    A great historic bar and restaurant in the heart of old town Key West! Great draft beer, cocktails and food! The bartender was phenomenal and very efficient. Lively atmosphere, live music and all around an enjoyable time! A must stop bar and restaurant when site seeing around Duval Street or bar hopping during the day and night! Plastic souvenir cups are yours to take home with you!

    Loved this place and all the food we Got. Tuna nachos were by far the best. We ordered multiple after seeing how good it was. Great live band also was there. Would definitely recommend going. Staff was nice and friendly. Drinks were also good.

    Tasty tuna and fish. Unfortunately Blacked Shrimp tacos were far too spicy for our kid and were not warned. Chips were tasty, nice atmosphere. There was four adults and 20% gratuity added without our will. Plastic glasses for a beer are also disappointing.

    First time trying some of their food. Tuna Nachos, definitely worth getting. The Beef Nachos were good, but the Tuna Nachos were better. The Tuna Dip was too much like a Tuna Salad.

    First of all, this place has the best filling for their Key Lime pie out of all the places we got Key Lime pie in Key West. It had the second best crust. Overall all...fantastic homemade Key Lime Pie. The live music here was great. Food was solid. Server was so kind and took great care of us. If you're looking for dinner and live music while in Key West, I highly recommend. If you're looking for Key Lime pie, they exceeded the pie specialty shops.

    Fresh catch tacos were great but the beans didn’t taste the greatest and didn’t set well with stomach all night. The the drinks on the other had were delicious.

    If you are visiting definitely stop by! Music is great! Happy hour is good. When the wings are done right they are the best in town. No hot sauce needed, just eat them the way they are served. Just did Olga’s slow roasted pork tacos. Amazing flavor! Had to be marinated for a long time!!

    In a word, excellent. We started with the conch fritters and they were as good as any we've had. I had the dolphin sandwich with black beans and rice. Excellent. My wife has the tuna nachos. Fantastic. Good portions and a great value. And they are dog friendly! Will definitely be going back.

    It's a great casual bar with live music. Cliff Cody with his country versions of rock covers and some quality original tunes. We started with the smoked tuna dip and enjoyed it. The bar drinks were well made, but the premade frozen drinks were a little weak. We sat at the bar, and EMI was very attentive despite the crowd. I would have given the Smokin Tuna a 5 if it wasn't for the occasional smoking at the bar, the roof is a tarp, so it may be allowed.

    Spent a stupid amount on dining throughout the keys. This was one of the few places that was a great value and exceptional. Service was excellent, appropriate music level and great vibe. I will return and you should go.

    Took a nice bike ride to Smokin' Tuna and loved the atmosphere. Cool backyard type of feel with lights and a nice stage. We weren't there long, just a stop to escape the sun and have a cold one, but the live music while we were there was great. Neat Smokin' Tuna cups that our beers were served in, and friendly bartenders. Definitely will stop in here when in Key West next time! 👍

    Great music, great drinks, fantastic food, and a wonderful staff. We were recommended the tuna nachos by our bartender and they were out of control. Just a great place overall.

    Don't come here if you're afraid to sweat, but if you want a fantastic meal, with excellent service, this is THE SPOT!

  • 4/5 Lorraine M. 1 year ago on Google
    Fun place to catch some live music - one of many in Key West but this place has an amazing Blackened Yellowfin Tuna sandwich. Had it seared and requested their soy sauce.. and comes with fries and a remoulade dipping sauce. Fire! We were attending Fantasy Fest and made a point to come back here Saturday night for a late dinner and more music. Totally worth trying if you’ve never been.

    Miami was our starting point, so we revved up the engine and took off to explore America's southernmost limits. After a three-hour road trip to Key West, it felt like we had reached an exciting new hideout for criminals on the run! We could feel hunger coming in waves (and also thirst), which led us straight into Smokin' Tuna - as recommended by none other than the parking guy himself! Our refreshment came in forms of cold beers and delicious seafood delicacies that were served alongside groovy music. With fun vibes from a rowdy crowd around us, there really wasn't anything left for me to do expect give this joint two thumbs up if you ever find yourself near Ernest Hemingway’s home turf!

    Great place! Music was awesome, the TUNA NACHOS are out of this world. The wings and shrimp tacos were to die for. Service was stellar. A must visit when in KW.

    Great place! Perfect vibe for your keys visit, local bands playing live music every night

  • 3/5 Jocelyne V. 1 year ago on Google
    We chose to have dinner here, it is right out of Duval street so we thought it'd be nice to have some quiet from the busy touristic street with live music as well. We chose the Tuna sandwich and the catch of the day, we tried the conch fritters (really good!) and the ceviche (so fresh!). We were overall pleased with our dinner, having little emblematic Roosters roaming free around us. The bill came with an automatic set amount of gratuity which really threw us off. For a party of 4! I would understand if we were a large group, but the waitress cleared marked off the suggested gratuity to add her own amount. It literally ruined our 1st night as we felt scammed.

    We just went to the bar for drinks. But the guy singing was oh so fun. He had his wife do a song with him. She's got an amazing voice. We didn't eat just drank. Atmosphere is so fun.
