Set in Miami’s historic Women’s Club, Klaw serves luxe surf and turf with show-stopping Norwegian king crab and a rooftop bar boasting waterfront views.
"Brunch at Klaw feels like an experience reserved for villains—like you’d have to live on an island of stolen Prada bags to enjoy eggs with a view this good. But luckily all you did was take an elevator to the sixth floor. Brunch is served on Klaw's rooftop, which overlooks Biscayne Bay. Some of the seating is technically inside, but they keep the doors open and every table has a panoramic view of emerald waters. The food is just as lovely. You can go full Dr. Evil and order caviar service and a massive seafood tower while trying to devise a way to attach laser beams to a shark's head. Or stick to oysters in shallot and cucumber mignonette, guava cream cheese waffles, or our favorite: the duck steak and eggs." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"If you want to drink your martini with an aerial view of Biscayne Bay so dramatic it might make you unironically say something like “This is my city,” then take the golden elevator up to Klaw’s rooftop bar. Their martini comes with a mignonette vermouth and an adorable star-shaped lemon peel. You can also drink it in Klaw’s main dining room while eating $100-plus steaks—another martini-appropriate scenario. But the rooftop is a good call if you just want to drink, snack, and gaze into the distance." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Featuring enviable waterfront views and the neighborhood’s only rooftop bar, this Edgewater restaurant spreads romantic atmosphere over a multi-story space. As the name alludes, seafood is the star of the menu at Klaw, with king crab sourced from Norway while various dry-aged meats are brought in from Nebraska. There are dramatic (and pricey) seafood towers ($120-$265), caviar service (starting at $125) and dishes like Spanish sole and sake-cured salmon with trufffle ponzu." - Eater Staff
"The first thing you should know about Klaw is that it is expensive—even for Miami (and even for a waterfront restaurant in Miami). But Klaw delivers on quality. This Edgewater spot revolves around two big dishes: steak and Norwegian king crab, both of which are delicious and sourced so meticulously that your server could probably write a 10,000-word biography on where they came from. The $185 Snake River Farms striploin we ate here remains the greatest steak we’ve ever consumed. And we get it if you just heard $185 steak and thought, “Yeah, no.” There are cheaper options (like a 14-ounce chateaubriand for $90) but if you want to check this place out before committing to a full meal, go for Happy Hour at the rooftop bar Monday through Saturday from 5-7pm.

"Klaw, a stunning multi-level restaurant inside Edgewater’s former Miami Women’s Club building, has a rooftop bar with expansive waterfront views. As the name implies, seafood is its main focus, particularly the sizable Norwegian king crab sold by the pound. The restaurant also offers a variety of dry-aged meats and a well-rounded bar program that features cocktails that complement the seafood-centric menu, such as gin-based options infused with marine botanicals and vodka drinks garnished with caviar. With prices that range between $25 and $350 per dish, it doesn’t make for an inexpensive night out, so put it on the list for the next time a special occasion arises." - Olee Fowler
