About Casablanca On The Bay
The Spotlight on Casablanca On The Bay

Seafood with a View Just Steps from the Music

Casablanca On The Bay is a breezy, waterfront seafood restaurant nestled on the edge of Biscayne Bay in downtown Miami. Located inside the DoubleTree Grand Hotel, it offers stunning marina views, a relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere, and a menu packed with fresh-from-the-dock seafood. This is a place where the flavors are bold, the drinks are cold, and the vibe is pure Miami.

Why Concert-goers love it

Its location is a major win — just minutes from major downtown concert venues, making it an ideal pre-show stop. The service is known for being friendly and efficient, making it easy to grab a flavorful bite without feeling rushed. The open-air patio and lounge seating offer a lively yet comfortable space to get in the groove before the music starts, and the seafood-forward menu is great for sharing with friends or savoring solo.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to toast before the show
  • Solo travelers grabbing a dockside dinner with a view
  • Couples planning a romantic evening before the encore
  • Fans wanting to soak up local flavor in a vibrant setting
  • Budget-conscious music fans who still want quality seafood and scenery

What People Say

Guests rave about the fresh fish, generous portions, and the unbeatable views of the bay. The ceviche and grilled whole snapper come highly recommended, and many praise the casual yet classy vibe. The combination of good food, great drinks, and waterfront ambiance makes it a favorite among locals and tourists alike.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers note that the pricing can be a bit on the higher side, and parking in the area can be a challenge if you're not staying at the hotel. If you're in a rush, be sure to let your server know — while service is generally quick, peak times can get busy.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a concert and want fresh seafood with a side of waterfront views, Casablanca On The Bay is a crowd-pleaser that hits all the right notes.
