My husband, children (18 & 10), and I had dinner at Caroline's tonight. The portions were huge and the prices were very reasonable. Three of us chose salads- the Macon Bacon and the Sourhwestern Chicken salad were amazing! Our server Allison did an amazing job! She had excellent knowledge of the menu, was very friendly, and made sure our drinks... More

Went with the family for an early dinner and the food was fantastic. Had Macon & Bacon Salad, blackened Chicken Pasta, blackened Chicken Sandwich & the Southwest Salad, they were all sooo yummy! Our server Allison was great! She was very attentive & helpful! Will go again.

My husband and I had heard about Caroline's from a friend. We had the conch fritters for an appetizer, which were a bit overdone in my opinion, but still tasted good. I still prefer the conch fritters and dipping sauce from the Conch Republic. However the food here was great! I had the blackened chicken pasta, and my husband had... More

Well, for Duval Street this was actually pretty good. We just wanted to sit down and have some lunch, so we weren't expecting a whole lot. The food was good; I had a shrimp po'boy. My husband's Bloody Mary was really good. I'd eat there again.

Perfectly located on the main drag Duval Street one would expect this restaurant to be overpriced and underwhelming in quality. Neither could be farther from the truth. I ate here twice during an 8 day stay in Key West April 2013. First time was dinner and I had the dolphin fingers for an appetizer - so fresh and yummy! Then... More

We went here on a tip from a local. It was good burgers and meals. Good reasonable prices. Nice big servings. My wife's salad was huge. Mahi sandwich was a little thin, but 3 out of 4 meals were terrific. Service was excellent. Friendly staff. We will be back

We visit Key West every year and since discovering Caroline's several years ago, this is a "must" on our restaurant list while visiting. We are never disappointed. The food is always fantastic...the location is perfect for sitting on Duval and people watching and the wait staff go above and beyond to make your visit enjoyable. Our waiter, Mikey, was perfect....
