Stone crab claws, boiled and chilled, served with a mustard sauce that people have been arguing about since Miami Beach was accessible only by ferry. Joe's is an old-school institution, a crab shop so embedded in the city's identity that celebrities, politicians, and regulars all wait in the same line. The dedicated parking lot across the street tells you everything about how long that wait can get. Save room for the key lime pie.

How we scoreThe dishes from the writeups

Stone crab claws
“Boiled, chilled and served with a signature mustard sauce, stone crab claws are the signature dish (they're also sustainable, as crabs can regenerate their claws in around two years).”
Michelin Guide -
Key lime pie
“End the meal with a refreshing, slightly creamy, slice of key lime pie.”
Michelin Guide -
Fried chicken
“There is something for all tastes, from an assortment of seafood dishes to glistening steaks and Joe’s popular fried chicken.”
Eater -
Creamed spinach
“Creamed spinach and coleslaw are favorites, but the hash browns and roasted tomatoes are worth an order, too.”
