were so good followed by the Pietro's Calamari...OMG...Best on the island...I'm serious when I say that...absolutely the best! and our friend ordered the Ahi Tuna Tartare Tostada with a mango yolk and the Stuffed Avocado with Lump Crab. The outside of the avocado looked just like the outside of an avocado, but it was black lime which was so good and genius. We decided to have the Prime Rib for two, which actually fed all 3 of us and a lobster tail. All perfectly cooked. Let me also say our waiter, Veli, was just the best. So friendly and helpful and very, very knowledgeable about the menu and the offerings. Just expanded on the experience we had. By dessert time we were so full, but since it was my wife's birthday she got to choose and her selections was the Smoked Chocolate & Cherries...WOW...is all I can say. All the staff from setting up the reservation to those filling our water and delivering our food were just so friendly and professional. This is a wonderful atmosphere, where you can sit inside with wonderful views or sit out side and enjoy the water and for us the sunset. We island dressed up for this, but we saw people who came in to dine in just relaxing attire. We'll be back...especially at happy hour as they have a really nice offering. Put this place on your must go restaurant. I know we have!“

“We visited the restaurant last week it was full of people and believed that they were short of staff.
The host was the best! She was fast and kind and gave us a great table to enjoy our dinner.
The server was also nice and answered all our requests. The drinks were bad and the food was a meh, the oyster were good but the fried calamari were bad. I don’t know, in general I was waiting for something better, but the experience was OK.“

“Great fish tacos and pasta salad!“

“We had a 9:45 reservation on New Year’s Eve and everything was good. We were seated at a table before 10, we requested the filet mignon and were informed they were sold out of filet mignon… a steakhouse out of filet mignon???? My brothers and parents ordered the 14 OZ ribeye steak instead, and requested no potatoes and opted for carrots. We waited 30 minutes and got a steak that was not 14 OZ, more like 9/10, and fot potatoes. We were then informed they were out of carrots, and then requested asparagus. See we have been coming here annually for 5 years this is the first time I have been disappointed. In addition, the website included skirt steak, and I was informed after asking about the skirt steak, it wasn’t on their menu for the night. The caesar salad was fantastic, and served fairly quickly. I had the seafood risotto and that was amazing, so much seafood and a great taste. Furthermore, the drinks were great and also served very quickly. Also, our waitress was so sweet and very enthusiastic.“

“It was great! Thanks Lenny for the good help, the good cocktails and the good food! �“

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

“Many friends recommended! Glad we listened, fantastic food and laidback chill feel.“

“Amazing service, food and atmosphere! Definitely a hidden gem within Key West. A must try if you are in the area“

“Lovely place for breakfast! Me and my family ate eggs, pancakes, bacon and bread for a really reasonable price. The coffee was really good as well! The two people who ran it were really friendly and were happy to talk to us about Key West after we ate. It is also in a beautiful courtyard with seats both outside and inside.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly“

“The best place in the keys to hang out before sundown!“

“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.“

“Excellent staff and owner who cares about everyone.“

“Food was spectacular; service low key (pun intended) and great limeades“

“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!“

“Always a fun time & loved the veggie quesadilla“

“Great food and drinks-Enjoy.“
