    Conch Fritters
    Brianna T.

    Not bad! The lobster pizza was the best thing we had, but also enjoyed the coconut shrimp and conch fritters! Loved the key lime pie drink! And ofc such a pretty location.

    "The Seaside Café Signature" - Honey-Butter Lobster Biscuits

    We were pleasantly surprised at how awesome this lunch was. A food truck, a nice bar, and great service. Everyone enjoyed their meals except for the chicken tenders which aren't pictured. They were a little overcooked and boring. But the rest of the food was amazing!! Lobster Pizza and the lobster on the honey biscuits are to die for. And for those alone I would return here. Coconut shrimp is cooked to perfection and the conch fritters were some of the best I have ever had. Drinks were good too. We highly recommend this place.

    If you are in Key West and do not stop by Seaside Cafe at the Mansion, you are seriously missing out. The setting alone is worth the visit. It is a beautiful outdoor space right near the beach, with tables set up under umbrellas and a charming bar that makes the whole experience feel relaxed and coastal. Sitting outside with the ocean breeze and a drink in hand was pure perfection. From the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly warm and welcoming. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and you can tell they truly care about making your experience special. We tried both versions of the key lime pie and they were absolutely delicious, perfectly balanced, tart and sweet, with that creamy texture you hope for in a true Key West slice. The drinks were just as impressive especially for Happy Hour. The Key Lime Pie Martini is an absolute must. I am not exaggerating when I say it was one of the best dessert cocktails I have ever had. It tasted like a slice of pie in a glass, smooth, refreshing, and dangerously good. Beautiful outdoor setting, wonderful people, incredible desserts and cocktails. I highly recommend stopping here, especially for the Key Lime Pie Martini. You will thank me later. I will definitely be back for the Lobster pizza; unfortunately, we had other dinner arrangements so we missed getting to try it.

    This place makes dreams come true combining my two favorite things lobster and pizza and nailing it. It truly deserves a medal. I could go on and on and on about how it's amazing but just do yourself a favor and go there and try it for yourself and you will thank me. The strawberry salad, and honey biscuit is a great pair with the pizza and very tasty. The seating is all outdoors on the water. They do close at 8 PM so make sure to get there at a decent time. The service was quick and efficient.

    We stopped in here to get out of the rain and have a cocktail. I wish we hadn't already had a late breakfast because the pizzas looked so good. We sat at the bar and had a great time chatting with the bartender, enjoying the view of the ocean beyond the tables. He enjoyed his beer and I really loved the Strawberry Lemongrass Mojito! I highly recommend it!

    The scenery is beautiful, you're sitting right on the water. The service is great, everyone is so pleasant and quick. The entire meal was spectacular! The watermelon margarita was handcrafted, none of those fake overly sweet mixers. The honey butter biscuits were as if a biscuit met a funnel cake, added lobster and turned it into a sandwich. The perfect mix of sweet and salty. The Lobster Bianca is a lobster pizza. They use fontina cheese which takes this pizza to another level. They do not skimp out on the lobster at all, there are chunks all over the pizza. I've been to key west many times and this meal tops any other place I've been to. Seaside Cafe is a must try!

    We were enticed by the lobster pizza sign and decided to get a table for 4. The cafe had just opened and was getting busy thanks to the nearby Southernmost Point in US buoy tourist photo opp. I checked their Web site and found a code for 20% off food. Bingo! We enjoyed the lobster pizza, and we added extra lobster for $11 which turned out to be a good portion. Three of us had an adult bevvie- my $14 key lime pina colada was good, and the others liked their $9 key lime hard seltzer. The table and chairs are in the sand, which is such a fun experience! The cafe is literally steps from the ocean, and the view is amazing! Lots of birds were trying to join us for our meal, and employees walked around with spray bottles to ward them off which didn't work. When we got the check, I was pleased to see the 20% discount applied to the entire bill! This was a $14 savings which is no small potatoes. Thanks bundles Seaside Cafe!

    Lobster pizza and Parmesan fries were AMAZING! Great view with table near the water. If you go to their website they have 20% off coupon for food.

    Vegan pizza
    Maria W.

    The vegan pizza was good and tasty; they didn't have a lot of vegan options on the menu. I got the pizza because it was customizable, so I got it without cheese and meat. The pizza tasted primarily of tomato paste with veggies. I wish they had more options outside of a salad. The dining experience was disturbed by all the free roaming roosters and plague of seagulls scooping in for a bite to eat and walking on tables as I ate. It was nice seeing the waves come in.

    Sunset at the pier

    Steps away from the southernmost point (pier and buoy.) Service was quick, meals were good and view was great. Key lime pie was ok. Take a pic in the oversized chair outside. Conch fritters were ok, curry cauliflower was ON POINT.

    I'm surprised by the quality of the food here! The restaurant seems very "tourist trap" due to its proximity to the buoy, but the food was very good and high quality. The prices were reasonable for the quality. The drinks were super yummy and boozy, and the prices on those weren't bad either. The service was a little on the slower side, but it wasn't a big deal as the restaurant is on the water and nice to hang out around for a while. If you're out doing tourist stuff, this is a great spot to stop in!

    Pros: Picturesque scenery outlooking the water made for a beautiful little lunch. Service was great. A whole bunch of beachy people running to and fro with drinks and food. We were well taken care of the whole time. Food was good and unique. Definitely different from the normal stuff at other nearby eateries. Cons: No cons. I assume it would be bad eating in bad weather, since it's all outdoor, but our weather was perfect. Tips: Two words. Lobster pizza. That is all. The tuna cups were a lot of fun, too.

    We had a busy day touring around Key West, and we needed to stop in the middle of the day for lunch. We have heard of the legendary lobster pizza they have here, so we had to come and check it out. We walk up and get seated right away. Surprising in the middle of a busy day. And we're seated right on the edge of the water, right off the Southernmost Point. Very beautiful day. Service was great. Our guy catered to our every need, went out of his way to be overly polite, which was common with Key West servers, I noticed, as was the amount of rich, entitled tourists demanding absurdities. If you're rich and entitled and reading this, please chill out, and be nice to your servers. Anyway. Food was good and fun! We started off with the Island Poke Cups (Marinated fresh Tuna, Guacamole, Seaweed Salad in a Ponzu Sauce topped with Sesame Seeds and a Drizzle of Spicy Mayo. Served in Plantain Cups). Probably one of the most fun apps I've had in a while. Amazing tuna and salad inside of the cutest, crispiest little cup you ever did see. Yummy and fun. Then we moved on to the main event, the The Seaside Café Signature Pizza - Lobster Bianca (Lobster, Cream Sauce, Fontina, Garlic Purée, Fresh Parsley). Lots of lobster, just the right amount of cause, a good cheese to go with the seafood, and the parsley actually sets it off nicely, a little herbaciousness. A nice, quaint little pie. Overall, we really enjoyed this quick little lunch. Nice, unique items right on the waterfront. Would recommend.

    Great food, right on the water. Possibly the furthest south you can eat a pizza in the contiguous United States.

    Fantastic venue to watch sunset although obscured by the Sunset Key as it gets low in the sky…read more Service was sketchy. Non English speaker who forgot a simple request for mayo so we could try to choke down our chicken sandwich. Food was uniquely terrible. Chicken sandwich was small for $21 and I swear it was frozen and microwaved prior to bringing out to the table. It was so dry and obviously over microwaved, but we did not say anything we just asked for mayo to try to chock it down, but the mayo never came. This is an overpriced venue that cannot even get bar food right. For the price, food quality, lackluster service, too loud music, and obstructed view, do yourself a favor and go to the Tiki Bar at the Galleon for picture perfect sunsets, followed by dinner on the marina. Spent over 2 weeks here this time and have each June for the past 20. Last year I met my Son and Daughter in law there for drinks but did not eat. Tonight is our last night here and I wanted to do something different with my girlfriend. Should have taken my own advice and stayed at the Galleon. I am in food service so tipped for food I could not each but as a KW regular I will vote with my feet and not return . Below is the sunset view from the Galleon.
