What a great place for dinner! The food was delicious. I had the skirt steak and it was so good. The steak melted in your mouth. My husband had the shrimp and scalloped diavolo which he thoroughly enjoyed. We needed a cab and a nice...gentleman ordered one for us. If you get a chance treat yourself to this restaurantMore

We lived in KW 2 blocks away. This was our go to. Always fresh. Always great food and service. When it was Michael’s, he had catered so many of our parties flawlessly. We just returned to our island and thought we might revisit. Biggest mistake...ever! Omfg. So dirty. Behind the bar, on the bar. Disgusting! Sharing pics. I have been a NYC concierge many years. Now in Wilmington NC. I approached the mgr. And was so defensive. All I was doing was trying to give him pointers. Please steer clearMore

On Duval but tucked away in a little courtyard. Not at all crowded for a late dinner (8:30 pm) in July. Despite this, as a couple of 2 we were seated right next to a large table (an apparent bachelorette) and had to ask to...be moved due to the noise; they were accommodating. Drinks were good, strong (pictured). We ate appetizers only, calamari with a nice Asian twist and crab cakes, both very good. Overall would recommend.More

We went here for the 1st time this year when in town to check out the brunch and it was great. Our service was wonderful too. Only issue is no one replies to emails or FB messages.

My wife and I had dinner at the Ocean Grill and Bar on 18 April 2023 to celebrate our 48 wedding anniversary! We arrived early and were greeted by Vaness M who was amazing and seated right away. My wife had grouper which was excellent,...I had the seafood risotto which was outstanding. The caramel cheesecake was awesome! Vaness M. Was an excellent server and made this dinner special. Recommend the Ocean Grill and Bar for any meal. Beast food We have had in Key West and the best server. Thank you!More

Service by Philip was great. They hav good food, mostly sandwiches, soups and salads. They could improve on fish choices since they are a seafood place. Drinks are good but no fresh juices. The ambient is beautiful and the outdoor seating is nice. They just...need a couple improvements to be 5 stars.More

I've honestly never done a food review before. In KW for a couple of days of fishing, stumbled on this place and the Shrimp and Grits are one of the best dishes I've ever had. The next day I was perusing other restaurants but that...dish pulled me back in. Yellowfin Tuna and Mahi are also excellent.More

Stopped by for a late breakfast and it was a good option. The western omelet was good, as was the lobster roll. It is in a square off Duval and a bit away from most of the bars, so a nice quiet spot to relax....Service was good and there were nice indoors and outdoors seating options.More

Our group of 13 ate here on both our first and last day in Key West. It was close to our bed and breakfast and while still on Duval St., it is off the popular path. They were able to accommodate 13 people both times...on short notice. The Bloody Mary's are a little bland so order it with spice. I had both the wedge salad with blackened shrimp and the Caesar with chicken and both were so good. Thank you!More
