Lobster Bar Sea Grille

The service here is impeccable! 5-star experience for sure. Great for date nights or celebratory dinners. The crab cake is by far the best I've had anywhere in South Florida. Highly recommend!

We are delighted with this restaurant. The first thing that catches your eye is the interior. Spacious large room. The waiters service is excellent. A varied menu, I really like everything fishy - it's a paradise). Pleasant atmosphere, the waiters are attentive to their guests. We recommend. You will not regret.

This is the 4th restaurant that I visited during Miami Spice and the most generous one so far. If you're a seafood fan like me, their $39 Miami Spice menu is for sure worth checking out. The portions here are bigger than your average Miami Spice selections including the Surf and Turf with 6 oz Lobster Tail. The restaurant is large and open with an old skool steakhouse feel. It still got full even on a Sunday but luckily there were 2 servers for every table so we received great attention during service. We started with Baby Calamari "Sweet Heat" (lightly fried fresno chilies red and yellow holland peppers edamame) and Jumbo Lump Maryland Crab Cake. The fresh calamari was not rubbery with a nice spicy kick and the crumbling lumps of crab were tasty. For entrees, I got the Surf and Turf (Nova Scotia Lobster Tail w/ Petite Filet Mignon) and my buddies got the New York Strip and Lobster Stuffed Lobster. All I can say is that my Surf and Turf was satisfying, both portion and preparation. Lobster was fresh and meaty, and the filet was juicy medium rare. I had a bite of the stuffed lobster and it was good too. For desserts, we shared the Profiteroles (mini puffs, vanilla ice cream, Valrhona dark choc sauce, sugar roasted almonds), Tropical Cremeux (passion fruit, tonka bean mousse, almond coconut biscuit, sorbet) and Greek Yogurt w/ toasted walnuts. The Cremeux and Profiteroles were, of course, delicious but we didn't expect much from the Greek Yogurt. We were wrong! It was also scrumptious. Definitely not your ordinary yogurt and worth trying. I also tried a couple of cocktails, Morpheus and Mykonos, which were gin-based martinis. Both well prepped, strong and refreshing. And that's what expect from any reputable Seafood and Steakhouse. Great quality, good preparation, and excellent service. Their valet parking starts at 5:30 and I think it's only $10. FYI, metered parking is about $4 per hour in Miami Beach.

Taking advantage of Miami Spice we visited Lobster Bar and Sea Grill. We truly enjoy the experience. We ordered Lobster soup w cognac and small fried calamari that came w a sweet and mild peppery sauce marvelous. As entrees the waffles with lobster morsels, the lobster egg Benedict and filet mignon I had the stuffed lobster all cook to perfection. The service by Cody was the best. The place was full and lively. When the singer came in it was more loud that what our group would have preferred but still a very pleasant way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

The new standard of service in Miami Beach. My boyfriend and I dined here last night, deciding Miami Spice would provide a great reason to give it an affordable try. Initially we were slightly annoyed that we had to wait 30 mins for them to honor our reservation, but the place was packed. The bar tender Weyne hooked it up with the best mojitos we've had, and we're regulars at Havana 1957 - sorry guys, you lost the top spot. Note, unlike many places in South Beach, tip is not included so be generous with the great staff. Once seated, our waiter Thomas was polite yet frank & informative - exactly how I like to be spoken to. He explained the restaurant's concept, made general recommendations, and then guided us toward specifics after hearing our preferences. We really sensed how much Thomas enjoys his job & his pride in his work really made us feel welcomed and appreciated for coming in. We started with the lobster bisque, unique but not anything thrilling, & the crab cake - wow!! I'm from D.C. and hardly ever enjoy blue crab meat in SFL as most venue don't know what "lump meat" really means or they ruin it will weird mixed fillers. I was in awe at how perfectly prepared, tender, and huge the lump crab portions were. It is on par if not better than any DMV area crab cake I've ever had. I had the surf n turf & my boyfriend the tenderloin - my lobster was out of this world and paired with the most surprisingly delicious odd sauce, a mustard honey dipping sauce that for some reason that makes no sense at all went so perfectly well complimenting the natural taste of the lobster - I didn't even touch the side of butter that was provided. The tenderloin was juicy perfection and we were provided an amazing size of blue cheese sauce that was so savory and a perfect compliment to the meat flavor. We were barely able to make it through desert, but both the profiteroles ( first time hearing of these for both of us) & the tropical cremeux were tasty and unique. Cremeux leans heavy in the tangy side. Easily one of the best dinning experiences we've had in a very long time, in quality, taste, and professional prompt service. Highly recommended, we can't wait to return. Well worth the $200 we dropped.

Miami Spice 2019: T'was another successful Miami spice with the most popular dish being the surf n turf! You cant go wrong with the lobster bisque as your appetizer. There are several different entrees available on the menu, although, some of them have an upcharge. Overall, the service, food, and drinks really round this restaurant out to becoming one of my favorite in the Miami area. Will definitely be back, and with more people! Miami Spice 2018: We had a great experience at Lobster Bar! Everything from the above and beyond service making sure you are having a good time, to the tasty food, our experience was top notch! They definitely go above and beyond to make sure you are having a good experience. They also have a great happy hour at the bar until 8pm Highly Recommend: Surf and Turf, lobster bisque.

If you get the opportunity to participate in the Miami Spice restaurant promotions, I say, GO FOR IT! It's a great way to check out a restaurant you've been curious about, or even better.....one that's on the more expensive side. Miami Spice will return in August of 2019. I started off with the Mediterranean Octopus Char-Grilled. It had just the right amount of pickled red onions & capers. The Octopus was succulent. Not rubbery or dried out. Unfortunately my entree was not good. I ordered the Lobster with Fettuccine. The lobster was juicy, but the Fettuccine was so salty, I just couldn't eat it. The waiter was gracious enough to offer another plate of Fettuccine or a different dish, but I declined as it was after 9 O'Clock & I wasn't going to eat pasta two days in a row. Dessert was a Passion Fruit dish. All in all, it was a very nice dining experience. The staff is friendly, & the decor is classy.

The food was very good but some dishes are excessively small. The atmosphere is nice, even though I did not particularly enjoy the music given that it's supposed to be an upscale classy restaurant (pop / emd). Dress code was barely enforced.
