"You would think Miami has lots of restaurants with unblemished views of the beach. But you’d be wrong. There are practically none, except for Ocean Social, a mostly seafood restaurant with some Southern and Caribbean influences in the back of Miami Beach’s Eden Roc. And that’s the big reason to know about this place. The food is more ambitious than most hotel restaurants, and there are some good dishes—like a kampachi crudo that replaces the usual leche de tigre with citrusy aji amarillo causa. But the food is also expensive (brace for the automatic 22% service charge) and inconsistent. So while it’s not worth traveling across town to come here, it is worth knowing about if you're hell-bent on having some perfectly fine grilled fish while the Atlantic Ocean does its thing directly to your left.
