Big Fish

Description:

• This scenic seafood shack on the Miami River is a real catch -- if you can find it. Hard to locate but well worth the search, Big Fish's remote locale keeps many people biting. In fact, some Italian options were added to its all-seafood menu in the hopes of luring more people, and that worked, too. Big Fish has a sweeping view of the Miami skyline and some of the freshest catches around. But the spectacular setting may be the real draw, right there on the Miami River where freighters, fishing boats, dinghies, and sometimes yachts slink by to the amusement of faithful diners who no longer have to fish around for a charming, serene seafood restaurant. However, you should beware of Friday nights, when Big Fish turns into a big happy-hour scene.
