Overlooking the waterfront, this sprawling open-sided eatery and drinking space is a fun place to get you in the Key West spirit. The allure: a festive happy hour, the chatty laid-back crowd, island breezes and live music (nightly from 6pm to 10pm, plus afternoons on Friday and Saturday). The seafood is also quite good (mains $15 to $30).
