Jorge Castillo: However, the river is slowly changing and in many parts, especially near downtown where it empties into Biscayne Bay, it is starting to become a scenic attraction. Where else can you watch huge container barges make their way up and down the river in a never ending parade?
Glenn Lindgren: Here you'll find a combination Cuban seafood restaurant and fish market, Garcia's. The Garcias, Esteban, Esteban Luis and Luis Esteban, run a small fleet of fishing boats that guarantee only the freshest product daily.
Raúl Musibay: We first came here several years ago looking for some fresh shrimp. We saw several people eating fish sandwiches at a table overlooking the river, and how could we resist?
Jorge Castillo: They make the sandwiches with dolphin – the fish, not the mammal – and they are light and crisply battered.
Glenn Lindgren: Everybody wants to eat outside here and unless it's very hot, we recommend grabbing a table with a view of the river. Garcia's is mainly a lunch spot, but you could squeeze in an early dinner here.
