Las Islas Mexican Seafood — Restaurant in Nashville-Davidson

Expect AUTHENTIC Mexican seafood. If you are looking for "Mexican" that has been tailored for the American pallet, this may not be for you. Although, there are steak & chicken fajitas on the menu.

The food was excellent, and worth the price. I had pan fried red snapper, topped with shrimp & octopus. The serving was very large. My husband had my leftovers for his dinner later that night. My husband is Oaxacan. After eating my leftovers, he is insisting that we eat at Las Islas today.

The service was excellent. Our waitress was very helpful, kind, and patient. My friend and I (2 gringas), had lots of questions.

The atmosphere is very "small cafe". Adult beverages are available. Other than my friend & I, the clientele appeared to be all Latino. When I go to a restaurant for any type ethnic food, seeing customers of that ethnicity enjoying the food is always a sign that the food is authentic and great!

We stumbled upon this place as a secondary option since our first did not offer dine in. The food was good, cooked well and nice and hot when it arrived.

Alot of the menu was spicy so there weren't alot of options for kids or adults who don't like that. Our server was decent, although she did get very busy once dinner rush started. She was the only one waiting tables AND making drinks, so I commend her for that. My daughter ordered a steak fajita plate but they were out of steak so she settled for chicken. We had to ask twice for some tortillas for her, the kitchen just kept forgetting to warm them up? They definitely weren't homemade so I'm not sure why it took so long. She was already done eating by the time she got 2 rolled up tortillas. All in all it was an ok dinner but I'm pretty sure we won't be...

Unexpected gem located in a tiny strip mall next to a vape store. Simple spotless tiny restraunt, specializing in freshly prepared seafood. Rather than the normal, chips and salsa on arrival, Las Islas greets guests with House made tortillas, saltine crackers and a small delicious ceviche and a delicious firey green sala. I had an off menu special of marinated seafood that included shrimp, octopus, and scallops along with oysters. The dish was very accurately described as spicy. There is a full bar and a very serviceable selection of Mexican brews. Can't wait to return and try the balance...
