Everything was very good. It’s a welcome change of pace from Duval St music bars where everything is mediocre ad too loud to think. The German=inspired dishes were pretty good, the “grouper risotto” was excellent. The martinis were also excellent and the blue cheese stuffed olives were superb.

Apps and entrees were tasty and portions were good. Key lime Creme Brulee was underbaked and watery unfortunately, and the explanation was that it hadn't set yet. Not sure why serve it then. Otherwise, nice dinner.

Martin's was delicious. I had not been in years (I try to stay off Duval) and I took my father there for dinner. Lee was our server. His attention to detail was impressive, we were very happy with him. The food was excellent! We had a martini and a glass of wine and both very good as well. Overall a wonderful experience, will be coming back more often.

We choose to come to Martin's every time we come to Key West. The food is excellent, the ambiance perfect (we sit on the back patio where it is quiet and lovely), and the service superb. Last night we had the tuna tataki as a starter and the only word for it was YUM! Then my friend had lamb osso bucco and I had weiner schnitzel. Both of our dishes were delicious and the portions were huge! No room left for dessert. We started with signature cocktails which were perfectly mixed. We really enjoy Martins and cannot recommend it strongly enough.

We thoroughly enjoyed the service and our meal at Martin’s, despite the rather boisterous atmosphere this particular evening. Our server was obviously quite knowledgeable and helpful with making decisions about what to eat as well as which wines paired best with our choices. The osso bucco was quite tasty but honestly was way more food than one person could possibly eat. The apple strudel dessert is legendary. And I always enjoy the Key West Sunset specialty cocktail. The only noticeable absence from the menu was the escargot. Nevertheless, an outstanding dining experience and one that I look forward to repeating the next time that I’m in Key West.

We haven’t been to Martins in a couple of years, and one of my work colleagues recommended it. We are always happy to find a restaurant which is dog-friendly so we reserved an outdoor table. The drinks were perfect and the service was excellent. Appetizers were the pate board (excellent except for the bread which was too soft to stand up to the pate) and the tuna tataki (good, but only 3 small pieces). Both of us had the snapper imperial, and we were sorely disappointed in the crab cakes. The meat was mushy and shredded with no discernible “lump” pieces that would be found in really good crab cakes. So we scraped the crab cakes off the snapper. The snapper with the bearnaise was delicious. Interestingly, from my standpoint the champagne sauerkraut was the standout for the entire meal! Not too sour, full of champagne flavor. It would go very well with one of the schnitzel entrees, I think. The other vegetable was broccoli and though it was good, the few pieces we received were not worth the $7 charge. We skipped dessert. To the restaurant’s credit, they removed the charge for the pate appetizer because of the problem with the crab cakes.

The crab cakes were very fishy. They looked great but soooo fishy. I had before checked with the waiter about the seafood freshness so I was very disappointed and the prices were not inexpensve so I expected more. I did not realize that it wasgerman influenced. My husband loved his food the veal cutlet. My martini was ok not real cold. Again I expected more since this was their speciality.The grouper was ok notvery flavorable . They did give us a dessert for our anniversary which was nice. everyone acknowledged our anniversry. Our waiter was very good and removed the fishy crab cakes and no charge without asking. My husband's scotch was excellent. I enoyed the window view. In all It was still a very enjoyable evening.
