The staff was extremely friendly, we were seated outside promptly, and there was some nice, gentle live music. There were a few drink options (no liquor) and we enjoyed. The food came out at a good time and it was the best food we've had so far. I got a cheese arepa with black beans. The arepa itself was unlike any I've had before and its texture was soft and had a gummier cornbread feel. The taste was incredible and the beans were cooked perfectly. I also got the Cuban pork tacos on corn tortillas - the pork was perfectly tender with a delicious glaze. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a casual bite in key west!

Can't come to Key West without stopping in to get some of the best tacos on the island at Garbo's…read more It's always just been a food truck but they now have a small patio seating area next to Hanks Hair of the Dog bar. We got one order of the Cayo fish tacos to share. Each order comes with two tacos. We chose a bench in the shade on the patio where some chickens were wandering around picking up bits of food dropped by the patrons. It was fun to watch them run in a group when one spotted something had fallen. Our tacos were ready quickly and after the first bite we immediately regretted not getting a table because they are a bit messy with all the delicious toppings. Oh well! I persevered and used a napkin to soak up the juice and the chickens took care of of the rest. I will never miss an opportunity to visit Garbo's when in Key West.

It wasn't busy when I went (at 4 PM on a Tuesday in early August). The cashier was friendly, and the food came out in 5-10 minutes. I liked the outdoor, casual vibe of the place. I'll definitely be back for the tacos again! Small tortilla but totally stuffed, and so worth $4 each for Taco Tuesday or happy hour trio.

I don't think it was as strong as some other Cuban coffee I've had but I appreciated that it wasn't overly sweet, so you still got a nice coffee flavor without being overpowered by sugar.

The conch fritters were overcooked and burnt. They were extremely hard and crunchy. We did notice that the cook stepped away for a long time while our conch fritters were in the deep fryer cooking, causing them to be overcooked. However, we were the only customers there, so they could have easily remade a fresh batch that was not overcooked. I would not try this shack again or recommend it to others.

It's a very spot, with just enough standing room for a few people inside and a couple of high-top tables outside to enjoy your pizza. It's located a few storefronts down from Duval Street, and there was a steady flow of people coming in and out, so it was definitely busy, but not overwhelming. I still received my pizza in about 10 minutes, which I appreciated. We ordered a large pizza, half Philly cheesesteak and half chicken. The Philly cheesesteak pizza is actually the one that's been the most hyped on TikTok, so I was especially excited to try it. I originally wanted to just grab a slice, but they only offer cheese and pepperoni by the slice, so keep that in mind. The pizza came out hot, fresh, and looked really good. However, the taste didn't quite match the hype for me. The steak and chicken both lacked seasoning, which made the overall flavor fall a bit flat. It wasn't horrible, but it definitely could have been much better with a little more seasoning. Overall, it's a decent late night bite, but in my opinion, not quite worth all the hype it gets on TikTok.

Our research told us that this would be a great meal and it truly was. I ordered the pork chunks, which were perfectly fried and so flavorful and tender on the inside. My wife ordered Ropa Vieja which was pulled beef, which wasn't as good, but still quite tasty. Had to bring food back home with us, which we ate for various snacks before we departed.

I've been to El Siboney a number of times over the years and am finally getting around to writing…read morethis review. The restaurant is tucked away on a back street, far from the usual tourist spots, which adds to its charm. The food is authentic Cuban cuisine -- and I say that after decades of living in and around Hudson County, NJ, where the Cuban community is large and vibrant. At El Siboney, everything tastes fresh and homemade, with generous portions and prices that are refreshingly reasonable for Key West. This visit, I ordered the whole fried yellow snapper, served with yuca, yellow rice, and beans. My dinner companion had the Siboney skirt steak, one of the restaurant's popular dishes, served with a choice of sides. Both meals were excellent. Dessert was equally impressive: a delicious slice of tres leches cake and silky vanilla custard that were the perfect ending to the meal. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. Dinner for two, including dessert and tip, came to about $100 -- a great value for the quality and quantity of food. El Siboney remains one of my favorite places to eat in Key West.
