Casablanca Waterfront Bar and Grill

Casablanca is the perfect spot for great seafood with an unbeatable view. The restaurant overlooks the pier, offering a stunning scene of yachts passing by, which makes for a relaxing and enjoyable dining experience. We went on a Wednesday and took advantage of their 50-cent oysters, which were fresh, perfectly shucked, and full of flavor. It’s hard to find a better deal for quality oysters! On top of that, we enjoyed several drinks during happy hour (4-7 PM), making the experience even better. The cocktails were well-made, refreshing, and paired perfectly with the seafood. The atmosphere was lively yet laid-back, and the service was excellent—friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Whether you're looking for a casual hangout or a place to enjoy fresh seafood with a great view, Casablanca is a fantastic choice. We’ll definitely be back!

We had a lovely evening dining at this waterfront restaurant and would definitely recommend it—with a few caveats. Overall, it’s a solid 4-star experience for the food and setting, but closer to 3 stars when it comes to the service. The location is absolutely beautiful—right on the bay with boats drifting by and a soft breeze coming off the water. The ambience is relaxed and coastal-chic, perfect for a casual yet special dinner out. Sunset views make it especially memorable. We enjoyed several menu items. The oysters were a highlight—fresh and delicious, and we appreciated that you could order them individually. The ceviche was bright and flavorful. The pepperoni flatbread and salads were decent, not standout but solid. The cheese sticks were a surprise favorite—crispy on the outside, melty inside, and a great snack to start with. The mixed fried seafood appetizer had good variety and was cooked well, but they forgot to bring the dipping sauces, which definitely would’ve elevated it. Service was polite but a bit spotty. Our server was friendly, but several items had to be requested more than once, and a few never arrived. We didn’t get sauces we asked for, and drink refills were delayed. Still, everyone was kind and accommodating, which helped soften the inconvenience. With a bit more consistency in the service, this could easily become a favorite go-to. As it stands, it’s a lovely spot for a waterfront meal with good food and a view that’s hard to beat.

Well….. the only good thing is the view…. Service and food was terrible and sooooo over priced Consider another place before this one The oysters were smelly, the “schnitzel” was thin as paper and they added gratuity even though we were not a party of six, they did take it out. Oh and get ready to pay a lot for parking as there’s none. Definitely better choices in Miami.

We were here for a 2 day meeting and loved this place so much we ate here 3 times, and always on the patio overlooking the harbor. Ambiance, Food and Service were Amazing!!! We had Oysters on the Half Shell; Coconut Shrimp; Pork Belly Bites; Frito Mixto; Lobster Pasta; and Shrimp Liguini! My mouth is watering even while typing this! Cocktails are fantastic, too!

Services was excellent, good atmosphere, we seat outside and you can see the boats. Good food only the meat was no good. If you come here eat sea food they’re excellent.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We recently celebrated our 20-year high school reunion at Casablanca on the Bay, and I cannot say enough amazing things about the experience! From start to finish, the professionalism was unmatched. The waitresses and bartenders were incredibly kind, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Despite the rain, the team went above and beyond to accommodate us with grace and excellence. The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, and the DJ had us dancing like it was 2005 all over again — pure nostalgia and nonstop fun! To whoever is running the show behind the scenes: management, take a bow — you and your staff exemplify excellence in every way. The drinks were flowing, the energy was electric, and the memories we made will last a lifetime. This spot is a must for birthday celebrations, brunch with friends, or any special occasion. I will absolutely be back and will be bringing my family next time. Thank you, Casablanca on the Bay, for an unforgettable time!

Oh. My. Goodness! So good. I had Poseidon's feast. I can not rave enough about this dish. The red snapper was tender, moist, and flavorful. The side of rice was the best I have ever had. So much flavor and not dry. If I could give 10 stars, I would.

I had high hopes for this place given its amazing location, with beautiful views of the water and the city, but sadly, that’s where the positives end. The food was honestly awful. Everything we ordered was either overcooked, underseasoned, or just plain bad. It felt like no care went into the preparation at all. The only thing worth mentioning in a positive light were the drink specials during happy hour—they were decently priced and helped take the edge off the disappointment. But great views and cheap drinks aren’t enough to make up for such a poor dining experience. I won’t be coming back, and I definitely wouldn’t recommend it to anyone looking for quality food.

Casablanca was very good. They offer a beautiful patio view and plenty of space inside as well. Our party was large (12) and we still got our food very quickly. I had the shrimp po boy. I'd recommend this place for any occasions and the prices were reasonable. The only knock is that this place is sorta difficult to find behind the hotels.

Not sure why this place has only 3 stars cause my experience was great! We went for my birthday dinner and the food was delicious and tasted fresh. The ambiance is nice and chill and the views are beautiful! we sat inside but with a perfect view of the bay. The prices for food were very reasonable specially that it is Miami. The cocktail were amazing and so cheap! probably the best deal in the area. No complaints on the service. Glad I picked this restaurant, afterwards we went walking in the park next door. It was a great day!

I was super excited to take my mom here for Mother's Day dinner, but everything was kind of running a bit slow :( Our server came fast which was great. He got our drinks and then our appetizers. But it took an hour after our order was taken for our entrees to come out. Our server didn't check up on us between or anything. Once we got our food everything tasted great. The restaurant itself has a great view of the marina and has a very coastal vibe.

As you enter, you're greeted by the host and when you walk through the restaurant the ambiance matches the theme of the restaurant and it being on the water. I went with my parents for Mother's Day and the service was decent, I believe they were short staff for it being a holiday. However, the food was amazing along with the view of the water while we were eating. I enjoyed it and so did my family, I recommend coming early around 5 pm or when it opens so the service can be great for your first experience.

Let's start with the view, amazing! Sat outside and it was nice and breezy. The service was great, staff were very nice and tentative. Food was great! Tried just about everything on the menu, very satisfied

You can never go wrong with all you can eat brunch at Casablanca. Everything is delicious, well seasoned, and plentiful. So many options to choose from and the drinks stay flowing. Every group of friends I bring here always love it. Good service and water views with a good price. A win is a win!

We took our dear friend there for a Birthday celebration. The restaurant is next to the bay. Our table has a wonderful bay view. The food was fresh and amazing! They had 50cents oyster special. Among 4 girls, we ordered 6 dozen! The water was sho shocked and couldn't believe it. The drinks were delicious, the appetizers were delicious. We also ordered the whole fish and steak. What a fablous meal! The service was friendly and fast. I will definitely go back :-)

View is great. Service was good but fish was not fresh and a little fishy. Plantains were good.

A bit overpriced for the amount of food you get. Ordered room service, the pork belly was tender and juicy but other than that not worth the price.

We visited this place while in Miami, and I wish I had paid attention to the reviews. Despite the pleasant balcony and good vibes, the food and service were disappointing. The fish was overcooked, and the lobster was rubbery. The prices were high, which didn't match the quality of the food. Service was slow, surprisingly so given that only three tables were occupied. On a positive note, the tuna tartare and octopus were quite good, and the bay view during dinner was lovely.

Stopped in a drink at the bar outside. The ambiance felt like an older Italian restaurant which we loved. The bartenders w very attentive and personable. We're looking forward to coming and having a nice sit down dinner in their beautiful inside seated restaurant

Great view , good food , 20% gratuity is automatically added to your bill Happy hr has 1/2 off drinks and appetizers

Went to Casablanca on the bay for a family dinner and it was great! Very nice views, good service and the food was good! The restaurant itself is a bit outdated but that didn't take away fro nether experience.

It's one of those Hard to find places but it's located inside the hotel. And it has the most amazing view. We sat outside on the balcony and we enjoyed our brunch tremendously ., fresh food and great air!! Definitely can be romantic place for couples !! Buffet style but our waiter was super kind.

Food was delicious, the music was great and our server Anggelica was amazing. Made my birthday brunch an unforgettable one.

On May 16th, my family visited Casablanca on the Bay to celebrate our late patriarch's birthday and our youngest member's prom night. Our bartender, Danielle, was intuitive, kind, and efficient, and our server, Shabeily, was delightful. However, the experience soured when the restaurant ran out of regular ketchup, offering only an in-house mango version my sister disliked. Despite repeated requests, servers failed to bring regular ketchup, eventually delivering excessive amounts of what was clearly tomato paste--not ketchup, as confirmed by my chef mother and my own kitchen experience. The manager, Maria Paz, who had been drinking at the bar, approached our table with a hostile "What seems to be the problem?" Instead of addressing our concerns, she smugly insisted everything was made in-house, dismissing our ability to distinguish ketchup from paste. Worse, she mocked us with the tomato paste, prompting my mother to confirm with the chef in charge or so we thought, Lupe, that it was indeed paste. We then saw Lupe reprimanding Maria Paz and laughing about the incident, which added to the unprofessionalism. Maria Paz's behavior--drinking on the job, hostility, refusal to apologize, and mocking customers--ruined our night. Poor management overshadows the staff's efforts, and I'll never return to this poorly run establishment. Better off going to any other locations or just a simple Flannigans won't disappoint like this.

I came here for a Miami spice month . The service was good but the food was okay . I had the beef tostones . They tasted Kim's of soggy and wet . I wasn't a fan ... I had the salmon which was a 3 out of 5 . Not the Best But not the worst . My friend loved it though so it's just preference. She had a friend snapper which I thought was delicious. For dessert we had the key lime pie and the chocolate turn over . Both desserts were amazing . Overall the food in my opinion wasn't anything special compared to other seafood spots I've been too.

Waitress was rude and seemed like we were inconveniencing her. We walked out. Made me suspicious that they would be dead at 7pm on a Friday night. Perhaps that's why. Menu was over priced. Didn't order.

Very disappointed. We booked a last minute reservation. Once we arrived and they told us that we could not be served. No call no nothing. Hostess stated that they were under staffed and someone from the kitchen quit. As a restaurant worker my self i totally understand this inconvenience. But we should have been notified and they should not have taken more reservations on the site. We also paid for parking and were not compensated for this unfortunate situation.

This is a beautiful spot, right on the bay in Edgewater. But this is also a very mediocre clip joint that overcharges for a bad buffet, adds on a full throated service charge (for a buffet), and charges $30 more on Saturday than the weekdays, and $20 more than that, for good measure, on Sunday. That means it's $89 for banquet food on the second floor of a big hotel's dreary attached mall. Yes, it's pretty and on the bay. There's no signage, by the way, and parking brings you up another $12 with validation. So what do you get? Chafing dishes filled with forgettable choices, like soggy braised ribs labeled bbq but not, mahi fingers, a paella with thinly sliced calamari and a few mussels and large, beautiful, but overcooked prawns (that are a lot of work to peel) in a vat of yellow rice that had the consistency of oatmeal. The pixanha was ok. The cold seafood pokes and ceviches were ok, neither good nor bad. There was a sushi area but no one making them and a few sad little pieces that looked unwrapped from a supermarket. The breakfast items were in a chafing dish if oversalted eggs, bacon and sausage, and these chicken waffle popsicles that were dried out McNuggets. The key lime pie and flan were nice. The cut up fresh pineapple and strawberries were fine. The servers were polite and came by for drinks and water. At this price there should have been an omelet station and someone making the sushi to order. The pity here is that a lot of reasonably good provisions were prepared in a very mediocre way in a very pretty setting, but there are way too many other choices in South Florida to ever return here.

Service 4 stars Food 3 stars Ambiance 3 stars Getting to this hotel restaurant is a bit of a challenge. A lovely outdoor table was waiting for us. For starters, I wanted to reminisce on thr Rockefeller oysters from New Orleans but these were missing Parmesan. We asked for a side and it made it better. The second appetizer was the Peruvian ceviche which was also missing the rocoto spice - we asked for a side of it and made it better. The seafood parillada was enough for 4 people. We couldn't eat more than half of it but it was the best plate of the night. For dessert, we ordered a flan and a tres leches. The flan was too thick and not soft like a Cuban flan - the consistency was more like the Venezuelan quesillo. The tres leches was good but too sweet for me. Overall, this place was just ok.

They had no lobster and the food was not very good. Service was bad as well and parking is $25 crazy

Great food, a bit over priced though. server was barely around and couldn't understand a lot of what we were asking. over all baller spot and good vibes.

If you can get past the construction material when you walk in, the thick grease smudges on the door to the lovely outdoor dining area, the bay is certainly a draw, given, multiple flooring grades outdoors so watch your step! Way too many better choices in the area to waste your $ here.

I think this is the best Sunday brunch. It was even better before Covid but it's still good. The DJ on Sunday always keeps it surprisingly funky. Keep keeping it funky my boy. Happy hour is wonderful. See you there.

First unlimited mimosas, mojitos or margarita's you got me sold. The food presentation was great. A lot to choose from. Not a lot of breakfast items so if your looking for more breakfast this isn't it. For the seafood lovers they had raw oysters shrimp and fish ceviche. I would definitely go back. Reservations highly recommended. We were staying at the Marriott which is adjoined so we were lucky enough to do a walk in but we were there when it first opened.

Food was excellent. Tried all the happy hour appetizers. Amazing. Main menu looks great. Definitely on the list for a return dinner visit. Staff was great. Great views of bay.

The restaurant is on the second floor, shared between a hotel and a little shopping mall. We sat right at the window with a beautiful view. The complimentary smoked fish dip was fantastic. However, I feel that the grilled octopus could have stayed a bit longer on the grill. Nothing major just our preference. The tuna tartar was just amazing- the tuna was so fresh and tender to die for. The ribeye steak was huge and the seafood Au gratin just amazing very creamy and so fulfilling. For dessert we had the tres leches must confess we ate better one but the Guava cheesecake made up for it.

Food and service was terrible. Balcony was nice but nothing else lived up to their high prices.

Food was overpriced for the quality. Lobster was rubbery. Fish dry. Service was okay. Very disappointed.

We came here for the Wednesday happy hour from 4 to 7pm with FREE OYSTERS!! Yes I'm serious, each person gets a free plate! Well drinks are half off and also appetizers half off. WHAT A DEAL!!!! seriously can't beat it for a happy hour!!! Great staff. Great views. Funny DJ.

I came here with 3 girls on a Sunday around 1pm. The menu on their QR code on the table said the brunch was $59, but when the bill came it was $69 per person. The price was pretty deceptive. The very poor manager, David, described no reason why the QR price was different from the online price. After some discussion, he didn't honor their price from their menu. Although, I planned on bringing my fiancé here, I will not. The food was okay. The drinks were okay. The service was okay. I won't return, until they have a more cohesive price and a better manager.

We were here for brunch on Saturday and we were very impressed with the presentation when we were greater inside the restaurant. However, once we sat, service was mediocre and the food was not good. The brunch is a buffet style that costs $39. I wasn't able to find $39 worth of food that I liked. Food wasn't hot, seemed like it was not fresh either. When we were there the brunch buffet was the only option so maybe their regular menu is better.

The service was great. The food was delicious. Had a lobster with fish. Excellent dish.

We've had dinner at Casablanca on a few occasions now. Mostly because of its location near our place and also that we can get seating on the water. There's specials like free oysters and also a menu for Miami spice you can try. Everything we've had has been tasty and no complaints there. There's plenty of options for drinks and bottles of wine that fall within various ranges. Pricing is typical of Miami, particularly within a hotel. The service isn't ever the most friendly here. I get it, there's really not a need for it since the prices are up there and everyone seems to be okay with the food, but it's what would probably raise the ratings of this place even on Yelp .. if the servers were actually friendly, warm, or took the time to offer more helpful info on the menu items.

Great service and delicious food. I had the Crispy Coconut Shrimp & husband had Seafood Cerviche & cocktails from the Happy Hour menu. Loved it!

Took my wife to what's advertised as one of the best seafood restaurants in Miami and that has a great brunch, nothing of that was true, the food was horrible, plates were dirty, nothing that we tried was worth the 100 dollars we spent, was supposed to have live music the worse part was when my wife went for the salad and is was full of mosquitos it was disgusting and no one of the staff was paying any attention of how bad everything was. Never going back to that place and recommend you don't go either.

Let me just begin by saying... there are zero signs in the street indicating where this place is. We drove in circles, stopped several times looking for a sign pointing towards where it is. We decided to park and walk. Waze kept showing that it was behind the Hilton Grand Doubletree hotel. When we walked by the Marina, located in the back of the hotel, we FINALLY, saw a banner. We went up the stairs on the side of the building, which looked more like service stairs. When we walked in, the hostess told us that wasn't the entrance but either way it was okay we walked in through that door :/ We were seated indoor . During the weekend they offer a buffet, one set price and it's unlimited. To me their food was decent, nothing out of this world. I mean, it's a buffet, we can't expect luxury dishes. The service was great, I will definitely give them that. When we left we walked through the hotel, and it's like going back in time of how outdated it is .

Great atmosphere & ambiance is excellent, the views are phenomenal. Overpriced for frozen seafood and honestly afraid to eat raw seafood. The bartenders nothing rave about & drinks are overpriced. Service, no one speaks English

The service was terrible. Asked for a manager and was told the person was "too busy." The food was ok or inedible depending on what you order. Highly overpriced to be treated like a burden for no apparent reason. Throw a rock and you'll find a restaurant that has better food and wants your business. Don't ask for anything extra for your meal because they will not accommodate it.

I'd like to preempt this by saying that we had the worst server ever. First and foremost...it took 1 hour and 23 mins to get our food. Our waiter never asked if we wanted drinks. He took our order and left. Never to be seen again (exaggerating but really was almost non existent service) We had to ask another waiter to take our drink order. He was awesome. Food arrived and I'd say the only good meal way the snapper. And that was awesome. The fettuccine with shrimp had no taste. It could have been milk thickened with flour and no cheese. The shrimp scampi had no butter... like at all. The crab stuffed shrimp was ok. Cold. Must have sat under a heat lamp. Can't remember what the other dish was... guess that speaks volumes. The desserts did look good but after 2 hours and 10 mins we really just wanted to leave. Oh and add to this how loud the place was.. so we couldn't really talk without screaming. So that was a nice touch. We all agreed. Never going back and won't recommend to the other conference attendees.

We decided to try out the brunch here because they have a pretty good seafood buffet and unlimited drinks. I think you get your money worth when it comes to options for the buffet and unlimited drinks included mimosas, mojitos and margaritas. My niece and I were surprised at how lively it was but we enjoyed it. So if you want a club like experience for brunch then this is your place. There is DJ and the music is loud and some customers will get up and dance while enjoying their music.

They have another location I been to before but this one is my favorite!! The food, the ambiance and the service here is 5 stars! Larry our server needs a raise! Located behind the Double Tree with indoor and outdoor seating. Obviously on a beautiful day choose to take a breath of fresh air by the water. Happy hour starts at 3 with half off appetizers and raw bar! It also includes drinks like mimosa, margaritas, tequila sunrise ect. Try the Rockefeller oysters it's a must ! The Peruvian ceviche was so juicy flavorful and just overall mouth watering. I am a seafood lover so trust my judgment. Now the grilled octopus which apparently was the most popular on the menu as the appetizer was our least favorite. See you soon

The service was attentive and swift, but the food was not as expected. The coconut shrimp and the ceviche were good. The crabcake was lukewarm. The skirt steak was ordered pink, but not bloody. It came almost raw, but when I sent it back, the outside was charred and the inside still red, not pink. Unfortunately the vegetables and fried onions were now cold. I didn't have to pay for this meal, but overall not a good experience.

The good part was the oysters. The service and price for mediocre food not worth going. I don't believe they deserve a 20% service charge Nevermind an additional tip! Pfft. Don't stop here... so many other places worth the money all around!

Very overpriced. Place like this could offer free bread, but don't. Not too friendly staff.

I've lived in this building since Feb. I've been to Casablanca three times. For miami , the happy hour is reasonably priced, but for the quality of "happy hour food", it's over-priced. The happy hour wine is VERY good and the fish spread they give you for free (an Amuse-bouche). is very good but the chips they give with it are always soggy. The crab cakes are good but, in my humble opinion, they are the only good appetizer. The rest are bland and unremarkable. Even the ceviche and I've had some amazing ceviche in miami. They serve it with plantain chips which are also soggy. The service is not great. They seem nice, but all three times you have to wait for drinks , refills, water, to order and to pay. Could be better. Wish It was because the view is great and I'm in the building.

Good appetizers such as the Grilled Octopus and the Fried Calamari. Amazing view of the bay. That's it. Everything else was so and so. Just like any other restaurant these days, this was understaffed so service was slow. It's a seafood restaurant but as soon as we sat at our table they told us they did not receive the delivery so they had no crab and no fish but salmon and mahi mahi. The Grilled Seafood Plate sounded like a good choice but it was mainly calamari and a piece of mahi mahi. Nothing special. One more thing, stay away from the dulce de leche crepes! Weird taste. Overall disappointed.

I went today for their Saturday brunch and the food was great with a large variety of dishes. Our server, Yudiel, was very attentive and service was excellent. Not only the food was great but the music and view
