We came here after leaving Isla Morada. We were starving and some of our friends suggested it. Once again they are pet friendly and that's the main reason we decided to eat there. My husband got a pound of shrimp which he devoured. And I got the shrimp linguine. Which I'm a sucker for. Everything was delicious. The views were amazing and max really liked seeing the fake shark they have on the bottom . Everyone was really nice especially to max. They brought him a bowl of water which he said was top tier. You can also rent jet ski and I'm pretty sure you can get to the same bar from there but we will do that next time.

This was next door to our hotel so we decided to give it a whirl. So good! We sat out on the balcony area which wasn't the best idea since it was cold and windy, but it was a beautiful view! I had the shrimp po'boy and my husband had the wahoo BLT. Both were delicious! Service was great too! Definitely recommend!

Chicharrones with Fried Yuca

You just can't get any more than this for a 'local place'. We sat in the long outdoor bar facing the water. The scene was awesome, picturesque! We weren't wearing bright day glow clothes with fanny packs, and Walt Disney sunglasses, but definitely felt like we were outsiders. Everybody was super nice to us, but it's just that feeling you have by looking around and seeing how other people are interacting. It was really just a perfect place on the water with cold beer. We were there for their AWESOME happy hour offerings, the HH menu on their website is not accurate. Here is an overview of what we had to eat from best first; -Lump Crabmeat covered tostones-AWESOME!! -Blackened Fish Nachos -Dirty French Fries -Pork Chicharrones & Fried Yuca -Hot Chicken Wings (I was sooo disappointed with them as they were meaty, cooked perfectly but NO flavor ) I highly recommend going here and will definitely be back!!

Merry Christmas Eve!! Holy mackerel they were busy and on point with their delicious food!! Our server Ferdanda was attentive and kind and helpful for all five of us. I ordered the Wahoo a la parilla and it was incredible. My server nor her manager had any idea what the "yellow" rice was. Or how it is made. A little annoying but the rest of our meal was really terrific. I would be happy to return over and over again!!

The million dollar view of the islamorada sand bar was outstanding with a cold Aperol spritz in my hand. The fish dip was excellent and the cucumber and onions were crisp and the chips did not fall apart when scooping up the fish. The waitress was kind and helpful. Food and drinks came out quick.

Key Lime Pie
Vicki A.

This place is excellent! I wish I could go back right now. The Great: The whole fried fish and the Key Lime pie The Good: The cocktails were excellent The Bad: It was unseasonably cold that day. They just need more heaters for these strange times. The Ugly: NA All of the food was enjoyable and the view was nice. The server was a little slow to come back, but we didn't mind, but I can see how some would want a little more check-ins. The building is neat as well.

Platter
Emi M.

We made a pit stop leaving Key West and we are so glad we did, this place was amazing. We waited about 15 minutes but it was fine because we sat in the outside area and waited for our table. The food was great and fresh, we had the octopus and it was the best octopus we have ever had. We also ordered a platter with shrimp, fish and calamari and it was very well seasoned and fried. The ambiance was great and our server was super friendly and very attentive. We are definitely going back when we return to the keys.

Key Lime Shrimp Bowl
Raquel T.

WAHOOOOO Great service, great food, great drinks. The vibes of wahoos are perfect, breezy outdoors & a fun photo op with the shark! Anything seafood you can't go wrong here. Two of our 5 people got the mahi tacos and they disappeared in the blink of an eye. When in the Florida Keys, I had to opt for the Key Lime Shrimp Bowl, right? Key lime butter, sautéed shrimp, jasmine rice, tortilla chips, bacon and fresh corn salsa ‍ Super filling but still very light!

The mahi sandwich was fresh and the bun was soft and delicious. The fries were crispy and a perfect temperature. The pina colada had graham cracker crumbs lining the rim of the glass. The waiter was attentive and friendly. The view of the crystal blue water was to die for!

Skirt steak & shrimp Alfredo pasta
Angel G.

We chose Wahoo's after noticing several Yelp reviewers rave about the Key lime pie, and I'm glad we listened. The Key Lime Colada was excellent and the perfect way to start our meal. We also enjoyed the conch fritters, which were crisp, flavorful, and a great Keys appetizer. For entrees, I had the fried grouper sandwich with sweet potato fries, while my wife enjoyed the shrimp Alfredo and skirt steak. Everything was well prepared, generously portioned, and served by a friendly and attentive team. But the star was the Key lime pie. As someone who learned to make Key lime pie at the Hyatt Key West in the mid-1990s, I have a particular fondness for the classic custard-and-meringue style. Wahoo's version was outstanding: light custard, beautiful meringue, and a subtly nutty crust. After trying several highly regarded pies during this trip, this was our favorite. Excellent food, great service, and the best Key lime pies we've had this trip! Highly recommended.

Fried fish
Dan S.

We loved the experience here. Service from Pablo was perfect. Our table was right up against the railing and we had a perfect view. The outdoor dining tables were nicely spaced apart. The Little Neck clams were delicious, and the bread was even better. The fried fish was crispy and fresh, but could have had more depth of flavor. They claim to have the best Key Lime pie north of Key West. Many other tables ordered it. OK, it was good, real good, but that that good.

This is a great pit stop on the drive up or down to the Keys. Below the restaurant is a dock that boats are chartered out of. The views from the second floor, where it is situated, are spectacular. My friends and I sat outside. The food we ordered was all well prepared. The service was great. The pigeons that kept coming to try to pilfer a meal were not. However, other than that, this is a perfectly good option for a nice lunch.

Conch Chowder
LJ H.

We were so hungry from driving our way back from Key West to Miami and there was so much traffic, we decided to stop by this place to catch a bite to eat to give traffic some time to get better. Walking in, the place was big. It had both indoor and outdoor seating. I like the decorations. Had that dive bar type feel with all the dollar bills stapled to the walls and ceilings. The servers were great. They did check up on us often and made sure our drinks were refilled. The food looked good, but it was either too salty or wasn't warm enough. Both my wife and I ordered both chowders to try them out. My wife's chowder was too salty and my chowder was more on the warm to lukewarm side. The ceviche was good. Had good flavors and leaned on the sweater side since it had pineapples. The key lime pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but was a little shocked it got delivered with our dinner and not after. The kids meals are a good deal. I was shocked with how big the portions are for them. Other than that, it was ok. Would I come back, probably not. I do like the area it's in. The family liked looking into the pier where the ships were docked and looking at the big fish that were swimming. Too bad you can fish there.

As we drove south through the Keys, I noted the bright teal and yellow facade of Islamorada Brewery…read moreand Distillery. I knew just where we needed to stop on the way back to our hotel. SPACE: Everything about the space just exudes the Keys life. In side there's a variety of seating including community tables for larger groups and both high top and low top seating. While we were seeking air conditioning and a reprieve from the August heat, Islamorada Brewery and Distillery offers up a huge patio space with misting fans and lawn games galore. Neat! SERVICE: I'll start by saying that Islamorada Brewery and Distillery is a counter service joint. So when you're ready for a pour you want to belly up to the bar. The beertenders were super friendly and approachable. They made great suggestions and tempted me with their gram worthy flight. SIPS: We both opted for pour of the coconut lime blonde ale - No Wake Zone. It was light, crushable, and wonderfully tropical. In addition we also sipped on their coconut scooter vodka. Whoa! That could be dangerous - it was so smooth. SUSTENANCE: Islamorada Brewery and Distillery offers a up a decent assortment of curbside eats from their in-house (or would it be on-site) food truck! Yum! While we didn't order any eats, it's nice to have something on site. Islamorada Brewery and Distillery was just what my craft brew loving heart needed. I'd highly recommend checking them out when in The Keys. Cheers, Islamorada! **PRO TIP: Don't forget to grab a little something from their large merch inventory to remind you of your brewventure in The Keys!

Loved this place! When in Islamorada for a friend's destination wedding a bunch of the guys hit up…read morethe brewery which is also a distillery. Gotta love the chance to enjoy some local cold craft brews and boozy mixed drinks. Great atmosphere and staff. Tasty food, flavored shots, a variety of beer types. Bright and laid back spot which represents the area its in. Got to sample the beers first and also had some flights. Terrific outside beer garden seating area which is very Florida Keys style and vibe. We had a wonderful time here. If passing through on way to Key West its worth stopping by.

I got sooo many recommendations to go here, I had to with my wife for our 24th Wedding Anniversary…read more I'm giving this place 5 stars overall even though I had 1 major disappointment-the miserable young woman hostess who made us feel like we were bothering her by wanting to go into the restaurant. No smile, No congeniality, Little eye contact, Did Not listen and I had to repeat myself. The reception we received would have made us turn around and go somewhere else, if I hadn't had so many recommendations. OK, now the reasons why I have given them 5 stars. We were quoted a 45 minute wait (about 7:30pm on Tuesday night) but luckily some bar stools opened up AS SOON as we walked in and so we sat at the bar (they offered their full menu), and Fernando, who was EXTREMELY busy, greeted us with a smile and very pleasant demeanor. He prepared our drinks, which were delicious. Right next to him and working the 'Service Bar' was the Manager on Duty: Lauren. She was very pleasant and engaged with us whenever she had the opportunity. She even helped us with menu suggestions, unfortunately, we spoke about one of their nightly specials, the Shrimp Piccata with Gnocchi, but they were sold out when we tried to order it with Fern. So we had a great experience at the bar, and here's the food review; -Fried Whole Yellowtail. Delicious! Presented like a picture and cooked perfectly! Loved the sauce, Pico, Jasmine Rice & Fried tostones. -Citrus/Beet Salad with Whipped Goat Cheese, Quinoa, Nuts, Arugula tossed in a light vinaigrette. All I can say: "Empty Plate Club"...DELICIOUS!! -Now the BEST plate: PEI Mussels. THIS WAS THE BEST PREPARATION OF MUSSELS-I HAVE EVER HAD! The mussels were fresh but the sauce was a "Mic Drop"!!! I split the mussel shell in half, and scooped the mussel shell into the AMAZING sauce and ate it like I was slurping a fresh oyster! After the mussels were finished I ate the rest of the sauce WITH A FORK!!! The sauce was delicious, thick, with garlic and hot spice. I attacked the plate and forgot to take a picture...sorry! We ended our meal with a tasty piece of delicious Key Lime Pie. GREAT EXPERIENCE AND RECOMMEND AND WILL COME BACK!!! Lauren, great job, the place ran clean, efficient and professional!

The Paloma cocktail was excellent and so was the Calamari appetizer. I also ordered the featured fish taco and it was disappointing. The fish was excellent, however the soft taco shell was unable to hold up and I had to use a knife and fork. Other than the fish, it was so so. My husband had the burger which he has always loved here. The burger itself is still good, but the bun is not. I guess everyone is scaling back on quality but not prices. I
