Mixed reviews on this place. The drinks here are not made with any hard alcohol. Wine based dessert drinks and beer only, which is ok if that's what you like. My wife didn't like her drink, my beer was great. We went on our anniversary and the presentation of the dessert was fantastic. I ordered the red velvet cheesecake.

Better Than Sex has been one of my absolute favorite spots in Key West for years, and it never disappoints. The service is consistently exceptional, warm, attentive, and genuinely fun, while the food is always incredible. Their desserts are decadent in the best possible way, so definitely go hungry because you’ll want to try everything. Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, the experience feels special every single time. A must-visit when in Key West!

I visited this place the other day with a friend and we were blown away by the desserts. I tried the Cookie Nookie Pie and an Irish cream liqueur with caramel, both absolutely delicious. My friend had the Berry Bondage and the same drink as me. Everything was outstanding. Our server, Renee, was funny, professional, and easily one of the best servers in Key West. 💯 Highly recommended — a perfect spot for dessert after dinner.

Better Than Sex in Key West is an indulgent, romantic gem. I return every time I’m in town because it’s truly an experience. The atmosphere feels intimate and seductive—made for slow conversations, soft glances, and celebrating someone special. The desserts are heavenly, crafted with care, and the cocktails are unforgettable. It’s the kind of place where time slows down and the evening feels magical. For romance, ambiance, and exquisite flavors, this is the perfect date-night escape. Enjoy a light lunch earlier and come here ready to savor every moment.”

Sexy environment designed for couples. The desserts are large so come hungry. Also, they are reasonably priced, I thought they would be in the $20-$30 range, but they were the same price that you would get for dessert at a normal nice restaurant like $13 ish. We got the Apple pie dessert which was incredible and the Oreo bread pudding which was also amazing. Highly recommend this spot. I think if I went back, I’d prefer to go with more people so I can try more items. Gotta go when you’re in key west
