Venerable fish house with lively ambiance & seafood specialties
"Captain’s Tavern is a South Miami spot that’s been around since the ’70s. They have a full service restaurant that’s endearingly old school, with lots of dark wood and red tablecloths, and they serve all kinds of seafood dishes - everything from sushi to fried oysters to seafood risotto. Next door to the restaurant, though, is their seafood market, where you can find an equally impressive amount of shellfish, lobster, and pretty much anything else that swims in the Atlantic Ocean and is legal to eat." - ryan pfeffer
"This classic Pinecrest spot features well-priced claws in all different sizes in a retro seafood restaurant setting that oozes nostalgia. Guests can grab them to go to the market located in the back of the restaurant." - Olee Fowler
"For more than 50 years, Captain’s Tavern has been Pinecrest’s top choice for local seafood and house-made specialties. Founded in 1971 by Bill “the Captain” Bowers, this family-run restaurant serves fresh seafood at reasonable prices, thanks to long-established supplier relationships. The rustic, nautical-themed interior, adorned with model ships and maritime relics, clearly leans into the nautical theme. Adjacent to the restaurant, the Captain’s Tavern Seafood Market offers plenty of fresh fish and shellfish to prepare at home." - Eater Staff
"Serving local seafood and house-made specialties for more than 50 years, this is the go-to place in Pinecrest for seafood lovers. Captain’s Tavern also has an extensive, award-winning wine list to enhance your meal as well as a seafood market next door." - Stacy Moya
"Whoever said that good seafood could not be found inland has never eaten at Captain’s Tavern. For more than 50 years, the restaurant has leaned on a network of seafood suppliers who deliver the fish whole and filet immediately on-site. Make sure to check out the Tuesday night special of two-for-one Maine lobsters weighing a minimum of one pound each, and the wine list hailed as one of America’s 50 Most Amazing Wine Experiences by Food & Wine. 1" - Stacy Moya
