    Nashville chicken and waffles.
    Holly K.

    The BEST chicken and waffles I've ever had!!! Went 3x for breakfast, just for these (Continental Breakfast was also very tasty). The chicken was lightly battered and a little spicy ("Nashville fried chicken"), and the (2) waffles were fluffy with brown sugar butter and maple syrup. All of the flavors blended together so nicely, each bite bursting with flavor. 10/10 dish. We also tried some items of the HH menu, such as the truffle fries and the smash burger, and enjoyed those as well. The star of the show was the breakfast though. In addition to the great food, the restaurant is right on the water, beautiful view of the ocean. Many days there is live music, and we had great customer service most mornings. One exception- our last morning our food took 3x as long, and was cold when it arrived; seemed to be ready much earlier, but service decided to deliver it the same time as 2 other tables, that sat wayyyyy after us. They are also dog-friendly and cater to your furry friends (they may even get to see Reggie the rooster walking around the restaurant). Can't wait to visit Key West again just for the Nashville chicken and waffles!!

    This place was absolutely amazing! We sat outside and the view was beautiful. Our server, Paul was very attentive and friendly. We ordered a little bit of everything to try and it was top notch! Totally coming back! Highly recommended.

    Sunrise

    I came here because of Instagram post about the delicious key lime pie. It opens at 7 AM so it is perfect to have coffee and breakfast while enjoying the sunrise because it's right by the water with a nice pier to view the ocean. It's also only a block away from the Southern Most Point landmark. Beautiful and classy interior. Staff is a very friendly and helpful. The key lime pie looks like a cheesecake. It's big so it's definitely shareable. I love it. It's creamy and not overly sweet. I definitely come back here.

    First time at 4 Marlins and it was very nice, open table reservation was perfect. The views were absolutely amazeballs. Our server Lisa was providing top notch service..Thank You Lisa! Started with mimosa's and poinsettias, YUM. I had the salmon eggs Benedict with hash browns and oh my, what a delight. My wife had the fish tacos and there was 3 nice size tacos(mahi).

    Ok, so let's start with location, location, location! This place is right in the beach at the Reach Resort near Duval Street in Key West. So beautiful spot for just about any occasion. Wait staff is friendly and attentive. I'm going to come clean and tell you that I've only eaten one thing in the menu, but loved it so much that came back a couple of days later to have it again. The panko crusted fish sandwich was outstanding! I know, just a sandwich, but the fish was significant size and perfectly cooked arugula and kimchi aioli which was incredibly tasty. Sorry for the lack of pictures, but will make sure to add when I go back for more. Cheers!

    Tripletail - excellent Short rib - great Filet - great Lobster mac - great Key lime pie - great Hummingbird cake - pretty good Have visited here at least annually for four years now and it's pricey but delicious and WORTH IT. And of course you cannot beat the view!

    The food and View

    Nice resort locale, that isn't packed, steps away from the crowded Southern Most point Marker in Key West. Just Stroll a block over and walk through the hotel lobby to a great restaurant, just about any time of the day. We stopped for brunch on a Sunday and I recommend Eggs Benedict and the Lobster Mac. The whole menu looked great too. The view was amazing and I cannot emphasize that this was not a crowded spot on a spring break weekend, which is really refreshing.

    Octopus a la Plancha

    2.5/5, +.5 for service Ehh. Perhaps I'm missing something here, or I should've toned down my expectations to fit a small town restaurant feel. Dined here with my family while vacationing down at the Florida Keys, as I was told this would be an excellent place for seafood. It wasn't too busy around 8pm as people were finishing up dining here. We shared some appetizers and had one entree. We had the octopus, conch fritters, scallops, lobster mac n cheese, and the filet mignon. The lobster mac n cheese was good. The octopus was fine as were the scallops. The conch fritters were mediocre, not a lot of conch and a lot of fritters. The filet mignon, I had to say, was very poor. The beef quality was not the greatest, and I asked for medium, but it was cooked to around medium well to well done. For $65 that was a huge nope in my books. Service was excellent, and honestly if it weren't for 3 of the 5 dishes meeting expectations this would be a 2-star review. Consider this as a weak 3-star review where I can't see myself returning leisurely.

    Had the Key-lime pie slice and frozen drink, the bill was $50, the pie was good but not worth the $15 price tag and the drink was definitely not worth $22, the place is a bit overpriced. The view is beautiful, maybe that's what you are paying for.

    Outdoor patio to the left has an amazing view.  Don't miss this sculpture to the left of the restaurant.

    Mixed bag on this one. Bar: Both cocktails were super weak for $17 plus tax and tip. And they serve them in a Dixie cup, so there are three sips before you're left with a pile of ice. A complete rip off. And the bar tenders favorite line that we heard over and over was "my least favorite drink to make is a Pina colada" as hotel guest after guest ordered these by the batches and she made a tip on each. Also took longer to get service than it took to drink it. 0/5, negative if I could. Breakfast: A bit pricey with most mains costing around $23 for eggs and toast. But boy were they good and filling. Also tried the oatmeal, which was average. The breakfast burrito looked amazing so the table got several to-go orders of that one. Service was much better for breakfast and friendly. The views are very nice of the Atlantic Ocean. This is a good option for breakfast if you are staying at the Reach, but wouldn't recommend coming here otherwise. They also offer lunch and dinner, but after the cocktail experience we skipped the place until our final "checkout" meal.

    Food was just ok, along with being very pricey. We were on the last leg of our 10 day Belize diving vacation. I would definitely go back to Lorelei's Restaurant & Cabana Bar. Their spinach salad was killer. Sorry I didn't get pictures. Our waiter was really bad. He had the attitude of hating his job.

    Greek Salad with Chicken
    Samantha B.

    Came here with some friends who were staying in the area on a Sunday afternoon. The place is beautifully decorated but other than that, doesn't offer much. Service was slow with not many patrons in the restaurant. I think overall our brunch took close to three hours by how slow everything came out & how long it took to get the check & pay. Three guys in our party ordered beer bottles, one ordered a beer on tap. Tell me why it took about 30 minutes to get the beer BOTTLES. And then when the server came with the beers he unscrewed them at the table. The beer that was on tap came shortly after those, finally. To eat I ordered a Greek salad and added chicken. The salad arrived and it was upsetting to see the lettuce was not fresh. It had that pink/brown staining on them. The dressing was not good either. Chicken was fine so I ate that mostly. To share we got a slice of key lime pie since it was featured in an article recently stating it was great. Tell me why we all tried it and agreed it tasted nothing like a key lime pie. It wasn't tart at ALL. It basically tasted like a cheesecake. And the strawberry sauce at the bottom was so so sweet as well. Extremely overwhelming, extremely disappointing!!! Beautiful presentation but I would not call this a key lime pie. Our server was MIA most of the time but he finally came around to give us the check. Overall, I would not recommend this place. Between the bad service and even worse food, there's plenty of other local businesses that deserve a chance.

    Had a great experience at the bar with friends, so we came back every day for a Lemon Drop Martini made by Bartender Zolle!.

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.
