El Meson De Pepe's Restaurant & Bar
Located in the popular Old Town neighborhood of Key West and next to Mallory Square, El Meson de Pepe has been crafting authentic Cuban food and drinks for more than 30 years. We are not booking any parties or private events at this time.
Our proud history begins in the small town of Yaguajay, Cuba, where Pepe Diaz was born. As a young man, Pepe began cooking to avoid working in the fields. It was in those early teenage years that he found his passion for food.He set out to begin his career in Spain, working in popular “Meson” restaurants and refining his skills. He started formulating a vision for his future, moving to America and opening his own Meson restaurant. That’s when Pepe moved from Spain to Miami, Florida in the year 1973. Upon his arrival, he started working at La Esquina De Tejas, a popular local restaurant, where he had the pleasure of preparing a delicious meal for President Ronald Reagan. Pepe’s personal life also began to flourish with his wife Cachi and moved to Key West with sons Jose Augusto, Jose Manuel, and daughter Thania.
