If you're visiting Miami, this place is a MUST. There's almost always a wait for a table, so it's best to get Joe's to go to minimize the time before you can eat their incredible stone crab claws.

Hands down the BEST restaurant in Miami. Impeccable food & service. So nostalgic you never want to leave. Stone crab claws are a MUST, king crab legs are awesome, key lime pie is to die for, ALL GOOD

Most people know Joe's for stone crab, but their fresh fish and other seafood is also outstanding. And, interestingly, Joe's keeps a hamburger and fried chicken on the menu at a real bargain price!

An institution. The creamed spinach is amazing. Not so much the wedge. Large claws only. Make ur life easier and jus eat at takeaway with less of a hassle

A Miami institution and a must. Ordered two large orders and I was plenty for two folks with two sides. Unless you are eating other foods. The key lime pie is a must!

Joe's Stone Crab is ranked #1 seafood restaurant in Miami Beach by Foursquare City Guide users and we know why... Three things to order: stone crab claws, grilled tomatoes and key lime pie.

The stone crab great, but I'll be coming back for the key lime pie. I also enjoyed the crunchy kale salad and fried chicken. The staff are efficient, professional and attentive. Great place

Lives up to the hype. The take-away section of the restaurant is more laid back and features just as great of food. Crab legs are priced based on market value, so they can be a bit expensive.

If you’re not getting stone crabs, go for the glazed salmon. The sauce is sweet and savory, and the fish is always fresh. Chopped salad and the tomato are classic starters.

The stone crabs are fresh and amazing!!!! The wait so staff were polite and friendly! The only disappointment was the long wait. But I am willing to come again!!! 🥰

Key lime pie was best we had of 4 tried around Miami & Ft Lauderdale. Service old school gracious and attentive. Otherwise, the food rly does not merit costliness of meal. Its an experience, cosigned.
Ashlyn WilliamsDecember 23, 2015
If you want to try this place more than once it is a good idea to come for lunch. Walked up to the gentleman at the front about noon with a group of 5 at about 12 noon and he was ready to get us sat.

Historical place. Good service and famous stone crab clams. But was not blown away. More like an experience

A historical Miami institution. "Medium stone crabs...are best; the claws are a fine regional meal paired with Joe's creamy mustard dipping sauce." -Gayot on TripExpert Read more

One word, OUTSTANDING. This is THE place to try in Miami Beach. Be sure to order the slaw as an app. Try the brussel sprouts as well!
Bill HollisFebruary 23, 2018
Are you kidding me! Best restaurant ever! The crabs were amazing, topped off with spectacular potato pancakes, can’t say enough about our experience. Best meal in Miami! Btw Maria was awesome!
Nash AlsJuly 5, 2019
obviously the stone crab is a must. and the lobester was good too. but make sure to leave some room for the lime pie 👍🏻
Jacob GyllenstiernaDecember 22, 2016
Get here at 6pm or risk waiting >1hr. Get the select stone crab, grilled tomatoes and key lime pie. Not cheap, but so good!

Best of Miami 2013- Best Fried Chicken: Joes Take Away. At the inexpensive sister of Joes Stone Crab, try their Mahi-Mahi Sandwiches, fried Oysters and of course their famous Fried Chicken. Read more

Fabulous dinner at Joe's. If you are ever in Miami, and even if you live there..Joe's is the one place to have an incredible Stone Crab meal. Best place to go for them.

Frozen claws during late Sept but still good. Cannot miss this during a Miami visit!
Jecee MedeirosNovember 17, 2013
What else is one to say except you have to try the stone crabs. There is nothing else like these or the yummy creamy mustard dipping sauce they serve the stone crabs with. Five stars all the way
Phil MillerDecember 30, 2016
This storied Miami Beach place is awesome in both the atmosphere (formal with all waitstaff in a tux), to the service to the food. A large selection at all price points.
Jean-Marc DemersOctober 18, 2011
If you enjoy food (and wine) as much as I do, you need to ask your waiter to take his time. Order your main after your appetizer is over, then you'll know you won't receive everything simultaneously.

The Killer King Crab Claws that you can have shipped to your door. Could eat these everyday with a chilled Cava or Presecco. Great staff. Really expensive but worth the splurge.

Go on a weeknight and before 7pm for a short wait! We split one large order of the stone crabs plus one side of hash browns and one appetizer and it was plenty of food!
Jaclyn RDecember 31, 2018
South Florida staple so definitely worth the visit but not necessarily worth the crazy wait. Pro tip: know a guy

Best Stone Crab and Lobster around. Key Lime pie is the best north of key west, and if your into greens , the creamed spinach is a MUST! - Dennis Mancino
Judy KennedyMarch 25, 2015
Appetizers were so good! The cold seafood platter was ok but not worth the 47$ at all! Strong drinks always a plus! Great experience !
Allie BDecember 14, 2011
Amazing food and great service. A South Beach classic that should not be missed. Splurge for the stone crab and try a mojito. You won't be disappointed.
Mattie StegerMarch 3, 2016
A must-do while you're in Miami! Never disappoints; & the service is great. GET THE KEY LIME PIE!🙌🏼

Best stone crabs and key lime pie in Miami! They don't take reservations so leave time to enjoy the bar
Men's Health MagJuly 9, 2012
The shrimp cocktail, sweeter and plumper than most you can score in the U.S., rim a chalice filled with a house-made sauce. Order the jumbo claws if they're in season and larges any other time.
Alex NormanDecember 23, 2012
The best value are the large stone crabs hands down. Every time I come I always make the mistake of getting the selects. Now it's officially on FS So no one will make the same mistake
Mustafa K.March 17, 2022
Jumbo crab was good, they have to work on their side orders thou… their hash brown recipe has room for improvement. Grilled tomatoes was cold, we would enjoy it more if they were fresh out of oven.
Isabella KayatSeptember 10, 2017
Love this place. They don't take reservations. I would go for lunch because dinner can have long waits. Loved the stone crabs and artichoke

Food blogger Deborah of DeborahShane.com recommends Joe's Stone Crab. "My favorites include baked clams, Alaskan crab claws with secret mustard sauce, Joe’s famous slaw, and, of course, Key lime pie."
Ellen NewmanApril 14, 2015
Lunch in January for anniversary. Everything was delist-oysters, crabs.Hubs had lobster roll AND crab cakes because he couldn't decide between the two.Comped us key lime pie.Great service.Expensive!!
BZBDecember 15, 2012
The Stone Crabs and lobster claws were delicious. The side of baked tomato with cheese on top is amazing, finished with chocolate brownie with icecream which I recommend you share.
Diana DlpJuly 13, 2013
The large stone crab is amazing. Also the crab cakes and key lime pie!! Great place if you get to the restaurant before 6pm you won't have to wait in line.

Amazing! A Keating family tradition for 30 years. The key lime pie is the worlds best. THIS IS MY FAVORITE PLACE TO EAT ON EARTH!
Dianne ProctorJuly 29, 2012
I love crab meat and Joe's has gigantic crab claws, crazy..They also every other kind of seafood you could want Word to the wise Joe's closes on August 5 and reopens October 1
Mike DizonDecember 30, 2011
You absolutely must get the fried chicken. A hidden gem. The stone crabs are great too, but you already know that. If u want to skip the line, grease the maitre'd a $50 (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Stone crab claws and key lime pie definitely live up to the hype! Make sure you dress neatly and arrive early.
Dan AltieriNovember 11, 2013
