One of my personal favorites is El Siboney at 900 Catherine Street in Old Town. THey have the best Cuban food in the Keys for great prices.

trip advisor has a really good key west forum. You can get info on anything you want from the locals that post there. They were very helpful in planning my wedding there last year.

I haven't been down in two years, but Jack Flats on Duval was cheaper than other places on Duval. It was good too.

What about Margaritaville on Duval? I know it seems like a cheesy chain restaurant, but they serve delicious fish sandwiches for under $10 and some of the best conch fritters I have had!

Yeah, but Margaritaville is a fun experience if you are on vacation. Definitely get the conch fritters, they are a must try. Speaking of food you must try, other traditional Keys items are:
-Snapper, grouper, mahi mahi
-Key lime pie
-Cuban sandwich

Yes, those are musts for sure! Make sure you hit up the Blond Giraffe on Duval, too. They have great key lime pie (you can even get it frozen on a stick, covered in chocolate) and I really miss their iced mate (like a herbal tea) drinks!

I was down there for week at Christmas and I found myself going back to Jack Flats and Margaritaville everyday for lunch or dinner. The food is good, basic and the prices are reasonable for Key West.
Worst food and service............. Hog's Breath....yuck !!!

I have not had a bad meal there, a lot of the places have the menus outside the restaurants. I hope that helps
