Buzzy, country-chic taverna known for wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas paired with wine & beer.

Delicious food, enjoyable atmosphere, friendly staff. The soup of the day (Gumbo) was excellent and the meatball appetizer was so good that we came back just to get it again. “The Best Chicken Parmesan” lives up to its name. A hearty piece of chicken, well seasoned breading, and their outstanding red sauce, covered in cheese, was a sinful indulgence that I could not stop eating until the plate was clean. All the dinners were fantastic and gave a genuine feel of home cooked italian. The environment was fun complimented by exceptional staff that helped with any table needs.

Roostica Wood Fired Pizzeria is an absolute must-stop for us every time we’re in the Keys. Whether it’s lunch or dinner, it’s become part of our tradition — especially after a long day of fishing.
The wood-fired pizza is killer. I almost always order the Roostica specialty pizza with San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, sweet sausage, caramelized onions, mushrooms, and roasted peppers. It’s consistently cooked perfectly every time.
Yesterday we made an extra stop with friends and decided to load up on appetizers. We ordered the homemade meatballs over polenta and the Limoncello wood-fired wings (Jamaican-style) served with grilled onions and focaccia bread. The meatballs were hands down the best I’ve had in my entire life —The wings were just as impressive. If you order the wings with buffalo sauce be forewarned it’s spicy.
Roostica isn’t just a restaurant for us — it’s a tradition and a destination spot every single trip. We’ll absolutely keep coming back. Don’t change anything!

Not only does Roostica have the best pizza in key west, they have a full Italian menu offering high quality food. The oven is wood fired and the sandwich rolls are fresh. My favorite is the Sicilian style thick crust pizza

Busy night to eat!! The server was slow but very busy evening. Understandable. So -ordered the eggplant stack, and the individual gravy. The Meatball and sausage were excellent. So to me the sauce was not like i expected, but that is subjective to anyone. Great value and price. The eggplant was breaded perfectly. Ordered dessert cannoli and tiramisu. Excellent. Local hangout for sure.

Stopped here based on the reviews and I was a little disappointed. The beer, wine, and appetizers for happy hour were a great value but the pizza was lacking. It was the saddest Sicilian pizza I’ve ever had. It was lacking everything I know a Sicilian pizza to be. The service was ok as well and nothing spectacular.

Amazing Pizza in Key West! Roostica is really really good. Come in, sit at the bar. Talk to Noah… Who makes a killer Old Fashion, good conversation with random people. Had an amazing pizza, Hell’s Kitchen pizza. Next time I’m in the Keys, I’ll try something new off the menu but this was a really good pizza

There’s is nothing less than a 5 star review here. If I could I’d give it a million stars. This place is absolutely amazing and the food is the old world style Italian SOUL FOOD. From the moment you walk through the door you become part of their Famiglia. Thank you for the best meal ever !

Cafe Roostica was straight up amazing. The service was on point, the beer was ice cold, and the pizza… man… easily some of the best pizza I’ve had in a long time.
The crust was perfect, toppings were loaded, and everything came out hot and fresh. You can tell they actually care about the food.
Overall, I loved it here and I’ll definitely be back. If you’re in the area and want legit pizza with great service, this is the spot.

This restaurant was close to the resort we were staying on. The waitress was a gem! She was very quick to bring drinks, had our appetizers out within 10 minutes. All the food portions were huge! Half the plates were uneaten if not more then half. We sat a table but it felt so cramped. Only bad thing about the place is its kinda small and its packed. I will take it over an empty place with bad food! I highly recommend, you will not be disappointed!!
