The food here at Cato Esquivel is a marvelous feat and grand experience every time we dine. The quality is better than home made and absolutely exquisite and made with extreme detail and attention. This restaurant is one of Miami’s best Seafood restaurant and should be considered a must try by all, tourists and locals. The staff of Eugenia and the rest of the staff were extremely attentive and makes you feel like you are special guests at every visit! Even after COVID, this restaurant has maintained its shining star quality and dining here is always an absolute delicacy. Absolute compliments to the Chef for such greatly presented and tasting food like no other. 10 out of 5 STARS!!!!

My husband and I have been to Cayo Esquivel several times and always have left very satisfied. The food is excellent! And there is a great variety of seafood. The service was very nice. Talaima, our server, was outstanding. She was very helpful and very attentive to us.
We also loved the ambiance!
We certainly will be going back for sure!

We’ve been wanting to check this place out for quite some time, so we finally planned a date night. I could go into a lot of details, but I’ll keep it brief. We paid $48 for two appetizers that were less than mediocre. The fried calamari was the worst I’ve had. It was salty, rubbery, and the fact that it didn’t even come with a lemon on the side is shocking. The octopus was highly recommended by our waiter. It was unfortunately barely better than the calamari. We decided to scrap the date and go elsewhere because of how bad the appetizers were. The only great part was the artwork on the walls. Those were a vibe and we really enjoyed the funny details.

A Hidden Gem for Seafood Lovers

During a recent visit to Cayo Esquivel Seafood with my mom, we discovered what might just be the best seafood spot in town. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere that set the tone for an excellent dining experience.

The restaurant has a cozy, laid-back vibe, perfect for a casual yet satisfying meal. The decor subtly hints at the sea, enhancing the authenticity of the experience. While the space is not overly fancy, it’s the kind of place where you feel comfortable, making it ideal for family dinners or casual get-togethers with friends.
The service was fantastic. Our server, though I regret not remembering his name, was attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. He made sure we were well taken care of, and our food arrived quickly and freshly prepared.

Now, let’s get to the real highlight – the food. Cayo Esquivel is no joke when it comes to serving high-quality seafood at a price that feels almost too good to be true.

Seafood Parrillada ($29.99) This dish is a must-try. For just under $30, you get an enormous platter of seafood, including two succulent lobster tails and a generous assortment of shrimp, fish, calamari, and more. Every bite was fresh and flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and grilled to perfection. It’s so plentiful that it’s easily sharable between two people. The value for this dish is unbeatable – seafood this good at this price is rare!

Their ceviches are another standout. The freshness of the fish, combined with the zing of citrus and the right amount of seasoning, makes this dish the perfect starter. It’s light, refreshing, and bursting with flavors, a testament to the quality of their seafood.

Cayo Esquivel proves that you don’t need to break the bank to enjoy quality seafood. The portion sizes are extremely generous, and the prices are shockingly affordable considering the variety and amount of seafood you get. It’s a fantastic value for anyone who loves seafood but is conscious of their budget.

If you’re a seafood lover and you haven’t visited Cayo Esquivel, you’re missing out. From the outstanding service to the incredible food and unbeatable prices, it’s a place I would recommend 100%. Whether you’re craving fresh ceviche or an epic seafood feast like the parrillada, this restaurant delivers on every front. I’m definitely planning to return soon, and I can’t wait to share this hidden gem with more friends and family.

The food is always amazing! I highly recommend the Parmesan Garlic Mahi — uff, it’s delicious. But what really makes the experience special is the service. Eugenia was an absolute delight — warm, friendly, and genuinely attentive. She made our visit even better. Definitely one of my favorite spots!

Food was really good
Service was ok, we ordered 2 Fish croquetas 2 Frituras de Bacalao and a Fish Dip for appetizer. We share filete de Corvina in White Sauce it was delicious.
For dessert we got a Flan de Coco also very good.
the only reason why I give 4 stars is because the Frituras de Bacalao and the fish dip wasn’t that good.
But overall i planing of going back to tey something else.
