peter_krynicki Posted August 13, 2010 #3 Share Posted August 13, 2010 My new favorite for breakfast, lunch or dinner is Columbian Grace on Petronia, just past Blue Heaven. So that'd be it. Pjk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKGirl Posted August 13, 2010 #4 Share Posted August 13, 2010 For Brunch on the weekend: Azur. I love this place and they have key lime pie stuffed french toast! They also have a good weekday lunch. Blackfin also has a good lunch, and is on the 900 block of Duval. http://www.FloridaKeysGirl.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter_krynicki Posted August 13, 2010 #7 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Blackfin is noted more for their burgers but they serve a great grilled fish sandwich accompanied by some of the best fries on the island. Pjk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC Cruiser Posted August 14, 2010 #11 Share Posted August 14, 2010 When we stayed in Key West last May for a few days we had lunch at Alonzo's and then went back another day for happy hour. It has a nice view along the water and great food. Their happy hour menu is an incredible value, but it might start too close to your ship's departure.

SAD Posted August 14, 2010 #13 Share Posted August 14, 2010 My vote is for BO's Fishwagon as it is good and is a true Key West experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvery Seas Cruiser Posted August 15, 2010 #14 Share Posted August 15, 2010 The place I prefer above all others for lunch in Key West is the restaurant out on Sunset Key. The view is so fabulous. Just a few months ago they innaugurated their new restaurant. The original one was very nice, but the new one is even ncier if that can be possible. To get there, you have to go out on the Westin boat which is free. You make reservations with the concierge of the Westin. The concierge desk is just inside the Westin gift shop. The boat ride takes about ten miniutes and is a treat also because you go right out past the cruise ships. You can get some interesting photo ops of the ships at dock as you go by. We have seen dolphins playing in the water on some of the boat trips to and from Sunset Key. Another place we have had good lunches is Louie's Backyard. The view there is amazing too. This place is high end. I have seen people come, be seated, read the menu and get up and leave. I advise reading the menu that is posted on the front porch before you go in.

SAD Posted August 15, 2010 #16 Share Posted August 15, 2010 My timeshare is right next to Louis Backyard and I can agree that the view is spectacular. The prices there are pretty steep but the food is really good. We don't eat there often but we do sit at the bar for drinks quite often. The have a new area up stairs that have tapas but I am not sure of the prices there. It is at least worth the walk down for a drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliaschief Posted August 25, 2010 Author #21 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Some members of our Roll Call would like to know where is the best key lime pie, conch fritters and stone crab in Key West? Again, thanks for all the previous suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacey779 Posted August 27, 2010 #22 Share Posted August 27, 2010 If I could only go to one place it would be El Siboney on Catherine Street. They serve great Cuban food at very reasonable prices. It's a bit of a walk from Mallory Square but I think it's worth it. Check it out: http://www.elsiboneyrestaurant.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, thanks for all the previous suggestions. Not sure about seafood, but my recommendation for key lime pie would be the Blond Giraffe. We also tried Kermit's and Blue Heaven, but both DH and I agreed that the Blond Giraffe was our favorite. You might want to check out the thread dedicated to key lime pie for other suggestions (I think it's a sticky posted at the top of this Key West board).
