El Floridita Seafood Restaurant - Kendall

Being a long haul truck driver, I don’t often get the luxury of dining out. My company has a regular drop in this area. It’s been awhile since I’ve been there. I was looking for something to eat, and I walked a short walk past 4 different food trucks, but really wanted something new. Even though they have two other locations around Miami. Walked up to the carry out, and was greeted with a huge smile, and a friendly lady working the area. I noticed that the menu was not quite the same, as the one from the menu photo, so that means they do things seasonal. The whole area from the large patio, to the sidewalk area and the parking lot was immaculate. All of the staffers that I talked to, were friendly and smiling. The inside was warm airy and inviting. The bathroom was sparkling. I ordered lobster bisque, mind you I only order seafood when I’m in an area that is near the ocean. The soup was fantastic, it was perfectly seasoned, the right amount of thickness, the base obviously had been

Very delicious! ???? I found the fish spread a little on the salty side, but not fried roe or the whole fried snapper, which was spectacular. Fresh made lemonade was a nice touch, too. Service was excellent, well worth the drive to the 136th Street location.

What wonderful experience we have every time we come to this location. Rey, a true professional, always makes sure to make us feel at home. The ambiance and presentation of the restaurant is quiet, peaceful, and private. The walls are decorated with fish species, angler trophy pictures, and more. The wine offered on the menu is great and for every budget. When you leave you will realize that you were not at the Florida Keys, but in Kendall. A true gem in Dade.
