We photograph the wedding of Paulynn & Stephan this past weekend at The Rusty Pelican. It was the perfect location. Having the Miami Skyline as a background contributed to the wonderful pictures that we captured that day. The staff was very professional and the food was great.

The worst place to do a wedding!!Unfortunately, We decided to do our wedding at Rusty Pelican and it was the worst experience my husband and I have ever had.

First of all, at the wedding day the Management team were very rude (Alejandra Gallo and her team), not helpful at all. But the biggest surprise was when we signed the final bill, they charged in our credit card a huge amount of drinks that our guests never ordered. I even wrote the director of catering (Ana Confino) of the restaurant and never got a proper reply from them.

It was a huge "FRAUD"

My wife and I went there on our first date 8 years ago. Last night we decided to celebrate our wedding anniversary by having dinner there. Bad move!! Our waiter seemed in a big hurry. We ordered cocktails and I specified that I wanted a Bombay Saphire Martini. Well Bombay it wasnt. I was served some cheap well Gin. Next, the appetizer(Crab Cakes) was burnt beyond belief and had no taste. I asked our waiter for more bread. He took what was in the basket and 20 minutes later I had to ask again. This time he brought back the basket with what was supposed to be cheese toast except that they forgot the cheese. After a long wait(our in a hurry waiter never asked if we wanted another cocktail) our entees arrived. My wife ordered the twin lobster tails(45.00) and I saw her struggling to cut one of the tails. She offered me the other. It was like rubber!! Overcooked, hard and with an ammonia aftertaste. I truly do not recommend to anyone to eat there. Aside from the view of of the Brickell skyline, this place has nothing to offer. A true, bonafide tourist trap. Too bad!! This used to be a top notch eatery. Now it is nothing of that sort and is extremely overpriced. They will never see another penny of my money and I have already mentioned my displeasure to several friends and family. The Bonefish Grille is much cheaper and their food is fresh and tasty. Not banquet style like the Rusty Pelican.
