Restaurant/Bar in Miami where you can see the ships

[Want2Cruise 701]

We arrive on a Saturday and our ship leaves on Sunday. Is there anything in MIA similar to what Port Canaveral has with Fishlips, Grills etc. to see the Saturday ships leave? Thanks.

I am interested in this information too.

Monty's on South Beach aka Monty's Sunset

Smith & Wollensky...If you can afford it.

The absolute best view is Smith & Wollensky but it is very expensive. Lunch for four of us was $400. It's very, very good.

 

Montys for happy hour is very reasonable and they have a pool. I've swam in it many times holding a margarita. Because you can.

 

South Point Park is free and the views are the same as S&W.

I'll check them out. We have a Smith & Wollenskys here. Food I didn't think warranted the price. Atleast the one here in Atl was just ok.

 

Thanks everyone.

I can take a cruise for what you would pay for dinner and drinks for two at S&W. I vote for a picnic in South Point Park.

That's great advice, but where do you buy the picnic food?

My balcony!! I'm watching the Carnival ship leave now!

 

Whole Foods in downtown Miami is a great place for picnic items as they have so much prepared food. They will give you all utensils and stuff needed. Any Publix is also great.

 

Blue Heron's advice is as always, spot on. Monty's is a lot of fun.

Joe's Stone Crab has a special 'take out' side ...

Publix!! There is one at Fifth and Alton which is about five blocks from South Pointe Park. They also sell these great little bag coolers which really work for $2.50. Don't forget to buy a wine opener!

Wine opener?? Just get it in a box! Love those little wine cubes from Tar-jay.

Thank you for your suggestions, they sound wonderful. Hopefully this will turn into a great day, instead of staying on the ship. Again thank you for your help.
