    Crab cakes
    Elizabeth H.

    Great menu with good meat and seafood options at reasonable prices with interesting presentations of classic items. We shared conch fritters as appetizer which were fried perfectly with crunch without grease. 4 fritters with a key lime mustard dipping sauce. I had crab cakes that came in a vertical shape and had a lot more crab than cake which I appreciate . It was delicious And my brother ordered prime rib which was served with baked potato.... Both were served as ordered prime rib medium rare and potato crispy skin but moist interior . Portions are generous. Service was attentive and quick. Room has that waterfront feel and was light and airy . Place was packed on a Wed night off season.

    We had an amazing waitress, food was delicious and the restaurant had a small elegant feel but also was fine to wear our shorts and tees!

    Food is delicious! We ordered the prime rib with lobster. Service is good. Ambiance is good. Highly recommended for the prime rib.

    I didn't want to leave a bad review but my kids urged me to do so. The staffs were wonderful and very nice. The restaurant was nice with classic Nantucket feel to it. What's missing is the food. Except the prime rib which is decent, the lobster, the shrimp and the Duffy steak were all pretty sad. They ruined the steak by pouring massive amount of teriyaki sauce. The lobster was very overcooked. I just wanted to point out again the service was good but the food we got made us feel like a tourist trap.

    Best prime rib I've ever had in my life. Super cool old-school style restaurant. Amazing food and experience, 10 out of 10 would recommend.

    Dinner Salad, Coconut Shrimp, Prime Rib & Lobster & Key Lime Pie.

    We drove from Miami to Key West which took a few hours due to all the traffic and the scenic highway, bridges with water on both sides. Without reservations, we were fortunate to find this restaurant. We started with a Caesar salad and a dinner salad. My daughter and I both enjoyed the fried coconut shrimp, while my hubby had the prime rib and lobster tail with a baked potato. For dessert, we shared a refreshing slice of key lime pie.

    Prime rib

    Steaks cooked perfectly. Lobster tail way too overdone. Does not come with drawn butter just hot oil. It tastes nothing like butter and when hot butter cools it starts to harden back up this stayed a complete oil. Lobster so tough and overcooked I had trouble cutting it with my steak knife. This is to bad. It is not cheap. Service was good. Waitress was friendly and pleasant.

    While searching the web for a new dinner place to try, we stumbled upon Duffy's and just had to stop in! The food was delicious and the pasta dishes could easily be shared with 2 people!

    Food was great. Off the beaten path a little so it was not the packed craziness of Duvall street. Relaxed ambiance.

Real easy to walk right past it without a second thought. But step inside... and now you're in a whole different story.

Sure, maybe there was a little drinking involved but truth be told, it's the atmosphere doing most of the heavy lifting.

The food holds its own too solid comfort stuff that hits right when you need it and the service keeps things moving smooth without missing a beat.

While I was checking it out, the bouncer at the bar next door told me it was worth a visit, which sealed the deal. Later that evening, I convinced my friends to go with me. They were expecting a full sit-down dinner, but this is more of a counter-service spot with 6-7 bar stools inside. The setup is simple: place your order at the counter, then either grab a stool or head to the bar next door, where they'll bring your food when it's ready. We chose the bar's patio, which gave us a clear view of the restaurant. It was reassuring to see other groups having their meals delivered over too--it felt like we had discovered the right local gem. The wait was about 25-30 minutes, but that only confirmed everything was being made fresh. And let me tell you, it was absolutely worth it. Our group ordered two jerk chicken plates with plantains, mac n' cheese, and slaw; one oxtail with black beans, rice, and mac n' cheese; and one jerk burger with fries. Every single dish was a hit. The jerk chicken had that perfect smoky spice and heat from the scotch bonnet peppers, balanced with bold Caribbean flavors. The oxtail was tender and flavorful, and even the sides like mac n' cheese and plantains stood out. All in all, this was easily one of the best Caribbean meals I've had anywhere. A true must try when in Key West.
