In a city of excess, Sexy Fish manages to be…excessive. This Miami outpost of the London-based flagship of the same racy name is an over-the-top under-the-sea fantasy decorated with millions of dollars’ worth of art, including a giant living aquarium wall, pieces by Damien Hirst – even bathroom installations (a lifelike mermaid in the ladies’ […]

Live music every other Friday night. Brazilian music and dancing.
The first thing you’ll notice when you walk into Shuckers is the breathtaking view of Biscayne Bay. Next will be the myriad sporting events playing on the many flat-screen TVs. Just as your stomach begins to rumble, fill up on raw oysters, fresh fish, wings, and a bacon cheeseburger made with 100 percent USDA Prime […]

The specialty at this fast-food joint is seafood – everything from Miami menu classics (grouper and snapper) to soul food classics such as catfish, whiting, and ocean perch, all deep-fried. Sides, most also deep-fried, range (in descending quality) from very tasty onion rings and slaw through decent corn nuggets, okay okra and conch fritters, mediocre […]
Miami needs a place like Sonia’s Seafood Bait & Tackle Restaurant. A fish market, bar, music venue, local’s hangout and veritable shack of eccentricities, it’s a Flagami mainstay. Diners can pick up fresh catches like red snapper, yellowtail, hogfish, mangrove, calamari, lobsters and langostinos – or sit a spell and get their fish grilled or […]
You’re probably thinking, “This is in Fort Lauderdale!” but trust us, this hidden gem is worth the drive from Miami. In the 1970s, when it opened, Fort Lauderdale was still a very undeveloped little beach town, but it was the home to one of the finest seafood restaurants in South Florida. Over the past fifty-plus […]
Once upon a time, the food options at your local bowling alley were stale nachos, school-style pizza, and maybe a dehydrated burger or two. But that is far from the case at Splitsville, located next to the movie box office on the second floor of the Shops at Sunset Place. In fact, the bowling alley […]
Culinary couple – and erstwhile Top Chef contestants Jeff McInnis (season 5) and Janine Booth (season 11) – operate this Sunset Harbour fish house, which draws inspiration from the former’s early years in the Florida Panhandle, where he subsisted on simply prepared seafood paired with tropical cocktails. The indoor-outdoor venue includes a maritime-themed dining room […]

The prices at the Surf Club Restaurant are among the highest you’ll find in Miami, but then, so is the quality. Located in a completely rebuilt Mediterranean Revival-style resort in Surfside, the restaurant stands just a few blocks from high-end Bal Harbour. Designed by Russell Pancoast, the original inn and eatery opened on New Year’s […]
SushiSamba Miami Beach is the less talked about older sister of Sugarcane Raw Bar Grill. It’s a warm and stylish space with a dominant sushi bar occupying the center. The room is so imbued in an orange hue that if Mario Batali ever removed his trademark clogs here, he’d never find them. Michael Bloise (Wish, […]
Tarpon’s 200-seat room offers a limited raw bar – three varieties of oyster, stone crabs and inventive ceviches. Warm appetizers are appealing, none more so than middleneck clams (from Florida’s west coast) pan-roasted in a spicy white wine and tomato broth, with grilled triangular toasts for sopping up the garlic-and-herb-pepped liquid. Catch of the day […]
There’s good reason why the humble codfish is so prevalent at Teixeira Portugal: The history of Portuguese cuisine, which is represented in Miami in only a handful of restaurants, is filled with off-white fillets of the ubiquitous catch. The heartiness and seemingly endless shelf life of the salted, preserved fish that became the fuel for […]

To paraphrase the poet Ogden Nash: A wonderful place is the Pelican – its plates hold more food than your belly can. Grab a seat on the outdoor patio that spills onto Ocean Drive and indulge in an overflowing Mediterranean salad composed of shrimp, arugula, radicchio, corn, hearts of palm, and fresh mozzarella dressed in […]
Don’t sleep on one of Miami’s best seafood restaurants. Located in the heart of Brickell for more than two decades, the River Oyster Bar is one of Miami’s top happy-hour spots for busy professionals and locals alike. The menu offers modern twists on classic seafood dishes – and a reprieve from the Miami heat in […]
The Spillover is more than just a good time. It’s also polished, with managers sporting tailored suits and an extensive list of entrées riding alongside all the sandwiches. Try a whole fish, often supplied by whatever the spearfishermen from Trigger Seafood are catching, or grab one of the 15 daily orders of barbecued gator ribs. […]
