*****  Scotty’s Landing, 3381 Pan American Drive, Coconut Grove, Florida 33133 (305) 854-2626.

First let me start by saying, that tee shirts/shorts are considered “formal wear” at Scotty’s Landing.  This joint doesn’t have a website, so picture an outdoor bar/restaurant where you eat and drink under a huge striped awning…the joint is located right on Biscayne Bay, and has enough appetizers, salads, sandwiches and burgers at diner-prices to please everyone. Gourmet food?…now let’s get serious. If you looked-up the word “casual” in your Webster’s, you would find Scotty’s picture…this joint is all about the weather, the view and eating outside half-naked (hopefully the folks around you look good half-naked, the possibilities here are endless).

Scotty’s is why we all live down here in South Florida…take your New York friends to this joint and I guarantee that after they eat, they will run to  a real estate broker to find them an apartment or a condo for next “Season.”

Scotty’s is open for lunch and dinner Sunday-Thursday 11am-10pm and Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm.
