Islamadora Fish Company - ISLAMORADA

Well if a picture speaks a thousand words, let my pictures do the talking. Food is always top shelf and prepared equally. Service top to bottom 5 Andrew the manager is beyond his years experience for his age. It is as if he was born to manage this iconic place. We absolutely love him. He has the respect of his team like a U of M FOOTBALL COACH. Our server Clare is just plain graceful at her craft. She and all the servers are special. The bus service gents are incredible too. They are all way above average. Shout out to the kitchen staff, that includes dishwashers as they must get a serious workout with the mountains of dishes and flatware. Ambience one word: PROPER See you soon Ziggies...

We headed here after it was a little too cold to dine outdoors at our previous choice. Our waitress recommended this was the spot for steaks. We sat on the outside covered and mostly closed in patio and it was not too cold so that was really nice. When we first sat it was great. We got greeted right away and were able to order cocktails and a salad on the first go but from there we assume the inside got really busy because we were left alone.... Food wise: We got our wedge very quickly and it was nice and fresh. Our second app was the scallops and those were the highlight of our meal which is slightly ironic given how we were told this is a steak place and that's their bread and butter. But speaking of bread and butter that was delightful. Our steaks were good and large and cooked to our preferred specs but it wasn't anything to brag about. Overall I wouldn't go back. What started out super promising turned out to be a dud. Not the first night of our honeymoon we were hoping for.

Very surprised because the outside does not do the inside justice. Impeccable service and the food is superb. I can't recommend it enough. We really enjoyed our drinks and the food. Portions are very big and shareable. We had leftovers which made a nice lunch the next day.

This was a wonderful place for my birthday dinner with my husband. The food here is amazing and the ambiance is lovely. We loved our server, Ashley. She was really on top of things and surprised me with key lime pie for my bday. She also spoke up to the filthy mouth loud guy near us, which I really appreciated! Can't wait to come back next time we're in the Keys. Highly recommend!

As for the fish dishes, which are a must-try in the Keys, they were above average, even by the area's standards. I ordered the snapper with hollandaise sauce and crab meat stuffing, and it was absolutely perfect in every aspect! By the end of the meal, our table had left only a few onion rings untouched. Overall, it was an impressive meal that everyone enjoyed. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a steak in the Keys or even for a fish dish, especially if you're in a larger group where not everyone is a fan of seafood. I would definitely vouch for the quality of both the food and the service provided by the waitstaff. However, they need to improve their approach for guests waiting for their party or a table. It's not just what people say, but how they say it, and I had a rather unpleasant experience at the bar while waiting for my group. We ended up sitting outside on Route 1 like we were left out in the cold... Because of this, I wouldn’t choose to return, despite the great food.
