    Came here during our 10th anniversary trip - food and ambiance were great. Service was good. We went with the Burrata (fantastic) as a starter and then shared the Pappardelle (Good, not great). No real complaints. The only gripe was that our table was right next to the hostess stand and it was a bit cumbersome at times. I forgot to take photos of dinner

    Food was great! The pasta was amazing and all the sauce was very flavorful. The pineapple cake was delish. Unfortunately service was so incredibly slow here.

    Great ambiance and setting. Service was fanatic as was the food. For dessert- choose the pineapple upside cake over the key lime pie. Not crazy about the soft crust and caramelized top.

    Really cool vibe of this restaurant- an old house on Duval street, covered in plants and vines, with seating outside and inside (front yard, lower and upper wrap around deck, rooms in the house). There's a bar inside on both floors, and separate rooms with long tables for big parties. Cool wallpaper, decor, and music- ambiance is 10/10. I ordered the cheese board (SKIP- it's average and tastes like it's out of a lunchbox), and the bacon wrapped dates that are stuffed with blue cheese (the bacon was extra crispy, the blue cheese both chunky and creamy, and it really was the perfect bite). Also ordered the beef bolognese pappardelle (homemade al dente noodles with a creamy sauce and large chunks of Wagyu beef) and the whole yellowtail snapper. The whole yellowtail snapper is their signature dish and it was the star. The fish was fresh, flaky, and juicy, with a crispy skin; and the Thai fish sauce paired perfectly with the fish. Would come back and order this dish again, 100%.

    Located on Duval Street, this restaurant sits in a cute building with stylish indoor and outdoor seating. We were seated away from the street, on the first floor. The food and drinks were very good. Our entrees, though very small in size, packed a flavor of punch. For the area, this was a pricier spot we went on our trip (although we do find everywhere in Key West to be pricier). Definitely a spot you'll need reservations. Highly recommend just sitting at the small bar in the main area, it was a total vibe. We did have the strangest experience with our waitress, she barely spoke to us. She was possibly the most unfriendly server we've encountered. We figured she must have been going through something and everyone is allowed bad days, but it was quite a shame that it tarnished our experience. This doesn't take away from the fact that the food and drinks were great! Just made us feel a bit awkward.

    We decided at the last minute to go here and ended up with a perfect evening. Sitting outside by the sidewalk, we started with a very reasonably priced bottle of Albariño. Since we had skipped lunch, a big dinner was in order: fried cauliflower and bacon wrapped dates for appetizers; then seafood soup and grouper for dinner. Five stars to the appetizers. The soup was not really spicy enough abd needed more fish. Grouper was excellent but accompanying risotto wasn't the best. Great service.

    Octopus (only one)

    Our first time in Key West, and this was our very first meal. Strolling down Duval Avenue, we came across this place and were impressed with the menu. So we went in without a reservation, hoping to get a table for two. There was a lot to like about this place, but unfortunately the execution fell short. Food: We weren't very hungry, so we ordered several appetizers, which I personally love since it allows for more variety. We started with two specialty cocktails: the Private Label Old Fashioned and the Bubba Salted Caramel Martini. And when they say salted, they really mean it. It looked like the glass had literally fallen into the salt tray. I ended up wiping most of it off with a napkin. That said, the flavor of both drinks was good. For food, we began with the Zucchini Fritters, which the server said were a local favorite. They were very tasty, but the presentation was a mess. The tzatziki looked like it had been smeared across the plate without much care. The fritters themselves were nice and hot, flavorful, and paired well with the cool, refreshing sauce. We followed that with the Grilled Octopus and the Ahi Tuna Gravlax. The octopus was nicely grilled, tender, and served at a good temperature, although the chickpeas were a bit bland. Again, the presentation lacked attention to detail. The ahi tuna, however, was excellent in both flavor and presentation. Service: We didn't have reservations, but there was first-come seating on the second floor, and several tables were open. Unfortunately, the service throughout the meal was very spotty. After being seated and receiving water, we waited about 10 minutes before the server returned with menus and took our drink order. The drinks also took some time to arrive. After our food was served, we didn't see our server again for quite a while. We felt largely forgotten, and other nearby tables appeared to be experiencing the same thing. The server was friendly and pleasant, but didn't seem particularly attentive or engaged. Atmosphere: The space itself is charming, with multiple seating areas and nice views of the activity along Duval Street. We had a secluded spot on the second floor, which was very pleasant. There are bars on both floors, and the overall energy was lively. It was occasionally loud, but not so much that it interfered with conversation. This could have easily been a place we would have returned to. Unfortunately, the inconsistent service and lack of attention to presentation made it fall short. This restaurant generally receives strong reviews, so perhaps it was just an off night. I also noticed afterward that the octopus dish previously included two tentacles (based on photos from last fall), but now only includes one. It's unclear whether the price was adjusted accordingly. There are plenty of excellent restaurants in Key West, and unfortunately this one didn't make our list for a return visit.

    Out of this world dinner this evening at Nine One Five! Service great, food and beverages amazing, ambiance chic Key West. It's not a big place, but that's the key! Found online from reviews, and so glad we found it! Dani was our waitress, 10/10, thank you ma'am! Cocktails (martinis) were great, followed by a great Pinot Noir... solid wine list at this place... best we've seen in Key West so far! Appetizers include the mussels, from New Zealand... HUGE and delicious! The ahi tuna carpaccio was equally delightful! Entrees include a full fish yellow tail and the filet with fries... both amazing! Best fries we've had in years! Dessert was the key lime bar, different but perhaps the best key lime presentation in Key West! Highly recommend Nine One Five!

    This place is honestly such a solid place for us in key west. We always enjoy our food here and the service is always good. This time around we had the Devils and the Airline Chicken. Both were delicious. We typically get the zucchini fritters and the octopus as well, but this night we weren't too hungry so we skipped out on our usuals, but I highly recommend those appetizers. I've never had a bad meal here, and we've been dozens of times.

    Key lime bar
    Alana L.

    Enjoyed an exceptional meal at Nine One Five. A nice selection of zero proof beverages & a comfortable bar area that offers full dinner service. Our friendly waitress made super recommendations and we enjoyed the starters and delicious main course. For the key lime bar, if you find the flavors of other key lime desserts too intense, their key lime bar is a good option because it's more honey forward with only a whisper of key lime. So, if your a key lime flavor lover, give their spin on the Key West classic a pass. We recommend Nine One Five to any and all!

    The food was outstanding! I would honestly give the food 6 stars if I could. My she-crab ravioli was amazing!!! The drinks were pretty good too but where it fell short for me was the service. Honestly, Key West is such a chill and relaxed vibe and we had nothing but welcoming and friendly service every where but here. While the order was correct and everything came to the table effectively, the service was just cold and uninterested. We were also celebrating our wedding anniversary there that night and received zero acknowledgment of our special occasion. Not even a congratulations from any one which I thought was a fail for a restaurant of this caliber. The ambiance is very nice, the garden and the porch seating is very pretty. Overall, I would recommend it for the quality of food but I will most likely not return due to disappointing service and lack of appreciation for our patronage.

    The good people of /r/KeyWest on Reddit told me to try the Tuna Gravlax. I did. It was absolutely outstanding. (You should go to Nine One Five just for that!) What /r/KeyWest did not adequately express is how fantastic the service was and how good everything else on the menu was! I visited twice in four days. The She-Crab Ravioli, Beef Carpaccio, and Mongolian Ribs were additional standouts at this vibrant-yet-relaxing, quintessentially Key West-hip restaurant.

    What's the dress code?

    It ranges, I felt comfortable in a simple sundress and sandals and saw people dressed up a little more. Probably not tshirt and shorts but just about anything else would be ok.

    Are Reservations recommended?

    I recommend that you do call ahead for a reservation.

    Can we bring our own bottles of wine and be charged a corking fee?

    Yes

    I stopped by Captain Tony's Saloon and it was such a fun, classic Key West experience…read more The vibe is exactly what you'd want, laid-back, a little quirky, and full of character. There was live music playing, pool tables, and even some video games, so there's plenty to keep you and the family entertained while you hang out. Kids are allowed in, but they aren't allowed to sit at the bar. It definitely feels like one of those places where you can lose track of time in the best way. They also have a merch area with hoodies, stickers, and other souvenirs if you want to take a little piece of the experience home. And knowing it's one of the oldest bars in the Keys just adds to the charm and history of the place. The service was quick, you walk up to the bar and order then find a place to sit. Super chill and laid back. One fun thing you have to try is tossing a quarter into the fish's mouth outside... test your luck and see if you can land it! Can't forget the drinks! The rum punch is to die for... super refreshing and perfect for the Key West heat. Overall, such a fun stop if you're in town. Definitely worth checking out! Fun fact: - it used to be a morgue and ice house back in the day. it also used to be the original home of Sloppy Joes, before they moved to Duvall St.

Of course it is an attraction because it is supposedly the original Sloppy Joes where Ernest Hemingway hung out. It is dark inside with low ceilings. People have hung paper currency all over and you will also see lots of bras hanging from the ceiling. There is live music and lots of people watching. We enjoyed our drinks and the fun atmosphere.

I've had dessert in the desert near Area 51, And underground in Antarctica, far from the sun. I've had it in graveyards, beneath moonlight so fair, And even in a dessert restaurant, yes, I've had dessert there! At Better Than Sex, the Fever was mine, And it tasted so splendid, so luscious, divine. I tried one of their special coffees as well, And it was so delicious, I nearly swooned under its spell. But the night's grandest moment, the finest display, Was when our waiter arrived with the desserts on a tray. He looked straight in my eyes as he named each delight, With a confidence both curious and wonderfully bright. My dessert was a huge phallus, impressive and grand, With two giant balls resting beneath it in hand. It was covered in "splooge sauce," a curious sweet stream, A dessert of such drama it belonged in a dream! I truly enjoyed this place and would gladly return If I lived nearby, where the sweet candles burn.

We settled on the cookie nookie cake, it was super fresh with many contrasting flavors that made every bite a pleasure. Overall had an amazing time and recommend this place for anything from a late night dessert or a full dessert meal. If we're ever around again, we are definitely going back and trying a lot more than just one dessert.
