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!
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!
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!
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!
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.
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.
What an amazing day! First time out exploring Key West and my wife and I are celebrating our 30th Anniversary. We've had a day of experiencing gorgeous views, fabulous drinks, and tantalizing food! We were waiting in line for a photo-op of the most southern tip when a family recommended we try Lobsta pizza just around the corner, and so we did. Of course, we kicked things off with a drink and we thoroughly enjoyed the Coconut Mojito with the candy rock stir stick... man o man that was such a refreshing drink on a warm day. We started off with the Coconut Shrimp for an appetizer, and I'll be hot damned if that Piña Colada dipping sauce wasn't actually the milk & honey I've been reading about flowing out of the Promise Land!! That sauce is to die for!!! That's all I wanted. I was basically done. Coconut battered fried shrimp floating in an ocean of that Piña sauce? That goes together like the waters of the Atlantic meeting the waters of the Gulf- it's just natural. I cannot not recommend that enough!! After that marital bliss in my mouth, we ordered the Seaside Signature Pizza, "Lobster Bianca!" Are you kidding me? This pizza was absolutely unreal! Wood fired pizza with hunks of lobster love lathered in cream sauce and garlic puree? The Little Mermaid in me wanted to belt out and sing Part of Your World from the Mansion rooftop next door. All in all, with the exquisite views, the absurdly beautiful company sitting across from me, and the robust and flavorful meal we just dined on, we couldn't be more thankful for the experience. Supremely superb in every way! Thank you. And always, Enjoy & Happy Eating!
We were walking around in the area and went to look at the mansion when we saw this cute little bar. It had cold drinks and fans, both of which were far too inviting after our long walk in the heat. Ashley was our bartender, and she was one of the best we've ever had! She was so much fun that it felt like drinking with a bunch of friends instead of just mere patrons alongside other patrons at a bar. I wish I could remember exactly what drinks I got but they were all awesome. Even the one with rock candy in it wasn't too sweet at all and I'm very sensitive to overly sweet drinks. For food, we ordered a half/half pizza of magical delight. Half lobster, half mushroom. ALL orgasmic fabulous flavour. Treat yourself and then take yourself on a lovely walk around the property. It's gorgeous here!
What a great sunset experience on our first night in Key West! Sat at the upstairs bar. Was a little nervous at first because there was no bartender present and actually took a while for him to get up to us, but realized it was because he has to go downstairs to run all the food up. He busted his butt the 2 hours we were there. On point! Had a delicious caprese chicken sandwich with truffle fries and a few drinks. Bonus: they give everyone a free shot at sunset - bartenders choice (ours was grapefruit drop - delicious!). Definitely recommend for a quieter afternoon/early evening spot. Great experience!

The lobster pizza was nothing short of amazing . If you enjoy the buttery flavor of lobster baked into a flavorful pizza crystal with garlic and luscious cheese, then you're in for a treat. Sitting beside the Atlantic Ocean delivering a nice breeze to cool you off on a warm summer day. One pizza can serve two with 6 nice slices of pizza. read more
A very nice spot with comfortable outdoor dining. Went there for a quick lunch with friends and the four of us split the lobster pizza. It was a perfect snack for 4 people. Nice thin crust and fresh lobster meat. It was very tasty. The cocktails were well made and the service was excellent. Give it a try! read more
Food was good, but the service from the one worker was nonexistent. The Lobster Pizza was highly praised on social media. While the Lobster Bianca ($32) was good, like a toned down, more saltier version of pizza, and the Island Poke Cups ($17) unique in its plantain cups, nothing was phenomenal for Seaside to be a must-go. I was most impressed by the setting and opportunity to sit seaside. read more
I absolutely loved this spot, which is right by the water and next door to the southernmost point area. They are known for their lobster pizza, which is exactly what I was going there for. Since it was just my boyfriend and I and we have different tastes, we asked if we could create a split pizza with our preferred toppings, which they allowed. We started with a conch fritter appetizer, and our pizza was part lobster and part pepperoni with hot honey. Evening tasted so fresh, light, and delicious! I highly recommend checking this place out next time you're in Key West! read more

OMG! The Lobster Biscuit was amazing. The biscuit tasted like a donut fried to perfection. A healthy portion of fresh lobster, totally addicting. The Caprese Prosciutto sandwich was also delicious! Wash it all down with a Mojito and have a perfect lunch along the crashing waves. To get a full five stars, just replace the well work patio furniture and add some tropical plants to increase the beach side vibe. read more
Lobster pizza was heavily anticipated on my key west list, and it did not disappoint!! It was 10/10 delicious!!!! We got the half and half due to the recommendation of bartenders across the street. It was half duval street corn. My husband liked it, but still getting charged $32 for the lobster pizza when we only got half felt weird. I would go back over and over and hand over all my money for that lobster pizza though. Our table was excellent and right on the water. Our server started out nice, she brought waters, took our drink and food order and then we never saw her again. Thankfully we didn't need anything, but it was annoying. I had to flag down other people for a box and to get our check. I still found this one of my favorites in key west. read more

food was phenomenal! right by the water and the service was great with food and drinks coming quickly. I got the caprese sandwich's with truffle fries, so SO good! the vibes were also so fun with music and waves!! loved it! Roosters & hens were everywhere too, so cool!! read more
Yum Yum Yum! We were on our way to the Southern Most Point for a photo and there was a super long line. We decided to go get a snack instead of waiting in the hot sun. After a little research, we decided on the Seaside Case. Can't go wrong with a snack by the ocean right? Definitely one of the best decisions we made all day! We sat right by the water and it was so nice with the views and the cool breeze coming off the water. We all ordered drinks and they were just what we needed. Tasty and refreshing! They have some great mojito options along with frozen drinks and such. Everyone recommended the lobster biscuits, so that is what we went with. They are a little on the pricey side, but worth every delicious bite. Think lobster roll, but on a southern-style biscuit. They come with hot honey and jalapenos, but you can get them without. I'm a wuss when it comes to heat, so I'd recommend keeping the hot honey but nixing the jalapenos. We even had a run in with one of the locals while we were there. He was hanging out on the table next to us and even posed for some pictures ;) read more

Food was served quickly & fresh and drinks were amazing! Would highly recommend.... read more
I liked it so much that we came here twice during our one week stay. I loved the lobster pizza it was fantastic fresh delicious. I also had the key lime frozen margarita it was also delicious and a fun drink. Service is attentive, and very fast. At night time the server brings out fun table lamps in shapes of palm trees and flamingos and you can pick which one you want on the table. This is also a good spot to see the sunset from the other end of Duval street. read more
Casual cafe close to the water famous for their lobster pizzas--did not disappoint. Food: 4.5 Service: 3.5 Atmosphere: 4 Cost to worth it rating: 3 (lobster pizza $29 but cheese $17 ) Opentableable: no Return worthiness: yes Eve award: best lobster pizza Highlights: - Lobster pizza: I was afraid it was just a gimmick, but it was legitimately delicious. Garlicy cheesy Alfredo sauce as a base with lobster meat pieces on top. 5 stars - Prosciutto caprese sandwich: thin pizza crust with fresh mozzarella, tomato, prosciutto, with pesto and balsamic. My hub says ratios were perfect and awards it the best meal of the trip! 5 stars - Cheese pizza: my picky son said it was really good. His rating is 4.67 stars - Strawberry lemongrass mojito: liked this flavor combo and loved the swizzle sugar stick you could use to control your pen level of preferred sweetness. 4.5 stars - Can do half pizzas: I only know this cause I it on other Yelp pics: thank you, Yelpers! Lowlights - Said the tables by the water were too hot and umbrellas not being used, but then sat people there after us. I thought they were on the beach sand, but seating goes to the edge of a cement platform. Other seating is bit farher away so don't get the waterside experience. Enjoyed this and would come back for more lobster pizza and hopefully have a seat closer to the water. read more
Had the best experience here! The view was beautiful, the lobster pizza was delicious, and the rum punch was to die for. The shaded patio seating allowed for a nice meal right next to the water without the threat of being burned by the sun. My favorite dining experience in Key West for sure! read more

The lobster pizza is a MUST! Great seaside atmosphere - one of the few we found in Key West - decent cocktails, and quick service. The truffle fries and house aioli were also very good. Bathroom access was a bit unusual, but part of the memorable experience. read more
Such a beautiful scenery. Very friendly staff. Right on the water. We had the poke salad to start. Very very fresh and delicious. I ordered a piña colada. With the extra shot. They bring the shot in a tube. It looks cool but it was not what I was expecting. It was just piña mixer ice and rum. I've never been to key west I thought they were going to do it up the real way. That's okay tho, I still drank most of it. Then we got the lobster pizza. Thin and crispy. Phenomenal. Lots of lobster. Really different. Very garlicky and flavorful. There is a beach right next door your can chill at. Bring your beach chairs. There is another restaurant you can rent chairs from but the guy had a waiting list. Thankfully I had chairs in the car. There is a parking lot right up the block. read more

Loved the pizza. Very fresh with good crust. Truffle fries were also yummy. Waitstaff were friendly. We were seated immediately with an ocean view. Will be back! The drinks were only okay though. read more
ONE WORD - PHENOMENAL. If there's one spot you should visit for food on Key West it is here. We honestly weren't expecting much because you know how places with "worlds best" signs on it are.. not really that great/overhyped. But this really might just be world's best. The Honey Biscuit Lobster Whatever they are called... lord have mercy... they could take ALL MY MONEY!! The combo and smoothness of it paired perfectly with garlic aioli fries!!! The street corn pizza was so perfectly balanced!! The perfect amount of each toppings on EVERY. BITE. My husband said that he was excited for the pizza and wasn't his first choice but it ended up eating 90% because it was THAT GOOD. & can we talk about the garlic aioli fries??!?! Amazing. That's it. SO GOOD. Overall finger licking good food across the board. They didn't even skimp on the drinks like most of these places out here! The view is beautiful right on the water, and the service was very nice!! This place we will definitely come back too! read more
Great for kids! Outdoor seating right on the ocean with the sand in your feet. Waitstaff was super friendly. Chickens roam around you. Food was excellent! This is super close to the butterfly conservatory and the southern most tip. Great spot to pop in for a quick snack or full meal. read more

We skipped the line for pics with the southern most marker and opted to go next door instead for some southern charm and mojitos at the Mansion. Of all the mojitos I've tried in Key West over 3 days, this was my favorite-coconut mojito is sweet, minty and absolutely delicious! For not so sweet, try the strawberry lemongrass which is packed with chunky bits of strswberries as well as fresh mulled mint. Both come with a rock candy stir stick to augment the sweetness if needed (not needed-they were perfect as prepared.) We crunched them afterward just for fun! Staff super nice. Great service! read more

Back again another year later - had the conch fritters and truffle fries again, this time adding on the coconut shrimp and key lime pie. We headed over after a long day on the ferry visiting Dry Tortugas (and after a couple of cocktails at the Rum Bar) so we were tired and starving. Went and ordered at the bar and again had lovely service while waiting for our food. Everything was fresh and delicious- this will always be a stop for us when we visit read more
