Top Best Seafood Restaurants in Golden Isles

"The Florida coast shines at Stiltsville Fish Bar, home to locally sourced fish, in Bayshore. It helps that the restaurant is stationed in a prime location on the Intracoastal Waterway, so you can dine by the water as you feast on food pulled out of the water. You’ll want to share some local blue crab cakes, paired with pickled kohlrabi and slaw, along with an order of sweet corn spoon bread, plated in a mini cast-iron dish and swiped with buttermilk cream."

"The American bar scene will encompass delicious seafood with gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options. Choose from grilled jerk wings, coconut shrimp, smoked fish dip, or decide on the peel and eat shrimp. Salad options include a delicious in-house papaya dressing for your delicious Coconut’s house salad, steak, or sashimi tuna salad."

"Located in Kimpton's Epic Hotel, this restaurant's setting affords skyline views of both Miami (to the north and west) and Biscayne Bay (to the east and south) that guests find truly breathtaking--that is, if they aren't too focused on the incredible cuisine. Executive Chef Wolfgang Birk gleans most of his seafare--items such as jumbo lump crab salad with spicy seared watermelon, heirloom tomato, avocado, mint and basil or yellowfin tuna with mixed grains, smoked black beans, shrimp guacamole and ginger juice--either locally or from the region of the ocean for which the restaurant is named, Area 31, one of the only self-sustaining spots that is said to be left in the ocean. Meat and pasta dishes are just as delicious and contain sustainable items from nearby farms and other trusted sources."

"Located on the top floor of the EPIC Hotel, trendy Area 31 has the reputation of the best view in town as well as exceptionally good food and cocktails. Sunset over the Biscayne Bay and the city skyline from the restaurant’s poolside terrace is absolutely breathtaking, but Executive Chef Wolfgang Birk manages to draw the attention of his guests with his frequently changing menu that is based on sustainable ingredients and focuses on local seafood with a Spanish twist. The menu is extensive but the chef’s fresh ceviche, crudos and tartares are legendary."

"Key BiscayneNo restaurant in Miami has seen more weddings, bar mitzvahs, quinces, and over-aggressive first dates than the venerable Rusty Pelican. Its spectacular view of the Miami skyline is unrivaled and, while it once had a fairly-dated menu a new chef brought the place new life about three years ago, and now it’s actually worth going to for the steaks as much as it is for the glittering downtown view.How to book: Reserve via OpenTable or order take-out and delivery via Uber Eats."

"With panoramic views of beautiful Biscayne Bay and the Downtown Miami skyline, the outdoor seating at Rusty Pelican is some of the most sought-after in town. In fact, it's the sort of place you'll definitely want to get a reservation for. Get into the spirit of the nautically-themed dining room and order one of the seafood specialties."

"Whether you're visiting Miami for the first or 15th time, a meal at the Rusty Pelican is a memorable experience. Vistas of the bay and Miami...Read More"

"Fort Lauderdale's beautiful beaches are on full display at S3: The restaurant offers Atlantic views from nearly every seat. Scenery aside, this place has plenty of appeal, including multicourse share-a-plate-style meals, great drinks and a sultry indoor-outdoor bar scene with live DJs and fire pits. There are ample reasons to head indoors, too, including a well-appointed Southeast Asian atmosphere and a menu of global eclectic fare, like sushi, oak-grilled steaks, mac 'n' cheese with smoked Gouda and prosciutto, and brisket sliders."

"Located at the Hilton hotel, the restaurant was a perfect spot for lunch, with sofas overlooking the beach. Despite being known for its sushi, but we couldn’t leave the S3 without trying their cocktails as well. You can even order a sampler of 3 cocktails if you can’t decide which one you want to get."

"From the restaurateurs and culinary masterminds behind South Florida hot spots such as YOLO, TRP Taste, Boatyard, Spatch and Rooftop,"

"This Gainesville import made a name for itself by serving up inventive rolls like the Cobra Kai filled with red onion, tomato, imitation crab, tempura flakes, lemon, Loch Duart salmon, garlic-shiso pesto, and aged balsamic or the Black Dragon made with soft shell tempura, mascarpone, cucumber, scallion, topped with avocado, smoked eel, eel sauce, spicy mayo. Its daily happy hour is also a can’t miss, make this restaurant a go-to spot for many."

"Doraku Sushi, a sushi bar in Flamingo Lummus, is another go-to, with four stars out of 920 Yelp reviews. Head over to 1104 Lincoln Road to see for yourself. Doraku set out to reinvent the Japanese restaurant by capturing the flavors of Latin Cuisine while staying true to Japanese sushi traditions."

"Doraku offers a menu that has something for everyone whether they enjoy sushi or not. A well-rounded menu also provides wide selection for those … […]"

"Here we have a bar in Fort Lauderdale that is located right in the beautiful Marina Bay. You can get to this bar and grill by car or boat. You can choose to enjoy the relaxing waterfront while drinking or dining, or you can enjoy your time here in their comfortable dining room."

"Rendezvous is truly one of Fort Lauderdale’s best kept secrets. The food is excellent  and reasonably priced. The drinks are cold, arrive fast and are served at an indoor/outdoor bar."

"Family-friendly grill on the water featuring classic American eats, plus live music & a big patio. Open for lunch and dinnerDress code: CasualPhone: +1 954-797-0054"

"If they're eating at Atlas Meat Free Deli, they're chowing down on an impossibly meaty menu. This Little River food truck and soon-to-be brick-and-mortar deli is "vegan food for carnivores," in the words of owner Ryan Bauhaus. The menu is stacked with towering sandwiches and sizable specials."

"Hollywood has one of the highest concentrations of Peruvians in the country, so it should come as no surprise that the country’s cuisine should show up twice on this list. Peruvian sandwiches have become increasingly popular in South Florida, and this is one place that takes the fairly minimalist “sanguche” quite seriously. Its fried pork and sweet potato sandwich is their signature."

"Located in the Hollywood Circle, J28 Sandwich Bar offers sandwiches with a Peruvian twist. The restaurant offers fresh bread made daily, fresh ingredients and a creative menu. This casual, clean and inexpensive restaurant doesn’t disappoint."

"We were hungry lol I must mention and complement this restaurant for their food. The sandwiches were... (754) 208-2902Order online"

"Formerly known as the American Airlines Arena, the FTX Arena is home to the Miami Heat basketball team as well as serving as a venue for various shows and events. With almost 20,000 seats, this is a popular and fun spot to watch an NBA game while in Miami. Located along Biscayne Bay with easy access thanks to public transportation, everyone in the family will enjoy a visit to this famous spot."

"The 3,400 square-foot oceanfront basketball arena is the home court of the NBA’s Miami Heat. The 19,00 capacity arena has been awarded the Leed Green Building certification for being an energy-efficient building. When there isn’t an exciting basketball game, the American Airlines Arena hosts more than 80 music and other events, including WWE Smackdown."

"Because South Beach is such a broad description, and the varying beaches here go on for miles, we thought we'd narrow it down. Lummus Park, the area of the beach located along Ocean Drive from 5th to 15th Street, is the all-encompassing South Beach experience. This is the strip of sand that is always the most crowded, which makes for excellent people watching."

"Otherwise, drop off your bike along Ocean Drive and grab a spot on the beach, Lummus Beach, which runs from around 6th to 14th streets. This is a beach for locals and tourists alike, and the spread of humanity—supermodels, families and even topless tanners—make this a go-to spot for people-watching."

"Just shy of the beachfront, visiting West Lake Park is ones of the best things to do in Hollywood, Florida if you love to Kayak. You see, here they have a heap of waterways to test your skills and master the art of bobbing and not crashing into fellow kayakers. Trust me, that’s the biggest challenge… I always end up smacking into Yaya, which usually results in a few splashes from his paddle!"

"West Lake and its surrounding mangrove forest occupy the center of the park and are the domain of boaters and kayakers who put in from the ramps at the main entrance. Boaters can head south to exit to the Stranahan River at the south end of the lake. Kayakers have some mazy meanders to explore where the canal meets the lake."
