I used to eat at Captain's Tavern on a regular basis back in the 90's since I worked across the street. It was also one of my mother's favorite restaurants. When she became too sick to go,we ordered a family sized paella so we could all enjoy. I decided to go on the 26th of this month to celebrate my birthday with my family, (14 of us). The staff went above & beyond for us, our waitress was awesome, & the children enjoyed looking at the fish in the large aquarium, all of us were very satisfied with our meals. I had the Lobster Newburgh, OMG, it was scrumptious & also enjoyed a delicious Margarita, I was also surprised with a delicious slice of key lime pie & the staff sang Happy birthday to me. All in all it was worth returning, I will make sure to continue going to enjoy the delicious food.
This is one of the best seafood restaurants in Miami, a legend. Their wine selection is outstanding so is their service. The owners strive to serve the freshest seafood and meats.
Its like traveling back in time to 1985. The music, the atmosphere nothing has changed... The food was good the kids meals were a great deal especially if your little ones like fresh fish. Everything was fresh and well prepared. The waitress was very nice, friendly and attentive. Overall a good experience.
A bit price (Definetly gone up since last time I was here about a year ago) Food is delicious. Salmon is always excellent and a very good sized portion. First time trying the jambalaya and it was really good. Our favorite appetizer is the Calamari Salad. Excellent choice for our anniversary. Give a try, you regret it.
WOW! The best seafood restaurant in Miami I ever experienced!!! Restaurants like this are extinct in Miami. A typical old-school restaurant that does everything right, from A to Z. Starting with the waiter, Nick. He made us feel like a friend from the moment we arrived. He passionately explained how they do things at Captain, and we were impressed. They serve fresh local seafood, and if they bring something like from Maine, they also assure that the seafood is fresh and rapidly shipped. I have to stress that the PRICES ARE CRAZY ATTRACTIVE for what they offer!!! Even the bottles of wines are super affordable! For appetizers, we had Lobster Nuggets and Stuffed Mushrooms — delicious! The entree we had the 1/2 lb Caribbean Lobster Tail. $34!!!! Insane!!!! It was served deshelled, which is convenient. Also, Nick told us they have a crazy sushi chef who only picks center-cut fish and goes to the market himself and is super passionate about it. So we ordered the Dragon roll, and it was great! It was only $10!!! I still don’t believe it! For the dessert, Nick recommends Bread Pudding w/ Jamaican Rum Sauce… WOW, what a delicious bomb that was! Mouthwatering!!!
Last but not least, they make everything in-house, all the way down to the sauces. They also have a seafood market building next by, so that explains everything. Even the bus boys were exceptionally on top of everything. All in all, I am so happy I found a legit seafood restaurant that has quality seafood for an affordable price, plus service that is extinct in Miami and a good atmosphere overall! A MUST WHEN IN MIAMI!!!!!!!!!!
The best lobster in town. Service Excellent
Place was AMAZING! Ol family feel, great waiter, food was excellent! It's a bit pricey but you get quality so you weigh it out for you..l loved it!
The 2lb lobsters New England or Florida are outstanding. Some of the very best oysters rock I’ve ever had. Miso salmon macadamia pompano yellowtail. Hogfish can never not please. The pear arugula salad superb. Banana cream pie ooh La la. Please bring back the clams
Casino. Perfection. The only thing lacking is a good baked potato but the peas and rice make up for it!! So much to choose from and so many delicacies. Belly clams Alaskan king crab. Stone crabs. Sure they’re expensive but they r everywhere. Wine selection very moderately priced and a great drink pour. I absolutely have loved this place for 40++years and still do.
Classic eatery, and good fish. We had old school Oysters Rockefeller and I a yummy snapper. Oysters could have larger but tasted excellent. Snapper was good but might have been frozen. Husband's rib eye was excellent. Very attentive staff big kudos for them.
