More on Milagro Restaurant & Bar
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.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
