Its reputation is deserved. You will not have a better meal in the Miami area than the one you will have at Joe's Stone Crab. The prob- lem: you can't get in. Particularly when the snowbirds start flocking to Miami, the wait for a table for dinner is in the two-hour neigh- borhood. They don't take reservations. The solution: go for lunch. When I arrived at noon the place was three-quarters empty, I was seated immediately and then enjoyed a meal every bit as good as what you get during the dinner hour. Don't think outside the box when it comes to ordering. Yes, they have a wide variety of fish on the menu as well as steaks, but the name of the restaurant is not Joe's Steak and Fish, is it? Joe's is a legendary dining spot because it serves the best stone crabs and key lime pie you've ever had. Do not order anything else. I had the "Joe's Classic Meal," which consists of three stone crab claws, an order of cole slaw (which is delicious), hash browns, creamed spinach and a slice of key lime pie. Marvelous doesn't begin to describe how good the meal was. JOE'S STONE CRAB 11 Washington Avenue Miami Beach Noon Day 1: Indulge, Relax 6
