Kiki's Sandbar & Grille

Right on the water and unlike many other places in the lower keys, it's away from the main highway. The place has quite a large parking lot, but due to the number of folks who go there, you may have to park out on the side road. It's huge, with areas under cover. Upstairs, or outside. There are 2 bands every day, the service is good, and they have a varied selection of food and drinks. We thoroughly enjoyed everything we had, especially their cheesecake. It was creamy and moist. One drawback is the restroom by the stage. There is only one toilet in each, and there was a line the whole time we were there. I didn't notice if there were others, but that's where we were nearest. Most of the crowd are friendly locals and long-term snowbirds. Also lot of friendly dogs.

Kiki's Sandbar & Grille is a laid-back gem with beachy vibes, offering more than just fantastic food and drinks. Nestled in a relaxed setting, it's the perfect spot to unwind with the added bonus of outstanding live music. The diverse menu, featuring fresh seafood and casual bites, pairs seamlessly with the coastal ambiance. Whether you're enjoying a sunset view or vibing to the tunes, Kiki's Sandbar & Grille ensures a mellow and enjoyable escape. With great live music enhancing the atmosphere, it's a top choice for those seeking a chill beachfront experience with a side of fantastic tunes.

Randomly found this spot. The restaurant is 2 levels (second level indoor) the outside area is incredible and spacious (sand all around outside area). They also have a cool area with comfy chairs to watch the live music. It was so relaxing and nice.
Menu has a lot of options.Service is good thanks to Cristy.

Typical keys waterfront on the sand 🏝️

Super friendly service, great drinks, fun music and average food.

We just stopped in for a snack and a drink so couldn’t have been happier.

We were staying at one of the hotels near by and got a 10% discount with our parking pass!

A great pit stop if you are staying in the area.

We drove up from Key West on a Sunday Outing to try Kiki's...we've driven by at least a hundred times and never stopped. So today was the day to give it a try.

The setting is great, and the service was superb. The food was just uninspiring. The shrimp in the shrimp basket were over cooked and the sweet potato fries did not do it for us; they seemed too sweet, like there was some sugar in that coating. We also had the tuna nachos, and they were good. We prefer the similar dish at Geiger Key Marina.

The band started at 1pm and the place got pretty crowded for a Sunday afternoon.

If we were visiting and it was out first time at a Keys on-the-water restaurant with live music and seafood galore we would have been impressed.

We loved the theatre style seating looking out on the channel. We were entertained by a jetski towing a party boat.

Glad we stopped, but nothing compelling enough to visit again.
