Cantina Beach Restaurant - The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne Reviews List

Cantina Beach Restaurant - The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne

All set to a backdrop of endless blue ocean and colorful, casually sophisticated décor, Miami"s only oceanfront, coastal Mexican restaurant, Cantina Beach presents innovative menu additions and daily specials inspired by Mexico's culinary regions, created by Chiapas, Mexico-native Chef de Cuisine, Andres Parlange. Vibrant hues of red and blue alongside espresso furnishings accent the cavernous, thatched palapa roofed restaurant, built by the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians. Plush lounges, tiki torches and a fire pit complement the natural oceanfront setting, which is so captivating in its beauty that the island's first settlers named the location, "favorite path of the rising moon." A Tequilier (tequila specialist trained in Mexico's Agave growing regions) Heriberto Ovideo offers recommendations on the restaurants 85 premium tequila selection, the largest 100 percent Agave tequila collection in Miami.

"The food was really good but the service was great--hard to beat a Ritz Carlton's service. Definitely a casual vibe with a not so casual price but the view is terrific....go before it is dark out."

"The service was excellent from all of the staff, the location is stunning, the food was good at a fair price considering the location. The prices for the Margaritas however are a joke. Having to pay $ 17 for a basic Margarita in a plastic cup which didn't even taste great is unacceptable even in a RC Hotel."
