Key West is one of Florida's most significant cultural hubs. They are one of the most iconic parts of Florida and, as such, it makes sense that the southernmost city would be home to one of the state's most iconic restaurants.

The popular travel website [Trips to Discover](https://www.tripstodiscover.com/) recently ranked the [most iconic restaurants in Florida](https://www.tripstodiscover.com/iconic-restaurants-in-florida/), and four of them are in South Florida. These are [Joe’s Stone Crab](https://joesstonecrab.com/) in Miami Beach, [Versailles Cuban Restaurant](https://www.versaillesrestaurant.com/) in Miami, [Jaxson’s Ice Cream Parlor & Restaurant](https://www.facebook.com/jaxsonsicecreamparlor/) in Dania Beach, and [Blue Heaven](https://blueheavenkw.com/) in Key West. 

If you've been following FloridaKeys.me for a while, then you may have noticed that I mentioned Blue Heaven in quite a few posts. Blue Heaven is one of my favorite spots to grab a meal in Key West, so I was delighted to see that they made this list! Their atmosphere is amazing and their food is fantastic. They have breathtaking key lime pie!

Trips to Discover wrote the following about Blue Heaven:

*"There’s no better place to start your key lime pie tasting adventure than at Blue Heaven in Key West. Sitting in the historic Bahama Village neighborhood, this funky shop has been serving delightful slices of pie for over 20 years. Enjoy the live music and laid-back vibes, then sample the much-loved slice of key lime pie. Made daily with fresh squeezed limes and a graham cracker crust, it is served with a heaping portion of meringue on top." *
