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!! read more

The seafood buffet apparently closed 2 months ago . No scallops no snow crab legs. We ordered the Mahi basket with fries. My wife had coleslaw. I had yellow rice . The only place in the island that overcooked the mahi. Dry all the way through. It was not a good experience. On the opposite end the home cut fries we're not cooked all the way and served lukewarm . So they were mealy and unpleasant. I sampled 4-5 from different areas just to make sure and it was just bad. The yellow rice was tasteless but extremely sticky. It would stick to anything it touched like the bottom of the fork or my hand or just anything. It made me wonder if they put in an additive for it to Clump or just didn't wash the rice. That would explain the presentation, a giant half dome serving from a scoop. My wife really enjoyed the coleslaw and she absolutely loved the Key Lime colada drink . Otherwise it was just the worst dining that we've had in 5 days in Islamorada read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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!! read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

Don't let the starting fool you! Stop, scrolling, you've found your place to eat! Friendly, attentive service. The signature espresso martini was okay, I opted for a glass of wine after finishing it. My husband enjoyed his margarita and the party we were with said their old fashions hit the spot! The shrimp and crab chowder was hearty and delicious. I enjoyed the Caesar salad. I had boiled shrimp! I was so pleased when I saw it was deveined! Most restaurants won't do that! Bonus, it wasn't dried out! The cocktail sauce needed more horseradish for heat. My husband had the wahoo sandwich. He loved it. It looked so thick! The key lime had an amazing thick graham cracker crust! It was yummy, but not crazy tart. If it had been more tart, then perhaps it would be one of the best pies we'd had on vacation, it was close though. We'd eat here again!! read more

I am in the Keys almost once a week. I've driven by Wahoo's a 1000 times. I never stopped because I figured it was just a "touristy " place and wouldn't be good.... Big mistake! The food is legit! Service was great and the Key Lime Pie is the best I've had in the Keys. Seriously. Great food and the pie! Omg. Do not miss it. read more

Visited on a Sunday early evening. Place was pretty busy, but we were able to find seating at the outside bar. The bartender was very friendly and took good care of us. She even threw in a free slice of Key Lime Pie since she got backed up towards the end of the meal. The drinks were tasty, and the food was pretty solid. Looked like a mixture of vacationers and locals, which was good to see. read more

10/10 experience!!! The views, delicious drinks (including two fantastic local beers my husband loved), and incredible food. We had the grouper piccata sandwich and the shrimp quesadilla. We could TASTE how fresh the fish was! Our server was fantastic and the food came out super quickly. We took a slice of key lime pie to go and it's officially ruined all others! read more

Food was mediocre. More importantly, the server was given credit card without viewing the bill. About 20 minutes later he returned with the payment app and after we added the tip, signed it, he said, I am so sorry but I have lost your credit card! The host? We asked him if he was aware of the lost card and he just said, yeah we looked for it but could not find it. No apology but we gave him our contact info in case they did find it. Card was then cancelled. They could have cared less! and said we've been looking for it. But, no apology or explanation. read more

Manager is rude, sat down other customers behid us. food is ok no big deal. Never coming back here again.

We've been stopping here for over 5 years, we sit up top with a beautiful view and a very attentive young lady that runs the bar, drink's and view are the best, last month we stopped and had the wahoo bites, tasted great but we both got sick to our butts 2 hours later, we thought we had a Little bug, today on the way back from Key West, we stopped in as usual, we again ordered the wahoo bites and a couple bears, no sooner do we get home we both (not together) blow up the toilet, I know they had a change of management within the last year, I'm thinking maybe the kitchen isn't running as smoothly as it should be and sauces are left out too long, it's a shame, will continue to stop in at wahoo's to see the young lady up top in the open bar for the view and drinks, but we'll have to find another place to get a bite to eat! I hate when people leave bad reviews, but I felt this one needed to be told, I'm giving Bar and overall service five stars The food (what we are) 1 read more

We have been coming to Islamorada for years and usually have a group of staple places but we decided to stop by here because our son thought it looked fun and we really enjoyed it! I was really impressed by the service and you can't beat the view. The food was also pretty good, and really hit the spot after a day on the water. I had the mahi mahi fish tacos, my son had a chicken tenders basket and my husband had a salad and mashed potatoes. Also got a slice of key lime pie to go that was amazing! Definitely recommend! read more

Beautiful spot and great food! Me and my boyfriend both ordered the Wahoo BLTs which were delicious and very filling (I could only finish half of mine). The fish was perfectly cooked and very fresh. There was the perfect amount of bacon lettuce tomato and sauce as well. It's right on the water and has a great view. There's also indoor seating with AC. Our waiter Mr. Nike was the absolute best! He was very kind, always checking in on us and cracking jokes. I'd definitely recommend checking Wahoo's out if you're in town and ask for Mr.Nike! read more

The view is exceptional. Dining on the top deck overlooking the harbor, the bridge, boat traffic, and the distant sandbar creates a memorable and enjoyable experience. The service is consistently friendly and attentive. The food was decent overall. The mahi tacos were average, while the mahi sandwich was notably better. The fries were high quality and well prepared. Although the prices run slightly high for the food itself, the setting and views justify the premium. We have visited several times and will continue to return. We especially enjoy strolling through the marina, admiring the boats, and taking in the ocean scenery after eating. read more
