Can't come to Key West without stopping in to get some of the best tacos on the island at Garbo's. 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. read more

I am giving Garbo's Grills four stars overall. The food was solid and tasty, and it hit the spot for what I was craving. While it was enjoyable, nothing really stood out as extraordinary or memorable. The menu had a good variety, and the service was friendly enough, making it a comfortable place to stop for a casual meal. The atmosphere was straightforward and unpretentious, which made it easy to enjoy a quick bite without any fuss. Portions were reasonable, and prices were fair for the quality of food. Overall, it is a dependable spot for a casual meal when you are nearby, even if it does not leave a lasting impression. It is worth visiting if you are in the area and looking for something simple and satisfying. read more

This was another stop on our meandering evening walk and we lingered here for quite a while to enjoy the live musical performances at the adjoining Hank's Hair of the Dog Saloon with a talented singer and guitar player, Noah. We took a break and headed over to the food truck placed on site and ordered fantastic shrimp tacos and cold beer. Dining seating is scattered around the patio and service is fast and friendly. read more

Only 4 tables on a cute nicely shaded patio and it was busy for a Tuesday lunch. Food truck style ordering. We had shrimp Cayo Bowl and a Fish Cayo Bowl. Plenty of food. Fish was flaky and perfectly cooked. So was the shrimp. Sauce was tangy and paired well with the other toppings read more

The burger was great, Korean beef tacos were very flavorful and full of meat (dry and saucy at the same time). Shrimp tacos were pretty good but cold. Service was fast and friendly. Live music from place it is attached to. Very minimal seating and tables/chairs were not very clean. Wouldn't avoid the place and wouldn't seek it out either. read more

The umami burger is a must! Come hungry. Because you will eat the whole thing. The waitstaff is awesome and the place is cozy. Great spot to stop and grab a quick bite before walking on Duval. read more

Easily one of the worst burgers i've ever had & it was $17! We ordered a umami burger & it was so overcooked you couldn't taste anything except char. It was a hockey puck, cooked so long there wasn't a drop of moisture in it, and it was literally inedible. When I told the worker guy, he just said sorry. No bueno. read more

I decided to try this food truck because everyone was raving about the burgers. I let the server pick my meal for me as I wanted to try the most popular burger. Service was quick and I was able to entertain myself in the neighboring establishment while I waited. The burger was so tasty that I didn't need to add any condiments. The meat was a little on the salty side but well cooked. I thoroughly enjoyed my food and definitely plan to return the next time I visit Key West. read more

Great place to grab a bite from a food truck hooked onto hanks bar. Food is fresh . Hot dogs on the spicier side with fresh mango and sauce and a sweeter soft bun. The bowls are full of great fresh shrimp and slaw. Very flavorful. Took a while as they were one person down, yet with live music and dogs from hanks bar it did not matter to us much. read more

First let me say this was a late night snack. I had a beef burrito that was Korean style I believe. The meat which was 95%+ beef was very tender cuts of beef. There was very little if any for fill like cabbage or any vegetables. also the meat was so saturated with soy and other seasoning that you could not hold it. It was dripping everywhere. My experience with Asian is a little go goes a long way for soy or other seasonings. I know they come highly rated but I think they could tailor this to still be a very popular offering and much more profitable with some cabbage and carrot and less of that very tender beef. read more

Great spot for food and drinks in a fun outdoor beer garden environment that somehow feels secluded from the hustle of nearby Duval Street. The food is awesome: a fun menu of quick, fresh, and flavorful made-to-order meals at a good price point. Unfussy but nutritious. Bar atmosphere is energetic but not overwhelming. Great drinks with relaxed but friendly service, great music. Definitely hit up this spot! read more

This was a spot off the beaten path in town. Such a cool spot for a night time snack and cocktail! A tropical oasis good music and not a huge crowd. Service was great, very helpful with the different choices offered. I had the Korean bbq burrito and my sister had the beef burger which was excellent! We shared the chips and enjoyed every mouthful. Highly recommend Garbos for your snacking pleasure! read more

Every time I visit Garbo's I'm surprised by the portion size. There no such thing as a small meal and that's okay! Seats are a premium and you may find yourself standing for dinner. However, Key West is the perfect place to eat outside with some lights hanging from the trees with a live band playing. It's good for families, good for couples, and a pretty good place overall for a fairly quick bite to eat. read more

Came here for dinner during our first evening in town. We walked right up to it just off of Duval Street and had no idea it was attached to a bar with live music going on. A pleasant surprise. So we found a table, got some drinks, and then came over to order some grub. We started off with the Yum Yum Shrimp Burrito (house made mango ginger habanero glazed shrimp, served Cayo Style (red cabbage, mango, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, and our house Caribbean sauce)). This thing was massive. And it was delicious. Massively delicious. Good amount of shrimp in there, cooked well, with a sweet heat from the glaze, beautiful. Lots of veg inside, too, but not too much, everything had it's purpose. Crunchy red cabbage, bite from the onion, heat from the jalapeno, it was just very good. Get this. Next came the UmamiBurger (1/2lb fresh ground angus, topped with a heirloom tomato, applewood bacon, chipotle gouda then served on a grilled brioche bun. If you are feeling adventurous ask for the Landon Calrissian). This thing was also huge. I had no idea I'd get excellent portion sizes on an island that's basically a tourist trap. This burger was perfect. I can't stress that enough. Just go look at the pic. Large, juicy, well-seasoned, extra cheesy, perfect amount of veg, a strong bun, served with Voodoo chips. This might be the best thing I ate all my time on Key West. Oh, and yes, I did get the Lando(n?) Calrissian. What that is is a heaping scoop of their Korean beef bulgogi in addition to their burger patty. So good. So ridiculous it was a lot of fun. The final thing were the Korean BBQ Tacos (house made marinated beef short rib, napa cabbage, scallions, carrots, daikon, cilantro, citrus soy dressing, and sriracha). These were less tacos and more just an excessive amount of meat falling off of a tortilla. Not complaining. It was excellent. Their marinade was very apartment and strong. But not too strong. All the little veg items basically made this a delicious bahn mi taco. Very good. My visit here was amazing. Amazing food, amazing patio with live music, a full bar on property with booze and N/A options. Honestly, if I ever come back to the Keys, I'd come back here. read more

I believe all Yelpers love a good food truck. This happens to be one of the best ever. They only have about 6 items on their menu which helps them master the flavors of everything they serve to perfection. In Key West, people tend to gravitate toward seafood and then you find yourself craving a burger. This burger, made with Korean beef and gruyere cheese was the best ever. It was huge and even though the walk was pretty far, it was still hot when my husband got back to the hotel. Service was a little slow but that is only because they cook everything to perfection. It is a must stop! read more

Pros: Ambiance is unparalleled. A food truck in the middle of a big patio with a live music stage. Music every night of the year. A bar in the middle of that patio, too. What else could you ask for? Service was good. Bartenders are walking around, checking on you pretty consistently. The food itself took a long time to be ready, but that's ok. The music occupied us. The food itself was surprising quality for coming from a truck. Very well marinated beef, a huge, juicy burger patty, and Voodoo chips! Cons: No real cons. Just be prepared for the food to take a while. Tips: Get the burger. Ask for it Lando Calrissian style. Trust me. read more

Just WOW! This food truck has been a family favorite for years. We first heard about it from a family member three years ago, and it's been a must-visit every time we're on vacation in the area. (which is every year, Key West is our go to) Honestly, we've never had a bad meal here--the food is consistently delicious, creative, and packed with flavor. When we first started coming, finding the truck was a bit of an adventure since it was tucked away in the backyard. However, with the recent move to the front yard, it's much more visible and easier to access. I noticed they've added a stage back where the truck used to be, which was a surprise but a great one! The new location will definitely draw in more people, especially those walking by who might not have known about this hidden gem before. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this food truck is worth a visit. It's more than just a place to eat--it's an experience that keeps us coming back year after year. The first year we visited, we tried the tacos and burrito, was delis, and this time we decided to go for the burger. Holy mother of Moses--it was pure perfection! Juicy, flavorful, and served warm, it was everything a burger should be and more. It came with chips on the side, which we don't usually care for, but these voodoo Louisiana chips were an absolute delight--tangy with a hint of vinegar and just the right touch of paprika. Amazing! We were going to happy hour at another place later, so we weren't planning to eat much, but oh boy, are we glad we stopped here for a quick snack. That burger truly blew us away with its incredible taste. Now we can't wait to come back and explore more items. Honestly, there's so much great food in Key West that picking the right spot can be tricky, but we absolutely nailed it with this one! Highly recommend. read more

Garbo's Grill - Fish tacos and Korean tacos - Food Trucks Near Me - Key West, Florida

It was okay--definitely a bit overhyped by social media. The flavors leaned heavily salty and oily, not typical of Korean BBQ-style meats, but lacked the depth and aroma you'd expect. On the plus side, the portions were generous. The food truck shares space with a laid-back, bungalow-style bar called Hair of the Dog Saloon. You can actually get a great combo deal by ordering tacos from the truck and drinks from the bar, though we only noticed that after we'd already ordered. The best part of this place was the live music on the back patio. The female performer had such a lovely presence, and her smooth, laid-back jazz vocals were the perfect soundtrack to the evening as the sun set. Overall, it's a solid spot for a quick bite or a late-night meal after drinks, but not something I'd go out of my way for. read more

Nothing fancy. Tables are in an outdoor lot and the food is freshly cooked. I didn't know it was a Guy Fieri stop, so in that case I would have expected a bit better. But I liked the casual vibe. As others have mentioned, there's nothing that really stands out that would have me return. read more

My shuttle driver was a local and happy to share his favorite places to eat. I visited Garbo's Grill, an outdoor food truck. I went inside the bar to get a drink and then ordered the Korean BBQ tacos. Wow!!!! These were fantastic! Very short wait. The meat was so flavorful and moist. Pro tip-eat over your cardboard container and get extra napkins! Very nice courtyard seating, outdoor patio heaters, lots to look at, including the beautiful roosters. Loved my food! read more

Had the lobster roll... and it was good... but what would make it way better is if it was served on real buttered toasted bun, and then a drizzle of melted butter on the lobster... the bun was toasted, but it wasn't buttered. Doing that would add so much more flavor. It is a little pricey for what you actually get, tho. read more

Stopped by for lunch on a Thursday and we were able to find seats at the bar so we could cool off. It wasn't apparent at first, but you order at the food truck and pick-up when your order is ready. Their Cayo Bowl was absolutely delicious, but we thought their Lobster Roll was just OK. read more

If you are in Key West and are hoping to find a good BBQ restaurant, then stop by here for sure! They are well known for their delicious Korean BBQ Beef Tacos!! We split the order because they give you generous portions. They are incredibly delicious! Garbo's shares their location in the back of Hank's Hair of the Dog. You can use their outdoor dining tables and grab some beer or drinks at Hank's to go with your meal. This really works out great for both owners and their guests. They have lively music for your enjoyment. The service is friendly and attentive. The prices are very reasonable for what you get. You will love the vibe here! read more

Amazing food. The Korean beef tacos were so good. I wish we had been there for happy hour (4-6) to get the taco trio so I could try all three taco options. They made a cheeseburger and bacon wrap hotdog for our kids. It was an easy place to park our double stroller because it's a food truck sitting outside of a saloon with seating and it wasn't too busy during spring break week. There was no wait and the service was quick. The staff was very friendly. Highly recommend. read more

Had a few beers, cocktails, and a lobster roll here (I know - every other places that serves were closed).
