This trip…read moretook me to St. Thomas, and being an island community, it also meant seafood, which I love and is hard to come by in Phoenix, AZ. The Fish Market sits on the beach at the bottom of the Elysian Hotel. While you can walk there, it's a long, winding road through the hotel grounds. While I want to say we were met with a warm island welcome, instead, we were met by a grouchy young lady who seemed less than happy to be working or enjoying her day. On a positive note, our waitress, Kieke, was delightful and sweet and a complete opposite from the hostess. As for the food, let me be honest when I say it was one of the top two seafood meals I've had in my life. I got the crab-stuffed grouper with broccolini and couscous. It was cooked perfectly and had a sauce that was delicious! At the end of the day, this was a great experience, and if you can get down to the restaurant (which is a hike), you will absolutely enjoy the meal and ask for Kieke and ignore the rude hostess.

Both were really good; the nachos were super fresh and flavorful with a nice mix of textures, and the scramble was light but still filling with plenty of veggies. Definitely felt like a good, balanced brunch option. The service was great, friendly, attentive, and everything came out at a good pace. The only thing that wasn't my favorite was the Bloody Mary. It had a pretty strong horseradish kick, which just isn't my thing, but if you like that extra spice you'd probably enjoy it. Overall, great food, beautiful setting, and a solid brunch spot. I'd absolutely come back (and probably stick to mimosas next time!).

The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful, and the service was excellent from beginning to end,from the hostess to the servers and bussers. Our server, Jeffery, was amazing! He was energetic, professional, attentive, and you can genuinely tell he takes his position seriously. I loved that! We were greeted with complimentary sopa de plátano and bacalaítos, and I was NOT expecting to love them as much as I did. This was by far the best sopa de plátano I've ever had. I never thought I could fall in love with a soup, but here we are! (I ordered a whole extra regular size bowl )The bacalaítos were another surprise because they're normally not something I order or even particularly like--and I've tried quite a few in my life--but these were absolutely delicious. My S/O and I shared the churrasco with arroz mamposteao, along with a side of avocado salad and majado de viandas. Everything was a straight 10/10. Not one disappointment on the table. They also make an amazing Rojo Pico, which was the perfect addition to the experience. 100% recommend Casita Miramar. Don't overthink JUST GO!

They attempted to seat us at a postage stamp sized table barely bigger than the napkin holder sitting on top of it. No thanks. The food quality has taken a steep decline. My "sea" scallops were tough, chewy, and hard like small bouncy rubber balls. The clam chowder was "off" if that makes sense. Didn't quite taste fresh and had a lot of gritty texture to it. The garlic shrimp was quite paltry. Tiny tail-on shrimp that quite honestly reminded be of a bag of frozen from the supermarket.

For drinks, we tried the Passionfruit Mule (insanely refreshing and tasty), Sangria (different than what we've seen before, but still tasty), and a Passionfruit Mojito (best drink of the 3 and I loved that they left the seeds as well). We started with the Small Sampler, which came with one meat (we chose pork), sorullos, bacalaitos, cheese balls, and empanadadillas of beef and cheese. It was a great way to try some new foods without getting too much. I especially loved the pork and sorullos. For entrees, I got the Octopus Salad with Tostones and my guy got the Skirt Steak. The steak was cooked and seasoned beyond perfection and melted in your mouth like butter. The octopus salad was my favorite octopus of the trip and reminded me of the octopus salad I used to get when I was younger. It also paired perfectly with the tostones.
