I can't say enough good things about Cafe Bluefish! This was my first time visiting the cafe and I was happy with every aspect. The atmosphere is very Key West, very laid back with live music. (but not too loud or rammy) The food was excellent. They had a happy hour special where appetizers were $5 each so we decided... more

We really didn't enjoy our lunch at Cafe Bluefish. The place just looks dirty, and the tables greasy.Lots of bikers hanging out. Wings were average at best.I wouldn't want to return. more

I went to Cafe Bluefish based on reviews that I read here. There is a huge bar in the center with some booths and tables surrounding the bar. The music was very loud. There was sports on half a dozen or more tv screens. The food was average. I had a grilled mahi mahi sandwich. The fish had little flavor.... more

We visit Fort Lauderdale every year and usually eat at Cafe Bluefish twice during each stay. Last year the grouper had been taken off the menu but we had the snapper instead and it was very good. One of the nights we had a very slow waiter with no personality and he never came back to refill our beverages or... more

We went here twice this year. The fried fish was great. The grilled or sauteed fish was really bland. The server kept forgetting to bring us something, disappeared for a long time, and had no personality. more

I've been going to this place for years. Some of the 'help' has changed over the year, but the food and atmosphere remains excellent. As somene else noted, seems they're now participating in the Restaurant.com coupon deal as well. The wings are top notch. They offer a variety of sauces and always big size and crispy. I even included a... more

The food in this place was off the charts. We stumbled on it by accident after going to the beach and walking back to our hotel. I had the fried fish, french fries, and coleslaw. I also had the conch choweder. The fish had to have been the freshest fish I ever had and the way they fried it was... more

Loved It!

We went here during our vacation. I had bought a gift certificate from restaurant.com for $25 (only paid $5). When I presented it to the waiter he wasn't phased and was very helpful. We had a blackened sword fish with onion rings, spinach dip, and a fish sandwich of some sort. The sword fish was excellent! Loved the atmosphere here... more
