Restaurants in Islamorada

“Twisted Shrimp was delicious. Thomas (the waiter) was a hoot. My party of 4 all had something different. We also shared two desserts. It was all good. Indoor seating is limited. We ate outdoors and was visited by an Iguana in the tree. (sweet!) I recommend anything on the menu. Great place to eat!”

“Food is so authentic and delicious! Service is excellent! I would definitely try this restaurant if you are in the area!”

“Olo was wonderful!!! He made the night amazing! Thank you we will be back!!”

“Wally was an outstanding server. I would give more stars if I could.. Our food was excellent, and the dessert was out of this world! They even catered to our dog!”

“Our favorite by far.. We miss the food and the people working there when we are not in Islamorada . Be back soon!”

“Ana-Michelle was our host and Danny also.
Took my husband to the Keys for his 60th birthday and a Churrasco steak is what he wanted. We got SO much more!
Ana-Michelle stood in that and delivered!!’
Danny thank you for the hospitality.
The music also could have kept me there all night. We ate well, listened to good music, sang and danced in our seats!!

Thank YOU!!!”

“Live music, good drinks, a fire pit, many outdoor seats, great drinks. The atmosphere is very relaxing. We really enjoyed the love music and walking along the boardwalk area. They added toech/tiki lights and a lot of remodeling. Very nice job remodeling everything here. The Sticky Steak skewers were very good.”

“We were on our way back to Jax and stopped at our favorite breakfast/lunch spot! Once again a winner for all of us! Great food and great service!”

“We stumbled upon Key Roots in Islamorada and couldn’t have been happier! Everything here is all-natural and made with care. I had the açaí bowl and it was absolutely excellent — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared.

We brought the whole family, and everyone loved the atmosphere. Even better, they were open on the 4th of July, and we got the chance to meet the owner, Maria. She’s fantastic — incredibly sweet and welcoming. She shared the story of how she came to the Keys from Italy and built this little oasis. You can feel the heart and soul she’s poured into the place.

Highly recommend stopping by Key Roots if you’re in the area. We’ll definitely be back to visit Maria again on our next trip to the Keys!”

“5-stars and an extra star for the gluten-free Belgian beer. And yeah the inside out burger was scrumptious. Well worth a visit. 💯👏🏽👌🏽”

“Incredible fresh and homemade food! You can taste the difference and a MUST for a trip to Key Largo! Celebrated our anniversary at this location and enjoyed the food and experience 🌮 😋 🌮”

“This was the best Thai iced tea I've had since I visited Thailand! They have a large tea/snack menu and the vibe was cute and nice. The shop was cute and the person who helped me was friendly. If I lived in the Keys, I would visit the cafe often.”

“Great atmosphere. Awesome food!!!”

“The food and service are exceptional! They made our anniversary dinner so special for us! We love the food! We will be back!”

“First night in Islamorada,too tired from the days traveling,so we ordered a Turtle Inn salad with grilled chicken to split. Super fresh produce,homemade dressing. It brought us back for a second visit.”

“Nos encantó el lugar , variedad y servicio exelente.”

“We went almost everyday! Bagels are delicious! Great to have my kids know what a real bagel is. Don’t be deterred by a long line, they go quick plus it’s fun listening to all the accents. Highly recommend the Nova with the works!”

“Gabby, Mike and Loe are amazing! Happy Easter.”

“Delicious meal and the atmosphere was fantastic. We enjoyed the view on the patio and our waiter was so helpful with recommendations and customer service. We can’t wait to visit again when we are in town!”

“Good lordddd this place was amazing ! Next time we fly down this will be my first stop ! The staff was absolutely outstanding so personable and kind ! The food was to incredible to even describe ! HIGHLY recommend ! Also head chef plays great music 😂”

“Great Place! Great ambiance!”

“Fun outdoor spot with really good, fresh food. Literally they brought in lobster as we were waiting on our order and put up a sign for lobster tacos as we left!

Good vegetarian options.

Would recommend the veggie tacos, mushroom, soft serve ice cream, and the agua fresca!”

“Omg the shrimp here was amazing! Great selection of beer too. I got the shrimp basket fried in piña colada batter, which gave it an awesome coconut flavor. It came with a side of my choice, so I went with the mac n’ cheese. Definitely not healthy, but honestly such a great dinner. My husband had the shrimp and grits, which were packed with amazing flavor.

The ambiance was laid-back and chill, which was perfect after a long day. Lots of great food options too!

The servers were so sweet and attentive. You could tell they had great teamwork and were all helping each other.

Overall, it’s such a fun spot with yummy food, and the prices were reasonable. Already dreaming about the fried shrimp!!! We also ordered the key lime pie with chocolate to go, and we’re excited to enjoy it as a snack later!”

“Good food, scenic location and good people.”

“First night in Islamorada,too tired from the days traveling,so we ordered a Turtle Inn salad with grilled chicken to split. Super fresh produce,homemade dressing. It brought us back for a second visit.”

“Discovered this little strip mall gem on our first evening. The owners and staff are delightful. Sunday brunch was a treat, the quiche was obviously freshly made and delicious and the biscuits and gravy were amazing. There is a well rounded wines by the glass menu with something for every taste and a more extensive wine by the bottle menu. I would totally recommend this place to anyone.”

“Outstanding customer service and superb eats to top it off, a definite winner!”

“Yanis made this the best experience. We were heading back home to Miami and stopped for a quick bite. The second floor was not crowded at the moment, she gave us VIP treatment and even as it got more crowded she was the same and didn’t stop attending us. The view, the experience and the music was great and very reasonable priced for all that we ordered. We will be back”

“Yummy ice cream and shaved ice, and incredible customer service! It was a hot December day and Robbie’s and Charli’s Shave Ice was the perfect place to get a snack! Large menu, multiple sizes, fast service (especially when you have tons of people and only one person behind the bus). We have members in our party with celiac and when asked if anything was gluten free, for celiac, they answered and even offered to show us the tubs of ice cream and flavor bottles! There was a mix up on our end and when I reached out later, the owners were incredibly helpful and understanding. This is definitely a small business you should support! The owners are great, service is fast, prices are decent, location is great, snacks are yummy! This will be on our list for when we come back to the keys! Also don’t miss the key lime pie ice cream!”

“I took my family there back in 2010. We took a cruise and found out that this place was affiliated with a former Steeler. Having been raised and still a Steeler fanatic this place was awesome. The accommodations were amazing and the service outside was great. Just trying to plan a return trip! Going on 14 years later.”

“We loved our stay at Amara Cay over spring break! Will certainly be back. Fish Like a Local was an incredible experience at Amara Cay and Three Waters for our whole family! We have been to the keys several times participating in multiple fishing experiences on charters and off bridges and Patrick was by far the best guide we have ever had! He is so friendly, fun, informative and patient! We were fortunate enough to fish with him our first day and it was a hit. We made it a point to be sure we fished with him again prior to the end of our trip and will be sure to check him out the next time we are in the keys. Highly recommend!”

“We visited while on vacation. The first time we had the ice cream and some of the chocolates. The next day we returned and bought more ice cream, chocolates, and candy as souvenirs to take home to the kids. Everything was delicious and the service was great. Everyone was friendly and looked like they genuinely enjoyed their job. I love the decor too.”

“This place has a can't miss menu with many excellent choices, excellent food at affordable prices, great location, patient, warm, and friendly staff. What's not to like?? Thank you Brian Cone for inviting our family. Thanks Connie for exceptional service and a most pleasant demeanor.”

“We ordered this sushi to go. It was soooo good! We get sushi quite a bit, and this is some of the best we've had in a while! And prices were good compared to others in the area. Definitely recommend!”

“It was amazing! I went with my family when on vacation and it couldn’t be better! They had a variety of options with drinks and food. The best part was the dessert, we all had the ice cream sandwich was to die for!
I highly recommend coming here!!!”

“Delicious pizza and friendly wait staff!”

“It was a delicious sandwich (roll) lobster 🦞, very simple, small area, prices same as other places that serve lobster rolls, ❣️ but excellent, including very cute quaint curio shops, we go in and enjoy lobster rolls every chance we get to head to the Florida Keys. ❣️try it ‼️ it's always an adventure ❣️”

“Guy and Butch were great bartenders! Key Lime Colada was my favorite...expect to spend $14+ per drink though...this didn't stop us from getting drinks there!”

“3/9/25—My first night at this amazing house—GUYS, I am floored! Who owns this place? Because they have definitely been blessed by Jesus himself. One day, I need to afford not just one but many houses like this. This has to be at least a $2 million house. But anyway…

Let’s get to the real crisis at hand: my husband’s coffee addiction. He’s basically a coffee narcissist—picky, dramatic, and completely incapable of functioning without a high-quality cup. So my first mission of the day? Find a place that serves coffee early in the morning.

I Googled, and a gas station café popped up. Reviews? Terrible. Service? Questionable. Vibes? Unclear. But I thought, why not? So I started my journey, walking in the morning heat, jamming to Michael Jackson, feeling the ocean breeze on one side and the Everglades air on the other. It was a moment.

About ten minutes into my walk, I spotted the gas station I had seen yesterday. Then, I noticed a sign: "Cuban Something." Oh boy. I had already read on Google that this place was awful, but I was already there, so… I took a deep breath and went in.

I did a quick scan—sized up the employees, checked for hot food (none, just pre-packed to-go items), and finally decided to try their coffee. I ordered one beef empanada and two croquetas de jamón because, you know, when in Miami… but in Key West !😂

María took my order, and another lady made the coffee. No "good morning," no smiles, but listen—this is not a five-star restaurant. Nobody is working for tips. It’s a get-your-essentials-and-go type of place. Honestly, I respect that.

Now, let’s talk about the Spanish situation. I love practicing my Spanish, but for some reason, when I speak it here, locals think I sound Mexican. Back in my home state? They swear I sound Colombian. My accent is apparently a mystery.

Would I recommend this place? If you want quick, no-nonsense Cuban coffee and snacks, yes. If you expect customer service that will hold your hand and whisper sweet nothings into your ear? Absolutely not.

Oh, and the bathroom? Didn’t see one. But I can guess why they don’t offer it freely to travelers. If you really need to use it, just offer some money—cash makes the world go 'round, and let’s be real, you’ll probably leave it cleaner than you found it.
Also to the side of the establishment there is a seating area . Treat the birds with respect
Final verdict? It’s a gas station kind of place . This should tell all , but it’s a gas station with Cuban coffee next door . That’s good enough for me.”

“De passage à islamorada durant notre séjour dans les keys nous nous sommes arrêté chez Robbie’s,nous sommes tombé sous le charme de cet endroit. Déjeuner au Hungry tarpon,tellement délicieux que nous y avons à nouveau déjeuné au retour de key west. Endroit magnifique au bord de l’eau,personnel très chaleureux,notre serveur John très sympa. Vivement notre prochain séjour en Floride et particulièrement dans les keys 🥰🇺🇸”

“The very best Key Lime Colada in the Keys! Amazing prices and food! Beautiful outdoor setting for watching the sunset.”

“Einfach Wunderbar 🌴💚 I'm freien sitzen und auf das Meer schauen, essen lecker, leider alles in Plastik serviert”

“We took our daughters and their friends here for a special dinner. The chef let each daughter and her friend split the huge 16oz steak which then was perfect.”

“I stopped in on Saturday and Sunday and I was impressed great food and reasonable pricing!”

“We love Taki Outi! The food is always fresh and delivery never disappoints. Super cute little family owned business right here in Islamorada! What could be better? :)”

“Best bbq I’ve had in years!!!!! Worth the visit 100%”

“My food here was delicious. Our sushi was made to perfection, we also ordered steak as our entree and came out exactly as wished. Peyton was our server she was always made sure our drinks were full, and that we were enjoying the atmosphere, she was very kind and attentive. Would love to have her as our sever next time we come in!”

“We loved this restaurant! Super laid back atmosphere, delicious food, great music, fair pricing, great view of the ocean! Definitely recommend!!”

“We were so excited to find this location of sushi sake, it is the absolute best! The sushi melted in our mouths, honestly it's some of the best sushi we have ever had, and we eat a lot of sushi! This time it was my son and myself, we had sashimi nigiri and a few rolls. Our favorite was the Kendall roll, which we chose by recommendation of the chefs, Thomas and Steven. They are truly masters of their craft, I will definitely be back when I am in the area again. Thank you for a great experience we won't forget!”

“This place is just not a pretty face. Ok, well it is but, the food is as tasty as the sunsets are dramatic.”

“Lovely meal overlooking the beach.”

“Loved their service thank you so much 🙌💓”

“10/10, one of the best subway locations in the keys to go to. Staff is always welcoming and so friendly. Super quick service as well.

Also want to shout out Arlneen for keeping my Fiancé's debit card safe for us while we looked for it and until we could come pick it up.”

“Exceptional service by our hostess and the manager made us feel at ease and enhanced the atmosphere which was already beautiful! Originally, we made reservations to have the Sea Bass—EVERYONE suggested it! It was so popular that by the time we were seated, it was no longer available. We switched to the Yellowtail Snapper and it was delicious! It was a memorable night for our 30th anniversary—the beautiful sunset views, the cocktails, the service and the food were fantastic! I'm glad we reserved a table at Pierre's.”

“Nice atmosphere, good food, a great drinks.”

“The staff make this place”

“This is the best Gelato, sorbet and ice cream I’ve had in a long time!! Amazing flavors, knowledgeable and mega friendly staff! The recommended combinations were perfect and delicious!! Thank you for making our experience one of a kind! Blessings”

“I loved everything about Atlantic Edge. I had purposed and got engaged hours before our reservation. The Element was perfect for private yet romantic outside values of public settings. The service was kind friendly and brought joy to the table making it more enlightening to our night. The food is very well prepared and the music with water front views created flavor that only Atlantic Edge can bring! Deff bring your other half our even the kids if you want to treat somebody! Thanks again for the Edge!”

“They kept the charm of the old Marker 88 in little details like keep the 2 GREEN covered table and benches almost in the same location as before... a iconic scene was shot in one of them on a episode of BLOODLINE. Food is as good if not better than before if that is possible.... service is excellent too. Friendly staff including hostess/host and waitresses/waiters very impressed with the new dock and WOW EVERY table has a GREAT view to take in LOTS of selfies were being taken during my visit, I celebrated my 78th Birthday 1 day before and had Fresh Mahi Mahi Tacos for Lunch. So happy they did a complete do over after the destruction from the hurricane that so much damage to the beautiful Keys. Welcome Back Marker 88! Happy to see you there....”
