Spilled my drink and charge me for a second one. Also credit card fee. Don't come here, so disappointing
Eric B.

Excited to try a new restaurant. This one is not one to try. Food is decent to terrible. Service was great. The table attendant spilled half of my drink and my friend complained. They brought me a new one. After we already paid, I discovered that they had charged me for the second one. Definitely not coming back.

Dining area

Not usually a noteworthy thing for me, but the bread service here was amazing. Finally nice to find bread and butter in the area that didn't taste like it just finished thawing. Really soft, fresh, and the butter was mixed with garlic and olive oil I believe. My chicken piccata had perfect breading and texture, caressed by the lemon and caper flavors threading through the sauce. Next time, I'll definitely try their fish of choice in the same preparation as my family seemed to enjoy that version as well. The tiramisu was also an excellent choice of dessert. Soft, moist, and not overly rich. The restaurant itself is beautiful with a lovely view of the harbor walk and marina. Great outdoor seating with a dim intimate feel overlooking the water. The entire staff was excellent and friendly as well. We got some excellent recommendations for wine and food.

Lobster Risotto  & Vongole
Ewelina K.

Easily number 1 restaurant in Key West! We have had an amazing anniversary dinner and I am saying AMAZING - 10/10 experience. Everything was perfect - food, ambiance & staff which is super rare in Key West especially. We started off with octopus & Cesar salad. My man is a Cesar salad connoisseur to say the least and he LOVED it! Then we had Vongole pasta& lobster risotto - yum! And we finished off with Tiramisu. Lobster risotto was a little too mild for my taste but overall everything was just perfect! Also I want to give a shout out to the staff that made me the best mocktail - strawberry virgin mojito! It was not too sweet and tasted almost like the real one just no alcohol! It's rarely a thing that they can make you mocktail that won't give you diabetes even in the really nice restaurants so I give them extra +10 to the overall score! It's our new favorite place in Key West to go

This food is the best in Key West. Fresh. Flavorful. Definitely not the standard fare. You want good? Fresh? Come here!!!

Charcuterie was plentiful.

I wanted something filling with seafood and I was not disappointed! I had the shrimp pesto and my wife had the lobster pasta- with more lobster than I have ever seen in a pasta dish. The servers were great, attentive but not over the top.

So we ordered this beer and it was different. Not bad. Just different. We enjoyed it though
Gonzalez M.

It was everything the ambiance. The food. Our server. The whole package. Loved this place very much.

View from our table

I had the surf & turf. Unreal steak! Service was great. Overlooking the bay. Very solid spot to have a nice dinner.

Beautiful view from our table

This place was recommended to us by a really nice man named Al. Well let me tell you, Al is the man! The food was delicious, our server was super nice and on the ball and the restaurant was beautiful over looking the water. Definitely a must in Key West!

Grouper and shrimp special sun dried tomato risotto was the best meal I've had in KW.  I've had a lot of good meals in KW

See all

And it's not only the drink menu with its custom crafted cocktails, wines, beers & ciders that will wow you but the accompanying snacks and bites are just as divine. And bonus, it's not only a bar, but also a liquor store with an awesome selection of wines and spirits. This bar definitely has a locals vibe. It's small , dark and cozy and the small tables with velvet chairs are very welcoming. We loved it so much. We came back for a second night. We tried the Maria Rita, which was a reposado tequila with fresh lemon, lime, hibiscus, and habanero, perfect version of a margarita. We also tried blowing smoke up your glass, this was made with Papa Pilar, dark rum, pineapple, fresh lime, house made basil syrup & tiki bitters. Absolutely fabulous. We also tried their deviled eggs each topped with unique toppings like trout row, bacon, and scallions. They were absolutely fabulous. They also have a great selection of charcuterie, Key nuts which you can order with different flavor, profiles, caviar, olives & peppers. Also, the most generous happy hour I've ever heard of from 12 to 6 PM every day. Don't miss out on this little jewel when in Key West.

There is a small bar with about 12 stools, a small lounge area with about 4 small seating nooks, and then a high top bench area that is along the wall. Service and set up of this place is not conducive to being able to attend to patrons. Could only order food if you were seated at the bar. We sat at the high tops and you had to go to the bar to get your drinks. Problem is that the bar has patrons sitting as well so you are hovering over them waiting for a drink. It was very uncomfortable to impose upon others to try to get a drink. I am sure they didn't appreciate the audience as they were eating as well. The bartenders were way too busy and overwhelmed. Not only are they serving the seated patrons and the 4 small nooks, they are also making drinks for the attached restaurant. There were a gazillion tickets coming out of the printer and servers standing on the other side of the window waiting. It's just not possible to serve everyone with just two bartenders. We waited about 10 minutes for service. The drinks were underwhelming for a speakeasy. Just your typical menu. What we ordered was okay. They just missed a great opportunity to create unique twists on classics or to have craft cocktails. Even the classics (which are perfect for a speakeasy) weren't that great. For a speakeasy, the drinks are the main event. Glad we tried it as we always seek out speakeasies. Wouldn't go again.

You had us at Kenny Chesney Island Girl, and we just had to find a spot and enjoy. And we Most certainly did! It was sublime and refreshing.

I had a banana frozen rum drink and a mango rum. My husband had a painkiller and a rum runner. Our bartender was friendly and we chatted about places to eat.

It is a great ambience with drinks for any type of rum drinker.
