WRE News: Beloved Miami Icon Shuckers Waterfront Grill to Close End of October After Nearly 40 Years

Miami, FL – October 11, 2024 – Shuckers Miami, a beloved local establishment, is officially closing its doors after nearly 40 years of serving the community, marking the end of an era for one of the city’s last casual waterfront dining spots.

Founded in 1989, Shuckers has been a favorite for locals seeking laid-back oceanfront charm. Its closure follows a $75 million acquisition by a New York real estate firm and Kygo Music’s Palm Tree Crew, who plan to replace the restaurant with a luxury hotel and high-end dining. Despite the loss, Shuckers’ owners hope to relocate and continue its legacy in the future.

The restaurant’s last day of operation is Sunday, October 27.
