Norm ThomasSeptember 7, 2012Great food, great prices awesome sangria! Life rarely gets better than this, especially if you are there with good friends and time to spare. Highly recommended; I'll go back there as soon as I canUpvoted 3 weeks ago
Cassandra ToppinoDecember 1, 2014The best Cuban food in town. The siboney steak is my favorite although the breaded steak is a close second. Instead of black beans I have been ordering the red beans and they are now my favorite.
Lamija AleckovicDecember 2, 2013Loved garlic shrimps. Plantanas were great, avocado salad mmmm! Great laidback place for great food! I strongly recommend it to anyone who lives food and needs no fancy place to eat like a king!
ValentinaNovember 6, 2013Amazing food and excellent sangria!! So glad followed the reviews to this place! Hidden gem for sure. The grouper filet and whole fish plate was to die for!
Robert NavarSeptember 4, 2016Outstanding baked chicken, really flavorful and falls off the bone. Tamales not what you'd expect, but good nonetheless. Service a little indifferent, probably because they're really busy. Awesome!
Paul GriffithOctober 30, 2012Don't fill up on the bread! Best Cuban restaurant in the Keys. Off the touron radar. Pork chunks and roasted chicken are interstellar. Soup of the day, a must. Cafe con Leche, for sure.
Jan GonzalesAugust 27, 2014great Cuban surf and turf; feels like home here and the service is quick (unless they are trying to kick me out since they were about to close)
Greta PerryAugust 3, 2013Everything is fabulous. Conch chowder was amazing. Stuck to my Cuban favorites: black beans, yellow rice and plantanos- amazing.
Melissa Estrella IveyJune 3, 2014Best whole fried fish I've ever had! Every time I visit Key West we stop here for lunch. Always consistent, and delicious food. Good prices!
Jen KarrJanuary 28, 2011If you love Cuban food, it's a must eat at place. Get the roast pork or seafood, and of course the black beans, rice and plantains. Sit at the counter, talk to locals, and life will be good.
Chris CegielskiMay 28, 2018Found the service to be outstanding and the food matches it. The roast pork was super tender and the garlic shrimp just the right amount of zing.
Savannah BrownDecember 27, 2016Best meal I've had during my entire stay in Key West! DON'T MISS THIS GEM!
Kate RitchieMay 24, 2012Had their garlic shrimp (like a super fresh and tangy scampi) and split portions bc it's more than enough for two. When the local police are eating there. U know it's good:0)
Hauoli PazNovember 28, 2013Amazing food! I love the garlic chicken and my husband's pulled beef. Huge portions with wonderful flavor. Skip the salads and appetizers.- Carlos RoblesFebruary 6, 2019We had roasted pork and churrasco with rice and beans it was just great!!! Best Spanish food in the island!
Tathi KnackJuly 3, 2017Food is fine, nothing out of this world. The bread everyone talks about is like Brazilian pão na chapa and their Siboney Steak is like our bife com arroz e feijão. Large portions, 1 serves 2 adults.
Asia LindsayJuly 18, 2015The bread they serve is so good it'll make you want to cry. Ditto with the conch chowder. Portions are huge (like the rest of Key West)
Tomas PflanzerJuly 16, 2015Best Cuban restaurant on Keys. Try Roast Pork with yellow rice and black beans.
Rodreich StotsenburgOctober 2, 2011Whole fish was great. Looked over cooked but no worries. Stuffed shrimp was above average. Black beans were very good. Mixed rice and hot sauce...wow. plantenes / bananas were perfect dessert
Ava HiltonApril 21, 2017Mostly known by locals. Seek it out, it will not disappoint for true Cuban fare!
Eric WolfJune 19, 2015Outstanding Cuban food. Everything on the menu is fresh and flavorful. Great meals for a great price.
Michael PerezJuly 6, 2014The ropa vieja entree was delicious and so was the Mahi mahi. Portion sizes were decent as well. The waitress was nice however she did not check up on us as we were eating.
Dion BarelaJune 18, 2015Absolutely the best Cuban I've had so far. The best conch chowder and pork. Come hungry! #BringFriends- Rodreich StotsenburgOctober 2, 2011Conch soup. very very good. No seafood taste. Tomato based, a little spicy (for those of you that like spit food, it is not spicy at all - you understand me here). Squeeze the lime into the soup.
Brantley BoldenFebruary 3, 2016Great food, had the chicken and shrimp lunch special, it didn't disappoint.
Ashley M.December 21, 2012Delicious! Everything is good, but I especially loved the yellow rice and black beans. Off the beaten path too!
Patrick OrwigSeptember 14, 2016Steak Sidney yellow rice and black beans with Sangria. Awesome!! Add a little hot sauce-delicious!
Carolina RevillaJanuary 3, 2017The wait is awful for the quality of the food and service. I don't know why this place gets such a high rating, the food was less than average and we waited for our food for more than 45 minutes
Anyeley HallovaJanuary 6, 2015My go-to Cuban food in Key West. Saturday oxtail special is to die for.
Yvonnie AmetinDecember 2, 2013Make sure you read receipt...18% gratuity included with parties of 4 or more...when you get credit card receipt there's still space for tip so...- #7 (siboney steak) and the roast pork are DELISH!! I highly recommend either! And don't forget the sangria to wash it down!!
Richard RevillaJanuary 4, 2017Food is authentic but that's about it. Long wait and the hype is not worth your night. It's cheap but lacks the experience.
Sean B.June 7, 2013The el Siboney, flank steak, maduros, black beans, and yellow rice are a must try.
Ryan BankertMay 22, 2013Get a pitcher of sangria and the roasted pork... I wanted to go back again the next night
Caroline HJune 15, 2012Great food (we had the garlic shrimp and grilled snapper), great sangria, and great service.
Jason LaFrenaisAugust 7, 2012Awesome Cuban food in a very non-touristy environment. Had #1 and #2, both excellent.
J DOctober 25, 2011Get the avocado salad (if they have it) with some puerco frito and rice and beans. U'll thank me later.
JenKuduJanuary 18, 2011Garlic chicken is amazing!! You can't go wrong with the roasted pork either. And the Cuban bread is delicious! We ate two baskets.

"Fun to wander by. But there was a line 50-deep when we stopped there (to take photos) so go early. Or just enjoy the stop and don't worry about the photo opp."
