That extra attention made the evening feel special. Great food, an awesome hook-and-cook experience, and exceptional service from William. We would absolutely recommend Kaya!

There was nothing wrong with the breakfast or service. It just tasted...average, and low quantity. The impression I get, and I may be wrong, is that Hot Tin Roof breakfasts are for those customers staying at Ocean Key, and most likely are comped or the breakfast is part of the package. I have no clue about lunch or dinners at Hot Tin Roof. I had bacon, eggs, and chopped up potatoes. The bacon and eggs were just fine, I mean how do you screw that up? The potatoes were plain and not very much. Noting the breakfasts of the wife and kid, I felt the same....average at best. It left me for looking for an early lunch on Duval street. I believe they add an 18% "service charge" on the check regardless of size of party.

From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere and customer service were superb. The restaurant is quaint and welcoming. Our server, David, was absolutely fantastic! He was kind, patient, attentive, and incredibly efficient. His warmth and fun personality made our dining experience memorable. It was truly a joy! And, of course, the food was excellent! My bestie and I enjoyed the calamari, Basin Broiled Oysters, Key Lime pie, Bloody Marys, and Mimosas. Both dishes were delicious and beautifully prepared. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend this delightful restaurant to anyone visiting Key West. Great food, comfortable atmosphere, excellent service, and a server like David who made our birthday celebration even more special. We left happy, full, and grateful we found this little gem!

My husband got the shellfish combo. They said the lobster was perfectly cooked, and he is currently inhaling the snow crab. Legs, and I can't even see the shrimp on the plate anymore. LOL so apparently he must have liked that... We set on the inside bar where the AC was. There was 3 bartenders for the tiny little bar, not much interaction from any of them.

We visited key west spring the off season so many restaurants were admittedly not as busy as they would be siding the high traffic times. We were there for an anniversary trip that was booked very last minute. We also booked earlier in the evening which I'm sure had a hand in our experience as well. The space is lovely. Classic and old school while not being dated. Not trendy or flashy. We walked in and were seated immediately. There was another couple in the dining room. They went out of their way to seat us in a completely different area than that couple (this should be common sense but that not been our experience lately) so if very much felt as though we had a private dining experience. We were seated in a window overlooking the marina. We lucked into a gorgeous sunset which only made the even better. Our server could not have been nicer or more knowable hit wasn't overly friendly which tells us they either choose or train their staff well. We didn't want fish as we had been in the island for a few days and needed a change of pallet. She made excellent recommendations and we both genially loved our meals. My husband ordered the daily special which was a steak asparagus and mashed potatoes-and I had rare order envy. It was a very large portion as well. I had the seasonal squash ravioli it was delicious, I just wished the portion was a bit larger on mine. We each had a pre dinner cocktail and a glass of wine. My husband initially made a wine selection and our server made a different suggestion based on his order and he went with that and it was a fantastic pairing. Very well done on her part. The key lime pie was also our favorite of the trip-we like it cold, custardy and very limy and this was exactly that. We were woefully disappointed in most of the others we tried. This was delicious though. If we were to return to key west we will absolutely be stopping here.

Came over to Caroline's because it was one of the less crowded spots but still located right there amidst the action.

We were able to get seated right away, however the service was a bit slow and we noticed people around us who were seated after us getting their food well before us. It finally did come and it was solid. Nothing to write home about but a solid option on the strip for some food and drinks. Wouldn't say I'd go seek it out, but if you're looking around and need decent prices and food and can't decide or everywhere is packed, you'll be safe with it.

We were a party of 15, all seated and ready to order our meal. Drinks were already ordered. Not delivered. One of the young girls (three years old) was having a moment and crying. Her Dad tried to calm her down. Took her away from the table. The owner or manager, an angry man with horrible people skills, actually threw us out and insisted we leave. We are a respectable family and have NEVER been asked to leave any establishment. A complete disgrace. His concern was that the Dad of the little was rude to his staff. When the Dad asked how so, this angry man would not answer. Maybe it's time for him to retire??? Terrible situation. We will never, ever be back. Very sad.
