If you're in Islamorada, The Lor-E-Lei is THE place to be at sunset. Great open air setting, with either steel drum or reggae bands most every night. The sunset views are great, if you get lucky and don't get too many clouds. Driving down Rte 1, just look for the huge mermaid - can't miss it. more

We found Lor-e-leis had a great atmosphere , food just ok and the cocktails terrible. everybodies cocktail in our group tasted more or less the same even though we had all ordered different. So keep away from cocktails - enjoy the beer, atmosphere and the sunset. We used to come here years ago and it was fantastic but it seems... more

If you are looking for a place to have some great food and good music, Lorelei fits the bill. Sit over by the bar and Hank will take real good care of you. more

We went Lorelei's yesterday to see a band (Marlin too). Chris Miller sang some Jerry Jeff Walker songs that were awesome. The place is laid out very well, there are lots of seating, most with a great view for the sunset. We had the coconut shimp that was recommended by our sever, and they very good. more

The atmosphere was incredible and the food was mediocre. I read a review and came away from that review thinking they had a large seafood selection. I was wrong. The food selection is more like bar food. All of that said, we ate on a beach and listened to live music while we ate. I would suggest that you come... more

We were staying at the Islander which is just across the highway. We heard the sound of a guitar player/singer in the distance and realized it was coming from the Lor-e-lei. At dinner time we decided to check it out since we could walk over from our hotel. The first thing we liked was the perfect sunset view on the... more

I had 2 meals here on my recent trip to the keys. The best part of Lorelei is the view. The bar and seating is right on the water and the views are great. Lunch was good. The fish sandwich was a good one. I did not like the breakfast that much. The sausage gravy was not very good. If... more

We stopped at the Lor-e-lei after spending the day driving up from Key West. I had heard of the place but had never stopped in so we decided to give it a try. We sat at the bar and we were immediately waited on by an extremely friendly bartender. She promptly took our orders and we sat and enjoyed the... more

I have eaten here often and it is very consistent. The food is very good.(The fish sandwich is wonderful.) It is usually crowded and busy. The view is wonderful and the atmosphere-relaxing. One problem-the help always,and I mean always,looks unhappy and stressed. They give the eye to each other and not in a friendly manner . They talk about each... more
