    We were lured in by the loud music. Unfortunately inside was just as loud as the enclosed patio. Our meals were pretty disappointing. My butterflies frief shrimp were clearly frozen from a box. I have never received frozen food at a seafood restaurant. The fries were a disaster. Clearly a new batch was barely cooked and then mixed in with old, hard, overcooked fries. His grilled chicken sandwich was okay. Service was fine.

    Catch of the Day was a mixed but decent happy hour experience. The vibe feels like a dive bar meets tourist spot. We ordered two dozen oysters, the seafood platter, margaritas, Uncle's Old Fashioned, and a bottle of wine. The oysters were fine, especially for a dollar each, but not my favorite I have had better in Miami. The seafood platter was also okay, nothing bad, just nothing that really stood out or made me crave it again. The margarita was really good and probably my favorite drink of the night. The Uncle's Old Fashioned was strong and definitely lived up to its name, very much tastes like your uncle made it. Prices are reasonable and it is an affordable spot overall.

    Laid back seafood bar/restaurant with good happy hour specials. Even though this is my first review of Catch of the Day this is not my first time here. But it is the first time back in over 5-8 years. I'll begin this review with saying it's not the same as it was before. I came on Saturday night and it was mostly dead. Parking is obly valet. Its 3 bucks so its cheap but there is no other option. They had live music with a male/female duet and I truly felt bad for them. Service was somewhat friendly and easily accessible. The menu was loaded with specials but none for a Saturday night which may or may not be the reason no one else was there. I ordered a Becks beer and the lady looked shocked saying no one had ordered that in years. I was unsure if that was a joke or not as it's a quite common beer. Regardless it came out with a frosty mug and same with my second beer. As for the food, we ordered calamari which came with marinera sauce for dipping. It was quite possibly the worst marinera sauce. So watered down. The calamari itself tasted bland and tasteless. My wife and I also ordered the Big One Minute Snapper sandwich. Yes it was big but again flavorless. Which was deceiving because looks wise it looked amazing but nothing rewarding tastewise. My wife also agreed. We ended up eating it because it wasn't bad but it wasn't anything we would get again. We had also ordered some Frituritas de Bacalao which are Cod Fritters. The batter to cod ratio was totally off and it was more batter than anything else. Overall nothing really hit which could be just a bad night but from the lack of people that may speak more to how frequently "not great" the food is. Overall it's sad because I have good memories of this place and hoping they turn things around.

    We had a great time here. My octopus was amazing. My wife loved her stone crabs. Great vibe on the patio. Our server, Mayrobys is a rock star. Always there for us. Highly recommend.

    Fish is fresh and very tasty, I come here quite often with my husband for our fried fish. Food comes out super quick but service is not so good. No waters, napkins or utensils unless asked for. Ambiance is great to watch sports in door and outdoor!

    My husband and I were looking for a seafood restaurant in Miami and there's quite a bit of choices. Landed at this one as it's walking distance from our hotel. It is spacious but people choose to sit outside than inside. We had the: *Catch's Seafood Paella for one which I think is big enough for two. Nowhere close to Spanish paella but nonetheless yummy *Flying Crispy Whole Snapper: 1-1/2 to 2lb snapper simply fried is very delicious. Fresh seafood tastes best without much effort. I love this. It comes with rice but we had it swapped to salad. We came very hungry but this dinner filled us. Most definitely reminds me of home cooked fried fish with some salt sprinkling.

    Fish & Fries.   The picture does not do the quantity justice.

    Visiting the area and came to Yelp to look for something nearby my hotel and found Catch of the Day. Looking over the previous reviews I have to say I was slightly concerned over past reviews of some folks. Well I can't say I seen any concerns at all. This place was a solid 4 star joint, maybe even a 4.5. The staff and our server were very polite and absolutely took care of us. As for the food: the wifey had the Shrimp Alfredo. It came out steaming hot and was a really nice size serving. The wifey liked it and even let me try and I also like the Alfredo taste. As for me, I had the fish and fries. The batter on the 3 large portions was really good and the fish tasted really good. I will say I bring a large appetite to each meal and this filled me up. We also had two regular sodas. Grand total was $55, which I think was fair considering the portions. As for the place: we walked but I seen that the parking lot could get full. They have an open covered eatting area and inside seating. We chose the outside which also had TVs for the games. So basically what I'm saying is eat here if you're looking for some decent seafood. Especially if you're staying at one of the nearby hotels.

    This is away from the touristy areas but it seemed to be a mix of locals and out-of-towners. We missed happy hour though , which looked like an excellent deal. Excellent service, def not a quiet spot. There is valet parking available but we ubered. Seafood was fresh. Crab legs were on the smaller side but still good. Margarita was strong. Bill was around $30 as person (service charge already added in).

    This  dish had shrimp squid clams muscles and blacked mahi. This is a 2 person dish.

    Great service good food and we had live music. Very close to the airport. If you are staying at a Miami airport hotel it worth the trip.

    Very dark ambience
    Catrina W.

    Fantastic top quality seafood, slightly pretentious vibe. Making reservations was easy. Tons of traffic getting there, but I think this is how it is in South Miami. This is a roomy upscale space with a separate downstairs bar and restaurant up above as well as in the back. We had a booth in the back, and despite the efforts at a dim, quiet ambience, we could hardly hear ourselves talk. In fact, it was so dim, we could barely read the menus! Portions were within expectation, and on the pricey side. A group of six at a nearby booth orDerec dessert, one of which was quite dramatic with fire, sparkling candles and melting deliciousness, as there were audible "yumms" all around. Paid parking is available about a block away.

    I went to Catch of the Day during my trip to Miami and I get why people talk about this place so much. It's located really close to the airport, so it's super convenient if you just landed or if you're staying nearby. The vibe is very casual, kind of like a mix between a seafood spot and a sports bar. They have a nice outdoor patio, a lot of TVs with sports on, and some nights they even have live music, which makes it really fun and lively. The food portions are big, so you really get your money's worth. I tried the whole fried snapper, which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside - that's probably one of the best dishes there. The fish tacos and calamari were also good, and a lot of people recommend the mahi and shrimp plate or the octopus with chimichurri. Honestly, the seafood feels fresh, and when it's cooked right, it's delicious. But to keep it real, not everything is perfect. Some dishes are just "okay" - like, they fill you up, but they don't

    Fettuccine with marinara
    J C.

    Fettuccine pasta was supper salty. Can't bare the saltiness 1 star dish. Octopus dish was good and tender is a 5 star dish. Fettuccine was replaced this time its a 5 star. Very friendly waitresses.

    I was staying at the Marriott Miami Airport, and I was looking for a seafood restaurant. The catch of the day was close by recommended. The restaurant was quite busy being a Saturday evening. I sat at the bar and immediately had service. I was recommended the special blackened grouper. The plate was served with rice and black beans. Overall it was very good and paired nicely with a glass of Chardonnay. On Saturday, visit the restaurant a bit early to avoid the crowds.

    Shrimp Cocktail... extremely good!!!

The food was delicious, the atmosphere was relaxing, and it was the perfect way to end our vacation before our flight. The real highlight, though, was our server, Hiram. He provided some of the best service we've had anywhere, not just at an airport. He was friendly, attentive, personable, and made us feel like valued guests instead of travelers just passing through. He had fantastic recommendations, checked on us often without ever being intrusive, and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. If you're traveling through Miami International Airport, do yourself a favor and stop at Corona Beach House. And if you're lucky enough to have Hiram as your server, you're in for an exceptional experience. He truly turned an airport meal into one of the highlights of our travel day. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Miami!

We rotate locations to keep it fair, and last month brought us to Doral. We started at a cigar shop, wandered into Sports Grill Doral... and never left. At first glance, it feels like a classic sports bar. But spend a little time there and you realize it's operating on a different level. The food is outstanding, the beer selection is strong (especially if you're into IPAs), every major game is covered across wall-to-wall screens, and they even have a DJ on certain nights. What really sets it apart is the service. The manager, Manny, and his team created an experience that felt intentional, not transactional. When they saw we wanted to play dominoes, they didn't hesitate. They set us up with a proper table on the terrace so we could enjoy cigars, order cocktails, and settle in for the night without feeling rushed. That level of awareness and flexibility is rare. If you're in the Doral area and want a place that delivers on food, drinks, atmosphere, and experience, this is it. Whether you're catching a game or running a few rounds of dominoes, this spot earns a return visit.

Pls get your info right if you really don't reserve is not right to aleatory reserve tables for some people. Second the only table available was under the tv so we couldn't see and there was a whole other section "closed" where they were not seating people until we had to ask as few time, so not good on service and organization. When we could finally seat at a table to enjoy the game things improved a little, servers were friendly but you can feel the place is not organized, we really didnt even know who was really serving us, we kept asking to whoever walked by for things. The food took long and honestly food was ok nothing impressive, I would rather eat at any other sport bar nearby or even a franchise for burgers or chicken. The only thing I really liked was the margarita, perfectly made and very delicious (not made with mix but the real thing!) so cheers for that!

Best Way Let's be honest: you don't always expect a sports lounge to deliver food that makes you pause mid‑bite and go "wait... this is actually amazing." But Doral Billiards does exactly that. Everything comes out hot, fast, and way tastier than you'd expect from a place where half the crowd is busy sinking shots on the pool tables. The staff here? Absolute gems. They're quick, friendly, and somehow manage to keep the vibe fun without ever hovering. Whether you're ordering food, switching up your hookah flavor, or grabbing another round, they make it feel effortless. This place is a paradise for pool lovers. The tables are clean, well‑kept, and plentiful, so you're not stuck waiting forever. Whether you're a casual player or someone who takes their cue game very seriously, you'll find your groove here. The whole place has this electric, upbeat energy without ever feeling chaotic. Dim lights, great music, the sound of pool balls cracking, people cheering at the TVs--it all blends into a vibe that's fun, social, and totally addictive. If you want a spot where you can eat well, laugh loud, smoke smooth, shoot pool, and watch the game--all under one roof--Doral Billiards & Sports Lounge is the move. It's the kind of place you go once and immediately start planning your next visit.
