    Keys fever
    Jason F.

    I stopped by here a couple of Tuesday's ago with father and father in law for lunch. We had just gotten off a boat, having been fishing all morning, whenever I found dolphin Deli and so we headed on over. It's located in a strip mall and the inside consists of a place to order as well as a number of booths for you to sit at. For lunch on this day I decided to go with the Keys Fever. The menu described it as fresh corn beef with pepper jack cheese served on rye bread with Dijon mustard, lettuce, tomato and onion. Only a short wait after ordering, I had my sandwich along with accompanying chips and we headed back to our hotel. As for my sandwich itself, I thought it was decent. I thought that the rye bread was nice and soft with a good flavor and also enjoyed the pairing of corn beef and pepper jack cheese. What I wasn't as huge of a fan was the amount of Dijon mustard on it which I thought was a bit much for my liking and so I scrapped some off. Then the vegetables were exactly as you would expect from a deli. The bottom line for me is that I might stop by here again in the future. My food was decent enough and they had a reasonable sized menu and some other items I would give a try.

    Steak egg and cheese sandwich

    Cozy little locals deli and sandwich shop. Amazing Steak Egg and Cheese sandwich. The people who work there are friendly locals who remember your name. Only downside is little parking, but if you're worried about parking in Key West then I've got bad news for you.

    Something like a three or four. They actually have some of the best cafe con leche in the Keys. Breakfast sandwiches were solid but what I really wonder about is lunch. I heard so many very good things about their lunch sandwiches I don't even know where to begin other than actually coming in for lunch. Must put them on the to-do list.

    Small, affordable deli. They offer many breakfast items and sandwiches. One of the best cafe con leche in Key West. I ordered a cheese and ham omelet. It was darn fluffy and I loved it. You order at the counter, they bring your food, and you pay at the counter when you leave. It is a very local place. But they are super nice to everyone. BTW, they give you a discount, if you pay with cash. I will be definitely come back. 4 stars.

    This deli is just a couple blocks from my office, so it makes it really convenient when I cannot leave. Each time I've ordered from there. It's been very good. Today was especially good. I ordered the Cuban which is the number one on the menu for lunch and fries. The fries were a little sketchy. They were a bunch of tiny pieces, like the bottom of the fry basket, but they were still good order was perfectly prepared. Food was hot. Very tasty, and much appreciated.

    Food was tasty but the lady running the cash register was super irritated she was even working. Having never been there before, I had to ask a few questions twice because she flat out ignored me and when she would answer she wouldn't hardly look at you. Treated the customer behind me the same way as we waited for our sandwiches to be made. She was more focused on chatting with another worker vs helping the customers get lunch.

    Very good breakfast sandwiches. We had ham, egg and cheese on cuban bread. Not a very clean place to sit. Very good service.

    Came in on a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty busy. I ordered with a lovely blonde girl working…read morethe meat slicer. At first she apologized and said she would be right with me (I assured her there was no need to apologize as she was working so hard)! When I ordered with her I asked for the gluten free bread option and she asked if I needed for her to change her gloves. She also explained to me how they don't do the "mini" size in gluten free, the smallest they do with gluten free bread is the regular so that was fine for me. My interaction with her alone really meant so much to me! I really appreciated her attention to my gluten sensitivity. At this point I thought wow, this place deserves five stars. But then I had two more stops down the line. My next stop was the girl who was putting the toppings in the sandwich. She and the man in the back who was putting together a kids meal decided it would be a good time to throw lettuce at each other. Personally, I worked at a restaurant when I was young. I get it. But not in front of customers. Don't throw lettuce into each others stations while there's people around. It was really unprofessional and unsanitary (they were throwing the same lettuce at each other). I will say the boy started it, but it didn't help the girl did it back at him. Anyways after that I had to deal with the cashier who I can only hope was on his first shift. It was difficult for him to understand the sandwich I got, as he was pressing so many different buttons. But at least he went back and asked the girl like three times what kind of sandwich it was before changing it to the right order. Thankfully I was able to see the screen/ which order I ended up paying for. Overall, sandwich was good, stacked with stuff. But they need to do better with training their employees. I wish I got the name of the girl working the meat slicer because she was the only one who had it together!

    The date is July 23rd 2025 at about 6pm. The 3 high school/ college aged kids working there, they…read morewere very polite respectful and engaged in conversation! They worked as a team to make one of the best subs I've ever had from this company! As a key west resident me and many others are plagued with migrant fatigue and poor service from them I'm glad to see one company has a good hiring manager and staff!
