    My wife and I spent the weekend in Key West. This dining experience was the best food we had all weekend. The shrimp was excellent, the grouper was delicious, and the asparagus tasted savory and had great texture. All of the small plates tasted great and was enhanced by the Japanese grill they used. Great char on everything.

    Best meal we’ve ever had in Key West! We tried lots - salmon crispy rice, KW pink shrimp yakitori, and scallop sashimi were some of our faves. And the bao buns were perfect pillows of yumminess! Ambience is casual but elegant and very welcoming. Service was fantastic- everyone who helped us was friendly and happy to make recommendations. Highly recommend!

    As avid lovers of Asian cuisine and sushi, we were excited to try this spot. The set up is beautiful and the service was excellent however, the food was disappointing. The best menu items we had were the pickles and the salmon and tuna nigiri. The nigiri is one piece per serving. The dumplings seemed pre made and were fried in one giant patty with an over powering taste of oil. We tried two rolls. Both the salmon skin roll and shrimp tempura roll were subpar and lacked flavor. Overall this location has great service but if you’re craving sushi, this isn’t your place.

    We’ve tried most of the restaurants in Key West. Atlas Izakaya is a unique experience and a hidden gem. Quaint surroundings, great service, and really good food. We had the lobster Bao buns (yum!), pork/crab dumpling (not my favorite), and the Snapper Yakitori (also yum), and the spicy broccoli (double yum). Also a nice saki flight and cocktail. The mark of a good place is asking yourself if you want to return again. Yes, we will be back to this one!

    Looove Atlas! Food is amazing and not your typical Key West French fries with fried fish. The tuna crispy rice is spectacular. All the dumplings are delicious. Wine and beer are unique (love the brut rose). And the service… owner Amy makes it personal and fun. And prices are reasonable for a tourist town. Definitely a restaurant to visit often !

    Great experience. The food was creative and delicious - my favorite was the tonkatsu. The crunchy rice was also great with tuna.
