Good Mediterranean food , good service. Do not expect complimentary breads (I am used to after living in mid west and west of US ) Food came out nice, well in time and fresh though, so even out. We got hummus platter twice, it was good. Rest we picked from Kebabs and platters which came out good. Wish we could understand the language. Staff was having fun with other customers and we could not break the ice ‍ Party of 8, with 4 kids, we got the table real quick. Sitting was indoor was decent ventilation. Parking IS a hassle in FL, so plan up. read more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. When you call and have a simple question of where your delivery order is, the manager will tell you to F*** off! For such a simple question. This is a company that should not be here in Key West, or at least the management. Offensive to say the least. Telling someone off who's a regular for asking a simple question... not a good look for a company, especially when you tell them to F*** off and hang up. It has been reported. Thankfully, Doordash cares unlike Kennedy Cafe and I was refunded because of the offensive behavior on behalf of the Kennedy Cafe Team. Please hire staff that cares or reconsider management. read more

One of the best "off the beaten path" eateries in KW. They make one of the best gyros in town, ask for an extra side of their homemade tzatziki sauce. It's a no frills place but the food is good. read more

Walked in on a Tuesday evening. Got seated right away. Chicken kebab and combo kebab were good. Meat was tender and flavorful but the vegetables were soggy. Giving it 4/5. read more

I went to Kennedy cafe on a whim tonight because my partner and I wanted to try something new. I ordered the falafel wrap and my partner ordered the chicken Shawarma. We split the wraps in half and shared, they were both good but the chicken Shawarma was better! I will say the chicken was a little fatty though. We decided to order 2 baklavas to go, unfortunately, which is my fault ...I didn't check the price of the baklava and they are eight dollars each!!! The baklava are pretty big for one portion, so I now understand the price, however, the baklava was incredibly soggy and didn't have the best flavor. The service workers were very nice and the ambience was fine. read more

I stopped by for lunch one Saturday and walked in to a kind of dark restaurant with only a few patrons sitting and eating. The restaurant wasn't very attractive so I decided to take my order to go. I ordered the falafel platter not really knowing what it would come with. After a normal wait time my order was ready and I was out the door! I opened my takeout box in the car and was so excited! The falafel came with rice, a pico salsa, seasoned potatoes, tzatziki and pita bread. Everything tasted so fresh and delicious. I really enjoyed this meal and will certainly be back. read more

Kennedy Cafe - Falafel - Mediterranean Near Me - Key West, Florida

This is one of the biggest hidden gems in Key West. Great menu, great food, great prices, big portions. It's one of those places I always wonder why I don't visit more often. Delicious read more

We arrived and the place was almost empty. In a matter of 15 minutes was packed. Great place for simple comfort food and good prices for Key West. Our server, Carolina, who was wearing many hats that evening, was fantastic. Very energetic, as she was the only one serving the multitude of people, with great disposition, very simpatica and helpful. We shared Uzbek Pilaf and salad. I was extremely surprised to see the Palov on the menu. The only time I had this delicious dish was when my friend Jenya, who is Russian, made it. It was really good, it could use garlic cloves. The salad was fresh and refreshing If I was living in Key West I would be a regular at this restaurant. read more

This place is a gem! The have delicious Uzbek food (very similar to Turkish food with lots of of grilled meats) and Italian food, which we did not try. Everything we had was delicious and our server was very nice. We are going back! read more

We ordered delivery and the experience left a lot to be desired. The food was left on the porch but the text came in about 30 min after we found it. In fairness that could have been a network problem. So everything was cold. There was no excuse for the food prep though. I ordered the 'cold' sandwich, turkey and stuffing. They toasted the bread, but not just toasted it was solidly burnt. No stuffing, no cranberry as the sandwich was advertised. It was terrible. My husband got the Greek salad w lamb. The lamb was so tough it was inedible. It was also super greasy. The mozzarella sticks tasted like they were fried in 10 day old grease that fried everything, even had notes of fish. The spanakopita was chewy not crispy and very bland. Not one of us could finish the meal. I don't understand the ratings, maybe they had a really bad day but we won't go back. read more

We ordered pizza, pasta and meatballs, it was all yummy! They sent these amazing small loaves of bread with our meals!!! We ordered late at night and not expecting much but it surpassed our expectations!! read more

Kennedy Cafe - Lamb Samsa ! - Mediterranean Near Me - Key West, Florida

We arrived into Key West mid afternoon, so we stopped by here for a late lunch. It's a local place in a small strip mall not far from where we were staying. Friendly greetings as we entered, sit wherever you want. Menu is large from Italian American to Greek/Mediterranean. We kept it pretty basic, got the regular gyro and the chicken gyro with fries. Even though its listed separately on the menu, they advised there's no difference in the chicken gyro and the chicken donor. It mainly applies to the lamb meat. You're welcome. Food came out quickly with a smile, nice looking honker of a gyro & fries. Was pretty tasty, lots of meat, plenty of filling, delicious tzatziki and darn good fries. Great lunch! Service was nice & friendly, prices were ok, glad we stopped by! I would come back again the next time I'm in town. read more

Great customer service, delicious food (Italian, Mediterranean, Uzbeki), very nice staff in general. Reasonably priced, especially for Key West. Conveniently located next to an international foods market, laundromat, computer and phone repair, Liberty Tax office, and Sherwin Williams paint store. Around the corner from a Publix grocery store and other places to explore. read more

Came to Key West and staying at a resort located on Stock Island. Since the resort doesn't really do "room service", this restaurant was recommended because they will deliver to the hotel/your room. The front desk team spoke very highly of the quality of the food so we decided to give them a try. First of all, the menu is significant with choices for pretty much anyone. Fried options, healthy options, Greek and Italian options, standard type fare as well. We decided to start with the chicken fingers and the side of meatballs, and then got a Chicken salad sandwich with fries, and a Garlic and Oil Pasta which came with a beautiful little side salad. The chicken fingers had really great flavor and the batter was tasty and the chicken was a very good quality white meat. Two of our pieces had a nice crunch and two could have used a bit more frying time. The meatballs came with two baseball sized meatballs with some sauce. SOOOO good! Some of the best meatballs I have had in a long time and their marinara sauce is Fantastic! Might need to try some of their Italian pasta with red sauce next! The Chicken Salad sandwich was OK but was missing flavor. It came with lettuce, tomato and onion which helped but needed some flavor. The fries were nice and crunchy though even with delivery. The same issue with the Garlic and Oil Pasta which needed more flavor...particularly salt. You could taste the garlic but was missing that overall flavor needed to make it really terrific. To top off our meal we did get the Limoncello cake which was SOOO yummy!!! So overall we will absolutely order again and have heard that their Greek gyro is fantastic so will likely need to give that a try next time! read more

This little cafe was recommended to us by our jet ski tour guide across the street at Ibis Bay! Great locals joint if you are not in it for the foo foo stuff and just want some good food. Came here for breakfast after catching the red eye to Fort Lauderdale and landed at 2am and just rented a car and drove to Key West. After sleeping in the car for a couple hours we wanted a big breakfast to start ourselves off. This restaurant had great food, big portions, and the prices were very reasonable. The location is a little hidden in a strip mall right on the end. Just your simple diner that has a little bit of everything. Service was also great. read more

As a resident of Key west, I eat at Kennedy cafe at least monthly. Why? Prices are amazing for such an expensive tourist town, you can get a really good, no-frills, delicious meal at Kennedy cafe for half the price of anything in the touristy downtown area. My favorite is the eggplant with baked feta on top. So good! Also the Lamb gyro platter is amazing! They have my favorite lamb, rice, and tzatziki sauce, compared to other Greek restaurants around. Oh, and their lamb gyro pizza is amazing!!! Also The lasagne is really damn good. Not a fan of their meatballs or meatloaf though. Hummus, grape leaves, combo platter, all good! Don't be scared from the outside it looks dingy in a dark strip mall parking lot, but it's a locals favorite for many reasons. read more

Great food great pizza and They deliver anywhere in key west. Differently a place to try

OK, out of state but we know good Mediterranean food when we have it. Such nice people and such great service and the food was yummy, and portions large.

Kennedy Cafe - The pizza is perfect!! - Mediterranean Near Me - Key West, Florida

Food is soooooo good. Top tier eats! Everything we got was all amazing, nothing bad on the menu.

Hands down the best pizza in Key West. I was so hungry I hate it before I got photos, but I will say this is an amazing spot for pizza and wings. Reasonable priced not too far from downtown Key West so easy to get to. If you want to get out of the hustle and bustle of the tourist area downtown totally recommend this place. You will not be disappointed! It may not look like much from the outside but they are serving nothing but goodness inside! :) read more

One night we used their delivery, and twice we ate at their restaurant. Service was well above average each time. Variety of options, and portions are large. Facility is clean but no real ambiance. read more

Food is delicious Service from Kelly is sassy run and efficient She makes the place happen Breakfast is one of the best in KW Worth the trek to New Town read more

I don't like to give bad reviews. I don't like to give "maybe" reviews. But this reminded me of the old "Greek diners" i used to go to out east in New Jersey. I'm not crazy about a carpeted floor in a restaurant. It just didn't feel right. Prices were good, the food was average, the waitstaff were very nice, But I just wasn't crazy about it. So I guess I might say try it and see if you like it. -Per Rita read more

Kennedy Cafe - Menu - Mediterranean Near Me - Key West, Florida

Delicious, fresh, authentic, made from scratch food. Great and healthy alternative to some of the other offerings further into town. Bread and pitas are amazing. Slather with butter or dip in hummus and carb your troubles away! Lamb Iskander is awesome. Came with rice, salad and roasted potatoes. Seeking something lighter? Chicken and rice soup is simple, fresh and tasty. Topped with plenty of fresh dill in a clear chicken broth with plenty of shredded chicken to spoon up in each bite. Hummus was good, but in all honesty I favor a little more tartness. Still, I managed to eat almost all it all by myself! Gyros are huge. So good we visited 2 days in a row, a rarity for us when visiting a new town. Kelly, our server both days was the best. Look for her long ponytail and big smile! read more

Delicious local spot serving Mediterranean food and pasta. They make the pasta and bread homemade. 10/10 recommend. read more

Kennedy Cafe - Pepperoni roll - Mediterranean Near Me - Key West, Florida

Good, friendly service. The place is old school. Ordered the gyro wrap with a side of potato salad. The iced tea is good and strong. The gyro is huge, stuffed with lots of meat and some lettuce, pickled onions and cucumbers. Terrific! Except for the dill. Remove the dill from the gyro. Today. The potato salad was tasty but also packed with a ton of dill. Minus one star for the dill overload. Just stop. Having said that, fantastic value for your money. Recommend. read more

I have eaten here a few times and each time. The food has always been very good. The service is always great. From the outside you're not sure what you're really expecting to you get inside sit down and look at the menu. The menu is very diverse as lots of items, the pizzas look very good. I've never had one, but they do look good. The only issue I've ever had was a Greek salad. The tomatoes were very mushy. read more

We ordered the chicken, Shawarma and the Gyro. The Gyro was on par and delicious, but the chicken Shawarma wrap was confusing. We ordered the hummus with pita bread, and it was just OK. The hummus was very smooth and the texture was nice, but there was very little flavor. Both wraps came with German potato salad that had no flavor. Still not sure what that was all about. Overall and I give it four stars because they were quick, and the food was very edible. read more

We ordered delivery and it was great! We had pizza and salad and asked for plastic utensils, plates and extra napkins and they were provided. The pizza was super tasty and the cheese had great flavor, maybe a cheese blend, but it was great. The salad was plenty big and had all the goodies on it and the dressing was delicious as well. We were impressed with the accuracy, speediness and of course tastiness of our order. read more
