An embodiment of “The American Dream” since 1966, Garcia’s Seafood Grille & Fish Market remains ever-popular amidst a global pandemic, the brothers who fled Castro and Communism continuing to send their fleet out and present Miami with fresh Fish daily.
Begun as a market and wholesaler, but soon adding a Restaurant to scenic environs along the Miami River, it is with reservations that guests are offered a choice of indoor or outdoor seating, the latter an obvious choice for most as yachts drift by providing scenery along with a bevy of Birds.
Still family owned, the décor a collection of relics alongside aged photos, it was from laminated menus that three courses were selected, the sizable sample of Fish Dip creamy with a balance of Herbs while Conch Fritters unfortunately saw the Mollusk lost to oil and Peppers.
Debating a few daily specials from the blackboard, though many were already sold out in addition in to a handful of menu items, Grilled Grouper soon arrived alongside mixed Seafood, both priced appropriately and prepared well while sides such as fried Plantains attest to Garcia’s heritage.
Disappointed to learn Tres Leches was not available, a recurrent theme throughout South Florida, Dessert instead consisted of Flan infused by Coconut beneath toasty Caramel and Key Lime Pie that unfortunately lacked in terms of assertiveness.
