    I have posted several reviews and all but one have been fabulous on everything. One review I was a little negative on the lobster ravioli. Well Thank You Dorada, they took that comment to heart and reworded the lobster ravioli. They added more lobster, more ravioli and a super sauce. I tried it last evening and it was wonderful. Big pieces of lobster and a big improvement. Now that’s a good restaurant that’s follows up on the reviews and makes improvements. Looking forward to our next meal there.

    We got engaged on the beach here and then did the "Toes in the sand" experience, dining on the beach. The beach is absolutely beautiful. The food, service and everything else, VERY underwhelming. A bit disappointed by this one

    The food was wonderful, but the ambience was even better. Also, I’ve never had a restaurant look at my open table account and recommend dishes to me because I’m pescatarian - that attention to details was majorly impressive!

    Great last night in Key West dinner. Ambiance by the beach can't be beat. The food and service were excellent. The group all agreed it was our best meal from start to finish in Key West.

    We celebrated our engagement there and had a great meal and great drinks and sat facing the beach. It was super romantic and perfect. It started to storm but the staff was amazing and helped us get somewhere dry and made sure we were taken care of. Our waiter Nesse was very kind and accommodating and did a great job making sure we didn’t get caught in the storm!
