What The Fish Rolls & More

Outstanding lunch stop! Delicious fresh seafood rolls (sandwiches) - we had a Casa Mar (local catch) and a calamari roll. Flavorful and tender! The rolls were grilled to perfection. The owner was welcoming and so helpful. The small venue with outside seating only overlooking the canal was very pleasant. Highly recommend!

What the Fish - best place to eat near key largo. A the hidden gem. The owner has the best costumer service I’ve ever seen. He explained the menu in detail and was passionate the entire time about the food. He recommended many things and we were super satisfied with the meal. Amazing food. We loved it so much we came back the next day. The fish tacos and shrimp tacos are awesome!!!!! The chicken tacos and chicken roll were great. The fish ceviche was one of the best. They do great conch as well. I miss this place already, I want to go back it’s that good. Mar Bar - Food was great, had the fish tacos and chicken tacos. Owner is the friendliest person and he explained the menu in detail.

Beautiful fish restaurant on the water with incredible fresh food. Came last year so wanted to try again. We had the catch of the day ceviche and roll to share, the lady that served us was very friendly, the atmosphere sat next to the water very relaxed. The best ceviche of our trip so far.

The lobster roll is insane!!! If you’re eating anywhere in Islamorada (or anywhere near for that matter) you’ve GOT to come here. The service is unmatched, they’re so kind and willing to help with anything, plus the cooking is not only insanely savory and flavorful but it’s flavors I can only find here! Definitely coming back whenever I have the chance. We also tried the ceviche, the fried fish, and the calamari. Every dish is 10/10. SO happy!

I grew up on the water, so in six decades I've become a pretty discriminating seafood eater. I have to say that this little place more than lives up to the hype (good reviews)! It's a charming down-home "shack" which might to a degree belie the very good food. It's an order-then-sit place, with great dockside tables, very pleasant (although it could get hot mid-summer days). Parking is generally decent although it can get filled with the other businesses near it. The menu isn't huge but it's varied, with roll dishes, catch of the day, taco dishes, fresh shrimp or lobster dishes, and even hot dogs for land lovers. To me it's mostly casual seafood, lots of "basket" type fare but wow so good! I had the shrimp roll and it was excellent, plus a side of clams (fried) with some type of sauce that was delicious. My wife had the calamaris salad which was crisp and flavorful. This is more a "drop in" place rather than full-course higher-end seafood restaurant, but its casualness is attractive. The only small rec I'd have is for a fountain-type soda/water maybe DIY bar instead of cans or individual cups, especially as people might be thirsty from a day out. But no big deal. The owner is tops, very animated and friendly; he bent over backwards making sure we got everything (he is also the server), good guy. The reviews are accurate. This is a great little place to stop and have a great lunch or quick, informal meal with great seafood. We'll definitely come back.
