Non English speaker who forgot a simple request for mayo so we could try to choke down our chicken sandwich. Food was uniquely terrible. Chicken sandwich was small for $21 and I swear it was frozen and microwaved prior to bringing out to the table. It was so dry and obviously over microwaved, but we did not say anything we just asked for mayo to try to chock it down, but the mayo never came. This is an overpriced venue that cannot even get bar food right. For the price, food quality, lackluster service, too loud music, and obstructed view, do yourself a favor and go to the Tiki Bar at the Galleon for picture perfect sunsets, followed by dinner on the marina. Spent over 2 weeks here this time and have each June for the past 20. Last year I met my Son and Daughter in law there for drinks but did not eat. Tonight is our last night here and I wanted to do something different with my girlfriend. Should have taken my own advice and stayed at the Galleon. I am in food service so tipped for food I could not each but as a KW regular I will vote with my feet and not return . Below is the sunset view from the Galleon.

The Tequila Old Fashioned was very good, smoky with the round, big cube. For starters, we tried the Seared Catch triple-tail small plate which was excellent and the Vegetable Risotto salad, which was hearty, yet light.

But once we stepped inside, we were pleasantly surprised! We loved the eclectic decor, dim lighting, and laid-back atmosphere.

The spinach salad was a nice contrast of "greens" to have as an appetizer. For mains, the Key Lime Pasta with (I think) local spiny lobster was great and the Filet Co. Chili Cheese Coney with small beef dogs on a little buns was also good. For dessert, we enjoyed the hot banana honey. The bistro is decorated with Star Wars paraphernalia on the shelves over the bar and you have to check out the bathroom, which was pretty awesome with Star Wars scene complete with flashing lights. The atmosphere is dimly lit and kinda cool and a bit like a speak easy. I'd give The Flaming Buoy a very strong 4 and highly recommend it as one of the Key's coolest better food oriented restaurants.

In order to get to Latitudes, you must make a ferry reservation time which is the time for the boat to take you to the island. You can book this on the website. You must place a $50 per person reservation fee to do so, so make sure you are early or it will cost you. Anyway, the ride was fun and many photo opportunities on the way to the island as well as on the island. The restaurant is in a beautiful setting overlooking the gorgeous ocean view. If the weather is nice, request outdoor seating on your reservation notes. Also indicate the occasion you are celebrating if it applies. As for our edibles, everything was so delicious, fresh and carefully sourced. We started out with the AHI TUNA TARTARE- which had two crispy and thin plantain chips, avocado, capers, mango, pomegranate seeds, cured egg yolk, sweet chili vinaigrette. Our next course was the MAINE LOBSTER BISQUE- sweet sherry, lobster chunks, crostini, micro herbs, and paprika oil. It had such a rich lobster flavor with many Maine Lobster Chunks. To keep with a seafood theme, our third course was the PAN-ROASTED MUSSELS- spanish chorizo, sweet onions, blistered tomatoes, sherry, chili flakes, evoo. Delicious tomatoes to accompany the mussels and all went well with the Crostini's. For our main course, we had the MAINE LOBSTER COBB- mesclun greens, haricots verts, candied nueske's bacon, heirloom tomato, kalamata olives, roasted corn, cucumber, chopped eggs, mango-mint yogurt dressing, and a large amount of a Maine Lobster Salad. To finalize the memorable lunch, we chose the ESPRESSO CHEESECAKE- caramel sauce, chocolate tuile, which we thought would be a complimentary dessert to celebrate our 40Th Anniversary, but the only thing complimentary was the chocolate piece that said, "Happy Anniversary ". Whether you are celebrating a special occasion or not, I recommend visiting Latitudes at Sunset Key in Key West Florida.

First off, I am not someone who writes reviews ... good or bad - it's just never been my thing. For some reason after my experience on February 17th at this establishment I felt compelled to write this review (I am especially glad I decided to yelp about it due to the false review below) as I know every has there own experience I will speak on my own. La Te Da was recommended to us by friends that had been coming to key west for years. We had never been before so we decided to have dinner and go see Randy Roberts show. We are bar people so we snagged a seat once something became available. Greeting us with a bright smile and warm welcome. We immediately fell in love with James and his fellow bartender Tracy. What a team ! It was a show all in itself watching them work together behind the bar. Food and drinks 10/10 my fiancé is so picky - off to a great start. We got our seats at the show and unfortunately were next to a group of 8 women who seemed to forget there was other people around them. Despite their obnoxiousness we decided we weren't going to let this ruin our night it had been great thus far. Let me tell you the show - WOW!!! Straight out of a broadway show ...super impressed by the pure talent of Randy Roberts and getting to jam out to some classics. After the show we decided to go back to the outside bar, we had just ordered our drinks right as the 8 intoxicated women came from the dining room down the stairs screaming PAPPIIII PAPPIIII PAPPIII !!! over and over to a man sitting at the complete other end of the bar on duval street. (You would've thought they owned the bar) Mind you this is an upscale restaurant - people are in the middle of having dinner in the dining room and full ish bar. (We were surprised no manager had asked them to quiet down at this point) the yelling at each other goes on for quite sometime even though they were standing right next to each other. Very inconsiderate to say the least, you could tell the people at the bar were starting to get turned off. We were chatting with another couple that was sitting next to us that got annoyed by the loud group and decided to close out and leave. At this point James gently & politely asked the ladies if they could "slightly tone it down while he wants everyone to be able to enjoy themselves" he was met with attitude by a couple of the ladies. This one girl said to the bartender. "I can be such a bitch right now" ... me and my fiancé now quiet were front row wondering how this was going to play out. James - calm, cool, and collected said responded "there is no reason for that and that there is no reason to leave the establishment everyone is here to have a good time" again met by resistance by several ladies in the group. Ironically the family member of the local older lady was sitting next to us apologizing to us for the loud group even before James had spoke to them with her stating that they are excited that they haven't seen each other in a long time. James did not use any profanity and was much kinder than I would have handled the situation with multiple people being straight up rude! I have been in the restaurant business for years being my family own several restaurants in Miami and New Orleans so this is nothing new for us people feeling that when they spend money at your establishment that grants them the right to act however they want unfortunately it doesn't work like that. The situation was handled professionally and saying anything else would be a false narrative. We will be back next year and we will bring more friends and family next time ... possibly staying at la te da such a beautiful venue, awesome band downstairs too! Till next time ... read more

Sorry boys, It must have been chefs night off. We were there for our 39 Th. Anniversary to have a relaxing meal. We ordered the clams casino to split as an appetizer. The clams came out as steamed clams with chorizo with an overly seasoned broth. When I asked about the presentation, I was told that this was Christopher's version of casino . Steamed clams yes, not casino. All clams were not open. Next we had salad. The wedge was lacking in Stilton and tasted mostly like mayonnaise. The Island salad lacked any goat cheese, but was rife with unripe mango. For my entrée I ordered Shrimp Scampi over rice. The scampi sauce tasted the same as the clams casino. My partner had the crab cakes. They were accommodating enough to substitute orzo for basmati rice. The crab cakes were not worth the price. Using special instead of lump makes all the difference. We love La de da , We are local, however we will only return for brunch. Wait staff were very pleasant. read more

If I could leave less than one star I would. First of all, the waiter was excellent. The food however was completely underwhelming. When flagging down the manager to let him know that a crab shell was found in our cream of crab soup, there was no other way to describe him than as unprofessional, pretentious, and honestly an asshole. He told me that cream of crab always has shells in it, and then loudly checked with the customer next to me whether or not she had crab shells in her food. He then cursed at me, and clarified that he is not the manager, but the OWNER. As if I didn't need another reason to dislike the establishment. Owners such as that do not deserve any business from paying customers, especially with their overpriced and underwhelming food selection. read more

Great food and drinks and always a fabulous time! Best Bloody Mary's on the island. Try the Eggs LaTeDa for breakfast or the sliders for lunch. Dinner always has something new and tasty waiting to be enjoyed. Prices are reasonable and the staff is attentive. It is an "island time" kind of atmosphere, but then where are people rushing to anyway? Hang out at the bar. The people to your left can make you smile if the people to your right bore you. The locals add color and fun all day. Don't miss Tea Dance on Sunday! Another chance to mix it up with locals and visitors alike. LaTeDa is Key West at its most relaxed. read more

We booked a sunset dinner for our 6th wedding anniversary on the patio which was also the final night of our key west trip. We did let them know when we called to ale the reservation so they were aware it was a special evening for us (you can't make reservations online-you do have to call) so we were hoping we would get a good table with a view of the water and sunset. Unfortunately that was not the case. That's fine. You can't always accommodate that and we understand. We said nothing. We were placed at a very intimate table sort of in a corner by a wall. There was another table, of a very similar set up in the adjoining corner. The set up wasn't great as our chairs were close enough to touch if both pulled out at the same time. But we didn't say anything and just accepted it as it was the off season and it was possible no one would be seated there. Our server could not have been friendlier, more kind or knowledgeable about the menus and specials. I have a stomach condition so dining out is not without it potential headaches so for me that was really special. She warned me off of my initial choice after hearing my special needs and suggested something that Snead similar but maybe more appropriate for my needs without making me feel uncomfortable. Truly well handled. Our food was good. The key like pie was good. We like it very cold and very limy so not our favorite but no where near the worst we had. They left off an iffy sauce for me and my husband who had a fish dish raved about his. There was nothing showy about the congratulation dessert just very dignified. Unfortunately about half way through the evening another couple was seated at that adjoining corner table. They had clearly been drinking before being seated as they were loud from the get go and one walked in with a drinks in hand. They continued to be loud all evening. They were a bit belligerent. They were clearly not having a good time as they were bickering (not in a cute way playful way-in a way that made us feel like they should be having this conversation in a private setting) quite a bit of profanity. They clearly were listing to our table because as we stood to leave they congratulated us and said "happy anniversary" which was sweet but also...you still behaved that way while know this? Come on. It just marred the evening. However, I am fully aware that this is a very specific experience that likely would not happen to anyone else and is in no way the restaurants fault.

The servers were plentiful and our server checked on us multiple times. However, many people received their food before us although they came in after us.
