best seafood wish is at island fish!. i'll start by saying that this is the type of place you hope to find when on vacation! island fish distinguishes itself from all the local joints offering food, booze and music, not to mention the great view and ambience in the keys and island tradition. i looked them up on yelp before traveling and was even more enticed after having lunch there, deciding to come back a few days later for new year's dinner! the moment you walk in, it reeks of laid back fun and relaxation. while at the furthest point of the u.s., on water and in the sun, who wants anything but fresh fish, seafood and drink, so for lunch we had the fresh catch mahi mahi sandwich on toasted bun, with remoulade sauce, lettuce, tomato and banana pepper, and excellent choice as the remoulade is good enough to write home about; also had the fried dolphin (incredibly tender) lightly dusted with flour, sautéed with sherry, lemon and butter wrap; and the baja fresh tacos consisting of soft tacos, lightly fried mahi mahi, cabbage, tomato, cilantro, jalopenos, and sour cream salsa, served with white rice and black beans; we also had their taco salad consisting of a fried tortilla bowl, refried beans, iceburg lettuce, tomato, monterrey jack and cheddar cheeses, black olives, scallions and a side of tomatillo sauce topped with a blend of ground beef with sour cream and tomatoes; we washed it all down with lemonade; coors lite; stella; virgin pina colada; cuervo margarita... here at the beach i was expecting beach-bum names of my servers to be buffy or gidget, maybe boom boom or wave-runner, but i had to settle for yani, more musical than beachy... anyway, service was extraordinary as was the food and ambience. a few days later for new year's dinner we enjoyed: caesar salad; macho chicken nachos grilled with tomatoes, olives, black beans, jalapenos, scallions and smothered in cheese with salsa, sour cream and guacamole; stuffedshrimpof key west pink gold shrimp, stuffed with mango crab meat stuffing, baked and topped with key lime mustard sauce served with white rice and black beans; hogfish fried, topped with creamy sherry sauce,shrimpserved with rice and veggie special; absolute & soda; irish rum coffee; sierra nevada; grapefruit crush of absoulute ruby red, cointreau, grapefruit juice and sprite; blue lagoon with coconut rum and blue curacao. ahoy and bon apetit!
