The mahi was tasty and tasted a lot like chicken. The soudough bread was good, but very lightly toasted. The coleslaw was very mild and not noticeable at all. The thousand island was the only portion of this sandwich that was reminiscent of a Reuben. This Reuben is probably not the best reason to come to the Island Grill here on the Florida key of Islamorada. It was a decent fish sandwich, though, and didn't taste fishy at all. The coleslaw, swiss, and thousand island blended for a decent sandwich, but I'm sure that their other menu options excel it easily. Dining was very pleasant, on a small inlet just off of the Atlantic ocean where boats can come dock and dine. Dining was outdoors with some shade and the wait staff was friendly.
