    Fish tacos
    Nicky S.

    Stopped in for some lunch plus drinks with bonus live music. The music was really great and performed by Tim Hollohan. He played a variety of songs which was nice. Our waitress was fast and friendly despite being busy. I had a virgin mojito which was very refreshing. It came with a stick of sugar cane which I thought was unique. I ordered the lunch special of fish tacos with yellow rice which were flavorful. The spices were delicious without being overwhelming.

    A fun night at Willy T's, good live music, priced right beers and a very cool and never dull atmosphere. Read some of the dollar bills plastered everywhere. Fun place

    Willie T's had a great social atmosphere and we kept being told it was the place to 'meet friends.'.... I'll let yall experience your own adventure here, but I recommend the strong drinks and fairly reasonable prices!

    We came here during fantasy fest and the DJ they had was on fire! To the point people would stop and dance in the street. I had a great time here and lots of great memories! They had a lot of tables and chairs too.

    This is the first place we ate in Key West. My hubs doesn't do heat well so I was looking for an indoor restaurant but not high end. This place has a couple red patio woth large fans that helped a lot as many places to eat are open air and patios. Service was great. We had a very pregnant, pleasant gal. Live music was nice to listen to also. We enjoyed a few Surfsides while munching on Buffalo Hot Wings, massive size Caprese Salad, and a full order of Peel n Eat Shrimp. All was very good, and ended up being too much food. We packed the leftovers for later.

    Great place along the main drag of Key West. They have a bar area and a restaurant area. There was live music which was very good and there are literally dollar bills over every single square inch of this place. The music talent was awesome and really played a variety of different kinds of songs to get people singing along. The food and drinks were good. Margaritas were good and 2/$15 (Friday special). They have specials for food and beverages. The conch fritters were great and so were the grouper bites. They also have very good sweet potato fries. The hostess was very nice and our server was amazing! She was so nice, friendly, and attentive (thanks Stephanie). We didn't wait long for our food and she continually checked in on us throughout our visit. Great place to swing in to listen to great live music or have a good meal.

    Yummmm!! Nachos are HUGE and delicious! Our server was great, food came out fast and tasted amazing. Coconut shrimp was some of the best I've had. I recommend sitting close to the street so you can people watch

    REAL CASH HERE...Always great local classic rock and roll playing outside this restaurant - bar. The restaurant is the whole left side and bar consists of a huge U-shaped wooden bar top with several side tables in front of the band stage. Most people come the this bar for the bands as I do but the real eye candy is the money stapled to every open space on the walls and ceiling. The bathrooms needed attention but it is an old venue.

    We were walking past this place and we heard this guy singing "What I Got" by Sublime. We stopped, started singing along and headed in. I we already ate, so I can't comment on the food. But the party vibe, great music and friendly people were worth the stop.

    Love , love the ambiance! Seeing all the money on the wall was such a cool touch. The food is classic beach-style fare--good and satisfying. The music and drinks were amazing, and the bartenders were extremely friendly, which made the experience even better.

    We came here 3 days in a row as they are on Duvall, have outside seating and allow dogs. Service seems to begrudgingly be here but great location, dog friendly and great live music. Nachos are wonderful and highly recommend the island time pizza and add jalapeños. Enjoyed sitting on the street watching people and soaking in the sun.

    Captain Tony's Saloon - Pirate punch

    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.

    We were with friends from CO who were visiting Key West for the first time. After walking around…read moreMallory Square and down Duval Street, we decided to have a drink at Captain Tony's before going out to a different restaurant for dinner. 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 have a sweet tooth, a tremendous sweet tooth indeed, For…read moreice cream and desserts are the things that I need. 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. They are masters of dessert, of flavor and flair-- A deliciously mischievous treasure tucked away there.

    We went to Better Than Sex after eating a full meal at Duffy's right in front, so there wasn't much…read moreroom left in us. But oh man was it amazing. An extremely unique ambience and decoration. But it's not too much or too little. The seating is comfortable and private. Our server was very nice, he checked in at all the right times and was sweet. We only ordered one dessert and it got there promptly. Everything on the menu looked excellent and delicious. 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.
