Fresh seafood market and restaurant with fried fish
"They just don’t make them like Plaza Seafood anymore. Part fish market, part seafood ventanita, this restaurant has been serving Allapattah locals generous portions for decades. It’s still a fantastic, affordable spot to get an overstuffed takeout box full of the kinds of local seafood restaurants these days are charging a used Toyota downpayment for. Stop here on a sunny day for an al fresco feast on a round cement table while a beautiful soundtrack of surrounding auto shops provides an ambient clang that’s Miami's version of comforting white noise. If Allapattah had a capitol building, it would be Plaza." - virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo, virginia otazo
"Plaza Seafood is on Miami’s seafood Mount Rushmore. It's been around since 1980 and still serves some of the city's best fish—in soups, ceviche, and fried to crispy perfection. They also have an adjacent seafood market that smells like a fishing pier. If you're not in the mood to cook, go order the fried shrimp and fried fish butterfly from the counter. Get a side of tostones and rice and whisper a small prayer of gratitude to Poseidon while you dip all of the above into the house pink sauce." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"This Allapattah market/restaurant has been around since 1980 and still serves some of the city's best seafood—in soups, ceviche, and fried to crispy perfection. They also have a seafood market that smells like a fishing pier and has fresh snapper, grouper, lobster, shrimp, and more sitting on ice, ready to come home with you. If you're not in the mood to cook, order the fried shrimp and fried fish butterfly from the counter. Get a side of tostones, rice, and whisper a small prayer of gratitude to Poseidon while you dip all of the above into the house pink sauce, which tastes like it was designed by NASA scientists to go with fried seafood." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo

"Allapattah’s Plaza Seafood is the kind of place you go when you want a Styrofoam box stuffed to the brim with fried seafood. Our favorite thing to order here is the fish butterfly, a very affordable portion of great fried fish, rice, beans, and tostones. It's mostly a to-go spot, but they have a little covered patio where you can sit and eat if your food simply smells too good to survive the ride home." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
