Everything was flavorful and beautifully prepared--a really fun way to enjoy our catch. William, our server, was fantastic and truly added to the experience. He was attentive and thorough, explained everything, answered all of our questions, and even brought us a magazine to show us a review featuring the dish we were having. That extra attention made the evening feel special. Great food, an awesome hook-and-cook experience, and exceptional service from William. We would absolutely recommend Kaya!

The restaurant was nearly empty when we arrived, so we anticipated a pretty quick experience. Unfortunately, a large group arrived shortly after we were seated, and with what appeared to be only one waitress covering the area, service was much slower than expected. Between placing our orders and waiting for drinks, we honestly came close to getting up and leaving. But WOW, am I glad we stayed! This ended up being one of my favorite meals of our entire Key West trip! The fish tacos were seasoned to perfection, my cocktail absolutely hit the spot, and everyone in our group loved their food. The atmosphere was wonderful, and despite the slow service, the hospitality was warm, friendly, and genuine. By the end of the meal, with full bellies and happy faces, the wait was a distant memory. Sometimes good things really are worth waiting for! We'd absolutely return!

The food was just okay for us. I ordered the filet medium/medium-well, but one piece was much too undercooked for me to eat, while another was good. The lobster also had a texture that I personally didn't enjoy. Maybe we simply picked the wrong dish, because overall, we still had a nice experience. I also have to give them credit for the little details -- my 4-year-old daughter got a cup that changes color with the ice, and she thought it was so entertaining! I haven't seen that in many restaurants, and it was such a fun touch for kids.

Came over to Caroline's because it was one of the less crowded spots but still located right there amidst the action. It's all outdoors and wooden boardwalk type tables, although the fans helped keep it somewhat cooler and less humid. A natural vibe for the geographical region though. We were able to get seated right away, however the service was a bit slow and we noticed people around us who were seated after us getting their food well before us. It finally did come and it was solid. Nothing to write home about but a solid option on the strip for some food and drinks. Wouldn't say I'd go seek it out, but if you're looking around and need decent prices and food and can't decide or everywhere is packed, you'll be safe with it.

They cannot even responsibility on why you want your money back. The waitress who worked there that night tried calling door dash twice because our food was sitting there over an hour.

We actually went there the next to offer to pay for the food and they declined it because of door dashes complete failure to pickup and deliver our food. OH BY THE WAY, THE FOOD WAS GREAT!!!!

The prices were friendly, the atmosphere was fun, and the combination of cold drinks and spicy food gave me enough courage to face whatever horrors waited outside. Unfortunately, after ordering my second beer, the lights began flickering and a mysterious voice whispered, "One more round." I assumed it was a ghost until I realized it was just someone at the bar making a recommendation. Then the salsa started moving on its own. I bravely consumed it anyway. By the end of the night, I had defeated the haunted salsa, secured another inexpensive beer, and escaped with my soul mostly intact. Mary Ellen's is a great stop for cheap drinks, Mexican food, and the possibility of being spiritually possessed by a particularly aggressive jalapeño. Five stars, though I recommend keeping an eye on the chips.
