Avalon Hotel

What is better than having amazing seafood at south beach? After Covid, so many restaurants food and service quality deteriorated so quickly, it’s almost a gamble to do even expensive restaurants.

We walked in here with the same suspicion. Only ordered a cold soup and oyster to do a test before dumping $200 here.

Beyond expectations, the Gazpacho, a well-known cold Spanish soup made from raw, blended vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, bell peppers, and garlic, often with olive oil and vinegar, was so perfectly made and presented. The fresh scallops and shrimp inside was the perfect addition. We are determined to order more food from them.

The branzino (Brazilian sea bass) was more than amazing. Look at the pictures. Then they also had specials - crab stuffed lobster. I had to get the it for the sake of crabs. Nothing was deeply fried, no flour crust, no cheap stuff, just pure enjoyment of every bite.

They change their menu from time to time, what new surprises could we have next time? 🌹🌹🌹

P.S. the view, is beautiful. The weather, couldn’t be better. The outdoor seating, is as nice as indoor upscale seating. And their live music is classic and pleasant! Not some noisy cheap night club music.

I cannot adequately describe how great our experience was at A Fish Called Avalon. From the moment you walk up, to being seated, to ordering, you are wrapped in excellent and professional care. The food and drinks were spectacular. The music sublime, and added to a lovely evening. Don't miss this place - the location alone is worth a stop for a wonderful dinner out.

Amazing experience! Amazing food and amazing service! Live music, the singer was great. All service was with personal attention. Pricey, but I’d say worth. Great location of course on the ocean drive!

Everything about this restaurant is 5-star. The atmosphere is old-money fabulous, the wait staff is amazing and the food is fantastic. The grouper might have been the best I ever tasted, and the award-winning key lime pie is not to be missed! Sit outside at the dinner hour for the best people watching and soak up the South Beach vibe.

We sat at the bar for Happy Hour and dinner. Vagos was our bartender and he was amazing! He made wonderful recommendations and the cocktails he prepared were on point. Despite being busy making drinks for the restaurant he was very attentive. He really made our last day in Miami unforgettable!

The room is on the small side, but it's okay for being right on the beach. The towels are not very clean and there are often stains that cannot be washed away. The room is equipped with beach chairs that can be taken out to the beach, and towels are also provided at the front desk. Breakfast is basically the same every day, and the hot food will be changed every day. The selection is basically enough. It's quite convenient to buy things for daily use. There is a large CVS downstairs.

The hotel was beautiful, very nice at night with live music. We upgraded our room and it was perfect!! Thanks Avalon

Great place, close to South Beach. The Craft Cafe has excellent coffee, hot or cold. So great that they were being filmed for TV while we were there. Rooms are older and current construction keeps it from being 5 stars.

Room was cheap price. Clean room and good service! Overall stay was very nice.

Good food. Great service. However the live music is the reason to go. Awesome musicians.
