Marlin Cafe — Restaurant in Key West

We actually ate here for lunch two days in a row. The tacos are amazing. I got the steak and my husband got the carnitas day one. The green sauce (didn't have the consistency of a typical verde, I believe it was something else) was so good, the right amount of heat and a great flavor. The website would not allow you to order birria even though it is on the menu, so the second day we called it in. I got the quesabirria tacos and my husband got the birria quesadilla. My tacos came with radishes on it. I was pleasantly surprised about it. I'm not really a fan of radishes personally but it really went well in this. My tacos came with consume and more of the green sauce that I shared with my husband. We also got rice and beans, Cuban bread and fried plantains. Very good....

Walking around Key West i came along this place… since I am a fan of Foodtrucks, let’s go give it a try.

I ordered a Cubano Sandwich and a Colada.

Besides missing the little cream, the Colada was great. A the size is decent and appreciated.

The sandwich was quite actually really good. Thin beef, ham, lettuce, sauce, and pickle relish. I was missing tomatoes.

The downside was the time waiting. Queuing for about 5-10 minutes, plus additional waiting time of 20 minutes, is definitely too long (came here on a Saturday morning before 10AM). At least any giving info or so would be nice.

Imho the price is a little high for the size. And I was missing the fries… :-/

Well located, next to the Blue...

Saw the reviews on them and was excited to see they had food in key west that i like …as i walking down the street i saw the truck and figured give it a try since it was 520pm around dinner hour…the door to truck was cracked and could hear music so i called the number on the truck to order and no one picked up and then since door was cracked i knocked on door and asked if they were still serving since showed open till 8 but no answer….i think with them you have to be there at certain time when they feel like working …but disappointed after see such good reviews …not wasting my time since there other decent places...
