Grapefruit Martini
Brett H.

Amazing amosphere, view, food and drinks! The service is consistently good, friendly and very accommodating. Grab a window seat if you are able!

unsweet ice tea...

This area is know for its local clams & seafood. Knowing this, all we wanted was the clam chowder. And moi wanted the Crab bisque. This place makes the red clam chowder, which is what we prefer over the white & fresh crab bisque. You can get it by the cup or bowl or you can get a quart to take home. Both soups were amazballs. In fact, we haven't stopped talking about them since. We wished we would have got a quart of each to take home!!! The red clam chowder has potatoes/onions very hearty with their fresh local clams it's just fabulous. The crab bisque is cream based & has tons of fresh crab in it. Both of them are just divine. like i said we still are talking about these two soups. We can't wait to return for the quarts to go!!! Very cool dockside dining under the stars. Highly recommend.

Pimento Cheese Dip
Alan D.

My friend told me about this place he and his mom visits and I had to go check it myself. Of course he went with me, since I have no idea how to drive in Florida or know how to properly get here with their confusing roads. Anyway, we are here for dinner and ate downstairs to get the open view of the waters and wildlife. Upstairs is the more fine dining experience. All of their food is in to-go containers right now. The Gator: A really good drink. A little bit more alcohol then I expected, but overall I liked it. Won't comment too much since I don't do much alcohol review Clam Chowder: Not your typical clam chowder. It is red and it leans more towards minestrone with clams. However, I really loved the soup. It was flavorful and hearty and the clams felt really fresh. I recommend this soup. Crab Dip: This was super delicious. I don't like seafood, but the crab tasted super fresh. I love the slices of bread you got with the dip and the cheese on top was amazing. This was my favorite appetizer they offered. Pimento Cheese Dip: I personally like pimento cheese so this was delicious. The strawberry jam worked well with the cheese and the crackers they gave you helped pile on the cheese. My friend didn't like this, but that just means more to me. Waffle Fries: It was made of sweet potato and was fried nicely. But the highlight of this dish is their homemade honey mustard sauce. That was one of the best dipping sauces I ever had. Highly recommend this for anyone who comes here. Side Salad: Won't say much but their house dressing was delicious. Keylime Cake: This was really yummy to end the night. We took it to go and ate it back at the room. I love the lime flavor and the blackberry sauce complemented everything. I want everyone to try this if they can. Overall, I want to come back here again. The yummy seafood that they catch everyday is what defines this place. I am so happy my friend took me here. Kudos to the staff and owners for establishing this place.

We were there yesterday the bar server was a bit rude we had water containers insisted we dump them I get heat strokes and need my water. We did stay for dinner upstairs by the window it was very nice. The clams streamed were amazing better then steamers. Server there made us wait 30 minutes and I had to remind them we were there. Anyway tonight while taking our service dog for a golf cart ride I walk in and was asked to leave and that same server questioned her abilities to be a service animal I told her the MiaBella had her credentials on her collier and I had the in my wallet we were asked to leave. MiaBella helps me get in doors watches my steps so I don't fall due to knees and get my meds in the morning did she need a circus act? I gave this place a second chance but, if you need you service animal go to the next restaurant.

83 burger & house made chips
Jamie H.

When I think of an island bar for lunch, this place fit the bill! Walking in, the ocean breeze makes its way through the whole building. The bar area has open windows to enjoy the weather, but also offers shelter from intermittent rain. This seat-yourself restaurant boasts a full bar, nostalgic music & nearby pelicans for entertainment during the lunch hour. We were able to place our drink orders with the bartender at the table, but food orders are placed at the bar. I decided to celebrate our brief Florida vacation with a tropical rum runner with a prosecco split on the side. Lunch was well seasoned grilled shrimp, sweet potato waffle fries, tasty maple mustard sauce & a cup of seafood bisque. My hubby enjoyed the 83 burger that was topped with spicy pimento cheese & my kids split the chicken fingers & fries basket. Everything was well cooked & great for a late lunch! Our only issue was that, for a family of four with three entrees & one adult beverage (which was $23 due to adding the prosecco), the bill came out to $100. Ouch! I bet that ingredients are getting expensive, but at 2pm on a Friday...that felt really steep, even for a tourist area.

espresso martini for dessert
Arayell B.

well worth the 2 hours round trip for us we started with the crab dip and it was so delicious we almost wanted to lick the bowl clean! the pineapple cider on draft is a MUST try. my boyfriend had the steak and his only complaint was he wished it was bigger. i had the clam & shrimp scampi & it was perfectly seasoned with the slightest bite (which made it PERFECT!). we loved the window view & service was great. we can't wait to come back!!

Florida mule and Cold nose brown ale
T C.

We were staying close by and came by for dinner. We sat by the windows by the water. We started with a Florida Mule and Cold Nose Brown Ale. They were both cold and good. As an appetizer we had the Crab dip, bit salty but good. We order pecan crusted red fish and shrimp and clam linguine. The red fish and green beans were very good the shrimp and clams were ok, a little light on the meat and a bit to much oil. I ordered a after dinner drink of the Mariner Coffee, it was way to strong. We took a few sips and left the rest. Overall it was ok but not great.

Chicken Tender Tacos and Mac and Cheese
Justin G.

Food and service was fantastic, even on a busy night. Jonathan behind the bar was great and Liz was amazing as usual. Definitely the BEST food in the area by far. I've had the crab dip, chicken salad, and most recently the Mac and cheese and Chicken Tender Tacos. No complaints at all, this place does it right.

Key Lime pie!
Jeannie S.

Both food and service were excellent. Highly recommend the Heart of Palm salad, fries green tomatoes and grilled fish sandwich!

View of the waterfront from some of the tables in the restaurant (depends where you sit).

I visited this place while in town for the Cedar Key Seafood Festival in October 2022. During this yearly festival the population of Cedar Key balloons by tens of thousands of people. There are only a few seafood restaurants in town, so you would be best booking a reservation days in advance if you go during the festival. My friends and I did not and therefore had about a two hour wait for a table. This was okay because we could explore the small town and still make it back in time before the very small five minute window ended in which you had to return to the restaurant after receiving a text. Depending on where you are seated inside you can have a beautiful view out over the waterfront. Their menu includes locally-caught seafood and we started with an appetizer of 12 local steamed clams that came in a white wine, butter, parsley, and garlic sauce, plus an order of the bourbon gator kabobs. The clams had a nice brine flavor indicating their freshness and the gator was perfectly tender with a sweet pineapple and bourbon glaze over it and the grilled onions and bell peppers. We also tried the fried oysters (crunchy on the outside but almost creamy to bite into when dipped in the homemade tartar sauce) that came with house-made potato chips, as well as the shrimp piccata. The piccata had 7 large seared shrimp over spaghetti with fried capers, parmesan cheese, shallots, and garlic. It was a massive portion that left quite a bit to take home. The service was on-point and the atmosphere in the restaurant was a nice, relaxing break from the bustling streets. I would highly recommend 83 West to anyone visiting Cedar Key and I look forward to going back again myself.

My husband and I went here on a Monday afternoon around 3 during the summer. It was empty, but the views were beautiful (and air conditioned) and the food was absolutely delicious. I had the shrimp salad croissant sandwich and my husband had fish tacos. They were both well worth the cost. Our bourbon pecan pie was also delicious. Our server Elizabeth was just the sweetest! Don't skip this spot!

Oysters and crab dip.

One of the best dinners I've had in a long time. We ordered the miso [something] oysters, crab dip, grouper and shrimp n grits. All of it was delish but the oysters were outstanding. Incredible view and the service was perfect.

Just excellent. Sat at the bar and got lovely service. The drinks and food were amazing. Had the crab dip, autumn pizza and seafood pasta. Fresh from scratch meals. House made hot sauces out of this world. Will come back as soon as we are in the area again.

See all

During happy hour drinks are $6 or $8 for classics or revival favorites. The drinks here are top notch and the atmosphere is iconic. And did I mention, this is in Lakeland Florida. This bar could be transported to Miami, Orlando or Ft Lauderdale and would be Uber popular. The service is awesome and the bartenders here are well trained because they make the drinks effortlessly. Love the overall vibe here. Makes me want to move closer because who doesnt want a happy hour from 1-7pm on the weekdays. The drinks here can paint a smile on anyone. So very good! And I am smiling while writing this review.

Revival is my FAVORITE bar/ speak easy spot in Lakeland, hands down. It's such a vibe and has been…read morea super cool and ahead of its time spot for many years now. It feels like a speakeasy inside, but it's not quite as mysterious as most are. You enter in the front door after checking with the bouncer outside. The drinks here are gourmet, there's no other way to say it. They have an extensive and unique list of options, but they can also make pretty much anything you ask for. The last time I was there I had a lavender blueberry moscow mule, of which I had asked the bartender if I could have a flavored mule and that was his suggestion. There's a decent amount of seating here but the place gets pretty busy. The one thing I can knock them in is they have really slow service. The bartenders work so hard on each drink that even if there's a few dozen people there it takes time to order and then get your drink. So that's just something to be aware of but I promise it's so worth the wait. Absolutely love this place!

We went to 'downtown' Cedar Key Monday night to go out for dinner. Our first 2 choices were closed…read moreon Monday, so we went to the 2nd street cafe, and at first we were confused because all the servers had tshirts that said Steamers and our menu said Steamers. So since we are new to the area, we had to ask. 2nd street cafe and Steamers are owned by the same person and the original Steamers location had a devastating fire just before hurricane Helene hit. So they operate both restaurants out of the same location. 2nd street cafe for breakfast and lunch and Steamers for dinner. Our server did say they are planning to build a new building somewhere, but i'm not really sure where. We had the gator bites to start, they were pretty good. And I had pasta Alfredo with grilled salmon on top, which was fantastic. And my husband had the seafood pasta. Also, there was a special for margaritas, and they were very tasty as well.

Not a problem The hold time we waited there was always one table empty. When asked hostess was rude addressing we had to wait 45 min although we had been waiting 40 mins and table was still vacant. 55 mins in we received text of table ready. Guess what that empty table was our table. It's not an overload cause every table was used. Maybe we just not her kind of people cause we don't wear orange and blue. As for food horrible no season no flavor looked cheap go the cost of the meal. We had no issues with waitress. Restaurant needs help.
