Best Caribbean restaurants nearby. Discover the best Caribbean food in Key West. View Menus, Photos and Reviews for Caribbean restaurants near you.. Does time ever pass in the Florida Keys? Everyone and everything in Key West seems to go at its own pace, right down to the ice melting slooooowly in your margarita glass. Of course, it’s not all limes and leisure – Key West is known as the “Winter White House” because of its appeal to visiting U.S. presidents, and the island has been home to literary greats like Ernest Hemingway and Tennessee Williams. The diving here is phenomenal, as is the kid-friendly Florida Keys Eco-Discovery Center.

I've given this place good reviews in the past. Not this year. We did not care for the new menu. It also seems that the quality diminished while the prices increased. Easily the worst lunch we had during our visit to key west. We thought it was a fluke. But Breakfast was almost as bad. I would not eat there again. Pricey- especially when both of us left most of our food and drink on the table. Read my other reviews-- rarely do i pan a place. This was not good.

It is a very small establishment but if eating with other people is a problem, you can always get take out or have it delivered. Well worth it. We also has the flan but started eating it as soon as it arrived and forgot to take a picture. It was fabuloso!Ohmgosh thank you so much!

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 200’ 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 everyone’s taste. Watching the storm approach was wild! Our local friends go there often.

Definitely a local gem, not "touristy", worth the trip to this interesting neighborhood. Very wide variety of dishes - fresh fish, chicken, goat, etc. Large portions, nice presentation, expertly assembled combinations of sauce, vegetables, & meats. Quite apparent that the chef is serious about craft & technique. Will definitely be going back to this place.

Stopped in for supper while visiting KW. Found the restaurant to be very clean and welcoming. Very much a family style place. Ordered the roast pork and my wife had fish. I had enough for 2 meals and took plenty back to the hotel. Prices were very fair and service was great. We'll be back if/when we get to KW.

The Flaming Buoy Filet Co.

An "only in Key West" restaurant, The Flaming Buoy Filet Co. makes a statement on the hushed stage of a residential neighborhood. It is one part retro supper club, one part sassy corner bistro, and one part highly personal whim. Fred Isch, self-proclaimed

Let us start with AWESOME EXPERIENCE. While staying at a hotel close by - we asked one of the staff what their favorite local restaurant was. Without hesitation they said “The Flaming Bouy”. At the last minute one of the managers was able to get us in - oh nice ! For this trip - we were celebrating our 20th anniversary - and while we have eaten at our fare share of Five Star and Three Michelin Star restaurants - we can honestly say our experience rivaled any of them. The food was great (try the Lobster Mac & Cheese), and the service was impeccable. Big THANK YOU to both Fred and Scott for making our 20th Anniversary a memorable one. And to Scott’s mom - two thumbs up. Thank you both so much and, again, congratulations! We were so happy to have met ya's and we look forward to feeding you again.Scot,Co-Owner, The Flaming Buoy Filet Co.

5 couples ate dinner last week. One of the couples just bought a home on the key, we will be visiting a few times a year. The food was ok, incredibly overpriced for average courses The drinks Goombay drink was all water. Sitting on plastic Dollar Store chairs, picnic style tables Very confused on why this restaurant gets so many great reviews. Lastly, our bill was all on one check. No sub total per couple... all on one bill!!! So if you did not bring cash the one couple had to put the whole amount on their card ! WHAT??!! It’s 2019 and your establishment can not separate a bill ? Terrible. So after our below average, overpriced dinner 10 people sat there determining how much they owe ..., tip, tax etc.... Absolutely will not return.

We really enjoyed the burgers and tacos we purchased from this perma-food truck. Prices were very reasonable and a great option if your wallet needs a break from the not so cheap restaurants in Key West. Lots of outdoor seating and a little bar is located right next to the food truck that has a few fun beer selections on tap. We would certainly visit here again.
