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.

Conch fritters were delicious - might have been a hair overcooked on the outside and a hair undercooked on the inside but great flavor. Dipping sauces were great - we had spicy mayo and key lime mustard. It's an outdoor food truck in the middle of town - great central location. The guy who took our order was so friendly and fun - everything cooked to order!

This traditional Key West style pink and white shack is next to the aquarium and sponge market…read more Before going into the aquarium, grabbed a cold homemade Key Limeaid drink for $4.00, seems Key Lime is the big flavor around these parts. It was a large Pepsi cup (would have liked a business logo stamped cup) and helped to quench my thirst but maybe too sugary of a sweet treat. Walking around Key West it is always a good idea to have fluids with you to avoid heatstroke. As for eats, they specialize in fried conch and chicken fritters with shrimp, clam and fish baskets. Like everywhere else around the Keys, they also offer key lime pie on the stick. No line out front so not really how sure the quality of the food other than from customer reviews with a 4 star rating, but a great spot with cheap fried food and soft drinks.

I always had to ask for a refill on my soda. Would I go back to this place, probably not. I can get a better seafood boil in Miami.

Ocean Key Resort is one of the best resorts in Key West. Hot Tin Roof is the restaurant inside…read moreOcean Key Resort. We only had breakfast, but the breakfast was at average at best. There was nothing wrong with the breakfast or service. It just tasted...average, and low quantity. The impression I get, and I may be wrong, is that Hot Tin Roof breakfasts are for those customers staying at Ocean Key, and most likely are comped or the breakfast is part of the package. I have no clue about lunch or dinners at Hot Tin Roof. I had bacon, eggs, and chopped up potatoes. The bacon and eggs were just fine, I mean how do you screw that up? The potatoes were plain and not very much. Noting the breakfasts of the wife and kid, I felt the same....average at best. It left me for looking for an early lunch on Duval street. I believe they add an 18% "service charge" on the check regardless of size of party.

Location- excellent located on a main walking busy popular street…read more Food- it was okay, excellent service and quick We ordered Sample platter- mainly fries on the bottle, only 4 pieces of fried conch and 2-3 fried conch fritters. The conch was good size, the ratio of the batter to conch is not balance- too much batter and dry. The Sample conch ceviche is was tiny contain in a ketchup dipping sauce container.

This shack came highly recommended from social media so I was excited to try "Key West's best conch…read morefritters". However, this was not our experience. The conch fritters were overcooked and burnt. They were extremely hard and crunchy. We did notice that the cook stepped away for a long time while our conch fritters were in the deep fryer cooking, causing them to be overcooked. However, we were the only customers there, so they could have easily remade a fresh batch that was not overcooked. I would not try this shack again or recommend it to others.

The fries come out made to order and be forewarned they are HOT. They come with ketchup packets but the flavor is so good you don't need anything else. My son ate his quesadilla but as expected, got full (hence why this mother knew not to order any food for herself). I had the last piece of chicken quesadilla with the accompanying guacamole that had a perfect blend of tomato, onion and avocado. My dulce con leche coffee was also pretty good but not the best I've had though I'd recommend if you're in the mood for coffee. Easily a hole in the wall you'd miss if not looking for it and glad we stopped in. $30 for a chicken quesadilla, fries and coffee seems a bit steep but I guess it's to be expected in Key West

White tablecloths enhanced the classy vibe. The breakfast tacos and the warm brie platter were very flavorful but all of us were shocked by the zero personality and dismal attention from the one waiter upstairs at which time there were only four tables of customers. Aggravated, I walked around to find him in the bar room talking to another staff member who was eating to get his attention, and my fault for not speaking to the manager. He was awful and still got a 20% tip and should have gotten nothing but sometimes eateries share their tips with other employees who may be hard workers. Great location and paid good money for tasty food which was overshadowed by the horrible customer service.

My husband got the shellfish combo. They said the lobster was perfectly cooked, and he is currently inhaling the snow crab. Legs, and I can't even see the shrimp on the plate anymore. LOL so apparently he must have liked that... We set on the inside bar where the AC was. There was 3 bartenders for the tiny little bar, not much interaction from any of them.

Also got a side of steamed mussels: wow, they were nice meaty mussels in a delicious wine sauce that was perfect for dipping the two pieces of cheesy toast that come with it. They have a virgin version of most of their cocktails, and i can highly recommend the virgin mango daquiri. Key lime pie for dessert was delicious.
