    We happily got a small high top outside just before the sun was setting. What an amazing view to have at dinner. Went for an easy burger order. The food was great. The margaritas were perfect, not too sweet! Our server(s) were great. Zero complaints and will definitely be back on my next visit

    There are many less touristy places that have less expensive food and the same sunset. That said if you just want a key west experience then walking out onto this pier for sunset is a must! Food is good, drinks are good and views and service are great!

    The Sunset Pier is adjacent to Mallory Square. It is very casual. We were the first ones on the pier. The chairs were stools, which I find very uncomfortable, also the pier gets quite hot. There were a number of chairs with backs. Randi, our waitress, was great and didn't rush us while we decided on our drinks, and food. There was music as you got closer to Sunset. Try the Key Lime Pie. It is the official pie of Florida. We walked back to Mallory Square for the Sunset, but you can enjoy the Sunset right from the Sunset Pier, and enjoy the band.

    If you want to have a great time and watch the sun set on the west coast while in key west, this is your place to go!!! We sat out on the pier and you can see the beautiful gulf. The sunset here was gorgeous! The food was great, but I was so busy taking in the views that I forgot to snag pictures. They have draft beer, bottle and a full bar. Lots of local craft beers as well. They have a great stage for live music and room for a dance floor on the pier. Our server was so fun, even dancing with us. She also recommended several other good spots to check out while we were there. Definitely a must do when in Key West!

    Perfect place to enjoy a meal with a view in Key West. The atmosphere is laid-back with live music, colorful seating, and unbeatable sunset views right over the water. Food and drinks are good, with quick service but it's really the location that makes this spot special. Great place to just sit back, relax, and take in the island vibe.

    Nothing fancy, but as the name states, Sunset pier is the best place to watch the sunset. Arrives early, order some drinks and apps and stay for dinner with live music. Service is average, but the food was good. Ceviche, mahi mahi sandwich and tacos, tuna poke, were the stars of our experience second to the sunset of course

    Mexican Street Corn and Chicken Salad

    The employees were so nice! The mango smoothie was fun, and the mexican street corn and chicken salad was also

    Poke bowl

    We got the lobster roll and poke bowl and both were great! Ambiance was exactly what we were looking for with the live music, breeze, views and chill vibes. Also got a Bloody Maria that was pretty good too. French fries were a bit salty and lobster roll didn't have mayo which was different but delicious. Definitely recommend coming here and maybe even for the sunset too.

    Happened upon this because we heard the Key West Chick Fest was playing there. Was looking to watch the sunset in Mallory Square but recognized we were very close to SSP. Just had drinks so can't comment on the food, but the setting along the water, listening to music, and watching the sunset is awesome (and the drinks were good too).

    Food: 2.5 stars Service: 3 starts People Atmosphere: 2.5 Sunset Atmosphere: 10/5 Stars Go for the sunset, have a drink and perhaps munchies. Excellent place to watch the beautiful Key West Sunsets with a drink and munchies. We shared ceviche (which was good and fresh), grilled fish tacos (good), and something else that we do not remember. Nothing remarkable with a Glorious View of Sunsets

    Drinks. The drink on the left was the pina colada; the right, Paloma (not recommended)

    The Sunset Pier has a great location and we enjoyed sitting on the pier while a young woman sang and played guitar. She was really enjoyable. The view is the draw and didn't disappoint but we had less than a great experience. First and foremost, the service was very slow when ordering or getting the check but the food came out quickly by a different person. I ordered a Paloma and it was awful. I didn't complain but can say that I would not recommend this drink. It was sour. My husband's pina colada was excellent. I ordered a lobster roll (served with fries) and although it was not traditional, there was plenty of lobster and the bun was toasted. My husband's burger was very large and greasy. For dessert, the key lime pie was quite good. Finally, the bathrooms are located in the parking garage nearby and I had to ask for directions. The bathrooms were not clean and one of two toilets was not working.

    Ships going by the pier

    Very nice casual place to come and have some drinks or order food while watching the sunset! Does get crowded about 1 hour before the sunset so you might want to come a little bit before. Lots of ships and jet skis going by and a lot of seating.

    Did not come for sunset, but stopped by for lunch on a Saturday and had a great time. The male bartender was awesome, easy to chat with, and made delicious drinks. He constantly kept making sure we were taken care of even when they started getting busy. We tried some of the smaller plate options and they were a win all around. Pretzels and the shrimp tostada Obviously the view is beautiful and the colorful chairs and tables with the island music paints the perfect picture!

    A must visit in key west!…read more Reservations for outside I have heard sell out weeks in advance. We were able to get a reservation inside. I was a little bummed we didn't get to see the view, but the ambiance inside is lovely too. Their menus light up which was so helpful in a dark restaurant. Our server was super helpful and made some great recommendations. We tried a few different small plates to share and enjoyed a few cocktails. Absolutely love the desserts here. The bread pudding and key lime pie were to die for! Price wise this was a bit expensive but we paid comparable for less nice places in key west so I would say this is 100% worth a stop.

    This was our first time in Key West, and we made a reservation here to celebrate my wife's birthday…read morewith a group of six. It was a beautiful evening, and we were seated with a lovely view of the waterfront. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience, and we were happy we chose this restaurant. Food: I always enjoy when a restaurant offers a creative and inventive cocktail menu. I won't go into detail on each one, but they were all very good, especially the Spiced Old Fashioned. At our server's suggestion, we ordered a couple of plates of the Grilled Ciabatta Bread. The bread was nicely grilled, and the roasted garlic manchego butter made it especially delicious. I normally try not to fill up on bread, but this was absolutely worth it. We ordered an eclectic mix of small and large plates. Some of the standout dishes included the Lobster Mac and Cheese, Swordfish, and Crab Cake. The Brussels sprouts took top honors, perfectly roasted without being greasy, full of flavor, and complemented by a generous amount of bacon. The one disappointment was the Pork Shank Osso Buco. While it was tender, it was only warm and a bit underseasoned. It was good, but not great, especially for someone who enjoys pork shank dishes. We saved room for dessert, and they were all crowd pleasers. My personal favorite was the Cuban Bread Pudding. The Chocolate Pistachio Crème Brûlée was also unique and delicious. Service: We had reservations for 7:30 and were seated promptly. The hostess and our server did a great job of making us feel welcome. The entire two-hour meal was well paced, and we always felt attended to. I was especially impressed with the backlit menu portfolios. They made it easy to read in the evening without guests needing to use their phone flashlights, which was a thoughtful and effective use of technology. Since we were celebrating a birthday, they placed a sign on the table acknowledging the occasion, which was a nice touch. It would have been even better if one of the desserts had included a lit candle. Atmosphere: The setting is beautiful. We were seated in a smaller dining room with several other tables. When we first arrived, there was a larger, very boisterous group nearby, and it made it difficult to hear our server. Fortunately, they left about 30 minutes into our meal, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed and enjoyable. Our waterfront view added to the experience. This was a very special evening. It was also the most expensive meal we had in Key West, so it was reasonable to have high expectations. With a few improvements, it could have been a five-star experience. Definitely a place we would return to.

We had a reservation and were seated promptly at a table up front. Our server was over in flash and soon we were sharing the tuna watermelon ceviche, the lobster mac and cheese and the quesadilla. All were delicious! For our entrees, we had the chicken and waffles, scallops with more of that lobster mac and cheese (I said it was good!) the fresh catch of the day and a ceasar salad. The fresh catch came with an ear of corn that I made short work of! For dessert we devoured the banana bread french toast that was perfection!

We got a side of fries to share and they were very reminiscent of In and Out - a little styrofoamy in texture. The Lime Aioli for the fries was the star here. My son had the grilled cheese and caprese salad - he is a picky eater and devoured them both. I'd say all in all this is a great place!

From the moment we checked in for the boat transfer, the experience felt off. The staff lacked the warmth and hospitality you'd expect from a place of this caliber. That tone continued with the hostess, and things didn't improve once we were seated. As a party of two, we were given a table that felt more like an afterthought--disappointing, especially when the ambiance and setting are such a big part of why people come here. The food was good, but not particularly memorable this time around. What stood out more was the service--our server was inattentive, and overall the experience felt disconnected rather than relaxed and enjoyable. Latitudes is still undeniably a special place, and the setting alone is hard to beat. But when you're paying premium prices, you expect premium service--and this time, it just wasn't there.
