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.

These delicious flavors, combined with warm and attentive service, provide an unforgettable experience for their guests.
