Key West

Since its 2017 opening in Old Town, Little Pearl has earned acclaim as one of the best seafood restaurants in Key West. The chic and compact venue with refined maritime décor is a delightful spot to sample chef John Ingelsby’s take on local seafood. Some of his most tempting creations reveal a certain southern influence, as in the jumbo shrimp with stone-ground grits and the baked oysters with braised greens, pickled onion and mustard seed. Others lean toward the tropics, such as the Bangkok octopus appetizer and king crab and papaya salad with shiso vinaigrette. The signature lobster, shrimp and crab pot pie puts a Florida seafood spin on a homegrown comfort food classic.
