Key West seafood restaurant in the heart of old town on Petronia. The menu is kept small so that everything is nice and fresh for you. Yellowtail snapper, fish of the day, Key West pink shrimp, and seafood medley highlight the menu.
Deviled Eggs topped with Scallops, Shrimp Mango Toast and Crispy Pork Belly Croustinis tantalize the pallet. Beef stroganoff made with certified black angus beef is a favorite.

Relaxing, unpretentious, and romantic.
Seating is very limited.
24 Hour Cancellation window.
For the consideration of our guests, we do not accept parties over the size of six (6).
We offer a 6 pm and an 8 pm seating.
BEER AND WINE AVAILABLE.
No Children's menu available.

This wonderful little restaurant was a delight. Menu is short but offers good variety. We enjoyed stroganoff, snapper and grouper after scallops on deviled eggs offered a tasty start. Charming staff. This was our best meal in Key West.

Incredible experience, as usual! We look so forward to coming here when we visit Key West. We had our usual beef stroganoff and snapper and both were exceptional. The lavender cheesecake is to die for!!

Came for Thanksgiving. Food was delicious though portions are rather small, especially appetizers. Casual fine dining. Intimate atmosphere. Felt a bit rushed since they were trying to squeeze in two seatings.
