One of the best places i have been! BEAUTIFUL sunset, good band, amazing magic show. The food was great, and the frozen key lime pie was the best i have had, one piece wasnt enough, we had to order two! Will def be returning.

Had an exceptional meal, great band, terrific view, an an awesome magic show! I would definately go back and recommend the bacon wrapped shrimp as well as the yellowtail fish dinner. Can't beat it!

If you want a loud party atmosphere with casual bar food and great sunset this is the place. Just not right for my family celebration tonight.

we stayed in the keys the third week of May 2013. The view of the bay was really cool, the food was pretty good bar food. Def. a big local hotspot. you should stop for a beer, and cool laid back atmosphere.

I enjoy myself everytime I eat here. The service is friendly & knowledgable about the area. There is shade around the bar, but when im on vacation I want to sit in the florida sun and sweat so I sit out on the huge outdoor patio or in the sandy beach patio. Every table has a view of the crystal... More

The Lorelei is an iconinc restaurant in the Keys. It has always been our stopping place for breakfast whether we are staying in Islamorada or just passing through on our way to Key West. It has that Keys feeling and is very laid back. It has one of the best Bloody Mary you will ever taste.

A "Must See" when visiting the Keys! Great place for watching the sunset and listening to live music while relaxing after a great day fishing! The food is adequate but the setting and ambience is outstanding! Drinks are delicious and a special treat is watching Michael Trixx perform his magic! He's very good and appears every other night !

The music is great, the beer is ice cold..the wait staff are super nice (Hi Laura) The sunsets are awesome...take a camera. The food is fresh, well cooked and served. Just a great place to sit and unwind in the typical Keys atmosphere.

We stopped here for drinks and to watch the sunset our last night in the Keys and wished we had discovered it sooner. It was fun and we are still talking about the conch fritters - delicious!! It is all outside seating on the water. You can sit at a bar overlooking the water, or at tables by the waters... More

Great location, friendly staff, good drinks and oh what a sunset. We found Lor-e-lei on our second trip to Islamorada and loved it. It has a typical Keys atmosphere, casual, laid back, island music and no rushing. We enjoyed a great snapper dinner and drinks on a gently gliding picnic table. The atmosphere is wonderful and the place is an... More
