Miami Marriott Biscayne Bay - Catch Bar & Grill

Sure, this is a hotel restaurant. But Catch Bar & Grill, which opened in the late summer of 2011, is a new breed of eatery--not one that keeps a tourist trapped because there's nowhere else to go, but one that tempts a traveler to stay put via setting and sumptuous seafood. Perched alongside Biscayne Bay, Catch offers local fish and seafood seasoned with a Miami sensibility. There's always a great shrimp cocktail to be had, for example, but better still? Barbecue shrimp over manchego-flavored grits with chorizo and tomato fondue. And while you can always get a delectable seafood pasta with green-lipped mussels and tender rings of squid, why not gear up instead for whole Miami snapper drizzled with a mango-habanero sauce and served with jicama slaw? True, it's probably part of a diabolical plot to make you love the city so much you'll never leave. Is it working yet?
