Garcia Seafood Grille

When in Florida, trying the Stone Crab is a must, and Garcia's Seafood Grille is the perfect spot to savor fresh stone crab claws in a casual, relaxed environment. We arrived around opening time and opted to sit outside in the patio area to enjoy the beautiful sunny weather overlooking Miami's seaside. The staff was very friendly and helped us decide which type of stone crab would best suit our tastes. The staff stated that the smaller the size of the stone crab claw, the sweeter it was. Opting for the large stone crab claws struck a perfect balance between size and sweetness. While we did try a few other entrees, the claws were consistently in the spotlight. The Dijon aioli dipping sauce served with the claws added a tasty dimension to the freshness of the stone crab. If you find yourself in Miami, Garcia's is the go-to place for exceptional stone crab claws.

Wife brought me to eat dinner. The staff at entry, the staff attending the tables, and manager were extremely kind. The food was great. Old fashions, are a good choice if you enjoy whiskey. The peanut butter old fashion was something different yet amazing. It batista, did an amazing job taking care of us. If you enjoy seafood, definitely recommend this place. Not to mention it's on the river with a beautiful view.

The fact that 5 is the most amount of stars I can give is my only disappointment. I had good expectations of Garcia's, and they exceeded them anyway. I love that it's both a market and a restaurant for the freshest fish available. The service is friendly and attentive, you really feel like part of the family and are well taken care of. There are so many amazing food options, it's hard to choose. My favourites were the stone crab (potentially the best I've had ever) and the butterflied snapper with crab and rosee sauce. Dining on the upper level overlooking the river was lovely, and the prices are incredibly reasonable considering the location and the top notch quality of the food. I'll definitely plan to go back next time I'm in Miami!

Hubby and I decided to spontaneously go and try Gracias restaurant. It was Amazing!! Food was tasteful, fresh, seasoned to perfection, food came out in a decent amount of time. The service was A1 our waiter Ariel was so nice , helpful and wonderful to talk to. Super clean restaurant and Lets not forget the view was the cherry to top it off. Will definitely return and highly recommend if you are on a date or to come with family and friends. ❤️

This local seafood restaurant next to the water is divine. The parking can be confusing, so we did the valet, but there are parking places around. The freshness of the food, the quality of the cuts, the variety of options, the knowledgeable staff... awesome place for a business meeting, family meal or date night really. I had the blackened mahi-mahi with maduros (fried ripe plantain) and tostones (fried green plantains) and it was the right amount, because we ordered octopus and oysters for starters. The guava cheesecake was nice, just a bit too sweet for me. Next time I'll come I'll likely do starters and the grilled seafood platter that looked scrumptious

Garcia’s is a Miami institution period. If you are looking for a casual place to have really good seafood and amazing service, then this is your place. The servers here treat you like you’re part of their family, the seafood is delicious and fresh, from the boat to your plate type of deal. Love Garcia’s!

So we used Valet which I believe was very reasonably priced. We went in and it was confusing at first but the valet and I believe it was a server or busser directed us very well. We took a peak downstairs and decided to eat upstairs outdoors. The food was delicious I enjoyed all the food. I ordered a Caribbean Punch it was okay. I hate that drinks in Miami are weak sometimes. I was highly disappointed about them not having lobster rolls. Johnny and Marvin very hard working individuals. I think some organization can be done with servers that’s just the management side of me. But overall not bad very chill spot. I loved the music as well it’s not loud but I still wanted to dance the dancer in me.
