   Pretty much perfect! I read some reviews that were less than 4 and disagree with each of their observations. Our server, Dan, I believe, was attentive, friendly, helpful and considerate. The food was excellent! The tasting was well constructed and flowed perfectly. Dan was there every time without that, where’s my server, look we’ve all done. Dan even helped us park (Don’t Drive there, lol.) 5/5 stars. We will be back.

   We were very excited for our tasting menu at Little Pearl. When we arrived we asked to try some wine before ordering a bottle and I noticed that it was bad. When I told our server he told me I was wrong. I then asked for a taste of another white wine that we generally like and the server told me "I was going backward" - I had to say we enjoy that type and he had the nerve to say "as long as I'm not drinking it!" - I couldn't believe it. If he feels so strongly maybe they should take it off the menu. All of our food outside of the octopus was good. When my husband (who never complains) told the server that the octopus was extremely salty she said well no one else has said anything. How about "I'm sorry sir, or I apologize that you didn't enjoy that! suffice to say, we won't be back due the service.

   Outstanding as always. Third time dining at the Little Pearl. Anytime we visit Key West, we make sure to get reservations.

   I have had culinary experiences in many places around the world. I can honestly say that little pearl revivals them all. The chefs innovative menus are an absolute delight. The service is impeccable, funny and incredibly well informed. My favorite restaurant ANYWHERE is in residential area sitting in a corner in key west Florida.

   Tasting was average and not particularly well curated. Noise level was unbearable often reaching over 90db!

   Great quiet neighborhood spot. Chefs tasting menu. Everything was fresh and great creative flavors. Had a poached octopus that was one of the best I’ve ever had.

    Such a cool neighborhood gem. Off the beaten path and so cozy. The menu items are unique and so perfectly curated. The servers are impressive in knowledge and professionalism. The food is outstanding. Bravo to the chef! I highly recommend this place when visiting Key West!
