    Pork empanada
    Jose M.

    Great food had the Cuban sandwich and pork empanada. The pork empanada has to be made right in order to taste good. This was perfectly seasoned and perfectly fried.

    Prices.

    This was convenient being that it's right outside the Hampton. I thought it was overpriced but I will say the portions were very generous. The Cuban didn't taste authentic but it wasn't bad. The fries, they were definitely fried in old oil. The empanada was super stuffed with chicken, it was basically a meal sized empanada. Surely there are better places but for convenience, this works.

    So happy we tried this food truck!!! Everything we got tasted very delicious. The cuban sandwich was so good!! A lot of tender pieces of pork! I skipped the fries so I could eat the whole thing. The sweet plantains were very tasty as well. My hubby had the ribs, cuban rice and beans. He absolutely loved the rice and beans. The meat fell right off the bone. He tried my sandwich and really liked it as well. We also got the cheese sticks, those were so good!

    The service was top notch. After a long day of flying and being half starved we pulled up to our hotel and seen they were open. Food was fresh, fast and delicious. Totally recommend the chicken empanadas! You won't be disappointed grabbing a bite there.

    Location is incorrect, waste of gas & time. Did not answer when I tried to call. They should update their location and hours.

    Pork sandwich was amazing as was the empanada. Outdoor seating would have been okay if not for the tropical weather.

    Captain Jim's has the freshest seafood in North Miami…read more We often dine in, but occasionally we've also taken fish or lobsters to grill when tailgating etc., and it's always way better and fresher than what we would have picked up anywhere else. Choosing which lobster or yellowtail from the ice counter you want them to prepare, and how you want it prepared, is a fun part of the dining experience for us. Occasionally they have hog snapper or another fresh catch available. The fried lobster tail was fantastically seasoned with a little kick, and I've never had it prepared this way, chopped up into bite-sized pieces. Very filling and we could have shared one, but we still managed to devour both tails and left very full and satisfied. Each tail, including one side, was about $40 - but market price items vary based on size and weight of what's available that day. There are also plenty of less expensive options on the menu. One of my favorites is the yellowtail sandwich. And if you get there before 7:00pm you can order some oysters and lobster croquettes from the happy hour menu. Captain Jim's is a casual and comfortable restaurant with marine decor where the food is the star. Service is always friendly, helpful, and attentive.

Quite little Seafood Restaurant in a small Strip Mall has a kinda unique feature that you don't see too often in South Florida but is common in my "Neck Of The Woods", there's a Fresh Seafood Market attached. The menu is not large but it has some pretty good items. Some are standard South Florida menu items Calamari, Conch Salad, Fritter, Scampi are among the offerings but there are a few standouts like: Blackened Fish, Shrimp Creole, Buffalo Shrimp, Caribbean Fish Soup, Shrimp And Grits, Po Boys and a few other sandwiches and pastas round out the menu. But the star of the show are the Fresh Shucked Oysters. From Virginia and only a $1.25 during Happy Hour, these oysters are delicious and have a different taste than their primos from the Gulf Of Mexico that I grew up on.....delicious nonetheless. The great staff makes dining here a much better experience. You're warmly welcomed and presented with a little bite of Krab Salad as soon as you sit. Happy Hour starts at 4PM and ends at 7PM. Do not miss the opportunity to indulge, it's a nice gateway to the great dinner you'll enjoy.

    The restaurant is right next to the Sonesta where we are using a Dayuse pass after our cruise but…read morebefore our flight tonight. They have a big patio; several TV's playing sports and misters when it's hot. It was a gorgeous breezy day today. We totally could have split one meal- HUGE portions and unfortunately; couldn't eat it all. It was very tasty however; the Cole slaw was lite and the fries were excellent. I felt bad we left so much- we couldn't take it with us since we were headed to the airport. Anyway, service was attentive - total bill was about $35 before tip. We'd definitely return if we are in the area.

They also have a small dining area with a bar in the middle and a decent-sized enclosed patio. We choose to sit out on the patio. We were lucky enough to get the piano table. The restaurant, as you would guess, serves mostly seafood, but also has burgers, soups, salads, and steak. They also have an unpublished kids' menu and happy hour specials. They also have live music on weekends; luckily, we missed it. I heard that it can get loud, and we were just getting over a cruise hangover. My kids got the pasta and the steak kids' meals. I got the Snapper Sandwich. Our food was ready in less than 10 minutes and was very hot. I will say that they have large portions. Our food was ok. Nothing special. My kids did not finish their food and said that it was just mahhhhhh. My sandwich was the same. It was very greasy and not much to write home about. I also got a side of sweet plantains, and they were really good. Our server was very attentive and friendly. He was very busy and kept up with the pace. I would say that this restaurant is actually a 3.5-star joint, but since that is not an option, I will say that it is closer to a 3 than a 4 based on the food. If you are in the area and looking for some seafood, i would probably give this spot some consideration.
