In 1964, with Cuba in the grips of Castro’s Communist regime and their business confiscated by the government, the first of the Garcia brothers headed to Miami to start a new life. As was the case for so many other exiles during that time, day and night, the brothers fished and worked for local companies with the hopes to save enough money to one day start their own seafood business in Miami.

In 1966, that dream became a reality when Garcia’s Brothers Seafood was established. Initially a fresh fish market, processing plant, and wholesaler, the Garcias saw their business thrive thanks to their fresh catch, hard work, and dedication. Setting their sights higher, they then started Garcia’s Seafood Grille & Fish Market. Today, 50 years later, Mami and her sons continue the family tradition of offering excellent service and the freshest seafood.
