Greatest Italian restaurant I’ve ever been to. The owner and their family sat down together after we received our food and had a family meal themselves. Best bruschetta and chicken piccata I’ve had. Thank y’all!

Finding Sicily and Italy in Key West wasn't easy. Even finding it on the plates would have been impossible... but then you find this place and your holiday turns around. Excellent dishes prepared with care and according to Italian and Sicilian culinary tradition. They immediately bring you four glasses of fresh water completely free of charge and as soon as it runs low in the glass they fill it up immediately. Very welcoming location, exquisite staff, the owner Francesca, Sicilian DOC, is a splendid and very friendly person. As a celiac I can say that I ate the best gluten free pizza even compared to Italy. Local located a few meters from the area where you can see the sunset - Mallory Square - and from Duval Street. Very honest and normal prices

Found this place by the exquisite aroma. Nino, our waiter was not only excellent but quite good-looking. The owner was enjoying a delicious meal as well. We had complimentary fresh bruschetta, then arancini, for an appetizer. We had lobster ravioli as an entree that was out of this world. My sister drank her usual Pinot grigio, and I had a delicious Pinot nior. We are going back tomorrow.

Tables are VERY close together, like for me to move from my seat the lady at the next table literally had to stand up and move, her back was touching our table. Felt way to closterphobic for me. Also the bruschetta wasn't very good , I expected much better from a place with bruschetta in the name.

A unique, cool experience with authentic Italian food, freshly made pasta and we got a complimentary dessert for our honeymoon. Try to sit in our server Mauricio’s section as he was one of the best servers we’ve ever had. Definitely recommend and we will absolutely be back.

We have walked by this place numerous times in this being our 3rd summer staying in Key West, and have kept saying we need to try it, well we finally did and it did not disappoint!! We ordered the special that night which was the ANTIPASTO ITALIANO and OMG it was so AMAZING!! We then also ordered a cheese pizza, this place was so worth the wait. We will without a doubt make this a place we will go to frequently!! Can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu!!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bruschetta Restaurant in Key West, and it was an experience worth raving about. From the moment I walked in, the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel right at home. To start, I enjoyed the bruschetta, which was a delightful combination of fresh ingredients and robust flavors. The bread was perfectly toasted, topped with generous portions of tomatoes, cheese, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze, making each bite a perfect blend of crunch and taste. The highlight of my meal was the Spaghetti Pescatore. The pasta was cooked to perfection, mingling seamlessly with the fresh seafood that included shrimp, clams, and mussels. The dish was seasoned just right, allowing the natural flavors of the seafood to shine through, complemented by a light sauce that tied everything together beautifully. To wash down the meal, I opted for the traditional Birra Moretti beer. This authentic Italian lager was the perfect accompaniment to the flavorful dishes, offering a crisp and refreshing contrast to the rich and savory food. Adding to the wonderful dining experience was our server, Alex. He was attentive and made sure our table had everything we needed, enhancing the overall enjoyment of our visit. Bruschetta Restaurant not only offers delicious food but also provides a warm and welcoming dining experience. If you’re in Key West, this is a must-visit spot for a taste of Italian cuisine done right.

I’ve lived here for a while and was exploring today on my day off. I was walking by this place with a friend and we were looking for a happy hour. The 1/2 price bruschetta appetizer caught our eye and we decided to give it a try. I am so happy we did! This is literally the best food I’ve ever had in Key West. The bread was so fresh- crusty yet soft and absolutely delicious. The pesto was definitely homemade- flavorful and perfectly blended. The calamari was flighty fried and crispy. The drinks were strong. The service was fast and efficient. This place is the biggest hidden gem. I can’t believe I’ve never heard of this place- but I can’t wait to come back with my family and some more friends. This is officially my new favorite restaurant in Key West 🥰🤤🤤

We strolled in here after the sunset on Mallory Square and most places weren't serving any more. Let me tell you how thankful I am everyone else was closed! The people here take care of you like family and give you a true authentic Italian experience. The food is INSANE and the complimentary bruchetta just melts in your mouth. We loved it so much we came back the next day for happy hour! Pizza was amazing, flat bread blew us away and the grilled Octupus was a first experience for us and would tell everyone to go see why these guys are killing it. This is now "The Spot" for my wife and I in Key West! 11 out of 10, if you skip on this place you will be missing out.

We were down in Key West last week and were headed to a different restaurant that we found to be closed when we happened upon this lovely little gem. My husband is not an adventurous eater so he ordered the lasagna and I ordered the Antipasto and Carbonara. Our waiter told me they were out of an antipasto item so they weren't serving it that night. Disappointed, I started to look over the menu again when the waiter came back with the owner who said there was a miscommunication and they had just received the antipasto item and were able to serve it! I had a bite of the lasagna and quickly decided he'd ordered the better of our two dishes. My food was fabulous, however. The antipasto was out of this world and carbonara was magnificent. But the lasagna was the best we've ever had. The owner told us it is her and her mother's recipe. So, do yourself a favor and have the lasagna. You won't regret it.

Response to restaurant: why on earth would we dine there again after getting severe food poisoning? My husband had the chicken Marsala . That was not mentioned in your response? I had the lasagna, hubby had the chicken Marsala and one daughter had spaghetti and meatballs and the other kid had fettuccine Alfredo. The ones sick were my husband and my daughter that ate chicken fettuccine Alfredo. So sad you take no accountability . Sad. We ordered our dinner for a family of 4 and had it delivered to the opal hotel. All seemed fine until my husband and daughter awoke in the middle of the night throwing up and severe diarrhea! This lasted for hours!! I called the restaurant the next day and spoke to the manager on duty informing him and indicating it was food poisoning. He took my name and number down and said he would call me back. Well it’s been a few days later and I have flown home and they never even apologized or called back ! Beware! This food will make you sick!

Oh my goodness, being from Philadelphia there’s all kinds of Italian restaurants, and for the first time I was able to experience authentic Sicilian cuisine And it was amazingly delicious and I really know good pizza and pasta. If you’re in Key West, you should definitely check them out. The chef will greet you at the door and most of the employees speak Italian so the ambience is so authentic. It’s on the very quaint little street of Fitzpatrick in key west.
