A Fish Called Avalon

A Fish Called Avalon has been a cornerstone of South Beach dining since 1989, offering an unparalleled blend of award-winning cuisine, historic ambiance, and exceptional service. Located in the iconic Avalon Hotel within Miami Beach's Art Deco District, we pride ourselves on delivering a culinary experience that combines modern American seafood and meats with tropical influences. Our executive chef, Kal Abdalla, brings over four decades of global culinary expertise, having honed his craft aboard prestigious cruise lines and in renowned kitchens across Europe and the Americas. Recognized for our role in films like Scarface and Miami Vice, we continue to attract both celebrities and discerning diners seeking artfully composed plates featuring seasonal, local ingredients.

Our nightly live music, including performances by Tony Cruz, enhances the sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. With accolades such as Wine Spectator's 'Best Steak in America' and multiple DIRONA awards, we remain committed to excellence in every aspect of our service. Our historic setting, featuring a 1955 Oldsmobile convertible as a photo landmark, offers guests an authentic South Beach experience. From intimate dinners to event hosting in our elegant dining room, we ensure every visit is memorable. Our dedication to quality extends to our staff, with 100% of gratuities going directly to our team. Whether enjoying our signature dishes or participating in our 40th-anniversary Miami Vice events, guests consistently praise us as a must-visit culinary destination.
