Picked this place to celebrate our anniversary while at Key Biscayne. This spot has amazing patio overlooking the downtown... skyline. Great selection of wine and awesome sea food. My wife had a sea bass over bed of sweet plantain mesh and I ended upwith red snapper. Both amazing. The bar area is good size and serves amazing drinks Read more

We visited Rusty Pelican the night prior to boarding a cruise and we were more than surprised! Cynthia was our server and was... the first to set the impression of the restaurant. She was very upbeat, helpful and efficient! She went above and beyond. Thefood was phenomenal. We have traveled all over the world and I can say the flavors of the foods we had were incredible. Idefinitely suggest making this a stop or a regular dining location! Read more

The best thing about the restaurant is the fabulous view! Drinks and wine excellent and we enjoyed the food. Service was a... little slow but polite and friendly.

We also had a chance to some of their new additions coming soon, there wasthis guy showing a dog robot that based in his words will be part of the team, not sure how to attach the video but will tryagain Read more

Made reservations and was told I would still have to wait 30min if I wanted to be seated inside. We opted to sit outside by the... water and the ambiance was nice overlooking the water. Our waitress Gigi was nice and pleasant and very informative abouteverything on the menu. I ended up trying octopus for the first time because of her and I absolutely loved it! The food overallwas good. I took one star away only because we were told we had to wait even with reservations. Read more

We saw the Rusty Pelican recommended on multiple Miami Vacation Guides on the internet and knew we had to go here as our last... dinner in Miami. It was a great choice. Very classy restaurant with outdoor and indoor seating. We reserved for 6 and requesteda skyline view. While outdoor would've been an extra hour wait, we were given an amazing indoor spot in a corner alcove withlarge windows and everyone had a great view. The specialty drinks and food were tasty and memorable. We had a couple orders ofthe "Rusty Pelican Board for Two" at our table and they were huge, and everything on it was delicious. Read more

The food here is excellent. The shrimp cocktail came on a bed of seaweed and under that was dry ice so it came smoking to the... table. I had their salmon with the mashed potatoes and broccoli and it was fantastic. The drinks are good. The view is stellar.Highly recommend this restaurant. It is pricey but worth it. Read more
