In this episode, Mark Baratto sits down with Maggie Montoya, the co-founder of Milagro Restaurant & Bar.
We talk about how Maggie and her husband Kevin (the head chef) got started in the business, how Kevin's Mexican heritage influences his food creations, and why they moved their restaurant from Big Pine Key, to Key West.
A Key West restaurant with a passion for fine food & hospitality.
Hidden off the beaten path, just two blocks from the Southernmost Point and one block from world-famous Duval Street, is Milagro Restaurant and Bar, a true culinary gem. Run by husband and wife duo, award-winning Executive Chef Kevin Montoya and General Manager Maggie Montoya, Milagro is a labor of love with deep ties to scratch-made food, art, and the community.
Meet the owners, couple Kevin and Maggie, who pour their hearts and souls into Milagro. Veterans of the fine dining and hospitality industries, they use local seafood and produce in recipes they've spent years perfecting. These delicious flavors, combined with warm and attentive service, provide an unforgettable experience for their guests.
After working with Michelin Star Chefs for most of his career, Chef Kevin found his calling creating 5-star cuisine in a casual, bistro environment in Key West.
Translating to 'Miracle' in Spanish, Milagro embodies our love and passion for food, craft cocktails, and art.
