    Iconic restaurant that is one of the classics with a spectacular view. Noisy inside, I'd recommend outdoors if you want either a romantic evening or to talk to your guests.

    I had a wonderful time at the Rusty Pelican. Yammy was my server, she was great. The food was fantastic and not nearly as expensive as I had figured it would be. Overall, I highly suggest and will be coming back regularly. Thank you.

    A very pleasant place for a meal, more for the view than the food (although the food is quite O.K.). And valet parking is only $10, a rarity in Miami these days. The seafood tower was quite adequate for four in our party in lieu of traditional entrees. Attentive service was a plus.
    Rusty Pelican - MiamiResponded 3 days ago
    Hey Christopher, Thank you so much for your kind words and for giving us a high rating despite the fact that you found our food just okay.

We're always striving to provide top-notch service and your feedback helps us do just that. We hope to see you again soon at Rusty Pelican - Miami for another pleasant meal. Best regards, The Management Team
