The best takeout fish sandwich in Miami/Miami Beach. Otherwise the same menu as inside. You may have to wait a bit for it to be made, and there are only a few seats, so be prepared to eat elsewhere. I like to walk over to the channel and wave to the throngs on the cruise ships.

Didn't even consider going to Joe's Stone Crab. Joe's Takeaway is all the same food without the long wait.

The crabs are so good... we went there twice when we were at SoBe.

Ordered the stonecrabs, fried oyster and the lobster roll.

Def recommend getting the Select crabs as they were a nice size.

Bring it home and get messy there!

This place is hella good.  A group of us wanted to go to Joe's Stone Crab Restaurant, but the wait was awhile and the prices were higher.  This is a great alternative!!

The food was fantastic if you're a seafood lover.  We had the crab cakes which were awesome, the fried oysters which were my favorite, the lobster roll which I thought was ok, the stone crab which I expected it to be a little better, the lobster which was awesome, shrimp, spinach that was pretty tasty, and of course some rolls (pictures uploaded).  Yes, this sounds like a lot of food but it was for 5 girls.  The cost was a little over $100.

If you love seafood, you have to go to this place :D  I think this place was all our favorite from our visit to Miami!!

Not quite the same ambience and experience as eating at Joe's Stone Crab, but if you can't do the long wait (or don't want to), come here and take out the same amazing stone crab claws and dessert.

After our amazing dinner at Joe's, we had to have another pie of that amazing key lime pie, so came over here and took one home. They also had other delicious looking desserts and lots of stone crab claws on ice on display - almost ended up taking out another full dinner home!

Bottom line: Same amazing key lime pie, stone crab claws, and other dishes as Joe's Stone Crab next door. Worth swinging by here before you head to the airport and fly back home.

Only had the key-lime pie at this place and it was awesome.  Kinda pricely but very, very, good.  You can order the pies FedExed to you next day.  They start at about $66/pie and then down to $44/pie for two and about $33/pie if you get three.

Now before others get upset, we visited Joe's on a Sat. for brunch. Being out-of-towners, we heard great reviews about the place...ummm methinks not is definitely right. Now again we ordered EVERYTHING that was considered noted items. We had the conch fritters - doughy and with minuscule "rubber" conch bits..flavor a bit off(?), the Lobster roll...was okay but not a "must-have", the stonecrabs again mediocre, these are some examples..ehhh...sigh overall memorable but not in the good way.

I loved this placed for take away. It was great with high quality ingredients. I had a lobster roll with huge chunks of delicious meat. Get it to go, and go have a picnic on the beach!

A great alternative to Joe's that definitely needs its own review.  I am surprised that other Yelpers lumped take-away in with the more fancy restaurant.  JTA is not cheap if you get crabs or some of their pricey salads, but is a nice casual and relaxed place for a five star meal.

Everything is as good as the restaurant.  My wife insists we do not miss Joe's on our trips to Fla and we loved everything about take-away.  The stone crabs were just as fresh and my lobster roll was excellent.  The sweet potato fries were also tasty.  

Joe's take out had an incredible selection of salads and deserts (cakes, pies, tarts and cakes) and a really nice coffee bar.  If I lived in SFLA, I would definitely be a regular.  One of my favorite places to go.

One of my favorite things to do while in south beach is get take out from Joe's, take it back home and sit on the balcony and have a feast while listening to the waves... the stone crabs are to die for, raw oysters,  fresh fish and the sides are yum yum.

For the restaurant:
Summer hours end July 29,2007
Regular season begins Oct 12, 2007

If you've already had the Joe's dining experience, then you could just go next door to the takeaway and get excellent seafood, including whatever size stone crabs you can afford.  (or the sandwiches from the grill)

I recommend the Select (7 claws) ~$32
get yours before the end of the season (May) comes around
otherwise, if you have any, they will be frozen

Wow- where do I start from...  seafood this fresh and tasty is not found anywhere else in Miami.  Great spot for a Sunday brunch or to take out and enjoy at a picnic.  Enjoy the stone crabs, the oysters, the shrimp or the sandwiches (my favorite: the lobster roll and the blackened mahi-mahi sandwich).
The selection of seafood is outstanding.  The salads and daily specials are great!!! I go back often just to try something new, because everything there tastes so good.  
Your taste buds will be dancing with joy!!!
