Marker 88 is an absolute gem in Islamorada! The atmosphere is relaxed and beautiful, with unbeatable waterfront views, but the highlight of my visit was the blackened hogfish with Tabasco butter sauce. Perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and the sauce was incredible — rich, flavorful, and with just the right amount of kick. It’s one of those dishes you’ll be thinking about long after the meal.
The service was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. If you’re in the Keys, Marker 88 is a must-visit for both the food and the setting. Highly recommend!

Our very favorite restaurant in The Keys...we always stop here at least once per visit. It is impossible to beat the atmosphere here...it's a true tropical paradise. The food is outstanding--perfectly seasoned and prepared, large portions and reasonably priced. The wait staff are consistently very attentive and extremely friendly. Fabulous cocktails, dog friendly, beautiful views.

Great food, great energy and awesome staff. We had the tuna app, key lime seafood which was to die for plus their house made fries. We were super impressed by the quality of the food plus superb service by lovely Karen. We’ll def be back.

This restaurant EXCEEDED my expectations!! The food was so delicious, and it was every dish that we ordered. One of the best I have eaten at in quite a long time. Spectacular service and beautiful views of the sunset. Best guacamole I have had in years!! The chef deserves a raise!

Excellent Bayside seafood right on the water. Live music was appropriate and not obtrusive.

Angelo is a FANTASTIC bartender- awesome Tiki experience
Beautiful place to visit and enjoy the scenery. Unfortunately the food isn’t great but it’s also not bad. The atmosphere Makes up for it, but i would stick to the appetizers and cocktails. Worth a visit if you’ve never been.

Best meal of our whole US-trip! At first my daughter was a bit sceptical due to the relatively low 4.2 star average but I insisted on the sea views and boy, did they deliver above and beyond! The food was absolutely delicious, rich in flavors, taste composure on point, the vegetarian sushi rolls brought a super interesting mushroom variation and the peal&eat shrimp was perfect 👌 all together really, REALLY excellent! Sitting right on the beach was perfect, live music played when we arrived and our waiter Rolando was present at the perfect time, thank you to the whole Marker 88 team, this is what hospitality should be like! When next in Florida, I will go to the Keys just to return here!

Beautiful restaurant, Place was empty, dinner for 8 for our last night in the keys, service was basic for an empty restaurant, food came out wrong, one dinner was forgot about, no dressing for the salad and nothing offered. No mashed potatoes as stated on menu. Had to salt a $60 steak. Then had to wait for the check to where we got up to get it. Music was turned off. Will not be back! Just not a good experience at all. Usually don’t have a bad experience in the keys.

We stopped for lunch at Mark 88 in Islamorada, and everything exceeded expectations. The setting was stunning — right on the water with unbeatable views. The food was fresh, tasty, and beautifully presented, truly top class. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. To top it off, there was live music that added the perfect laid-back vibe to our meal. Highly recommend for anyone passing through the Keys — this spot is a gem!
