Joe's Stone Crab

SOUTH BEACH. This legendary restaurant, open since 1913, has become a Miami institution. They say you haven't visited South Florida until you have been to Joe's. Stick out the typical two-hour wait and you'll be amply rewarded with some of the best stone crab known to man, great side dishes like hash browns and creamed spinach, and the phenomenal, ultimate Key Lime Pie. If you don't like crabs, follow the lead of Bill Clinton and try the fried chicken. Joe's is open full hours during stone crab season, from October through May, and opens for 2-3 months during the summer with a limited menu in the bar area.
