I would definitely recommend eating/drinks during the sunsets. We were there on Friday and Saturday nights and thoroughly enjoyed eating on their patio, listening to their band and watching their dancers while the sun set. We only ate their tapas but they were DELICIOSO! This place is a pretty good deal compared with other restaurants in Key West, especially those... more

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner here last weekend. Sat outside in the garden, beautiful weather. It is very good food and excellent service. A great choice for dinner so you can first go see the acts at Mallory Square as the sun is setting, then go to dinner here right afterwards. The roast pork was great! more

Food here is not all that great. If you love good food, then this is not the place for you. more

This is a great place to eat outside at Mallory Sq if it's not too hot out. Food was good and filling. more

Okay... all over Florida you see advertisements for the Cuban sandwich. Well, I've eaten quite a few Cuban sandwiches and the one at Pepe is the best. You don't want too much meat, or it's not properly pressed! This restaurant is so cute - filled with Mario Sanchez artwork and artifacts from the days when Cuba was a day trip... more

My boyfriend and I had dinner here on our last night at Key West and cannot imagine what all the bad reviews are about. I dine in NYC quite a bit, particularly in Latin neighborhoods, where authenticity is paramount. I found this food to be exceptional! My boyfriend is not particularly fond of what he would describe as "ethnic" food,... more

We went here for lunch on July 28th with high hopes for a delicious, authentic Cuban meal. Instead we received a below average meal and HORRIBLE service. The waitress was unattentative and indifferent. The interior was interestingly decorated with unique artwork and photos of Cuban sports figures. Unfortunately, that was not enough to make up for the short comings. When... more

We went for dinner following the sunset at Mallory Square; all around horrible experience. First I was told that they did not serve cuban sandwiches at dinner, and that cuban sandwich was a cuss-word in the kitchen, as the waiter tried to joke. Then, my wife wasn't able to substitute guacamole in her dish and had to get a completely... more

We visit Key West fairly frequently (at least 2 or 3 times a year) and we always wanted to eat here. We have seen the dancing outside and smelled the great food, but have always seemed to run out of time. Luckily on this trip we finally were in the right spot at the right time! We were hungry after... more

Recently visited as a party of 25. We were very excited to visit however once they saw our large party they insisted on one check. We explained that we would have about 8 checks and they proceeded to just get nasty about it stating they could only do one check. I personally thought they would be happy to have us... more
