El Floridita Seafood - Miami

I liked this Miami Suburban Seafood concept. Cute limited seafood menu that allows the restaurant to concentrate instead of offering everything swimming in the sea. The service was both hospitable and exhaustive. Strong demand for seats in a relatively limited restaurant. Also here I like the menu and a few choices that focus on a more economical offer (combo dish with soup, Entrée and dessert or coffee) in addition to high-end seafood. Worth a visit!

Food and service was delicious!!! We just missed Happy Hour, but everything was great and fresh. Will come back soon @priscillamiami

As a long truck driver, I don't often get the luxury of food. My company has a regular decline in this area. Since I was there? I was looking for something to eat, and I went a short walk past 4 different food trucks, but really wanted something new. Although they have two other locations in Miami. It went to execution, and was greeted with a huge smile, and a friendly lady works the area. I noticed that the menu was not exactly the same as the menu photo, making things seasonal. The entire area from the large terrace, to the walkway and the parking lot was impeccable. All the staff I spoke with were friendly and smiling. The interior was warm and welcoming. The bathroom was sparkling. I ordered lobster bisque, I only order seafood when I'm in an area close to the ocean. The soup was fantastic, it was perfectly seasoned, the right thickness, the base was obviously made of lobster dishes, with small lobster bits, only the way it should be made (I'm sorry lobster bisque is not made with stools), with a touch of sweetness. There was no credibility at all. I had taken a big bite and loved him absolutely, after that every bite I took was a little bite to savior every bite. The black-mahi-mahi-tacos were excellent, perfectly seasoned, the fish was moist, and the sauce was just enough. In flour tortillas, it was not short on ingredients and taste. The potato chips were perfectly cooked, no fat spots or taste at all. I cannot express my joy with all the experience. I wish I'd eat tonight, but life on the street doesn't allow it.

I always come here and it's my favorite place. The food is great and also the workers. It is very affordable if you plan to come with a lot of family and are on a budget. The interior is beautifully decorated and it feels cozy.

WOW? what happened to El Floridita? As a UM student living on campus years ago, this was my favorite restaurant to take my out of town friends to. Any time anyone was in the mood for seafood, I encouraged them try this restaurant. The food was always so fresh, flavorful, and the portions were more than worth the prices. My favorite was the appetizer sampler, El Combo Floridita. It had the perfect mix of seafood and Cuban style sides. It was enough for 3 people to share before their meals, and also good enough to BE the meal. I went back today with a coworker who had never been there and ordered to go. I hadn?t been there in about 2 years and was excited to return oh man, was I embarrassed that I even chose this restaurant. The sampler is now completely different which wasn?t really the issue, although I do feel the original combination of items was WAY better. First of all, the portion sizes are RIDICULOUS for the price. I swear it had like 6 small calamari rings, a couple of shrimp, and 3 small chunks of fish. This photo was taken without taking anything out. This was all that was given. The fish and shrimp were tasteless, like they fried some frozen fish from Walmart. The fish croquetas, which I used to say were the best fish croquetas in Miami, were extremely BLAND. The ONLY thing that made the food taste better was the dipping sauce they gave with the food, but unfortunately they only give you one small container. I kept saying ?sorry, this wasn?t like this before!? to my coworker who was also disappointed by the food after I raved about this restaurant. I don?t mind paying high prices for good food, but this was such a disappointment that it felt like a complete rip off, like paying $10 for a McDonald?s burger. Needless to say, this is my last time going here. This is just yet another restaurant that used to be amazing that has now sacrificed taste, quality, and decent portion sizes.
