KEY WEST RESTAURANTS
The highlight of any day is always a good meal, and Key West has no shortage of restaurants. There are almost as many restaurants as there are Realtors. Amongst these (restaurants and Realtors) you will find plenty of tourist traps that are looking to grab your money, feed you tripe, and send you on your way. But rest easy, because we have chosen our absolute favorite Key West fine dining establishments. If you see a place you like, you can also reserve a table by following the link on the page.
THE GRAND CAFE
314 DUVAL STREET • 305 294 4740
This is our favorite Key West restaurant as it is such a well rounded experience. The location is brilliant, with a birds eye view of Duval Street and the food is spot-on. From the bar come an array martinis, mojitos, and other specialty drinks, and the wine list is a Wine Spectator award winner. Many late nights have also been had enjoying a drink on the wraparound porch which serves as a local hangout.
THE PISCES
1007 SIMONTON STREET • 305 294 7100
A slice of pure class on the island here. Sit back in the super-comfortable high-back italian chairs, surrounded by a fine collection of original works by Andy Warhol. As Marlyn, Kofka, and Jagger et al look on dig in to some of the most exquisite food you will ever taste. The foie gras is stuff of legend and the filet is a definite favorite. the experience is rounded of with a full bar and an expansive wine list.
NINE ONE FIVE
915 DUVAL STREET • 305 296 0669
This is our favorite tapas restaurant on the island. Also a wine bar, with over 20 wines by the glass, Nine One Five has a nice mix of tourists and locals living it up on the porch, in the garden and at the bar with all round nice bloke Joe. Looking to the menu, the pork kabobs and rosemary chicken are our favorites.
ANTONIA'S
615 DUVAL STREET • 305 294 6565
After more than 25 years in Key West, anyone would be tired. But Antonia's has defied that logic and still remains a fresh option for Italian food on Duval Street. The main dining room is large but the feeling at each table is intimate, and the service is super-efficient without being totally over the top. As you would expect the wine list has the Wine Spectator Award and the food is outstanding.
COMMODORE
700 FRONT STREET • 305 294 9191
Overlooking the harbor in the Seaport, we are really loving the feel of this waterfront restaurant. The views from the dining rooms are incredible, as are the steaks and lobster. Really enjoying the lobster cocktail, the light breezes that come in through the open 360 french windows. Tell them CoolKeyWest.com sent you.
