Blue Heaven in Key West



We really enjoy being able to sit outside when we go out to eat in Key West, and one of our favorite places to sit outdoors is Blue Heaven. Lately we've really liked going to Blue Heaven for breakfast where Joe loves the shrimp and grits. We tend to get there pretty early before there is much of a wait, but at peak times be prepared to spend some time waiting on your table. Blue Heaven uses a check in system where they send you a text message when your table is ready. With nearly all of its seating outside this isn't the place to go on rainy days, but in the morning when its cool we thing breakfast is one of the best time to try Blue Heaven. So the next time you are in Key West go ahead and try the shrimp and grits at Blue Heaven just like Josh and Joe Travels!

Grunts Bar and Garbos Grill in Key West




With so many great places to eat in Key West we sometimes just want simple food, and Garbo's Grill is a food truck at Grunt's Bar on Caroline serving up some of the best tacos and hot dogs in town. Josh was eager to try Garbo's for the Korean bbq tacos and Joe tried a quarter pound hot dog. We went after sunset on a Saturday and probably waited around 30 minutes including the time we spent in line waiting to order and the time it took for our number to be served. Garbo's is popular with tourists and they have a good local following. We talked to a couple locals who hit Garbo's on a regular basis and we can see why. The Korean bbq is delicious and is served in good portions. So the next time you are in Key West and you want to try some great food on Caroline St, take a walk to Garbo's Grill just like Josh and Joe Travels!
