My husband and I own a restaurant up North, so when we came upon A&B Lobster House we thought we'd give it a try since we had been striking out at some of the other restaurants around town. I can't say enough good things about this place!!! From the atmosphere, to the service, to the food, to the cleanlinesss of... more

I had my birthday dinner here and ordered the surf and turf. It came with mashed potatoes that tasted like they were from a box and whipped up in minutes. Like instant potatoes! Spent $50 each on 4 plates since there were 4 of us.......The filet was tiny and the florida lobster tail was the size of a quarter! They... more

First, I just can't believe the negative reviews here. We actually ate here twice in 3 nights - it was that delicious! We love upscale dining experiences and A & B did not disappoint us. Yes, it is expensive - but so worth it. The food was fabulous. We had the lobster bisque, summer salad, split a lobster dinner special... more

Let me just say first off that the view from the balcony facing the docks was beautiful. Also, our waitress was lovely and quite accomidating. The food, however, deteriorated through the courses. The soup and salad were the best parts of the meal, and the most inexpensive. We could have saved ourselves $70 by just sticking with that and not... more

Stumbled on this place by accident and had an early dinner prior to going to malory square for the sunset. We sat outside and whilst not in a prime location in front of the building it was nice to sit and watch the people strolling past. Had three courses there and each one was really, really good! My hogfish for... more

We stumbled here by accident on our first night in Key West. We were starving and decided to go to dinner at 7-ish (sunset was at 7:40) so the restaraunt was relatively empty. Because of this, we were able to sit on the outdoor patio facing the marina and it was beautiful even though it faced east and we did... more

Had high expectation, we didn't have reservation but it was Monday and it was very early for dinner. The host give us a table outside (per our request) but in the worst corner of the outdoor balcony ! We ask to change as 1) it was our first time here, 2) most of the table was available, it was not... more

My husband and I had dinner on Easter Day here. We sat outside on the nice deck facing the boat docks. Even though there were many people dining there that night we experienced wonderful and prompt service. We had the Tuna Tataki ( very fresh) for starters, then shared the Lobster Bisque which was ok. The caviar garnishment helped with... more

Party of 4 for dinner Apr 7, 2009. The restaurant is on the water (actually adjacent to docks and does not have a view) and is near the center of the Key West tourist area. The restaurant ws not busy at about 8:00 and we were seated quickly. The server seemed befuttled and unsure of the menu items and one... more
