We stopped in here for lunch on our way back from a short vacation in Key West . . . this was the best food of the whole trip!! We had a few disappointing meals in Key West but this more than made up for it. Very friendly staff, though not much ambience. The art for sale (by local artists)... More

We had dinner here the last night of our vacation in Islamorada. Everyone enjoyed their meals. The shrimp and grits, conch chowder and fish tacos got rave reviews. We shared the strawberry shortcake and LoVED it! Hands down the best we've had!

The hogfish special with crab and scallop stuffing was amazing. It was a good size portion and I couldn't bring myself to leave any on my plate. Very casual laid back atmosphere and friendly service. Highly recommend !

We stopped here for lunch on our way through the keys because of the recommendations on trip advisor. My husband had the blackened grouper sandwich and says it was the best one of our 2 week holiday! I had the chicken and bacon burger and it was really good too.

Suprised by the location and building but $25 for a yellow tail dinner with 2 sides is a good price and it was delicious. Natalia was a really good server.

Ma's cooked our fish 3 different ways that we had caught. They did a great job with our meal and were very responsive in serving all 10 of us. Great job to the waitress for keeping us all happy with cold beers and quick service with teh fish. The Key Lime pie and Strawberry Short cake was even better!!

Very good baja fish tacos! Also had yummy crispy hush puppies. Have a piece of the classic key lime pie..it was delicious, so tart and sweet! All dishes were big enough to share.

We ate here twice, dinner and lunch and had wonderful meals both times. When the locals are present, you know it's great. Terrific conch fritters, fresh fish, scallops, shrimp, and of course the awsome key lime pie. The fish tacos are huge. Don't stop at the "chain" across the street. You won't be disappointed at Ma's.

The food was great, as was the pie, but be advised: prices are higher at dinner... much higher. Also, they run out of things, like the Hummingbird cake and the hogfish.

I have had lots of good key lime pies and I am always in search for the best one ever...I have found it! This is the best key lime I have ever had! We had a grilled and a blackened grouper with grilled veggies and they were both very happy...I wanted the shrimp and grits as that was the dish... More
