Total Key West waterfront magic! We popped into Seaside Cafe just to grab a quick snack, but ended up sitting for a meal because the vibe was too good to leave. We scored a prime table right along the water and we ordered the Truffle Pizza--super crispy crust, savory, and packed with flavor. The staff was super friendly and gave us great recommendations. Top-tier island scenery, coastal vibes, and delicious food right by the ocean. Couldn't have asked for a better afternoon stop!

This was the second time we had the Lobster Bianca pizza and of course, it didn't disappoint! Our waitress (I think her name was Alexis) was super friendly and attentive! We also had the best view! Highly recommend!!

One of the best things about this place is the stunning ocean views. Such a beautiful spot to sit, relax, and enjoy a meal. We ordered two pizzas : one shrimp and one vegetarian. My friend really enjoyed the shrimp pizza and found it quite unique and flavorful. As a vegetarian, though, I found the veg pizza just okayish and not particularly memorable. That said, the views and overall vibe still make this place worth visiting if you want to enjoy food with a gorgeous seaside setting

Seaside Café is a cozy, casual spot with fresh, flavorful seafood and hearty brunch options. The staff are friendly, and the relaxed atmosphere makes it a perfect stop for a leisurely meal by the water. Ps the seagulls will try to steal your food haha

Drink menu & Key Lime Pie mocktail
Cara T.

We stopped at this iconic cafe next to the southernmost point. Great beachside location right on the iconic Duval Street and right near the historic Mansion By The Sea. Can only speak to having drinks here, taking in the view and relaxing a bit. Their cocktails were excellent. Had a mocktail frozen key lime pie and it was refreshing. This place is known for their lobster pizza which we would have loved to have had, but just wasn't ready for a meal. Wished we had walked back here and done so, as the place we ended up at was really disappointing. (see my reviews) Beautiful view, excellent service.

Conch Fritters
Brianna T.

Not bad! The lobster pizza was the best thing we had, but also enjoyed the coconut shrimp and conch fritters! Loved the key lime pie drink! And ofc such a pretty location.

Beach View

If you are in Key West and do not stop by Seaside Cafe at the Mansion, you are seriously missing out. The setting alone is worth the visit. It is a beautiful outdoor space right near the beach, with tables set up under umbrellas and a charming bar that makes the whole experience feel relaxed and coastal. Sitting outside with the ocean breeze and a drink in hand was pure perfection. From the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly warm and welcoming. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and you can tell they truly care about making your experience special. We tried both versions of the key lime pie and they were absolutely delicious, perfectly balanced, tart and sweet, with that creamy texture you hope for in a true Key West slice. The drinks were just as impressive especially for Happy Hour. The Key Lime Pie Martini is an absolute must. I am not exaggerating when I say it was one of the best dessert cocktails I have ever had. It tasted like a slice of pie in a glass, smooth, refreshing, and dangerously good. Beautiful outdoor setting, wonderful people, incredible desserts and cocktails. I highly recommend stopping here, especially for the Key Lime Pie Martini. You will thank me later. I will definitely be back for the Lobster pizza; unfortunately, we had other dinner arrangements so we missed getting to try it.

"The Seaside Café Signature" - Honey-Butter Lobster Biscuits
Martine K.

We were pleasantly surprised at how awesome this lunch was. A food truck, a nice bar, and great service. Everyone enjoyed their meals except for the chicken tenders which aren't pictured. They were a little overcooked and boring. But the rest of the food was amazing!! Lobster Pizza and the lobster on the honey biscuits are to die for. And for those alone I would return here. Coconut shrimp is cooked to perfection and the conch fritters were some of the best I have ever had. Drinks were good too. We highly recommend this place.

Spring Mix and Strawberry
Oliver L.

This place makes dreams come true combining my two favorite things lobster and pizza and nailing it. It truly deserves a medal. I could go on and on and on about how it's amazing but just do yourself a favor and go there and try it for yourself and you will thank me. The strawberry salad, and honey biscuit is a great pair with the pizza and very tasty. The seating is all outdoors on the water. They do close at 8 PM so make sure to get there at a decent time. The service was quick and efficient.

Strawberry Lemongrass Mojito
Terri D.

We stopped in here to get out of the rain and have a cocktail. I wish we hadn't already had a late breakfast because the pizzas looked so good. We sat at the bar and had a great time chatting with the bartender, enjoying the view of the ocean beyond the tables. He enjoyed his beer and I really loved the Strawberry Lemongrass Mojito! I highly recommend it!

Honey "The Seaside Café Signature" - Honey-Butter Lobster Biscuits with truffle fries
Katrina P.

The scenery is beautiful, you're sitting right on the water. The service is great, everyone is so pleasant and quick. The entire meal was spectacular! The watermelon margarita was handcrafted, none of those fake overly sweet mixers. The honey butter biscuits were as if a biscuit met a funnel cake, added lobster and turned it into a sandwich. The perfect mix of sweet and salty. The Lobster Bianca is a lobster pizza. They use fontina cheese which takes this pizza to another level. They do not skimp out on the lobster at all, there are chunks all over the pizza. I've been to key west many times and this meal tops any other place I've been to. Seaside Cafe is a must try!

We were enticed by the lobster pizza sign and decided to get a table for 4. The cafe had just opened and was getting busy thanks to the nearby Southernmost Point in US buoy tourist photo opp. I checked their Web site and found a code for 20% off food. Bingo! We enjoyed the lobster pizza, and we added extra lobster for $11 which turned out to be a good portion. Three of us had an adult bevvie- my $14 key lime pina colada was good, and the others liked their $9 key lime hard seltzer. The table and chairs are in the sand, which is such a fun experience! The cafe is literally steps from the ocean, and the view is amazing! Lots of birds were trying to join us for our meal, and employees walked around with spray bottles to ward them off which didn't work. When we got the check, I was pleased to see the 20% discount applied to the entire bill! This was a $14 savings which is no small potatoes. Thanks bundles Seaside Cafe!

Vegan pizza
Maria W.

The vegan pizza was good and tasty; they didn't have a lot of vegan options on the menu. I got the pizza because it was customizable, so I got it without cheese and meat. The pizza tasted primarily of tomato paste with veggies. I wish they had more options outside of a salad. The dining experience was disturbed by all the free roaming roosters and plague of seagulls scooping in for a bite to eat and walking on tables as I ate. It was nice seeing the waves come in.

Reviews are largely positive. Diners love the lobster pizza, enjoy the coconut shrimp, and highlight the waterfront views. Drinks are also noted for being creative.

If you just want plain pizza, you can also order that but, honestly, basic pizza is available anywhere. Come here and try something different. You won't regret it. The 12-inch was 6 slices and a perfect size for my husband. I could only polish off 4 slices of my pizza and salivated thinking about when I could eat the last two (lunch!). We do have one complaint. They were less than accommodating when my husband asked for plain bread. He doesn't like veggies and is allergic to cheese. It doesn't seem impossible to pop some dough in the oven. Evidently it was a huge ask. Honestly that waitress never even tried to give him what he wanted. Plain bread wasn't on the menu and that was that, discussion over. Disappointing. I wanted to knock off 1/2 a star for the lack of effort but the pizza was so good I kept it 5 stars (also Yelp needs to implement 1/2 stars!). Hopefully the White Street Pizza owner reads this and teaches the staff to think next time before just dismissing an easy ask. Either that or tell the customer why it can't be done.

We were looking for a funky vibe, but something a bit more low-key and off the beaten path. After browsing Yelp, we landed on Flaming Buoy! I'll admit, when we first pulled up, we were a little hesitant. The exterior wasn't particularly inviting, and we wondered if we'd made the right choice. But once we stepped inside, we were pleasantly surprised! We loved the eclectic decor, dim lighting, and laid-back atmosphere. The menu had so many unique options, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! Our waiter was also tending bar, but he didn't miss a beat. He was quick-witted, friendly, attentive, and clearly knew how to keep things moving. Food came out quickly, and the entire experience was just what we were hoping for. Such a fun little hidden gem and the perfect meal to wrap up a wonderful Key West vacation. So glad we gave it a chance!

We sat at the bar and started with the grilled marinated key west pink shrimp appetizer with a spicy lime chutney. The shrimp was cooked nice and plump and the chutney (served on the side in a little funky bowl) spread on top gave it a bit a of kick. 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. Good service even after it got busy.

The service was excellent, and I had one of the strongest cups of coffee I've ever tasted. I ordered the French toast, and it was absolutely amazing. They also had a very good-looking selection of desserts and pastries that all looked delicious. There's something wonderfully quirky about the place, almost as if some old Key West spirit tucked away a little French café and enchanted it with the aroma of coffee, butter, and sugar. I wouldn't be surprised if the pastries were baked under a full moon. I would definitely return to try some of the other food.
