This past New Year’s Eve, my husband and I decided to go with some friends to one of our favorite Key West restaurants, Nine One Five. We have eaten here many, many times and have never once had a bad meal, until New Year’s Eve that is. It was a special fixe price menu ($100 per person), and the menu looked amazing. Unfortunately, the food was not. At least the service was good as was the atmosphere.

Located at MM 22.5 on Cudjoe Key, Square Grouper Bar and Grill has been a favorite restaurant of mine, and many other locals, since its opening.

The bartender was awesome and the drinks on the menu were original and very yummy. I had a coconut sakitini which was amazing. (more…)

After picking up my husband and some friends at the airport the other night we stopped by the restaurant at Hurricane Hole Marina for a later bite to eat. In the past, the quality had been wanting, but the restaurant was recently taken over so we thought that we would try it out.
When we arrived there were only 2 people at the bar and no one seated in the outside dining area which we thought unusual, but were happy about that so that the guys could relax after a long flight. Our waiter, Matt, brought over some menus which have been completely revised since the time of our last visit. (more…)
