50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Miami Lakes

“What an experience we had at Butchers Cuisine in Miami Lakes! I was honestly surprised to find the restaurant fairly empty on a Saturday night—more people need to know about how incredible this place is (hence this review). From the start, we were greeted with a warm welcome by Alexa, who also served us throughout the evening. She introduced herself right away and brought us menus that were unlike anything I’ve ever seen—unique and fun (I’ll leave out the details as a surprise for new guests).

We began with an appetizer, and let me just say: it was the best croqueta I’ve ever tasted—and that’s saying a lot as a local with Latin roots. Shortly after, fresh bread arrived at the table, piping hot and clearly baked in-house. As a baker myself, I can say with confidence those were made from scratch, and they were outstanding.For entrées, we ordered the churrasco and the octopus. The churrasco was cooked perfectly to our requested medium-rare—melt-in-your-mouth tender and trimmed to perfection. The octopus, which can often be hit or miss, was flawless: tender, not chewy, and with excellent texture. When I asked Alexa if she recommended it, her smile said it all, and she was right.

We enjoyed the meal so much that we wanted to thank the owner directly. Instead, we had the chance to speak with the chef, who we congratulated on delivering such a phenomenal experience. Alexa remained attentive throughout, checking in on us regularly without ever being overbearing.

We will absolutely be returning. I regret not capturing photos of the food, ambiance, and overall experience, but I’ll be sure to do so next time and update this review. Butchers Cuisine, if you keep this up and apply for Michelin recognition, you may very well earn your first star!“

“Friendly, comfortable and cozy this is another Blue Collar gem. I came for the happy hour 5-6:30 and had three items and a amber ale draft. Now that that’s done; I’m coming back for the regular menu. Clams casino, oysters on the half shell and seared scallops were absolutely the bomb! Try it!“

“Amazing food and great service.“

“Excelente comida y muy rápida atención“

“The first time I went to Ogawa, it was on a fluke at the suggestion of a friend of mine who had been there before. I had no idea what to expect. I walked into a very petite intimate restaurant with only. 11 seats. The experience from start to finish was extraordinary. As a New Yorker, who is also in the hospitality business, I have high standards especially around sushi and Japanese cuisine. The food, wine and sake pairings and attention to detail were outstanding. Each course was better than the next. We met the sushi chef, the culinary chef and the owner. They were so lovely and made our experience so special. I look forward to my next visit.“

“The spicy shrimp and lobster boil was phenomenal! Packed with flavor, cooked to perfection and juicy. 10/10!“

“The food was spectacular, super fresh and full of flavor. The service was amazing, and being able to choose your own seafood makes the experience even better. I don’t know if something changed, but now the food and service are 10/10. Highly recommended this is a place you have to try.

Thank you, Lía and Made, for the excellent service.“

“Conch salad is very delicious there's conch through out your whole experience of the conch salad especially the top and if you get a bowl and pour it out the cup there's even more conch at the bottom. I'm not a big fan of spicy foods and the conch salad was spiced just enough for my spicy tolerance level. So if you ever in the miami area go check out CONCH TOWN they want disappoint.“

“The food was fresh and delicious!! I highly recommend eating here!!! Your tummy will thank you!!! 💞“

“This company is located at the Yellow Green Farmers Market in Hollywood FL on Sheridan St. booth #640….don't get Ceviche from any other Ceviche places there. I ordered the Classic Ceviche, and was not disappointed! It was fresh, and delicious! The owner and his wife were very friendly and provided very good customer service. They make the ceviche fresh to order. I will return, and recommend this restaurant if you happen to go to this Farmers Market. It’s not right at the entrance but worth the walk thru!! 👍“

“We stayed at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa for 2 nights - we had 3 meals at Council Oak. Once in the dining room and twice at the bar. All I can say is WOW. The food was excellent and the service was the best I have seen in years anywhere... Everyone was attentive.. Smiling.. Made us feel like they were there for us! My wife and I are still taking about it. Great Job!!“
