Blue Heaven

The 15 Best Restaurants In Key West - Key West - The Infatuation

"If you’ve done even a tiny amount of research on where to eat in Key West, you’ve probably seen the words Blue Heaven. And this classic is worth a visit. That’s not because of the seafood-heavy menu—which is fine, if a little antiquated—but because there’s just something about the outdoor space that channels the very essence of Key West. Tables are scattered beneath a huge tree that hangs over the entire restaurant, and there’s usually live music playing at the ideal volume. If nothing on the menu is speaking to you, just get the cheeseburger and a slice of their famous key lime pie with a ridiculously tall hat of meringue. There will be a wait during busy season, but if you’re just here for the pie, you can buy a slice at Blue Heaven’s outdoor bar across the street and watch someone sing cover songs." - ryan pfeffer
