“ Don’t know why this place is not rated higher. It is excellent. The seating is very comfortable, quiet even outside. The food is cooked to perfection and presentation is fantastic. You know that they take pride in their place! I got the snapper, which was excellent, highly recommended. My husband got the burger, wanted something other than seafood! And it was very good! We also had the smoked salmon, delicious! ”
“ It's like walking into someone's home. Cozy feeling. The food presentation was fantastic, as was the food. Most tender scallops I've ever had! The cream brulee was a great finish ”
“ One word... Superb! Lots of outdoor seating on Duval. The best conch fritters I have ever had. Every bite had loads of conch. The Snapper dinner with shrimp sauce was divine. ”
“ Built into an old house overlooking the heart of Duval Street, and I was frankly somewhat tepid when I made the reservation as the reviews were good but not great. Having been there now, I can tell you the food and service are ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! Great people-watching sitting slightly elevated on the outdoor terrace, delightful atmosphere with very cool lighting. The service was prompt and impeccable. The food was awesome. Conch fritters were the best we had in Key West - and we tried them pretty much everywhere! The steak and seafood were perfectly prepared. Very nice wine selection. Love this place! ”
“ Outstanding Seafood Experience in Key West I recently dined at Grand Cafe in Key West, and it was a truly memorable experience. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and treated to exceptional service by our server, Ivan. Ivan’s knowledge of the menu and his passion for delivering a top-notch dining experience stood out immediately. He recommended the freshest seafood options, and every single one was a winner. Truffle shrimp penne and Whole baked branzino was perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor, and delicious cocktails was the best I’ve ever had. What really made the evening special was Ivan’s attention to detail. He anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, and his friendly yet professional demeanor made us feel completely at home. The atmosphere of the restaurant was relaxed yet vibrant, capturing the unique charm of Key West. Combined with the outstanding seafood and Ivan’s exceptional service, it was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had. If you’re in Key West, make sure to visit Grand Cafe and ask for Ivan – he’ll make your evening unforgettable! Highly recommend! ”
“ there are many bars and fast food restaurants in key west, but the Grand Cafe Key West offers a slightly different dining experience: we ate a great tuna tatar, salads and main dishes had great drinks there there were linen napkins, etc. ”
“ Everything was excellent. Our server, I’m sorry I can’t remember her name, was great. My wife and I are picky about our cocktails and the server listened to us intently and was able to tell the bartender exactly what we wanted. Kudos to the bartender, too. The food was great as well. The atmosphere and location is amazing. ”
“ Great food and a cool place that should be rated much higher. Ivan was awesome and it was the best dinner we’ve had in the Keys. Worth every dollar. Everything was great, but the blue cheese & walnut salad was amazing. ”
