Steak quesadilla and Mexican coke.
Letty G.

Reliable, affordable, friendly and delicious. This Mexican restaurant was just what we were looking for and did not disappoint. We asked a few folks who were eating, while we debated about going in, if they'd recommend it and unanimously they all said yes and were right. I wouldn't say it was the best Mexican food but it was very good and I'd eat there again.

We live stopping here for lunch. The have outdoor seating and it's a great spot for people watching. Today was just beers but their margaritas are fantastic. We always get the nacho platter with shrimp. It's a winner!

Delicious corn

I've been living in Key West now for four years and avoided amigos for two years because I thought it was a tourist trap given the location. I was very wrong... AMIGOS IS AMAZING!!! When I first tried it I realized their tacos are delicious authentic street style with great flavor. I love the shredded chicken and pork the best. They also have bowls, which is great if I don't want a tortilla. The guacamole is delicious. The street corn is delicious. I haven't had anything here yet that I didn't like! I've since come back to amigos four times and will continue to come back. The service is great and it's great people watching on Duval Street.! Also given the prime location I think the prices are very reasonable. You can buy one taco à la carte if you're not that hungry. Thanks amigos!! I'll be back!!

Square tortillas (carnitas, shrimp, carne asada)

We were out on Duval on Halloween and thought it would be a great idea to get some food in our bellies before our (late) night out for the holiday. We had heard that this spot was really good and had a unique square taco shell so we stopped there. We were greeted by a very nice lady and there were spots on the sidewalk bar for us to sit! Great spot to people watch, especially on halloween lol! My husband and friend ordered a few of the square tacos and they loved them so much, they ordered more! I got the carne asada bowl and it was perfect! This was a great little spot!

Good place for decent Mexican food in Key West. Not the best I've had but it got the job done. I got a grilled chicken burrito and it was good but I wish it came with sour cream or some other sauce. The complementary salas they provide were way too spicy. The portion size for the burrito bowl is kinda small. They have some bar seating overlooking the street which was a fun place to sit. Paid street parking only of course, but we were able to find a spot a few streets down.

Every time I go to the Keys, Amigos is a must have for me, and I often go 2 or 3 times in a trip. I'm a little obsessed, but I was really disappointed by my most recent visit. It's been a hot minute since I've found myself down in the neck of the woods but I knew my first dining destination would be my seasoned fave. This place has been a Key West staple for forever, and always busy, and yet on our recent visit we were shocked to see the restaurant empty. After our meal though it's not a surprise to see why. The trademark square tortillas have always been delicate with the perfect amount of chew. This time they were square slabs of dough barely thrown on the grill. If my tacos had been wrapped in napkins instead of their tortillas I probably wouldn't have been able to tell the difference, they were that bad. Me and my friend I was with, who is also a (now former) Amigos fan, both found the tortillas in-edible and a vast departure from the tried and true tacos we had come to love. Very disappointing. The fillings were perfectly cooked however so we just ate that and left most of the shell. They also used to have a fun selection of hot sauces, but now they just have house hot sauces with your choice of red or green fire. Also Tamara was rude a.f. All around a disappointing meal. The love affair with Amigos is officially over. R.I.P.

Guac and Chips
Donna Y.

So many gluten-free options and DELICIOUS!!! A friend recommended this place to us as one of the places to get gluten-free options in Key West and it did not disappoint! We liked it so much we ate there twice - and had it our last night there. So flippen good! The square tortillas - taste more like a tamale - how they do it with just ground corn and water is some kind of magic! So tasty. The Guacamole, the fresh chips, the CORN!!!!! You MUST have the corn and you MUST have the Mexican Coca-Cola straight from the glass bottle - YUM! The Shrimp, chicken and fish - all cooked to perfection - the rice and beans - the black beans were perfectly spiced - the crema on the corn ... OMG I want some NOW! A must-try if you are in the area!

- [ ] This cute little restaurant is a great option for an affordable and tasty lunch/dinner off Duval St. I came in on a rainy day and they were very busy for dinner. They have tables indoor and outdoor. They also have rail seating. We were sat on the rail and given the menu promptly. Our waitress was very sweet and explained everything with care. I ordered the beef bowl and a side of chips and (hot) salsa. I was so happy that the chips are made in-house and tasted so fresh, also that hot salsa is actually hot/spicy and had a great flavor. The beef bowl was delicious and a great big portion. Truly would come back here soon if I lived closer.

Grilled chicken quesadilla

If you're looking for great Mexican food while in Key West, you have to try Amigos. It's a cute little place with bar like counters. There are some tables but the counters are where you want to be with street facing views that's great for people watching. The salsa is like nothing I've had before and I've been to a lot of Mexican restaurants. We had a great server that provided recommendations. The grilled chicken quesadillas are where it's at. If you're not real hungry like I was, get the small. It's still very filling. Great food with great authentic flavors! The only thing I'm never a big fan of is the ala carte where the chips and salsa aren't complimentary.

Corn on the cob
Lulu P.

Second time here. 1st time was not a great experience. Corn tortillas were cold :( and tacos weren't great. It was over a busy weekend. So glad I gave them another chance tho !! Carne asada tacos were delicious as well as the corn on the cob. The 2 table sauces were good but too spicy for me !

What are the margaritas like?

Excellent -- just like the Bloody Mary's! Sit at the bar, so you can watch the street crowd. Really fun bar staff!

Do they only have corn tortillas or do they offer flour as well?

They have both

It's a dive bar through and through but I happen to be a big fan of dive bars! However, this one fell flat on it's face with the service. I wouldn't say the place was packed but there were not any open seats at the bar. I posted up the best I could but for the better part of 15 minutes both bartenders didn't even come to my side of the bar. I then moved to the other side and waited another 10 minutes to be served (at which point the bartender said "Didn't I just serve you?" Um, no, you most definitely did not.

This is a true dive bar in the best sense--dark, loud, unapologetically weird, and absolutely unforgettable. The drinks flow, the stories blur, and at some point you realize you're no longer entirely sure how you ended up where you are... but you're fine with it. Now. The ladies' room. If you know, you know. Let's just say there was a handsome fellow, a conch shell, and an air of mystery that felt very on-brand for Key West. Details are intentionally vague--some things are better left unexplained--but whatever was happening worked. Worked very well. My nieces? They fell for it hook, line, and sinker. Completely enchanted. Equal parts confused and delighted. A core memory was made, whether they asked for it or not. Shirt Club is the kind of place where stories are born, logic is optional, and you leave with inside jokes you can't fully explain to anyone who wasn't there. It's chaotic, hilarious, and 100% Key West. Would we go back? Absolutely. Would we ever expect to understand everything that happens there? Not a chance -- and that's exactly the point.

There was live music playing, pool tables, and even some video games, so there's plenty to keep you and the family entertained while you hang out.

They also have a merch area with hoodies, stickers, and other souvenirs if you want to take a little piece of the experience home. And knowing it's one of the oldest bars in the Keys just adds to the charm and history of the place. The service was quick, you walk up to the bar and order then find a place to sit. Super chill and laid back. One fun thing you have to try is tossing a quarter into the fish's mouth outside... test your luck and see if you can land it! Can't forget the drinks! The rum punch is to die for... super refreshing and perfect for the Key West heat. Overall, such a fun stop if you're in town. Definitely worth checking out!
