Been here twice now. I don't usually think to go to hotels for a good meal. The happy hour here from 5-7 is pretty good. Drinks are buy one, get one free. And the happy hour appetizers are tasty. I've been here for dinner as well, though I'd highly recommend just sitting at the bar, having a couple of drinks and listening to their live entertainment. The bartenders are also pretty great!
We were staying in a hotel directly across the street so we came in for cocktail hour before dinner. Based on the reviews, I was expecting it to be fantastic. It ended up being just ok for us. The hostess told us there were no seats, but I saw a small table for two by the bar and she said oh right, you can sit there. Took forever for a server to come to our table. We ordered the filthy dirty martini and an espresso martini. My martini was average, wasn't extra dirty as advertised, and my son said his espresso martini tasted like pure alcohol. We ordered two appetizers, the naked wings, and the pork belly. The wings were ok but dry. The pork belly was very good. Based on the drinks and the appetizers, we left and went elsewhere for dinner. Not sure if I would visit again when I'm in town.
We were visiting Key West for a conference. We had a party of 8. Great service very knowledgeable on the menu. Our waiter had good recommendations. The food was amazing large portions, they were kind and split my salad for my husband & I. Cocktails - were cocktailing :)
Stayed at the hotel across the street so easy walk to this restaurant, I wasn't prepared for how nice or expensive it was but I'm glad because I enjoyed the experience a lot. I ended up getting a 40 dollar burger! Crazy right but I'll be honest it was really good. Service was amazing helped us get everything we needed. The lighting is nice, it was a very pleasant date.
Had dinner on Mother's Day. Hubby had a smoked old fashioned and I had red wine. We ordered appetizers; naked chicken wings and blistered shishito peppers. Both were very tasty. We originally were going to just do tappas but they were not serving those that evening so hubby had the tavern burger and I had the margarita pizza. We enjoyed both entrees. With that being said this was a very expensive meal for what we had. I wish we had gone on a night they were serving the happy hour tappas with drinks and probably would have been happier. The food was good and we recommend.
Came here for happy hour with my boyfriend which is something they're notorious for! We ordered the oyster Rockefeller, the Asian sticky ribs and the spicy salmon bites. We sat at the bar and had great service. The drinks were good and the spicy salmon bites were probably my favorite. Next would be the Asian sticky ribs. The oyster Rockefeller was my least favorite. Overall not a bad happy hour, I would come back!
Beautiful restaurant. I showed up earlier than my reservation and sat at the bar and listened to the live music before I was seated. I loved the live music. The naked chicken wings were perfection. I had the scallops and my partner had the Wagyu filet mignon with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes. The creamed spinach was perfection. The only aspect I did not like were the desserts. I had the hazelnut panna cotta and the chocolate cake and both were were bitter and off tasting. I wish there was like a nice chocolate chip cookie or milk chocolate dessert. 5 stars though. Also, our waiter Ben was fantastic. And so was the tall, young runner. He helped take pictures of our party with a smile. Everyone was so attentive. I loved the open kitchen concept. One of the best eats I've had in key west so far. Thank you!
We recently stayed at the Beachside Resort, and Tavern N Town was one of the limited options in the area. While the restaurant is on the pricier side, it does offer a unique vibe--very dark and noticeably cold indoors, which some guests might really enjoy, though it wasn't quite our style. I do wish there were more breakfast choices and more budget-friendly options overall. That said, the service was friendly, and we enjoyed the soup and wine.
Our first time eating here and that was because it was close to our hotel. The food and the ice cream was really good, but a bit pricey. We'll have come back at happy hour next time. The service was fast and friendly, but it was a bit noisy in there. They have an extensive wine list and an adequate selection of local beers. I'm sure we'll be back, to try other items on the menu, but probably at happy hour.
came in on my birthday 3/5/25 i had a res for party of 3 at 7:30pm it wasn't busy at all food was really good! server forgot one of my sides but it was fine bc we ended up being really full at the end. MUST TRY! we'll be back (:
Food was excellent! Service was superb! Our attendant was the kindest most attentive person. He made the experience so much better!
Everything about this place was excellent! We went on Christmas Eve...busy but handled very well by all. The hostesses were very sweet and accommodating with our toddler as we waited for our son to arrive separately. In the meantime, the bartender suggested and made some custom drinks for our party that were delicious. Our dinner and server was outstanding for our party of 6. Our server was super helpful in recommendations for our non-seafood eaters and carefully accommodated a shellfish allergy. I ordered the 1/2# lobster tail with mushroom risotto to share with my hubs and it was fabulous...like Hell's Kitchen fabulous. All was spot on. Don't forget the dessert, very well presented and super tasty...yes, at "that" level again! Must not skip this place! read more
- Had dinner here without a reservation and was able to get seated - They have a ton of seating available; booths, high tops, regular tables - I really enjoyed the tavern salad, which is a great size for the table, and the pork belly - Service was great read more

Extremely busy on Christmas Eve but the staff did their best to provide good service. We walked in without reservations and managed to grab a seat by the bar. We came in just to grab dessert, and the key lime bar was a solid choice. It wasn't overly sweet or heavy and I liked that they paired it with ice cream to balance with the pie. Great work on the dessert so I could see myself going back if I'm ever in Key West again to try other things. read more

Stopped into Tavern n Town for Happy Hour while in Key West. It is attached to the Beachfront Residences hotel but open the public. Note for patrons: happy hour food is only good in the bar, so do not let them seat you! Bar area is a bar feel. Restaurant dining is upscale casual with white linen. Happy Hour menu contains a list of $7 items. George was our bartender and he was legit - guy had major talent working the bar considering the size of the crowd the entire night we were there. We opted for the bang bang shrimp, asian sticky ribs, and salmon bites. Pictures included for the review - perspective is tough. Note for the pics that the serving dishes are very small - think of a roll plate. So, your $7 portion is essentially a few bites. That being said, everything we had was good. Props to the Asian sticky ribs - meat was falling off the toothpick and the sauce was very good. Salmon bites were good. Bang Bang shrimp was mildly disappointing, lacking the usual "kick" of a bang bang dish. Cocktails were good with generous pours. Special props to the southern chocolate cake, ordered by suggestion of George. Now that was a legit delicious dessert, served with bourbon ice cream. Overall, we had a pleasant visit in the bar for happy hour. Slightly disappointed in the tiny portions, but food was good enough. George was great. I'd say worth a happy hour stop! Regular menu prices are definitely an accurate $$$ as noted in Yelp. read more

Had a wonderful birthday celebration thanks to Jason. He handled our rowdy crowd with grace and professionalism. Food was top notch, all 8 of us ordered something different and everyone was pleased with their meal. I had one of the best espresso martinis here that I've had in a while. Special shout out to Daniel the food runner. he was a great asset to our wonderful evening. We will be back! read more
My second morning eating breakfast here. The breakfast buffet was excellent, and they had three chefs, preparing eggs and omelettes to order. A great selection of everything. Good coffee, great service. A little on the expensive side but that is to be expected. read more

The service was incredible we had plenty of appetizers and they all came within time and the unlimited bread was a no brainer not to mention they didn't refill my water to much but they did it enough times I stayed hydrated and not to mention the food is INCREDIBLE!!! Best burger I have ever had and the scallopes were delightfully delicious, not to mention the fries were killer, and last but not least the bar area was a little loud but we were lucky seated in the back and it was calm and the voices and plates clinging were comforting, great ambiance. All around great dinner spot!!! read more
Just wow. The interior of Tavern N Town is unlike anywhere else we went in the keys. It's sophisticated but not pretentious. A sleek bar greets you on the way in and further down it's fun to watch the open kitchen. We were only there to got their key lime pie to go, but I wish I had been hungrier because everything looked amazing. The key lime pie was absolutely incredible. It had dollops of toasted marshmallow-y meringue. I'm assuming it was an Italian meringue, since it was shiny. The filling was creamy and tart. Just exquisite. And the graham cracker crust had a nice honey flavor. We tried a bunch of key lime pie on our vacation in the keys, and this one was my favorite. Unfortunately my vacation is over, but I hope to come back here soon! read more

We dined at Tavern N Town during our stay at the hotel property that it's located it. It appears to be a very upscale establishment based on the decor and the ambiance when you first enter. However if you're a diner link myself then the food and drink selection is what actually counts the most during dinner. I ordered the wings as an appetizer which were delicious. I also ordered the coco-Jitt which is rendition of a coco nut mojito. It was good. I took a chance on the shrimp cocktail and lobster ceviche which was light and refreshing but good. We ended up only ordering 2 drinks and 2 appetizers because unfortunately the menu was extremely limited almost like one of those 1 page preselected menus that you get when you go to a dining establishment for a private event or party which was my only con. They definitely need way more menu options. Overall our experience was good. We ended up spending about $105.00 for two drink and two appetizers though so they're a bit on the pricey side for what you actually get! read more

It's a very good place, the food is delicious and look really nice. The service is good. The prices are ok, not low but totally worth it. Live music, good atmosphere. You need some reservations if you wanna seat at the table, cause it's usually packed. read more

The BEST prime rib in town! The portion was so generouse we were eating from it for days! Had my 50th birthday dinner there and it was amazing. He has eaten there many times before and suggested it for my birthday because it was special. Everything was amazing. The ambiance was wonderful - seemed formal but was not. The service is just ok - our server seemed to forget about us and he was getting frustrated because our server seemed to visit a table a lot (maybe friends of his) and we seemed to wait to ask for more drinks and dessert. Overall the food was excellent. Also, we had breakfast there the next morning and it also was fantastic. We had friends join us and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. read more

Food was great and I was honestly surprised didn't really expect liking the food as much as I did. My bf got the catch of the day which was red snapper in a bed of linguini. I got the seared chicken breast which came with a pumpkin puree. Potatoes, olives and some additional veggies it was absolutely delicious. As an app we got the meat and cheese board which was fairly small but still good. We had a wine that I truly enjoyed it was called pizella. Would definitely come here again read more
The food was amazing the steak was incredible. The wine was delicious. The lighting was a bit dark. Wasn't that impressed with the tvs on the walls in such a nice restaurant but to each his own. The server was kind and efficient. Great table service . Will be back next time I'm in key west for our anniversary. read more
When approaching the restaurant I almost thought they'd turn us away because of how fancy the restaurant seemed but all of the patrons were dressed Key west casual so I fit right in. The food, service and ambiance does warrant an attire that goes in more in line with it but I'm glad I was able to venture from my room in flip flops to have some of the best food I've had in a long time! Every item was perfectly balanced and cooked. Not pictured was our entree that was a 10oz Wagyu steak with mashed potatoes. We also had the Tavern Salad which was delicious, the flavors really complemented each other. I'm hoping I make my way back here while im visiting Key West. read more
Stellar experience! It was hubby's birthday!!! We were treated to a wonderful menu and after a long time trying to select from the menu, selected shrimp and lobster ceviche, prime rib and linguine. The serving portions were large. So tasty ! The prime rib was tender, ceviche, wonderful, linguine, had great depth. Our wait staff Karoly was the BEST. read more
