Loved this place! We love Italian food and were a bit skeptical going to one in a touristy place on a touristy street, but this one broke the mold. From their special infused olive oil on their wonderful bread, to the appetizers and main courses, they were all superb! We started with a meatball appetizer that were made from beef, pork and short ribs; they had a wonderful flavor and the marinara sauce was top notch. I had the bolognese sauce on homemade noodles and it was just lovely (p.s. ordered the half order and couldn't finish it). My hubby had the seafood pasta and couldn't start complimenting the flavors. Definitely stop here if you want a break from seafood and something completely different and wonderful (p.s.s. they do have seafood and hubby loved it there too)

Wonderful place to say the least. I was pleasantly surprised by both of my dishes. The ceviche was grouper which was probably the best I've ever eaten! Their supplier is a spearfisher that brings it in daily which is why it isn't on the menu otherwise! The octopus which was also fabulous was brought up a notch by the chickpea ragout. Do yourself a favor and try this place!

I've reviewed Azur before, but it is definitely worth another. If you're seated before 7:00 pm, you get 1/2 price food items. Everything was excellent - the service, the food, the atmosphere! Azur should be on everyone's list for dinner when in Key West.

This probably is the best pizza I have had in America...It was as good as the Brazilian pizzas you can have in São Paulo (best in the world)We had the burrata as an appetizer and the Diavola pizza as entree! Careful with Diavola, it is quite spicy...Nice place, nice atmosphere, friendly personnel... Not cheap, but high quality...

Yellowtail snapper with cream sauce and risotto was my choice, scallops would have been my second choice. We sat inside the bar because the outside seating was full by 7:30. There is only about 200â to the ocean, past volleyball nets and bathers. Covered seating was not enough protection from the downpour that started mid service, so some folks got up with their plates and came inside. Manager Rodney accommodated them in good humor. Food was great, fresh, well prepared. The menu suited everyoneâs taste. Watching the storm approach was wild! Our local friends go there often.

We had a late reservation which we had to switch the times and they were very accomandating. Serve was great. We stayed late, but never felt like they were trying to rush us. Martinis were very good. Great choices. Food was great too. Good section to pick from on the menu. Would go back again....Thank you for choosing to dine with us! So happy you had such a delightful meal with us! We look forward to seeing you next time!

My wife down here for a wedding and we stumbled a upon this Pizzeria. We were all sitting around the pool one afternoon and I was in the mood for some Pizza. I remembered passing Duettos on way to wedding reception and figured letâs give them a try. Was pleasantly surprised to say the least. Iâm from a place that has some of the best pizza in the Country. I ordered 3 pies, went there to pick up the pies up and bring back to hotel and we ate every slice. There was like 10 of us. We All enjoyed it very much. Definitely will go back when we come to Key West again. Great Job!
