Great views but lackluster service. We made reservations for Sunday night dinner at the Rusty Pelican and valet the car out front which is the only option for parking (6 dollars). We were seated outside with a gorgeous city view of downtown Miami. 20 minutes pass at this point and the server is no where to be found. Finally they stop over and take our drink and food order. I ordered the house wine (17 dollars per glass!) while the other guest ordered a diet Coke. In order to get a refill we had to initiate the request by asking if we could get a refill. The server was never attentive by anticipating our needs but rather went with our direction. The food was what made up for the lackluster service. I wouldn't go back as I feel like for the cost of the meal service should be a lot better.
