Don Camaron, Seafood restaurant in Miami, US
Don Camaron is a seafood restaurant in Miami connected to an in-house market that sells fresh fish, shellfish, and prepared dishes. The market counter displays the day's catch, while the dining area is simply furnished and open in layout.
Don Camaron built its place in Miami's food scene around a restaurant-market concept that was not common in the city at the time. The idea of buying and eating seafood in the same spot gave the place a reputation that grew over the years.
The menu draws on Latin American cooking, with dishes like tres mariachis ceviche and grilled tropical fish served with corn pico de gallo. These combinations reflect the seafood traditions that many Miami residents grew up with.
Guests can choose their seafood at the market counter and then have it cooked in the kitchen, so it is worth taking a moment to look over what is on display before ordering. The spot tends to get busy, so coming without time constraints makes the visit easier.
A guest can point to a live or fresh shellfish at the counter and have it on their plate within minutes, all without leaving the building. This kind of direct link between the market and the kitchen is rare even in cities known for seafood.
