Great restaurant with knowledgable people. A must-visit in Key West.

Steven, our server was excellent and attentive. He explained the menu and paced our meal perfectly. The food was also delicious all around. We had appetizers, drinks, salads, dessert… the works. All very well done and a beautiful atmosphere. Thank you for a great evening!

Not what we expected. Was seated in the same area where it seems a corporate group of 30 people was seated. Why not sit them or us in another section of the restaurant. We could not hear ourselves. Unfortunately most of menu items they did not have ie anything veal they did not have Setvice very slow… the 1st appetizer was the carne crudo and we had to send back as the meat looked so old and was flavorless.

Very disappointed in our experience! They were out of many items on their menu which we only found out about when we placed our orders. The excuse was they buy fresh daily and their suppliers were out. Kind of lame! My suggestion is mention what you don’t have before the customer orders!

The seafood stew was outstanding, but the veal tenderloin was only fair and the black grouper was good but one was overdone. Service and ambiance was very good. I would recommend this with certain reservations.

Quiet restaurant, it was even hard to find with the signs pointing towards it but nicely secluded upstairs in an area where many restaurants coexist next to marina. Service was amazing, always asking if you needed anything and proactively adjusting towards your needs. The food was also delicious although we only tried two pasta dishes this night. Great wine selection would definitely go back

Really delicious food-we had the caprese salad, lobster pasta and shrimp pasta!

I tried pulling up a dinner menu before going but was unsuccessful. Unfamiliar with many items on the menu, not traditional Italian. The waiter was attentive and took back the Veal Marsala which was too sweet. Just not our type of food, sorry.

Great experience. The service was perfect. The food was delicious. The ambiance was delightful. Very romantic! We will be back!

We’ve been coming to Key West since 1972… been to many restaurants here over the years and this is one of the very best. Highly recommend!
