About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for scenic views
At the Island Way Grill, we're all about fresh fish. Our own boats make daily trips to the middle grounds to bring back fresh tuna, mahi, snapper and other local varieties. No long-line fish here-just hook, rod, and reel. If it's any fresher, it is still in the gulf. Most of our cooking revolves around our oak and citrus fired open pit, which sears at an extremely high temperature and adds a delicious smokiness to everything grilled. You'll find an abundance of fresh herbs and only the best quality seasonings. Fresh vegetables are used throughout our menu, and all soups and sauces are hand-prepared. We are also proud to provide an excellent selection of the worlds best oysters flown in fresh for your enjoyment. In addition to our menu, our chefs prepare a varied assortment of daily specials that always add an element of interest to our every-day offerings.

    Great food! Large and noisy restaurant. I would sit on the patio near the boats if I was going back to FL. Loved it.

    Great Atmosphere, but Service Could Use a Bit of Polish We were excited to dine here and had requested outdoor seating with our reservation, but unfortunately weren’t able to get it. While the ambiance inside was still pleasant, it wasn’t quite what we were hoping for. The food overall was good, though a few details were missed. We didn’t receive bread before our meal, and when the server brought our food, some oyster sauce accidentally spilled onto the table. We asked for a new fork and napkin, but they were never brought, and the spill wasn’t addressed. The kids’ drinks arrived very late—right as the food was served—and our espresso martini didn’t come out until the very end of dinner, long after it was ordered. On top of that, the server never once checked on us to ask how everything was during the meal. Despite these service hiccups, we enjoyed the meal and the flavors were definitely worth trying. With a little more attention to detail, this could easily be a top-notch experience.

    We had reservations at 7:30pm but didn’t sit until after 8pm as we wanted to sit outside. The restaurant was very cold. Our waitress Penny was very good. The food took a while to come out. The pasta was a bit too heavy but the steak was amazing! They even cut it for us so our family could share. Very extensive menu would go back to try more items!

    This is probably a very nice restaurant at some other time. But based on our experience yesterday, I would not give it strong ratings. Service was very poor. We ate outside and the deck was noisy and not clean. The food was fine, but not exceptional. The music was too loud. In hindsite, it might’ve been better if we had eaten inside. We were really looking forward to this experience and it was far below our expectations.
