Can't get a much better view for dining in Key West! Stayed at the resort and had lunch here. The Mahi sandwich was grilled perfectly and topping were fresh and fantastic. My wife had the cheeseburger and loved it. A bit pricey, but very convenient. Overall excellent experience including the service. read more

Made reservations on Open Table, when the called to confirm the reservation, I inquired about the Thanksgiving Menu. They share that they would be having a Thanksgiving dinner option. Upon arrival, we were told we couldn't have it because we didn't have a Thanksgiving reservation. This thoroughly confused me as we did have a confirmed reservation. The waitress went to check and cane back saying that indeed we did have a reservation. We ordered drinks. A few minutes later a new waitress appeared saying there was confusion and that she was our waitress. We asked for the Thanksgiving menu and were told we couldn't have Thanksgiving dinner because it was too early. I asked to speak to a manager, who told us we were too early. Again, I shared when I confirmed the reservation that we were interested in the Thanksgiving dinner. He told us we could have it but would have to wait 30 minutes to order. The waitress returned with our drinks, slammed them on the table and said she would be back in a half an hour. Her, as well as the manager's poor attitude along with drinks that were terrible, was reason enough for us to leave. We paid for our drinks and left. Highly disappointed and disgusted by their lack of hospitality towards their guests. Their inability to communicate with one should be an embarrassment. read more

Recommended to eat here by a tik-tokker I follow- Shay Spence. Thank goodness, because this place is on the 'far side' of the island, kinda hidden, and I would of never found this place for him. Highly recommend the lobster mac and cheese- Shay recommended, and I concur. I have no gallbladder, and lactose intolerant- this was worth the drama, let me tell you. The cheese sauce was infused with lobsta flavor, giant hunks of lobster, and crispy delightful topping. I was raised that ladies always leave a little on the plate- not this time, chica. I didn't exactly lick the bowl, their might have been mild moaning, but it was all lady like, I assure you. Then, there was the key lime pie. I should have stopped at the mac and cheese. No gallbladder. The lactose thing. But I heard this was THE BEST KEY LIME PIE IN ALL OF KEY WEST and I specifically came here for the pie and mac. So, in I dove with my fork by my side, like a knight going into battle with a sword. Incredible. No words. Perfect. Don't bother having key lime anything, anywhere else. It just doesn't get any better than this. Chef's kiss. read more

Seated on the patio with live music and an amazing view. Having eaten my way through 7 grouper dinners in the last week. I can say this was the favored. The drinks were delish. The waitstaff did marvelous .... The key lime pie wasn't too bad either. I'd come back here. Just sayin' read more

This place is awful. Worst cheap food. I think I'm so mad because it's grossly overpriced. $50-64 for an entree?!? We stayed at the resort so we got stuck with them. read more

We walked over here from our Airbnb on our first outing when we got to Key West. We were hungry and thirsty for some apps and margs! This place is great! What an amazing view of the water and great food we had! Highly recommend for the views. We also went the other restaurant down the way and this one had better views and better ambiance! read more

Upscale restaurant that had a water view. You can even plan and reserve a table right on the beach what's better than a romantic dinner in the sand. They have. A nice menu and full bar to choose from. I had the cucumber cocktail and I was surprised by how delicious it was. Hubby had a dirty gin martini that he really enjoyed. We dinner here twice during our stay and had two great meals. read more

Ask for a table with an ocean view, get a tasty cocktail, and then go straight for the Key Lime Pie.

Expensive for what you get. We paid almost $70 for 2 breakfasts and 2 coffees. But it all tasted good and the portions were huge. Our server was excellent. We also had dinner here. Again, expensive for what you get but it all tasted good. Nothing outstanding but good. The key lime pie was the highlight and was definitely one of the better ones we've ever had. Service was less than stellar for a nicer restaurant. Had a margarita that was pretty watered down and not at all worth the money. read more

Good food and ambience if you are in for a special night. Be sure to dress up. Our server was really good even though we went there on Christmas Day. Very cheerful person even though she was probably working on a day that she would have loved a day off. We loved the experience. We had a vegetarian chili and kids cheeseburger. Will recommend the chili for any vegetarians out there. read more

Staying at the Reach for a week, we had various meals here and I can say that most were barely satisfactory. Breakfast/Brunch: There is a good selection, I can recommend the egg sandwich and the hash browns were quite good too. However, the oatmeal was disappointing and the classic egg breakfast (which they call Coastal Sunrise) was nothing special. Lunch: this was the better meal of the day based on our experience - if you ignore the sad portion size. If I think about our favorites: Fish tacos were really good, so were the crab cakes but the portions are like an appetizer (even though they charge $27 for 3 mini fish tacos). As sides - fries were very crispy and tasty but the Caesar Salad was lacking flavor. Dinner: Worst menu / execution among the different meals we had there. I dont even know where to start. My partner thought the oysters tasted very off (and he knows his oysters!), the patatas bravas was inedible and in my opinion an insult to the real thing, the mahi fritters were soaked in oil-fried wrong, the blackened grouper - passable but not properly blackened, the chicken - very average. Key lime pie- not bad but also very average (and high in sugar) based on the others in the island. Drinks: they have a good selection for wine and beer, the cocktails were average and my fav would be the watermelon margarita. Prices: we both thought the prices were waaay to high for the offer. I understand that they are a part of Hilton which increases the prices, but we stayed in many Hiltons over the years and the restaurant/bars they have usually offer a more high-end experience, justifying the price. so in this case - I was quite disappointed. read more

Service was excellent. Food was way less than expected. We ordered fish tacos and turkey club. The turkey club came and they brought something we did not order instead of fish tacos. It was going to take another 10-15 minutes so we shared the turkey club and let waitress know. After 10 minutes, the fish tacos came and we told them we already canceled it. They were confused. Expected much more from a restaurant at a resort hotel. read more

Heard about this place through Shay Spence's TikTok account - key lime pie is my favorite dessert and he said Four Marlin's had the best in Key West so I had to try it out! We got there right when lunch started and were seated outside by the water so we had beautiful views while we dined. We started with the calamari (good) and the conch & crab fritters (excellent), and I had the fish tacos which were fresh and delicious. Now I've had quite a few different key lime pies while in Key West - some were too tart, some had stale or soggy graham cracker crust, some were decent but not spectacular. This pie though....was the best key lime pie I have ever had in my entire life. It was the perfect balance of tart, sweet, creamy, buttery, and rich. I wish I lived closer so I could eat this all the time but it was such a spectacular treat. The menu prices are a little high but the food is great and it's worth it completely for the pie alone! read more

The view is wonderful, that said if only the view is great but the food is mediocre then you only have the view. At the Four Marlins you can have it all and then some. We were a bit tired from our travel so staying at the Reach made dining here a nice idea. I had not read any reviews going in so my husband and I assumed the food would be okay, but our expectations were not elevated. Well we were pleasantly surprised to find the food excellent along with the service and of course the view! Daniel our server anticipated our every need and checked on us frequently without being bothersome. We never had to ask for anything because his anticipatory skills had already taken care of anything that we would have needed. Starting with the beet salad was a great idea, the citrus dressing was a refreshing touch over crispy greens. The conch chowder was deliciously flavored with conch in every bite. My husband's triple tail fish was fresh and delectable and served with broccolini and potatoes. All the food was nicely seasoned without being overly salty. Everything was top notch. We did not have dessert but we will definitely return for another meal and hopefully have room for the key lime pie!!! read more

So I'll start with that the food was good, not great. The ambiance is great, right on the water. They are lacking with staff- seems a little light. They also tend do be confused about where you can sit without reservations. read more

We came here today for lunch and Ashley was our server. The restaurant has a nice view and great atmosphere. It's clean and everything you'd expect from an upscale hotel - with exception of the customer service. We (5 adults and a 2-year old) were greeted by the hostess and who would eventually be our server, but no smiles. Just very straight-faced business. No big deal, we went along to our table outside. Great views and the restaurant was really pretty. We received our menus and gave our drink orders. Unfortunately our server dropped our whole tray of drinks and they had to be remade, causing a slight delay, but also not a huge deal...it happens When she came back with our new drinks, she almost dropped them again on the way to our table and said "Jesus Christ" - looking obviously frustrated. She then proceeded to take our food order and didn't seem to know a lot about the menu. My husband asked about what we thought was the lunch menu. The Hogfish Tacos showed as $18 so he asked to confirm if it was more than 1 taco (the main menu has another hogfish taco appetizer for $13). He said if it was just 1 taco he'd want to order something else. She came back a few min later and it turned out it was just 1 taco. She didn't have a menu in her hand so he could see what he wanted so she walked to go get it. We called her over about 5 or so min later asking again for the menu. Ashley's response was "oh she didn't bring it to you yet?" And she walked off. She later came back and my husband was able to order. The food took a little longer than expected but not a huge deal - the chicken on the chicken sandwiches was dry but edible. We asked for our checks and when received, we realized we ordered a lot of our food off the kid's menu! Ashley never even mentioned it was a kid's menu. She also must have either known we weren't happy or wanted us to spend more because she added on 18% gratuity! I understand gratuity for 6 adults, but not 5 and a toddler. So for the crappy service we received, Ashley received $28. On the way out I saw Leslie, the Manager. She was very nice and apologetic and even asked if we wanted the gratuity refunded. I told her it's ok and maybe Ashley was having a bad day. Unfortunately, with limited time in Key West, we won't be back to try again. Each visit needs to make a good impression. read more

Great spot on the beach. Fresh seafood. Good service. Love music. Highly recommended.

Beautiful setting. Tuna appetizer delicious. Pizza was fine. Service was spotty and people were feeding the birds. Sign clearly asked not to feed As our plates flew away had a hard time finding trash cans or someone to help me with my bussing of table. But location is wonderful. read more

For Dinner- We stayed at Casa Marina and decided to try Four Marlins since it was at the sister property, The Reach. We made a reservation online though we may not have needed to. The restaurant decor is fresh modern boathouse (is that a thing??) with tons of seating inside and out. Service was wonderful from beginning to end. My husband and I had a rather disappointing dinner the night before (somewhere else) so we were sort of desperate for a decent meal. We ordered a bunch of plates and shared them all. Here is what we ordered: Crab Rice - recommend Roasted Oysters - really recommend Pork Belly - good Lamb Chops - Star of the show! Angus Fillet - good Every dish was flavorful and well portioned. We will certainly come back again. read more

We were excited to eat at Four Marlins last night as we were staying at the sister property. Arrived and were seated outside and ordered our food and drinks. As the appetizers were delivered, the termites started flying all over us. The waitress said "oh they are just termites, we have been having a problem with them" as if it wasn't a big deal. We asked to move inside which they did but the termites were inside also flying all over us (as several other diners did the same thing). We asked for our bill before our main dishes came out so we could leave ($80 for 2 drinks and 2 appetizers). The whole experience was totally gross and disgusting to have termites flying literally all around and on us no matter if we were outside or inside. They need to get this under control as I would never recommend this place even though the appetizers were very tasty but unfortunately our entire evening was ruined and didn't get to eat our main courses as there was no way anyone would or should eat with tons of termites landing on them. read more

We absolutely loved this place. Our waiter (Daniel) was so kind and guided our selections. The view was stunning, directly on the water. We will definitely be back, so far our favorite spot in town. read more

Outstanding food and ambiance. Highly recommend!! Shrimp and grits were delish, as well as the grouper. Very ample portions.

Made it to the Florida Keys today and our hotel recommended this neat restaurant. WHAT A VIEW!!!!! The service was awesome, thanks Adam you are the best. My husband and I shared our dishes.... Seafood Mac and cheese, Baby gem lettuce salad, Grouper, Grilled Spiny Lobster and Key Lime pie. All of these dishes were from their small menu so they were the perfect size. Loved everyone of these dishes!!!! Bathrooms are super clean. I would definitely come back. read more

Great restaurant located inside the Curio resort on the beach. Convenient for those nights or days you just want to chill in the resort and not go anywhere. Food is good and the service is great. Half off happy hour is the best time to get a drink and talk with other travelers. I've had breakfast, lunch and dinner all at this spot and can not find a thing to complain about. Wonderful place ran by people that care. Get the Key Lime pie; it's required by law that you at least get one slice while in Key West. read more

The scenery is beautiful and the food is delicious. My girlfriends and I are thinking about staying at the hotel next time we're in town because everything is so nice. I went for brunch and had the Mash, I enjoyed it a lot. I also ordered bottomless mimosas and got to keep the champagne bottle which was fantastic. Nice staff and good food. read more

Honeymoon trip to the Reach resort, and we decided to stay on site our first night. Couldn't be happier with our decision. Daniel, our server, was extremely knowledgeable on the menu and provided great suggestions. I went with the scallops, which were huge and perfectly prepared. My wife went for the Florida salad which was incredibly fresh and well portioned. Manager came by, asked us about our meal and our stay. I mentioned it was our honeymoon and he continued the conversation with genuine interest. He then left the table, only to come back a few minutes later with a bottle of Prosecco on the house. Coupled with the slice of key lime pie to go we ordered, what a great start to the week! Can't thank the staff enough for starting us out on the right foot! read more

Wonderful outdoor seating so make your reservations early. We enjoyed the share menu and save room for dessert, some nice choices.

Great food and service and fabulous views!! The chicken club is the best!! The draft beer selection is perfect!

Food was a little overrated, but views are great. High prices. Had to send steak back, and took another 30 minutes to return. But MOD took food and wine off tab. Did what they could to help, staff was great. read more

The staff and Manager Josh at Four Marlins were the bright spot of our vacation at The Reach. Josh did a fantastic job with our beach dinner for our friends 70th birthday celebration. The server was also excellent and I'm sorry I forgot her name. We ate breakfast and lunch almost daily on our stay and the Chef never disappointed. I know a cheeseburger is just a cheeseburger but there's is the best we've ever eaten. Thank you again for being the bright spot of our hotel stay. read more

Very Disappointing, Our kids gave us a $100 gift certificate. Dinner menu had few choices and was very expensive, so we opted for happy hour. For Key West, selection was very limited, couldn't even get a glass of chardonnay, portions were small and nothing special. Then we were told had to spend all $100 at one time only, so our $53. bill cost us a $100. Far too many good restaurants in KW to ever consider returning. read more

Visiting Key West for a double 40th birthday trip, we reserved a large evening sunset dinner. Josh worked with us on the menu, set up and it ended up being amazing! The modern nautical theme, location, view... just beautiful. Food was delicious, service was excellent and the restaurant/bar looked like it was newly renovated. If you are looking for a small intimate dinner-or booking a large group dinner- I highly suggest Four Marlins. Josh knocked it out of the park... customized printed menus, adjusting the seating from 16 to 22 person--he went above and beyond to make the birthday dinner truly special! read more

Feel like I got scammed!! Waiter didn't mention 18% gratuity is included on the receipt. Below signature line on receipt it even has the suggested tip amount- 18%, 20%,etc. We ended up leaving an additional $80 in cash on top of the $57 already included. Food was typical of most Key West restaurants-average and over priced. read more

Horrible service and food. Would not recommend to an enemy. Took over 30 minutes to get our drinks. Took almost 2 hours to get our food. Then, 3 of our guests refused their food as it looked something from a fast food place. Spoke to a manager who was rude as well. Sent an email to restaurant, it's been over a week with no response. Therefor I decided to come here to post. Stay away! read more
