    Jerked Mahi Sandwich, with a side of coleslaw
    Dustin M. R.

    Flying in to Florida that morning, our Day 1 lunch was at The Fish House. Arriving at 11:30am on a Saturday, we were immediately seated and given menus. My wife picked the fried cracked conch and fries while I selected the Jamaican jerk mango mahi sandwich with a side of coleslaw, and we both had waters. We all enjoyed the nautical novelty theme of the dining room, and felt badly for whomever had to change the bulbs in the hundreds of lights running across the ceiling. The video 'port holes' were also a fresh new twist. The tables were very close together, and it was difficult to go to the restroom without bumping into someone. Speaking of the restrooms, my wife and I both hated the coconut salt soap you had to spoon up to wash your hands. Our food was ready pretty quickly, and everyone agreed it was good to very good. My blackened mahi was -as advertised- lightly blackened without being overpowered, and tasted very good, and likewise with the coleslaw. My wife said her fried cracked conch was flavourful and good, but not as tender as she has enjoyed elsewhere. Service was a bit slow, and getting water refills took some time, as did getting our bills. Pros: décor, fresh seafood selection, good to very good flavours Cons: fresh seafood is always expensive (even in the Florida), slow-ish service, everyone touching the same soap spoon in the restroom squicked us all out Overall we found The Fish House to be Good, and would return.

    Dinner in Key Largo

    Dec. 2025 We were here ten months ago and sat inside. It was crowded back then, and again this time during the Christmas season. This place has gotten some upgrades to their outdoor patio with a mobile bar with overly loud music and portable toilets which is nice since there is only one toilet inside for each gender, but the two servers outside were overwhelmed with people and weren't very attentive for the outside space. The lobster bisque was horrible with no lobster flavor and was an amalgamation of gelatinous roux. Do not get. The clam chowder was not fresh either and tasted like it was from a can. It just seems that the attention to detail on homemade items is just not there. I'll not waste your time reading about all the poor food preparation and how inattentive our server was. I'll not come back until I know their food and their servers are better. Might be a year or two as there are plenty of other places to enjoy a good meal.

    We came for an early dinner on a Saturday and were seated quickly. The staff work as a team to make sure all tables are attended, which is nice. The fish and steak we had were both cooked to order and nice and hot when they arrived, unfortunately the side dishes were not and the French fries in particular were cold. Overall, the food had a good flavor and the restaurant matched the laidback vibe of the Keys.

    Fresh Fish from local fisherman filleted in house and you can taste the difference. Classic fish house vibe and nautical decor, lively crowd this is not a quiet spot. No reservations its 1st come 1st served opens at 11am we arrived shortly thereafter and was seated promptly.Service was fast and friendly and our server went over the offerings clearly and plainly, he is also a charter boat captain which added to the authentic feel, once we ordered the food was served within 10 minutes. Our orders consisted of Yellowfin,Lobster Bisque,Ceviche, Shrimp, Fish Sandwich and fries all fresh, crispy and flavorful. Our Dessert the Key Lime Pie had us mmm-ing and ahhh-ing with every bite a great finish to our meal. They also have a Fish market available to pickup and take home some fresh seafood if able. Prices and mid to upper level but was well worth it for the quality and experience we had while visiting.

    We had an OK experience at The Fish House... lots of glitz and glitter, but we food the food mostly lacking... with a couple of exceptions! We had cocktails (coconut martini and Cadillac margaritas), both good. Appetizers included the crab cake and smoked fish appetizer... crab cake, average, fresh, but we prefer the NE lump crab style. Smoked fish, while unique, we found it underwhelming. Entrees included the fried seafood combo and the matecumbe yellowfin. Most of the fried seafood was old, overcooked. Exception the fried scallops, they were outstanding! Similarly, the yellowfin matecumbe was fantastic. Those two seafoods were exceptional. Desserts included coconut ice cream, frozen ice cube of coconut, and coconut key lime pie. Not sure what was on top of the pie, but the putty, spongy pink topped coconut was weird. A couple of hits, mostly misses. Cannot recommend you visit.

    The best key lime I've had!

    Came here specifically for the key lime pie! It was highly recommended! The ambiance here is really cute. A lot of people visiting but it worked like a fine oiled machine. Service was fast and they had more than enough workers to run the place. I ordered at the register. This was my first key lime in the keys. And it didn't disappoint! Most people don't like the meringue but I LOVED IT. Can't wait to get another the next trip!

    Menu!

    We stopped for lunch on our way down to Key West. The gravel parking is plentiful and sets the stage for the tasty lunch we had. The restaurant is vintage and you really feel the atmosphere as you walk to the door. The inside is cool and dark. The waiter greeted us with a smile and pointed us to a booth quickly! The menu is just what I expected from a highway adjacent, watering hole in Key Largo! We quickly agreed on the fried clam strips and the peel and eat shrimp. They were both delicious! I had the iced tea, but the cold beer selection looked very tempting. The food arrived quickly and it was delish! When we walked out we were full and happy facing the long drive to the Southernmost point in the US!

    What is great spot to spot at in Key Largo!! Right of 1. Cozy place, decorated with lots of art work that is for sale. Service was very fast and our food was fantastic. We both had Matecumbe, one with yellow tail snapper the other with Mahi Mah, what a great combination; also some raw oysters. To finish it off we had the coconut lime pie. I believe that is the best I have had. Great place to stop in!!!

    Our catch
    Damien T.

    Don't let the looks fool you -- like most spots in the Keys, it's a little dated inside, but the service and food more than make up for it. We walked in with fresh fish from our trip, and before we even sat down, our waitress grabbed it and got things rolling. She gave us a bunch of options for how we wanted it cooked, which was super helpful. We went with blackened tuna, grilled mahi with lemon butter, and fried snapper -- and they absolutely nailed it. Everything was cooked perfectly. If you're fishing in the Keys, this is the spot to bring your catch. They'll cook it up exactly how you like it. Super chill vibe, great food, and good service. Would definitely go back.

    Key lime pie
    A.c. S.

    Host was fantastic, service was attentive, atmosphere was home in the wall - the makings of a great experience! Had appetizer, main course and desert listed in ranking: Blackened grouper w side of potato and corn - 10/10 Conch fritters - 8/10 (only negative was more conch) Key lime pie - 6/10 (didn't have a zing to it) Fantastic overall experience, would recommend!

    Yellow snapper prepared Hemingway, Matacumbe and blackened!
    Kelly A.

    We brought our freshly caught yellow tail snapper and they cooked it for us. Made us feel very welcome and sat us right away. Service was top notch and very friendly. We each had our fish prepared differently and it was all delicious. Highly recommended!

    Buffalo shrimp
    Stephanie B.

    Food is always excellent and FRESH. Yellowfin tuna or buffalo shrimp appetizers. Great service, ask For Q! Peanut butter martini is a dream, yum! Love the laid back atmosphere of the keys but with delicious fresh food that never disappoints. This is a regular stop for us whenever in the keys.

    We came here as recommended by our bellman. He wasn't wrong! This place is amazing. We had fish stuffed with crab and ceviche. The yellow tail and mahi were delicious. Service was fast and amazing. So great we came back in the same day for dinner.

    I had the New England clam chowder, and was one of the best chowder I've ever had. I also had a shrimp dinner that was excellent.

You have to go on their social media to get the password and when you're approaching the address, it is indistinguishable from a basic warehouse or storefront. But when you drive around the back, where there is Apple parking, you'll be surprised to find a completely different view. As you go through the motions required to get in, we finally approach the entry door and enter a dimly lit beautifully, decorated open space with a bar and several comfortable couches and tables. They even have a small table on honoring soldiers that I've died in the line of duty. The servers welcome you as you come in and are very attentive throughout your entire visit. Everything on the menu sounded so good that we simply ordered several appetizers so we could try a bit of everything. Each one was better than the next. I realize that Key Largo is commonly known for oceanfront, dining and delicious seafood, but this little spot is well worth visiting

It is a little tricky to find it, once you find the parking lot, it is super confusing as to where you enter. There are two floors and multiple doors. Finally someone directed us up the stairs and to the back of the building. We were greeted and given menus fairly quickly, but it took an extraordinarily long time to get our food that day. The hollandaise sauce was atypical as it tasted like there was cheese in it. The smoked salmon on a bagel tasted okay, but fell apart when it was picked up. The breakfast burrito lacked a lot of flavor.The blueberry pancake, although slightly overcooked, was actually very good. The bacon and fried potatoes were not crisp, as I prefer them. So if you like crispy bacon and fried potatoes, ask for that when placing your order. The windows and floors are dirty and the women's bathroom had a round hole with a dirty sock stuck in it on the floor. I actually tripped over it. And the bathroom could have been much cleaner. With a few improvements, Sharkeys could be more appealing to tourists going through and visiting the Keys.
