CAFE MARQUESA – American
The dining room of the Marquesa Hotel on Fleming Street, in Key West's Old Town, keeps a small seasonal card that changes with what the boats and farms send.

Then Key West pink shrimp and grits, grilled lamb ribs glazed with harissa and honey, local yellowtail snapper, blackened mahi-mahi, wagyu Denver steak.
