Island Grill - Desert menu - Seafood Near Me - Islamorada, Florida

So glad we made the decision to eat here! As you walk in you get this great breeze from the open windows. It was a very hot day, so the breeze felt great. Now, let's get to the food. I ordered the seafood pasta with Alfredo sauce. Unfortunately, they did not have a garlic wine sauce, which I thought would have made this dish so much better. They only offered Marinara or Alfredo sauce, so I selected the Alfredo. So glad I did, it was delicious. My husband ordered the Fried Snapper and he loved it. It was cooked perfectly. read more

Island Grill - Happy full moon - Seafood Near Me - Islamorada, Florida

Sketchy and perhaps fraudulent. Went for lunch on New Year's Eve day. Grouper Reuben dry, children's Mac and cheese cold and watery. The biggest problem I have is I'm pretty sure the hog fish I ordered was haddock or something similar. We spearfish and eat fresh hog fish all the time and this really didn't appear to be or taste like hogfish. We could have gotten a buzz from our waiter's alcohol breath. View was nice read more

Didn't love that the ahi bowl (felt like the seaweed was kinda slimy). Could deal with it cuz I wasn't very hungry anyway. However, the owner or manager came around and asked, I was honest, and he couldn't care any less....WHATSOEVER. As a restaurant owner, that was disappointing. I'm accustomed to making things right, by offering something else or whatever. Our party of eight wasn't offered separate checks into parties of two, which was also frustrating. Oysters were kinda tasteless. Old fashioned was meh. I think everything else was ok. Automatic 20% tip lends to lackadaisical service, I think. read more

We did not have a good experience. We got there early and when we were seated the sun was in our eyes and It took a long while before we could get someone to lower the shades. The conch fritters were pretty good but fish dinners were awful. I had grilled mahi and it was a very thin piece and dried out like cardboard. The coleslaw was served warm which can make a person sick. my husband had seared snapper. It wasn't cooked right. He didn't enjoy it at all. I Do not recommend this restaurant. read more

THE APPETIZERS WERE (Conch fritters, fried calamari & mahi nachos - OMG) were beyond delicious, the entrees were amazing (Lobster Mac n Cheese). The price was great. LAUREN (the waitress) was practically perfect in every way! We will be coming back for more!! read more

This place is delicious! And let me tell you, they do not skimp on the seafood or steak. Everything was loaded! So good! Will def be back! read more

Definitely 5 stars! Shane and Josslyn gave 5 stars service. They made us feel very special! The customer service was top notch . Definitely delicious food and drinks. We will come back 100 percent. The ambiance was relax and comfortable as well! Awesome place! Highly recommended! Order the snapper, you will not be disappointed! read more

Cute little spot off the Highway. This place should be called "on island time" instead of Island Grill. Extremely slow service and limited staff. Mahi Reuben sandwich is awful I can't express enough to NOT order it - although fries are good. Good cocktails and pours and waiter is nice just overworked. read more

Great food! We each got the special for 35 dollars and you got to choose one appetizer each and one entree each! Our server was also great! Definitely recommend! read more

This was one of the few locations near my hotel that was within biking distance and didn't require crossing a super busy bridge. I was hesitant to go because the reviews were so so... but after a long morning in the sun and my husband stealing away with the car, I biked over. I got the scoop that the new sushi chef is from Miami and runs a business within the business. The sushi is BOMB! I can't comment to the other food, but I'd highly recommend the soosh! read more

This is the worst place to eat in the keys. It was a group of us and our food took over an hour, orders wrong, and honestly just a waste of money. 0/10 will never come again. read more

Great location on water. Food is expensive & my mahi sandwich was not very good, no flavor at all & did not seem like it was made as described, not sure it was on sour dough bread & did not taste any cheese. Service was okay but there were some communication issues. We did Happy hour in the bar which was good, dinner in restaurant & attended free show outside. The show was just okay, "Frank Sinatra tribute", & drinks outside seemed watered down. read more

The drink I could not even finish, cucumber margarita with hot peppers on the rim. Not a lot of flavor & over spiced. My salad The Coral Reef, had very hard & chewy corn. The lettuce needed to be cut & the tuna was fair. The seaweed salad & salsa was good. My friend loved her prime rib, said it was perfect. It is the special on Wednesday. Of the 3 places we have eaten this week, sadly this has been my least favorite. It is nice being able to have a relaxed atmosphere & be on the water. It started picking up around 7pm. read more

Waited for this place to reopen for a long time! Great location in the upper keys with nice views. The food today was just bland! No other way to describe it. It was lacking the love it needed. While eating the tacos I realized it had the same taste with every bite. The tuna nachos were better but nothing to get you to come back. The wait staff was struggling to keep up. Our server was training a new employee but in my option he's not going to make it . Sorry but this is my honest opinion on the food and service we received. Thank god the drinks were at least cold and on a positive note it's dog friendly! Live laugh and move on . read more

This was the perfect lunch for another beautiful day in Miami. How blessed are we...sunny AF with a nice breeze while other states are just sucking right now. It's the perfect blend of tranquility and serenity. You have a choice to sit inside (inside is an open air space) or outdoors on their small beach. With ocean views and jazz music playing sitting outdoors was the only vibe we were looking for. You can pull up by car or boat here too. Seating in their beach area had 2 options. To either sit at a table that was built in between 2 trees (providing shade) or your own small table complete with umbrella. Our waiter today was Shane. Shane was everything. He was funny, polite, and attentive. He brought over our drinks quick while we went through the menu. And omg I love the menu. Every single appetizer I could've had. From the salmon tradition, the tartare (fishing your choice) to the crab cakes, sushi rolls, or conch fritters. And that's just naming a few. The menu continues to lobster rolls, seafood pastas, blackened chicken dishes to even steak and fish tacos. The variety is above appealing and the quality of food top notch! There were signs everywhere regarding their famous tuna nachos so of course that was a must and holy s@&! The freshness of the tuna was impeccable. The seaweed salad and dressings combined made the perfect starter. It was fabulous! For our main meal I continued with some more tuna pan seared and blackened on a crisp cesar salad. The portion of the tuna was very thick and tender. He had the mahi Rubens and didnt even save me a bite. damm him. lol. He also mentioned the fish on his sandwich was fresh. We were more than happy with our whole time here. The ambiance, food, and server just all made it the perfect Sunday. To end it off, Shane brought us a piece of this decadent chocolate layer cake with 2 spoons..yeah there was nothing left. We had the absolute best service here on every level and can't wait to come back again! read more

OMG!! The best! I don't understand the 3.5 star rating they have because this place is amazing! They have great prices and the food was so fresh. Tuna Nachos were the best I've ever had.

Stopped for lunch and was not impressed. Drinks were terrible and the food was not much better. Wait staff didn't seem to care either

Small place with amazing service, good food and a nice view. Looking out over the waterway and mangroves with a breeze is a great way to end the day. Draft beer and a cucumber margarita to drink and tuna poke bowl and Buffalo shrimp Po boy to eat. Shane was such a good and attentive waiter. Place was busy which is what drew us in. read more

For the amount of money put into this place to fix it up after the hurricane you would think attention to detail would be better. The keys is full of these Tiki places on canals. Most of them are disappointing. Half the lettuce in my salad was rotten! I can't believe that left the kitchen! There's obviously 4 employees in this place that need to get their eyes examined, the manager, the waiter, the kitchen expediter and last but not least, the person working the salad station! My wife and I live down here and have become used to this type of disappointment with local restaurants. So much so, we don't even complain or point out the obvious lack of attention and quality. We just don't go back. If rotting food is being served the staff doesn't give a damn. Just imagine what else is going on behind closed doors?We very rarely try new places because of this very reason and go out to eat far less than we did. Really getting tired of this kind of crap! read more

Love this restaurant! Great vibe, great atmosphere. Can sit inside on the deck or outside on the beach. Tuna Nachos are an absolute must -- so, SO GOOD. read more

Food was horrible and we could tell the stone crab had gone bad the moment they sat it down (they did comp it). Somehow the drinks were also terrible and not drinkable. Not surprisingly got sick after. The waitress was very nice. read more

We had lunch here on the recommendation of a fishing guide who we later learned doesn't eat out much. We should have eaten elsewhere. One of my husband's fish tacos was made with rancid mahi. Didn't pass the smell or taste test. The beans served with it tasted canned. My sushi was grocery-store quality and the portion was small but at least it was edible. The end for me was the woman the restaurant allows to accost diners by coming around asking you to buy toys for some purported "charity." We tried to politely wave her away, but she refused to leave until she finished her solicitation. To treat captive diners this way is not acceptable. Shame on management. Solicitors should be required to stay outside. read more

A solid meh. I was so excited to get the best of the keys on my plate. I guess I should have ordered the tuna nachos The conch fritters: first conch is a chewy clam to begin with but the fitters were doughy on the inside, and one one I hit a mouthful of grit. Grit should never ever find its way into a fritter. Sorry boys-that was a major oops. The mahi Reuben. Shame on me for ordering it. Mahi is such a gentle fish, it was overshadowed by all the Reuben junk. It wasn't for me. The key lime pie-I didn't get the chance to ask if it was made in house. I had bar seating and my bartender/server was back and forth in different areas. The pie was good. The green goo they decorated my plate with was not-I don't know what flavor it was supposed to be but it tasted old. I tasted it on its own multiple times. Thankfully I won't base my Florida Keys Foodie Adventure on this one place but I was disappointed in my $50 meal read more

Dinner last night was wonderful! The stafff is very welcoming and live music was a bonus. Our party enjoyed prime rib which was cooked to perfection as well as sides- large portions too. We also had the mahi mahi imperial trio - shrimp, crab cake and large piece of mahi mahi and chicken pasta Alfredo- both very well presented, Our server Emma was terrific- great personality and great server- Will definitely return . read more

The food was so bad, and it was expensive!! I ordered what our waitress referred to as "Catch of the Day"- which was grouper. The grouper was thin, dry and bland- did not taste fresh...actually, I would bet it was frozen considering that grouper isn't even in season... our server was friendly and kind, but the food served was very subpar. The location isn't great either- there is some water view, but it's narrow and the mangroves are close so it's not an ocean front feeling... Def skip this place- save your money. read more

Great place. Tuna nachos were awesome. We always try to stop here when we go to the keys.

Awesome food however be careful about their "Happy Hour". They are intentionally deceptive. A few observations: only 6 bar stools are eligible for happy hour . Went there last night and asked for happy hour and . All beers were 1/2 off. Wine for $2 (except Chardonnay!!). Bar tender did not tell us this and they charged $10/glass vs $2 expectation. Very deceptive. Sad that business like this lack moral integrity! read more

Island Grill - There advertised promotion. - Seafood Near Me - Islamorada, Florida

Just left this place and I had to write a review immediately. We came in 40 min before closing a party of 10 and the young hostess greeted us very nice. We sat inside and our server Ronald was phenomenal, the food was amazing and I must say everyone was very nice and kid friendly. As a matter of fact everyone was really nice. The drinks were strong and good specially my white sangria with strawberries inside. The poke nachos, cheese quesadillas, coconut shrimp, baby back ribs, blackened mahi and the filet mignon were a hit. Not only was the food delicious but the presentation was also on point. Thanks chef! Second time coming and will definitely return. These people are busting their asses off working to make us have a great night. My 22 month old was crying and Ronald came and gave him a paper with crayons. That really helped. Thank you guys so much!! read more

Island Grill - outdoor seating facing water - Seafood Near Me - Islamorada, Florida

Pretty miserable experience here. Children running around screaming everywhere, adults not caring. Ordered a burger and a chicken quesadilla (Apetizer). Burger was cold and sloppy and overcooked. Digusting. The quesadilla had barely any chicken and tasted like soap. The bill was over $50 (we only ordered water for drinks too....). Save your time and money, stay far away from this place. read more

My family and I got stuck in the Keys tonight by an accident that stopped traffic for awhile. We had passed another restaurant we've eating at before and decided to settle on going there. When we doubled back, we saw the Island Grill sign and decided to give it a shot instead. Apparently, during our day of nature walking and picking up trash, we please some old forgotten gods who decided to gift us with this place. A beautiful little restaurant right on the water, incredibly friendly and prompt staff ( despite what you normally get in that area of the Keys....yeah...I said it), and an amazing food experience. We ordered with our eyes and on our waitress's recommendation. We were about to pop when we were done. I ordered the Black and Zola burger, I learned that I'm not a fan of Gorgonzola, but that burger was so good, it didn't matter! The Calamari and Coconut shrimp were inhaled by my kids, the French fries were perfection! My wife's hog fish was so good I tried to steal it from her and received several whacks for my effort. Their Tuna Nachos are not a boast, but a well backed up promise. I look forward to my next Keys visit because I will come straight back here! read more

Eat outside and enjoy the view. The coconut shrimp were fantastic- shrimp tacos - good size, great tasking Shrimp but missing a flavor - maybe more chipotle Mayo. Bloody Mary's are made with V8 - I like them a bit thicker tomato based. Fantastic service and friendly. read more
