Azur is a hidden gem located many in a residential neighborhood many blocks away from the touristy areas (Duval St.) in Key West. We found this place by luck (we peaked into a quaint B&B and took a brochure on our way out which mentioned Azur)!
The restaurant is small and only has about 15 tables. There were no open tables when we first arrived so we waited outside on their front patio sipping Rose wine.
Once we were seated outside, we knew immediately what we were going to order since we had a sneak peak of the menu while waiting. The entire menu looked fabulous! Nan and Jess decided to get a BTL Crab Cake (lump sauteed crab cake on ciabatta roll with applewood smoked bacon, beefsteak tomatoes, and salsa verde mayo $14.95). It came with a side of orzo salad and the meal was truly one of the best sandwiches we've ever had. Bob had the "Pigs of Bay" sandwich (fennel roasted pork with shaved red onion, Fontina cheese, and salsa verde $11.50) which came with chips. He said it was outstanding.
Everything on the menu looked superb and we would recommend it to anyone visiting Key West who doesn't like TTs (tourist traps).
(We even loved the natural bath salts they had for us in the bathroom in lieu of hand soap!)
