Monty's Raw Bar
Monty's Raw Bar has operated on the Coconut Grove waterfront for decades, combining a casual raw bar and tiki-style outdoor seating directly on Biscayne Bay with a long-running local reputation as the place to get oysters, conch, and stone crab in a genuinely low-key, marina-adjacent setting. Its outdoor, palm-thatched tiki bar atmosphere, with live music and direct water views over the Coconut Grove marina, gives Monty's a distinctly different feel from more formal Miami seafood restaurants, leaning into a casual, drinks-and-raw-bar-first identity. The restaurant's location within the same waterfront complex as the Coconut Grove marina has made it a longtime gathering spot for the neighborhood's boating community specifically, giving it a genuinely local, non-touristy regular clientele alongside visitors. For a Miami seafood list, Monty's is the essential "raw bar with your feet basically in the water" entry — a casual, tiki-style Coconut Grove institution built around oysters, conch, and a direct marina view rather than a formal dining room.
VS
La Camaronera
La Camaronera has operated as a walk-up seafood counter in Little Havana for decades, specializing in fried fish sandwiches, ceviche, and ready-to-eat shrimp cocktails served from a simple outdoor counter rather than a sit-down dining room. Its fried grouper sandwich, served on Cuban bread with a garlicky mojo sauce, has become one of the most specifically cited individual seafood dishes in Miami food media, a genuinely distinctive fusion of Cuban bread tradition with straightforward American fried-fish-sandwich format. The restaurant's minimal, no-frills setup — order at the counter, eat standing or at simple outdoor seating — reflects its origins as an attached seafood market rather than a restaurant built primarily for a sit-down dining experience. For a Miami seafood list, La Camaronera is the essential "walk-up counter classic" entry — a no-frills Little Havana seafood stand whose Cuban-bread fried grouper sandwich has become one of the most specifically beloved individual seafood dishes in the city.
