CHICOS CANTINA OF KEY WEST – Mexican
Family-run since 1984 on Stock Island, where US-1 makes its last run into Key West, with indoor tables and a back patio. The kitchen leans on what comes off the boat: batter-dipped Baja tacos of fresh catch under cabbage and queso fresco, a fish taco dinner served deconstructed to build yourself, pan-seared or poached yellowtail snapper in spicy or cilantro garlic sauce, and seafood enchiladas with scallops and shrimp. Away from the water sit carne asada with potato quesadillas, Yucatecan achiote pork chops, chicken chipotle, classic masa tamales and menudo by the bowl. Closed Sundays. Reliably unfussy, and reliably fresh.
