Best Miami Seafood
Restaurants
by Samantha Ferguson
Captain's Tavern in Pinecrest,
located off of US1, is our choice for favorite Miami seafood restaurant in
Pinecrest. This nautical themed restaurant, which is decorated with
several saltwater tanks, features an extensive wine list with over 500
wines, mostly from California, as well as a massive menu with a variety of
Caribbean and South American flavored food for both seafood and land
lovers. Known for its fun, family environment, don't be bashful to request
a crayon and a coloring sheet, as it definitely makes the meal more
enjoyable.
Captain's Tavern Menu: To
start, we recommend the Maine Lobster Bisque ($6.00) and the Conch
Fritters ($8.95). For Land Lovers, you can't go wrong with the Filet
Mignon ($24.95) accompanied by mushrooms and asparagus. For Seafood
Lovers, we suggest you try the Grilled Snapper ($18.95) with the Island
Style topping, which is a local's favorite.
Francesco in Coral Gables is
Restaurantplace.com's favorite Miami seafood restaurant with a Peruvian
flare. This moderately priced restaurant is small yet perfect for any
occasion. Francesco's restaurant in Miami is considered to be one of the
authentic upscale Peruvian restaurants.
Francesco's Menu: For an
appetizer, try the traditional ceviches and tiraditos. Our favorite lunch
entree is the Seco de Salmon ($13), which is a cilantro based stew of
Alaskan Salmon served with Peruvian white beans risotto. Mouth-watering
dinner entrees include the Lomo Saltado ($23), which is sautéed Black
Angus beef tenderloin accompanied by onions and tomatoes, and the Saltado
de Grouper ($24) served with shrimp, onions, tomatoes, and combination of
refried beans and rice.
Joe's Stone Crab in South
Beach is a favorite among locals, tourist, and celebrities. The wait is
usually long, especially for weekend dinners, but well worth it.
Unfortunately, you cannot make a reservation, and if you don't want to be
waiting long, it is advisable to go as early as possible to be seated
quickly. This seafood restaurant is RestaurantPlace.com's pick for
favorite stone crab restaurant in Miami. Out of all Miami Restaurants,
Joe's Stone crab is probably the most recognizable Seafood restaurant in
Miami.
Joe's Stone Crab Menu: Joe's
famous Stone Crabs (market price) are served with mustard sauce. We
recommend ordering the medium claws as they usually the best for flavor.
There are several choices for sides, but we recommend trying the Creamed
Garlic Spinach ($3.95) and the Hashed Browns ($5.25). Key Lime Pie is
another favorite.
Prime One Twelve, located in
the converted 1915 Brown's Hotel, is currently the hottest restaurant on
South Beach and is RestaurantPlace.com's favorite trendy steakhouse and
seafood restaurant in Miami. Don't be surprised to see movie stars,
celebrities, and a collection of high priced sport and luxury cars parked
in front. Popular for its oversized dry-aged steaks, this Miami restaurant
also offers one of the best dining experiences for any seafood lover.
Prime One Twelve's Menu: The
Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail ($7) is a great starter. For a salad, we recommend
the "The Double Wedge" salad ($14), which is iceberg & butter lettuce with
apple wood smoked bacon with a creamy blue dressing. If you are in the mood
for a steak, the 8 oz Filet Mignon ($30) is always cooked to perfection.
If you are a seafood lover, we recommend the Soy Marinated Sea Bass ($31)
served with baby bok choy and a sweet miso sauce and the Maine Lobster
(market price).
Red Fish Grill, hidden away in
Matheson Hammock Park in Coral Gables, is RestaurantPlace.com's favorite
romantic seafood restaurant. This restaurant's outdoor seating offers
breathtaking views of Miami's downtown and Key Biscayne and is perfect for
any special occasion. After dinner, feel free to take a romantic walk
around the enclosed beach.
Red Fish Grill's Menu: We
recommend the Sauteed Swordfish ($22.50) accompanied with shallot mashed
potatoes. Another scrumptious entrée is the Seared Tuna Filet ($23), which
is served with white rice, stir fry vegetables and a sweet soy glaze.
