   Superb restaurant. Exciting menu selections. Wonderfully paired 4 course meal. Very nice wine selections. Service was top notch. Rob is professional, attentive and just a great person. Our evening was the best experience. Dinner here every night would never get old. Thank you Little Pearl.

   Our waiter Robert was phenomenal, as was the rest of the staff. The food was inventive both in flavor and presentation. From beginning to end, our meal was a delectable journey filled with such unique delights, we wanted the meal to never end. I am already looking forward to our next visit here, wondering with excitement what the chef will create next.

   Amazing…..from the ambiance, the knowledgeable and engaging wait staff, to the superb food! Truly a gastronomic experience. The chef obviously understands how to marry flavor, texture, and presentation to creative splendor for the palate. The wine list was outstanding. Not extensive but rather carefully curated. The experience was so pleasurable that we were lucky enough to secure a reservation for the following evening.

   Put Little Pearl on your “don’t miss” list when in Key West. This little place is special. Reservations should be made at least a few weeks in advance. Dress in your best casual and consider this the meal you will tell your friends about.

    The menu is carefully curated with something for everyone. The most impressive thing was that our table consisted of two very senior citizens and two very discriminating(read: picky) fifteen year olds. The latter practically licked their plates! Of particular note were the gazpacho, the shrimp taco, the Wagyu beef and the best of all: the yellowtail snapper with an amazing ginger sauce. The tiramisu finish was the "cherry on top". Simply outstanding. Can't wait for the next time!

    Walked by little pearl on our way to Sunday mass. Checked it out line and made our reservation for 3/6/23. Mentioned where we were going to various key west residents. They all claimed little pearl was their favorite restaurant. We went last night and were thrilled. It is now our favorite key west restaurant. Food was sublime; excellent wine list. Patrick, our server, was the best. We will definitely recommend little pearl and come back next time we are in key west!

    Wonderful event— really top notch. The food was an amazing blend of flavors that elevated what you know and love about Florida’s shrimp, grouper, oysters with a spicy, Asian flair. Would go back tomorrow!

    After years of experience trying the many great restaurants in Key West, the hot wife and I had our first meal at Little Pearl last night. It was excellent, but a bit loud at times. We had the 7pm seating, got a cozy table by the wall, and loved every interaction with the wait staff who were all smart, attentive, fun and on their game at all times. The 4 course set menu options were all outstanding, but be prepared for some heat with a few dishes like the shrimp waffles, Red Snapper with grits, and salmon carpaccio. We loved it, but it might catch less adventurous taste buds by surprise. The wine list is is limited but well chosen. Her desert was ok but not up to the rest of the meal, while I was very happy with the cheese option and an excellent glass of port to go with it. Little Pearl is now officially on our annual must dining list. Enjoy!

    Quite a superb evening. But we had a birthday girl with us and I thought she might have received something, did not and did not have to be something big. Just a thought. It’s always a memorable place to eat when we dine every year this same week.

    What a fun amazing experience. The food was so good, it was a challenge not to lick the plate. They are not afraid to add a bit of heat. Ceviche was made in a way that we’d never had and we wish we’d asked for deets. Love the bao, too. And such a cozy, casual but upscale vibe. Color us thrilled!

    Although we anticipated a wonderful dinner with great variety of cuisines, we were rather disappointed. There was a variety of dishes to choose from. It was difficult to enjoy each serving since the service was rushed in order to seat the next group. We tasted each serving but never lingered over a course. Perhaps our experience would have been better if there had been more time to savor the taste and less than two hours for four courses is a rushed and hurried dinner. Many of the courses were wonderful but the need to move on to the next course was less than stellar. A bit too pricey for an enjoyable dining experience.

    We have been to Little Peale 10 times in the last three years. Every time the food is amazing! So many perfectly put-together flavors. Your taste buds are in heaven. Then the service is just as great. If you make a reservation, with all the great places to eat in Key West, this one is always #1 for us.

    We met a local couple and all 4 of us ate dinner here on Friday night. It was a tasting menu and most of the courses were really good. However we were told in the first 15 minutes that we had to order soon because there was a 9:00pm seating and we needed to be finished by that time. And at the end of our dinner- we hadn’t finished our 2nd bottle of wine for the table, the waiter grabbed it out of the chiller to throw away. We asked if we could take it with us and the waiter rolled his eyes, stuck his thumb in the opening of the wine bottle corked it for us and rudely put it on the table. Who wants to drink this wine now? We spent $550 for 4 of us without the tip. For the money we felt portions were small, attitudes were ridiculous and overall it wasn’t anything too special.

    Pre-fixe menu a good concept. But, simple is always best. Too much going on in every course so much so that the highlight of each course was lost.
