About the restaurant
Key West seafood restaurant in the heart of old town on Petronia. The menu is kept small so that everything is nice and fresh for you. Yellowtail snapper, fish of the day, Key West pink shrimp, and seafood medley highlight the menu.
Deviled Eggs topped with Scallops, Shrimp Mango Toast and Crispy Pork Belly Croustinis tantalize the pallet. Beef stroganoff made with certified black angus beef is a favorite.

Relaxing, unpretentious, and romantic.
Seating is very limited. We offer a 6 pm and an 8 pm seating.
24 Hour Cancellation window.
For the consideration of our guests, we do not accept parties over the size of six (6), without the permission for the owners.

The food and service were both excellent. Chris did an excellent job explaining the menu and making sure we were well taken care of. The lavender cheese cake is amazing.

About the restaurant
An "only in Key West" restaurant, The Flaming Buoy Filet Co. is one part retro supper club, one part sassy corner bistro, and one part highly personal whim. Fred Isch, grew up in every geographic segment of the country with a mother who loved cooking and collecting recipes. His husband, Scot Forste, grew up on the farm where his mother, bored of city life, spontaneously relocated to get back to the land, breed horses, and grow fresh, healthy food. Every recipe on the Flaming Buoy menu is an interpretation of something Fred or Scot ate at their respective family tables. Local additions, like seafood, tropical fruits, and Cuban flavors reinterpret the nostalgia, and the result grabbed the attention of the New York Times in 2011.

Great service (thanks Dean!) excellent menu options, vast wine selection, and the Star Wars themed decor is cute. Someone a dimly lit romantic type of spot, but great for friends get together too! Lobster Mac, and bacon wrapped scallops were my top faves.

This was the best food we had the entire trip! We ordered and tried 3/4 of the menu. It was all phenomenal! The service was incredible. We had two amazing servers Ricardo for lunch and then we went back for dinner the next day and we had Luis for dinner!! This is a must try 5 star food experience. :)

About the restaurant
A slice of Italy in the Florida Keys! This approachable and genuine pizzeria/trattoria serves authentic Italian dishes in a warm and memorable atmosphere. Locals, families, couples, and groups flock to Italian Food Company for the food, service and attention to detail. Guests dine on imported, hand painted lava tables made by local artisans from the foothills of Mt. Etna, while overlooking our wine and beer garden. Hand painted murals depicting scenes from Sicily and the bay of Naples set the tone. Insta perfect picture spots come alive with a vintage Fiat 500 and the Italian Food Company Vino Van. If you have a love for all things Italy, you will come to adore this home away from home. Pizza Lovers beware - the Pizza is authentic Neapolitan, the real deal without the passport.

Key West
About the restaurant
Chef Marek is inspired by the pizzerias of New York, and he is bringing that inspiration to you to enjoy in the heart of the local scene in Key West, the White Street District. We also have a selection of delicious entrees to enjoy. So please join us for a special evening of relaxation with cold beer, fine wine, and friends old and new enjoying great pizza, scrumptious entrees, and salads. A casual experience with gourmet food in a century old house that some say may have a ghost or two. Please make a reservation as space is limited and we want everyone to enjoy Key West's latest addition to the dining scene. Rock n roll fans step to the front with your munchies.
Our pork chop is a must try.

About the restaurant
Simple. Good. Food.

From humble beginnings over 20 years ago, Seven Fish has earned its place as a Key West Classic.

Serving the freshest local fish in a casual, contemporary bistro setting, it is the perfect finish to your Key West day.

Unpretentious dishes, with a commitment to only the finest ingredients, and made from scratch every day, it is the meal you don’t want to end.

Try our house specialty, Thai Curry Snapper, or any of our fresh fish dishes, or maybe the Banana Chicken or even the locals’ favorite, 7 Fish Meatloaf. There is something for everyone, lovingly prepared to exceed your expectations, including our specialty drinks and inspiring wine menu. Be sure to save room for one of our home made, classic desserts.

You will love our beautiful new building, enjoy our warm, friendly staff and come back again and again for the remarkable food.
