Thai Cuisine Restaurant
513 Greene, Key West, Florida
Phone: (305) 294.9424
Despite the many gourmet restaurants in Key West, your choices for Asian fare are limited. At the end of Duval on Greene street in Old Town Key West, you’ll find 2 Asian restaurants : a Sushi Restaurant and a Thai restaurant named Thai Cuisine - yeah it’s not the most creative name but since the sushi restaurant was empty and there was a lot of people at the Thai restaurant we checked it out.
Started off with a Tom Yum Soup which was quite tasty (a little on the salty side for me):

The penang chicken was pretty good. The curry sauce had a nice spice to it and had a noticeable lemon grass flavor.

The spicy red snapper was a great choice as well. It comes with spicy red sauce that is drizzled over deep fried pieces of filleted red snapper:

We finished with a dish of fried bananas and ice cream:

The food here overall was quite nice and the service was excellent. In addition to the indoor restaurant, there’s an outdoor patio that is adjacent to the sidewalk. It makes for great casual dinning with candle lit dinner tables and a soft cool breeze drifting in from the nearby seaport.
