Expresso martini
Jennifer B.

This place inside The Saint Hotel is unbelievable. The decor is warm red lighting with funky classy chandeliers and furniture. We sat at the bar and Marcela was our bartender for the evening. I went to a few cocktail bars on the island but this one exceeded my expectations! Marcela knows her drinks and not only were the drinks on point but her service was impeccable including menu suggests for food that did not disappoint. The food here is not to be missed. Nice size portions presented mindfully. We ordered two small plates the fried green tomatoes(best I've ever had) and tuna poke, and we split the scallop and shrimp mushroom risotto! It was exceptional not too rich or over salted, just perfect! Ended the evening with a manhattan and a perfect expresso martini.

While staying at The Saint Hotel we dined here and stopped in for cocktails several times... each visit was great! They also do an excellent job keeping up with patrons at the pool out back. They have a large menu loaded with excellent and appealing breakfast, lunch, dinner and small plates. Their cocktail list is also fun, as they have a couple lists that are fulltime and one seasonal list. Inside is cozy, with a naughty appeal to it. The lighting is dim and the seating is comfy. We tried several different food items during our stay, the fish tacos were great, so were the mini burgers and the lollipop chicken were amazing!! Definitely suggest stopping in!

Tuna Poke - awesome flavor and great presentation! Great bartenders at night and phenomenal cocktails!

Greed (jalapeños and mango)

I love everything about The Saint Hotel which includes this restaurant Tempt. Tempt is the kind of place that makes you feel a little sexier when you walk in the door. With their dark colors and music, it is a cool place to hang out and enjoy cocktails/and or small plates. I love their drink menu which continues the theme of the hotel on Saints and Sinners (isn't it fun to be both?). My two favorite drinks were Greed and Pride and while it is hard to pick the winner of the two.....I will go with Greed. Vodka, Mango Puree and Fresh Mulled Jalapeños combine to make you greedy for more (see what i did there). There is a very small outside seating area which overlooks the hotel pool if eating outside is your thing. We had several meals (and drinks) while staying at the hotel. I am not usually a fan of hotel restaurant/bars because I do not usually give you the city's true flavor but Tempt is the exception to the rule.....it is true to the Key West vibe.

Awesome spot ! Breakfast was awesome! Lunch, well small plates awesome! Bartenders are very helpful! Bring drinks and food out to tables by the pool! So cool ambiance! Red lights everywhere!

Really just great all around. Happy hour drinks all grand, as were the appetizers. Dinner Al Fresco with that lovely pool from the Saint Hotel in the background. Wow For dinner I had the seafood pasta. The wine sauce was Devine. The crab cake app fresh and light. The lollipop chicken also great. I might not dine anywhere else

This restaurant is part of the Saint Hotel. We ate here every morning for breakfast as it was part of our room rate. Food and coffee was good. No complaints!

My friends really love this place. I wanted to like it too, but it was disappointing. My experience was closer to a 2 Star, but give my friends vouch for a normally good experience, I will give them some leeway. The interior is swanky, which does make for a cool dining experience. The music is a bit loud - don't plan on being able to have good conversation. I ordered the Kimchi burger. It had nice spicy flavor but it was over cooked and on the small size for the price. The salad that accompanied it bland (basically just spinach). The burrata mozzarella salad was quite nice. Much more flavor than what came with he burger. Lastly, the service was just poor. My water glass was empty most of the dinner.

It's a dive bar through and through but I happen to be a big fan of dive bars! However, this one fell flat on it's face with the service. I wouldn't say the place was packed but there were not any open seats at the bar. I posted up the best I could but for the better part of 15 minutes both bartenders didn't even come to my side of the bar. I then moved to the other side and waited another 10 minutes to be served (at which point the bartender said "Didn't I just serve you?" Um, no, you most definitely did not. This place has two saving graces: 1) A water jug full of cold water for the taking, off in the corner. Love that. 2) A popcorn machine that had DELICIOUS popcorn! YES. If you can manage to get a beverage then I think you won't mind Green Parrot's (very) relaxed atmosphere and delightful little perks. My takeaway is for the staff to mix in some work to go along with their chatting with the regulars...

This is a true dive bar in the best sense--dark, loud, unapologetically weird, and absolutely unforgettable. The drinks flow, the stories blur, and at some point you realize you're no longer entirely sure how you ended up where you are... but you're fine with it. Now. The ladies' room. If you know, you know. Let's just say there was a handsome fellow, a conch shell, and an air of mystery that felt very on-brand for Key West. Details are intentionally vague--some things are better left unexplained--but whatever was happening worked. Worked very well. My nieces? They fell for it hook, line, and sinker. Completely enchanted. Equal parts confused and delighted. A core memory was made, whether they asked for it or not. Shirt Club is the kind of place where stories are born, logic is optional, and you leave with inside jokes you can't fully explain to anyone who wasn't there. It's chaotic, hilarious, and 100% Key West. Would we go back? Absolutely. Would we ever expect to understand everything that happens there? Not a chance -- and that's exactly the point.

The Dive Bar Shirt Club has the kind of laid-back, no-frills vibe that feels like hanging out in your best friend's backyard--the one who somehow has all the toys, great music, and everyone ends up there without planning it. The ambience is pure Florida Keys: relaxed, fun, and welcoming, like you're part of the crew the second you walk in. Then there are the tacos... easily some of the best tacos in the Keys. Fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want with a cold drink in hand. On top of that, the prices are more than fair, and the selection--drinks, merch, food, all of it--is absolutely top tier. It's the kind of place that makes you understand why people never leave the Keys... and why visitors like me keep coming back.

First off, nothing says tropics like Rum! The name is all that needs to be said. Nothing more... nothing less. It's a small and it was packed.

I stopped by Captain Tony's Saloon and it was such a fun, classic Key West experience…read more The vibe is exactly what you'd want, laid-back, a little quirky, and full of character. There was live music playing, pool tables, and even some video games, so there's plenty to keep you and the family entertained while you hang out. Kids are allowed in, but they aren't allowed to sit at the bar. It definitely feels like one of those places where you can lose track of time in the best way. They also have a merch area with hoodies, stickers, and other souvenirs if you want to take a little piece of the experience home. And knowing it's one of the oldest bars in the Keys just adds to the charm and history of the place. The service was quick, you walk up to the bar and order then find a place to sit. Super chill and laid back. One fun thing you have to try is tossing a quarter into the fish's mouth outside... test your luck and see if you can land it! Can't forget the drinks! The rum punch is to die for... super refreshing and perfect for the Key West heat. Overall, such a fun stop if you're in town. Definitely worth checking out! Fun fact: - it used to be a morgue and ice house back in the day. it also used to be the original home of Sloppy Joes, before they moved to Duvall St.

Of course it is an attraction because it is supposedly the original Sloppy Joes where Ernest Hemingway hung out. It is dark inside with low ceilings. People have hung paper currency all over and you will also see lots of bras hanging from the ceiling. There is live music and lots of people watching. We enjoyed our drinks and the fun atmosphere.

The decor is seductive in such a tasteful and classy way, everything is so romantic. It's beautiful. Cozy, intimate booths. Sparkling chandeliers flickering in candlelight. Ambient lighting. It is a perfect place to end your evening with your partner. We made reservations the morning of, on a Wednesday evening for our anniversary, and were seated promptly. Service was incredible from start to finish. I appreciate their ipad menus with questions to ask your partner, peruse the menu, and read about the origins. There are plenty of drinks and deserts with double entendre names, they're so fun. Huge positive that they have virgin drinks, and several to choose from. Both deserts we tried were out of the world delicious. The missionary crisp ice cream and flavor was 10/10, no notes to improve. Key lime from behind was the best key lime I've had in my life and quickly became the best we have tried on Key West. Incredible and what a lovely place!!

Romantic lighting and private booths made for some good ambiance. The iPad menus were great and very useful in selecting desserts and drinks. Everything on order is accompanied by a double entendre title, which makes it fun to pick. Candy rimmed beer was good; and the berry crisp and ice cream offerings were tasty. Honestly too big, even for two. But they were trying to do something different. To know: they do not have a license for hard liquor. A fun spot to have a sweet treat. Maybe don't bring the kids.
