WOW!!!!! This place lives up to the hype. Our server Isabella was outstanding. Service is impeccable. Friendly and hospitable without being over the top. Authentic and old school which is refreshing. We ordered the friend chicken, lobster Mac n cheese, scallops, and Caesar salad. All fantastic.
Review for Takeaway part of the restaurant. Main part had 2 hour wait so we just went next door to the more casual part of the restaurant where you can get things to go or to dine in. Everything we tried was very good. Crab bisque was my favorite along with the seafood salad. The salad was huge, perfect entree size. We also shared baked tomato and potato latzke. You order at the register and everything is brought to your table. Honestly if you in it for food and not ambiance this is even better and faster than main restaurant.
Every time I land in Miami Joe's Stone Crab is the first call I make. It has been that way for years and it will stay that way. The stone crabs are the best in the world cold, cracked perfectly, served with that signature mustard sauce that has a little heat to it. You dip, you eat, you order more. That is the whole experience and it does not need anything else. The sides hold their own the creamed spinach, the hash browns, the coleslaw that somehow tastes better here than anywhere else on earth. I always sit outside when the weather cooperates. You watch South Beach go by the palm trees the energy of a city that runs on ambition and sunshine. The wait can be brutal if you do not plan ahead this place does not take reservations for dinner so you either show up early or you wait with everyone else. But it is worth it. Joe's has been operating since 1913 and the line out the door proves that quality outlasts everything. I have taken business partners here, I have taken family, I have come alone and sat at the bar with a beer and a plate of claws. Every version of this experience works. No substitutes exist for this place. If you are in Miami and you eat stone crabs anywhere else you settled. Do not settle.
Absolutely everything here was delicious! The John Dory with brown butter sauce might be the most tasty piece of fish I’ve ever had. The stone crab was fresh and so much flavor. The mignonette for the oysters was fabulous - the texture and flavor was such a great pairing. Our service was quick and friendly and the sommelier Dan was very helpful. From the coat check to the valet parking, everything was wonderful. Inside feels so welcoming and cozy. We will be back!
Amazing experience! This has been our first time visiting Joes stone crab and the experience was phenomenal. Outdoor seating is very cozy, like you are tucked away in some old town square. Our waiter was amazing, didn’t catch his name but he was very nice and attentive. And the crabs of course were really good. The large claws come with 5 per portion, and including the sides that you get is more than enough for a full meal. The key lime pie for the desert was a perfect finally. Will definitely be back!
