4 Best Steakhouses in Key West

“Outstanding service! Outstanding Food!“

“My wife and I had zero plan and zero reservation on Duval Street when somebody mentioned there was a BBQ happening on the patio at Viva Argentinian Steakhouse. Figured we'd wander over and check it out. Instead we walked into a full-blown whole pig roast special, live music and all. It turned into one of the best random meals of the trip.

No idea if it's a regular thing or we just got lucky, but the whole pig was set up on the patio, freshly carved right there, with a line of people waiting to grab plates. We got in line ourselves no hesitation. The meat was tender and delicious, clearly not sitting around waiting on us. Paired it with a key lime martini and called it a night well spent.

**The food:** We still couldn't resist ordering off the regular menu too. We got one of each empanada flavor while we waited, and they more than held their own against the main event. Closed it out with a slice of key lime pie, which felt like the only appropriate way to end a Key West night.

**The vibe:** Open-air, string lights, a musician playing loud enough to feel it but not so loud you're shouting over dinner. Warm night, a key lime martini in hand, live music, and a pig roast we stumbled into completely by accident. What a way to start a Key West evening.

**The verdict:** If you're walking Duval and hear a band playing on a patio, follow it. Worst case, you get a good steak. Best case, you walk into a pig roast like we did.

*Would go back in a heartbeat, assuming the pig's on the menu again.*“

“I ate here several years ago on Christmas Eve and had a good dinner. Was recently in KW for my birthday and wanted to eat there again. Had coconut shrimp and crab cakes. Both very good. I’d recommend.“

“Great experience good service“
