OUR FAVORITE KEY WEST RESTAURANTS

FINE DINING
STEAK & SEAFOOD
Commodore's Restaurant
700 Front Street
Key West, Florida
Our #1 recommendation for your wedding dinner. A private room is available for groups.
|
COMMODORE RESTAURANT
Put aside all those qualms about eating red meat, close your eyes and take a big juicy bite. They also offer a great selection of local fish and seafood. On our last visit, I ordered Florida Lobster and Gary had steak (no, not the lean Filet but the monster Rib Eye!) and we shared. Located one flight up, overlooking the Historic Seaport with a private room for groups. If the weather is pleasant, they open the windows and let in the sea breeze.
SAMPLE MENU
GROUP MENUS
"...the Commodore was absolutely wonderful- from the staff, to the meal, the wine, the view- it was the perfect place to enjoy celebrating our marriage!! The evening belonged to us, and we were treated like that by everyone there! For sure, we will visit the Commodore when we come back."
"...The Commodore was exquisite! The food was incredible and the service was super."
"...Dinner at Commodore was absolutely delicious, and was the perfect way to cap a perfect wedding day!" |

HOT TIN ROOF FINE DINING RESTAURANT
An intimate fine dining restaurant located overlooking the Key West Harbor with incredible sunset views. You may choose to dine outdoors on the verandah or indoors in the "tropically elegant" dining room. Gary and I enjoyed the privacy of a cozy booth.

Romantic & Intimate
|
PISCES FINE DINING RESTAURANT
Very ROMANTIC and extra special service for our wedding couples. Fine dining restaurant located in the historic district. Pisces is a great choice for an intimate dining experience. Seating is available indoors or outside on the roofop (in my opinion, indoors is much nicer). They can also accommodate wedding groups.
SAMPLE MENU
"Dinner was unbelievable...they even took a photo of us to take home. Wonderful food. Great service. We really enjoyed the whole experience....Thank you for the recommendation. Lobster was yummy! The art was also a sight to see."

GREAT HAPPY HOUR
Conch Republic Seafood Company
631 Greene St
Key West, Florida
|
CONCH REPUBLIC SEAFOOD COMPANY
Located overlooking the historic seaport, this open air waterfront restaurant is the perfect place to enjoy Key West shrimp and a cold beer while listening to live music and watching the boats come and go. They have a 2 for 1 happy hour everyday but Friday is the day of choice for most locals. It's also a great spot for wedding receptions and rehearsal dinners. Off-site catering is also available.

Key West, Florida.
Perfect for groups.

CAMILLE'S RESTAURANT
This is where the locals go when they want good, fresh food with a gourmet flair. The menu is always changing with really great specials. I love the chicken salad! They have 3 separate rooms and are very accommodating to groups. Denise, the owner, really makes an extra effort to make your event special.

Pepe's Cafe
806 Caroline St
Key West, Florida
|
PEPE'S CAFE ON CAROLINE STREET
This is the oldest restaurant in Key West. Great breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you are looking for basic food with fresh ingredients this is the place. They also make awesome margaritas. No sour mix, eggs whites or other additives - just fresh squeezed limes, triple sec and the tequilla - of course!

CASUAL BISTRO
Seven Fish
632 Olivia St
Key West, Florida
|
SEVEN FISH RESTAURANT KEY WEST
A small restaurant with good food and service. The tables are close together, so I wouldn't put it in the "romantic" category. Their fish is fresh and simply prepared - grilled with yummy light sauces. I really love the mixed grill - chicken, fish and vegetables on a skewer.

CASUAL/FUNKY
Blue Heaven Restaurant
729 Thomas Street Key West, Florida
|
BLUE HEAVEN IN BAHAMA VILLAGE
Jimmy Buffett wrote a song about this place and, of course, the prices went up but it's still the funkiest place to eat in Key West. Be prepared to eat gourmet food outside with a dirt floor beneath your feet and roosters running (or sometimes flying!) by. Go for breakfast. If you're lucky, lobster benedict will be the on the menu.

SUPER CASUAL/FUNKY
B.O.'s Fishwagon
801 Caroline Street, Key West, Florida
|
B.O.'s FISHWAGON ON CAROLINE STREET
Okay, so this could be the 2nd funkiest place to eat in Key West. Basically, this is a cement slab with a make-shift tin roof. Great conch fritters, fish sandwiches and the BEST french fries (hand-made). Boog Powell once cooked me barbeque here! Go on Friday for happy hour. There is live music (usually New Orleans style jazz) and cold beer.
