About

Bar: Full bar

Walking into Coral Gables Restaurant, you'll find a lively waterfront spot where indoor dining spills onto three outdoor decks. Part of the Coral Gables resort, it's open to non-guests too, with a full bar, food service on the decks, and weekend live entertainment. The menu sticks to American classics, and you can eat inside or out while watching boats at the marina. The place draws a mixed crowd but can get very busy. It's family-owned since 1958 and run by the founder's son since 1985.

The dining room looks dated and could use a refresh, per recent feedback. The food is reasonably priced and okay, but the real draw is the atmosphere: multiple bars, outdoor seating, and a dance floor. Open late on weekends until 2am, seasonal through October. If you want a quieter meal, try Everyday People Cafe nearby. Make reservations through Yelp to skip the weekend wait. Cash or card, full bar, free wifi.

“Nice River View...”

You can sit on the indoor or outdoor patio while eating, and there's live entertainment on weekends; it's very busy. The place is in serious need of a full renovation. The food is just okay and moderately priced. However, it's only open seasonally and shuts down in October.
