Can't come to Key West without stopping in to get some of the best tacos on the island at Garbo's…read more It's always just been a food truck but they now have a small patio seating area next to Hanks Hair of the Dog bar. We got one order of the Cayo fish tacos to share. Each order comes with two tacos. We chose a bench in the shade on the patio where some chickens were wandering around picking up bits of food dropped by the patrons. It was fun to watch them run in a group when one spotted something had fallen. Our tacos were ready quickly and after the first bite we immediately regretted not getting a table because they are a bit messy with all the delicious toppings. Oh well! I persevered and used a napkin to soak up the juice and the chickens took care of of the rest. I will never miss an opportunity to visit Garbo's when in Key West.

While it was enjoyable, nothing really stood out as extraordinary or memorable. The menu had a good variety, and the service was friendly enough, making it a comfortable place to stop for a casual meal. The atmosphere was straightforward and unpretentious, which made it easy to enjoy a quick bite without any fuss. Portions were reasonable, and prices were fair for the quality of food. Overall, it is a dependable spot for a casual meal when you are nearby, even if it does not leave a lasting impression. It is worth visiting if you are in the area and looking for something simple and satisfying.

It's a very spot, with just enough standing room for a few people inside and a couple of high-top tables outside to enjoy your pizza. It's located a few storefronts down from Duval Street, and there was a steady flow of people coming in and out, so it was definitely busy, but not overwhelming. I still received my pizza in about 10 minutes, which I appreciated. We ordered a large pizza, half Philly cheesesteak and half chicken. The Philly cheesesteak pizza is actually the one that's been the most hyped on TikTok, so I was especially excited to try it. I originally wanted to just grab a slice, but they only offer cheese and pepperoni by the slice, so keep that in mind. The pizza came out hot, fresh, and looked really good. However, the taste didn't quite match the hype for me. The steak and chicken both lacked seasoning, which made the overall flavor fall a bit flat. It wasn't horrible, but it definitely could have been much better with a little more seasoning. Overall, it's a decent late night bite, but in my opinion, not quite worth all the hype it gets on TikTok.

The staff was extremely friendly, we were seated outside promptly, and there was some nice, gentle live music. There were a few drink options (no liquor) and we enjoyed. The food came out at a good time and it was the best food we've had so far. I got a cheese arepa with black beans. The arepa itself was unlike any I've had before and its texture was soft and had a gummier cornbread feel. The taste was incredible and the beans were cooked perfectly. I also got the Cuban pork tacos on corn tortillas - the pork was perfectly tender with a delicious glaze. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a casual bite in key west!

The lobster roll was absolutely incredible and easily one of the best I have ever had. The lobster was fresh, buttery, and packed with flavor, and they definitely do not skimp on the portion size. The bread was perfectly toasted and held everything together without overpowering the lobster. Every bite was amazing. You can tell they really know what they are doing when it comes to seafood. We were already talking about coming back before we even finished eating. The atmosphere was fun and casual, the staff was friendly, and the whole place had that classic Key West vibe.
