I came for the first time due to bad Yelp reviews that have held me back for years, but family was in town and wanted to try this place, so we went for the Miami Spice lunch. Very nice outdoor experience with a great view of the Miami river and watching boats go by. Appetizers: Shrimp tostones were a pleasant surprise in flavor and very delicious! I was expecting shrimp on dry tostones, but everything was moist and mixed with a satisfying flavorful...hooray...certainly recommended! (Flavor was similar to camarones enchiladas). Fried calamari- can't stand alone and too much oil at the bottom of the dish, but the aioli saved this dish and made it good. The other sauce it came with was not at all impressive. Entree: Braise mahi-mahi- horrible! The accompanying veggies were delicious, but the dolphin was dry and flavorless to my great surprise at restaurant where fish is their specialty! I couldn't eat it and even had to send it back, BUT...they were graciously accommodating and without a problem replaced it with Alfredo fettuccine w/ shrimp, which was good. Desserts: Key lime pie was average and then crepes with ice cream were blah. They need a better quality vanilla ice cream. Service: Excellent Cuban server with spiked hair and I think it was dyed (sorry I forgot his name). Very attentive and helpful. Parking: $5 valet read more

Horrible experience. They give power to this host girl she doesn't know what she's doing. Awful Food is no good paella is disgusting salty the service is horrible Horrendous experience read more

The oysters didn't look very fresh; but for the price of a dozen for 18 bucks I shouldn't be surprised. They were also all "mystery oysters"; the menu only says "oyster", which I may not have questioned if they had been of similar shape and size. They were pretty deflated in aspect and weak of taste and ranged wildly in size. Still too attached to the shell. Our other two dishes were the shrimp tostones and the octopus. The tostones were covered in a mound of cheese which overwhelmed the whole thing since the shrimp was also very well seasoned. The octopus was the best part; the service was great. read more

Casablanca Seafood Bar & Grill, is a Miami River staple! Outdoor seating is a must when visiting, as you can watch the beautiful boats go by. Casual yet classy ambiance, with great, fresh seafood food -- What more can you ask for?! Started with the Crab Cakes and Conch Fritters.. And for dinner had the Whole Snapper **ask for extra lime** Lychee Martini and Pineapple Martini complimented my dinner very well. Seafood craving satisfied! read more

Casablanca is my go to seafood restaurant. It's a great place to have a great meal at reasonable prices for the high quality food and service without the pretentious vibe. Try the classic mojito and some oysters. The grouper and sopon marinero ( seafood broth with lobster tail, mussels, clams, and calamari) were delicious! This place always satisfies my seafood cravings! read more

There is something about the seafood in Miami that it tastes so good. Casablanca not only serves delicious food, but they also have seating by the water. The bar is fantastic, and the ambiance lets you know and feel that you are in Miami. I had a seafood medley that had grilled shrimp, calamari, octopus, fish, clams, oysters, scallops and veggies on the bottom. It was DELICIOUS! We sat right in front of the bar, and our servers were pretty amazing. We didn't stay for dessert as food was very filling, but the dessert tray looked pretty amazing. You should totally try this place when in Miami. We loved it. read more

If the bathroom is any indication of the kitchen's cleanliness- just stay away. It is COVID - the basics like soap, paper towels and toilet paper were not in the ladies room. Pathetic. Filthy, Filthy, Filthy. If there is no soap for customers to wash their hands, do you think the staff is washing their hands?!? The food is just meh. Better seafood is easily found elsewhere. The level of noise is insane from all the party boats. The one thing I can say is our waiter, Michel was very nice. I hope management and ownership read this because they really need to take care of the lack of cleanliness and disgusting bathrooms. read more

Waterfront views & fresh-caught seafood are the main events at this upscale eatery & fish market. I'm not a fan of oysters because I always have to spit them out BUT here, the oysters are perfect and now I'm a fan of oysters but only here. If you're lucky you might see a manatee in the water. Boats are frequent, the atmosphere is perfect and it's a few blocks from the Wharf. read more

For the appetizers i had the coconut shrimp and my friend had the tuna tartar both were amazing,for the entree i had the paella which was perfect and finally for dessert we had the coconut flan ! everything up to the service was excellent , will definitely be coming back soon ! read more

Been to this place a few times for business dinners with clients, but always forget to sign in or yet give it's well deserved good review. Casablanca like others in River Walk area have been the go to place for great seafood for years. Decor seems like old wood fisherman that speaks for itself, everything around it including tables with water view prepares to order seafood. Myself and guest have never been disappointed and last night wasn't the exception as food is always served fresh and always tasty. Hats off to the bartender that makes them awesome and unique drinks you only find at Casablanca. Best time to visit is our South Florida winter as summer season can be quite hot, especially if you like to dine riverside. Only negative comment is that boat owners tend to bring their large boats and if you are unlucky they will dock in front of your table and block view. When in downtown area give this highly recommended place a try! read more

I wanted to like this place. I love seafood. It was alright. I was excited to come here after reading so many positive reviews. I parked on the street even though they offer complimentary valet service. Gotta treasure the rental car. Casablanca has a beautiful location, right on the water. People pull up to the restaurant via boat and jet ski and enter at a dock. This was a neat sight to see. I ordered a glass of white wine and a dozen raw oysters to start and a Salmon salad for my entree. I love raw oysters. I love salad. My salad came out first at which point I inquired about my oysters. I asked for my order to be cancelled so as not to do things backwards. My waiter was very thoughtful and brought me three oysters to sample. On the house. The oysters were good, not great. Three stars. It was meant to be.;-) The salad. was awful. i mean terrible. And I never speak of food this way but it was not good. It started with greens topped with a soggy corn tortilla caked in black bean spread, which was then topped with a thin sliver of tremendously over cooked Salmon that was more like salmon jerky than salmon which was then topped with runny avocado salsa and cold, shredded cheddar cheese. It was as awful as it sounds. One of the worst things that I have tried in years. I ate the lettuce. To make up for this, I ordered a side of grilled scallops which were good but insubstantial and much more expensive than the salad. (four stars) the best thing was the seafood dip. Only $5.95. It was kind of like albacore tuna salad and corn chips. Nothing fancy. Very tasty. (five stars) Overall, I give the ambiance five stars, the food three, the service four and the price two. It is a little expensive for what you get. I would not come back. read more

Overdue. Amid covid. Make reservation. It's a must place to go to if you're in Miami the food is awesome, delicious, all five stars for the food. The service, not the best and that's when you begin to lose the experience. I took my sister here for her birthday. Our waitress seemed to be in another world. She kept forgetting our drinks, what we ordered, and then she disappeared when we still wanted to order something else. By the time she came back she said the kitchen was closed and when I stated how she disappeared, she said the kitchen made an exception. It was super awkward because I've never had this experience ( yeah I've had bad service before but to disappear?). But I can't deny the food. The presentation, the amount, and most importantly how it tasted was great. I had the scallops, simple but delicious. You can't go wrong with the paella it was super creamy and the lobster was fresh. The fish was cooked well. Again can't say anything wrong about the food it was worth the price but not for the service. read more

This restaurant has a five star view but a one star for food. My daughter got sick from what she ate. She had tuna tartare, and the cream topping mayo? was warm and tasted funky. She was sick all night. I had the mahi-mahi sandwich and it was nothing special at all. Location was A+ but the food D minus. read more

I live in Miami and literally I usually have a wonderful experiences at most restaurants that I go to. This place is a huge disappointment. They took 2 hours to bring our entrees, some of our food was cold and not seasoned. The waiter was wretched--didn't apologize once, got really defensive and very dismissive. Also--the bathroom smells. Don't go here--go to Garcia's or any other seafood spot in Miami!!!! read more

This is my favorite restaurant in Miami. The food was AMAZING, best seafood in the city. The vibe is super nice, I went for happy hour and ended up staying for dinner. I highly recommend the octopus - is to die for. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They provide the best service, always attentive and with a big smile. Love this place!!! read more

It was the worst restaurant experience I've ever witnessed. I work at a restaurant as well and would never dream of treating paying customers this way. It had first began with the parking, and my sister and I found a parking in the front when we were told by some guy who was on his phone nowhere near his valet post that we weren't allowed to park there and that we had to move, we agreed and left to find parking by the street. Once we entered the restaurant, the hostess from began was already given us attitude and was dismissive. We had a reservation with our party already waiting for us. We told her this, and she began looking for it in the computer and said she couldn't find it and was treating us as if we were stupid, we immediately told her what name the reservation was under and told they were already waiting. She then gave us some more attitude to just walk in (mind you, I had never been there before, so I had no idea of the layout of this place), so my sister and I start walking looking for our party after a while of waiting in the front for nothing. We then found our party that was in the furthest part of the restaurant. When we were finally ready to order, we had to get and look for her after waiting so long for her to get to us. And now the part when our meal came and it was disgusting (i had a seafood pasta) There was barely any sauce on it, and the noodles tasted fake and rubbery. The shrimp could've been better, but it tasted old and nasty. When it then came to paying, we told one of the bus boys that was picking up our plates to tell our waitress that we were ready for the bill, we waited for almost 10 mins and nothing so we started looking for our waitress when we see her talking to her coworkers and not paying attention her table laughing and giggling in the corner. Once she finally came, she began asking us if we would like any desert, and when we politely declined, she immediately started making jokes on how skinny we were and that we should eat more. Imagine that you go to a restaurant to have the waitress start making jokes on your weight absolutely HORRIBLE. I will NEVER be stetting foot in there again, and I will be telling people about this horrible experience! read more

Not really impressed by their food. I went there based on some recommendations but was not really impressed, or maybe I didn't try the right menu. Great atmosphere and view. read more

The food is good, large portions for $30 plates. Prices are reasonable for the area. The reason for the 3 stars is the service. Service needs to be improved big time here. Two waiters serving our outside table. They said they work hand in hand but don't communicate with one another. We had to repeatedly ask for water, it took them an hour to ask us after being served our initial drinks to order food. They kept walking passed us and didn't even try to look at our direction. Just keep in mind that they'll take forever to take your order but the food is overall good. read more

Casablanca - Paella - Seafood Near Me - Miami, Florida

Incredibly expensive for terrible service. Gabriel was our server and he spent the least amount of time I've ever experienced at our table on a Monday evening when it wasn't busy. He would speak without making any eye contact, ignore us trying to flag him down, and we had to ask other people multiple times to find our server for a drink refill or whatever the reason would have been. I asked for a whisky sour and he asked me if I wanted it blended or on the rocks? A question I have never been asked. I told him a regular classic one with egg whites, and apparently they only serve their sours on the rocks or FROZEN AND BLENDED???? Why would you ruin a classic and delicious drink? Lol Anyway, after we ate and finished our drinks he disappeared again leaving us at a dirty table for half and hour before we flagged a busser down (again) and asked for our server so we could ask for the check, and he didn't make eye contact with us through that process either? As someone who served for years, I could not imagine giving such terrible service at what looks like a nice restaurant, and I will not be visiting again thanks to Gabriel and the terrible decision to only give me an on the rocks or frozen and blended version of a classic drink that isn't supposed to come either of those ways lol. View of the water was pretty though and my crab legs were decent. read more

All I can say is don't waste your time or money . The food is mediocre, taste like some not so good home cooked meal.Nothing tasted fresh, everything tasted like frozen food. Honestly I should have known, when we had to walk into the doubletree to get into the restaurant which was on the second floor or some run down mini boutique mall. When I walked in there was only two other groups sitting indoor. There was no one at the front desk had to wait 15 min for someone to even acknowledge we were there. Once they sat us I reviewed the menu and decide to look at the yelp reviews to see what some of the dishes looked like. As soon as I saw the reviews, I told my bf we should only try one or two appetizers. I'm glad we did cuz not only was the service horrible but the food was worse. The shrimp tostones and the lobster croquetas was disappointing. And an automatic 20% gratuity for a server we had to go look for every time, like even to pay we had to look for her. We could have walked out and no one would have known. read more

I was looking for a restaurant that would allow us to bring 18 people for a retirement luncheon. Casablanca welcomed us without hesitation. We had a large table overlooking the water and it made the perfect backdrop for our group. The food was delicious and fresh. We had a variety of items from conch fritters, salads, sandwiches and seafood platters. The desserts were so decadent and the portions were really big. The best service was given by our waitress Yaimi, who took care of all 18 of us with an incredible amount of patience and without any issues. It really allowed us to enjoy each other's company and send our co-worker off to retirement in a memorable well. I will definitely be going back for more lunches for our group. read more

Horrible experience!! We waited over 20minutes while waiting outside we noticed other people getting seated before us. My wife kindly asked the host how long was our wait. The host was very rude and said to her she in a condescending voice" you have only waited for 17 minutes. I preceded to go and ask for the manager. I spoke she said "you can go talk to him he is at the bar" I went to the bar and waited for him. He looked at me and ignored me as the host went and talked privately to him. They both ignored me and went on with their business. I hope the owner sees this review and learns to trains his staff to be more professional and kind to its customers. I ended up going to Garcia's. They open the door for us and also we where able to wait inside. read more

Beautiful place beside the river, I ordered the Sopon Marinero and was delicious. The service was excellent and my cocktail was perfect.

This is the "normal" choice sandwiched between the rustic Garcia's restaurant and the rudest service in Miami at Kiki's on the River. The outside seating was nice and the food was everything you could expect from a seafood restaurant. We had to wait 20 minutes on a Saturday for seating with no reservation. A family friendly restaurant with underwhelming service. Our server was nice but forgetful (having ask multiple times for water, bottle opener, etc). The weekend brunch looks interesting for a future visit. Wine list is predictable and there is no beer in tap. A small whole fried fish with one side was $30. read more

I ordered the whole fried fish. (Not cheap over $50.00) After waiting almost 45 minutes the meal came out overcooked and dry. Having to convince our waiter she reluctantly offered me something else.

Very disappointed, very sad because the atmosphere is nice. I wanted it to be special because I was with my 96 years old father who doesn't get out much. Waste of time and money...

Always a favorite in Miami. Our waiter was a sweetheart (Tito). The wine list is very good and reasonable priced. (That's rare in Miami). The fish is always fresh although my fried fish was a little over done.. Ceviche delicious.
