Joe's Stone Crab

Joe's Stone Crab

Joe's Stone Crab, also known as Joe's Stone Crabs, is a high-end restaurant in Miami Beach, Florida. The restaurant was opened in 1913, by Joe Weiss.

Waiting times are often several hours long, due to their having few reserved tables. [ [http://www.southbeach-usa.com/restaurants/reviews/joes.htm Joe's Stone Crab Miami Beach | User Reviews ] ]

Even though stone crabs are their most famous dish now, fish was served, rather than crabs, after the restaurant's opening. When an ichthyologist asked Weiss why he didn't serve stone crabs, he answered that no one would want to eat them. He turned out to be wrong, as they found out soon after first cooking them.
