Joe’s takes pride in over a century of exceptional hospitality. We follow a traditional seating approach, meaning reservations are not available. Instead our Maitre D's seat guests on a first-come, first-served basis.

To reduce your wait time, feel free to join our Maitre D’s List up to 14 days before your visit. Keep in mind, this is not a reservation, and longer waits during peak times are common.

Upon arrival, check in with our Maitre D, and we’ll seat you as soon as possible. Guests must check in with the Maitre D’s no later than 15 minutes after their allocated time; otherwise, they will be moved to the bottom of the list.

While we only accept parties up to 12 guests on our
Maitre D's List, we are able to accommodate larger groups that walk-in.

The Discovery of Stone Crabs

In 1921, just off the shores of Miami Beach, stone crabs were first discovered in the surrounding waters. A Harvard ichthyologist introduced these unique crabs to Joe Weiss, who quickly recognized their culinary potential. It wasn’t long before Joe began serving stone crab claws at his restaurant, sparking the beginning of what would become a legendary dining experience that helped Joe’s Stone Crab rise to fame.

Fascinating Facts About Florida Stone Crabs

Though stone crabs are widely known today, here are a few intriguing facts that may surprise you:

• Found Primarily in Florida Waters: While stone crabs can be found along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts, the commercial harvesting of these prized crustaceans happens almost exclusively in Florida.
• A Sustainable Practice: Florida law protects the stone crab population by prohibiting the harvest of whole crabs. Only claws measuring at least 2.75 inches are taken, and the crabs are carefully returned to the ocean, ensuring they remain a renewable resource.
• Natural Regeneration: Stone crabs possess an amazing ability to regenerate their claws up to three or four times during their lifespan, allowing for sustainable harvesting.
• A Culinary Delicacy: The tender, sweet meat of Florida stone crab claws is best enjoyed in its purest form—served unseasoned with a side of melted butter or Joe's signature mustard sauce for a truly memorable flavor experience.
