The 20 Best Restaurants In Downtown Miami - Miami - The Infatuation

"Since 1966, this spot has been the best place to eat on the Miami River—where you can watch yachts, boats that are almost certainly smuggling something illegal, and the occasional lost dolphin all drift by in the course of a lunch. It’s still a good choice because it’s good, simple, and one of the few waterfront spots in the area where you won’t be surrounded by $200 bottles of rosé and people who arrived via luxury yacht. Start with some fried shellfish, listen closely to the daily specials, and if it’s stone crab season, you know what to do." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo
