Barton G the Restaurant Write a Review
1427 West Ave American, Contemporary $$$$ South Beach  
The swank, attractive surroundings; swank, attractive crowd; thoughtful wine list; alluring fare; and countless titillating details make Barton G the most daringly and delightfully different restaurant to open in Miami Beach since the respective debuts of China Grill and Tantra -- and this one is a lot more affordable. Those who know of Barton's... More>>
Bourbon Steak, A Michael Mina Restaurant Write a Review
19999 W Country Club Dr Asian Other, Contemporary, Steakhouse $$$$ North Dade  
Bourbon Steak is a contemporary American steak house, and as such does not serve the style of cuisine traditionally associated with the uppermost echelon of establishments. Yet when à la carte entrée accompaniments include butter-poached lobster tail, grilled foie gras, and roasted marrow bones, well, let’s just say this... More>>
Chef Allen's Restaurant 3 User Reviews
19088 NE 29th Ave Contemporary $$$$ North Dade  
Chef/owner Allen Susser has achieved national recognition as one of the founders of New World cuisine, which he now refers to as "Palm Tree Cuisine," a cross-cultural connection of landscapes linked by tropicality -- Latin America, the Pacific Rim, the Caribbean, and the Mediterranean. Chef Allen's classic dishes have been appropriated by so... More>>
Domo Japones Write a Review
4000 NE 2nd Ave Japanese / Sushi $$$$ Miami / Central Dade  
This hip and stylish new Design District entry is crowded with a cocktail of chic scenesters fizzed with local folks, but sushi/nigiri/sashimi selections and “Japanese bistro fare” are the real scene-stealers. Chef Timon Balloo’s menu weaves local, organic, and distinctive ingredients into a clean and simple tapestry of innovative... More>>
Escopazzo Write a Review
1311 Washington Ave Italian $$$$ South Beach  
Though owner Pino Bodoni hails from a Roman restaurateur family, this isn’t Mama’s home cucina -- and it sure ain’t your mom’s Italian-American spaghetti and meatballs, either. Bodoni’s inventive wife/chef Giancarla does turn out a mean authentic tagliatelle Bolognese, but most of the menu (as of April 2004) is packed... More>>
Hiro Japanese Restaurant and Sushi & Yakitori Bar 2 User Reviews
3007 NE 163rd St Japanese / Sushi $$ North Beaches  
Soothing jazz soundtracks and late-night hours (till 3:30 a.m.) make Hiro appealing for cocktail-hour snacks and after-movie munchies, but grilled yakitori and fresh sushi rolls are appropriate for mealtimes, too. Don't pass up the spider roll (made with soft-shell crab) or the salmon, scallion, and cream cheese roll, a creamy delicacy designed... More>>
Ideas Restaurant 1 User Reviews
2833 Bird Ave Spanish $$$$ Coconut Grove / Key Biscayne  
Chef Alvaro Beade hails from Valladolid, in the Spanish province of Castilla y León, and many of Idea’s foodstuffs are imported from here as well -- most notably Mediterranean seafoods such as calamarilike cuttlefish, lubina (sea bass), and dorada (sea bream), the last cooked in a sea salt crust. You can watch the chef and his... More>>
Il Migliore Trattoria Write a Review
2576 NE Miami Gardens Dr Italian $$$ North Dade  
This quaintly appointed Tuscan-style trattoria is a gem. The menu and cuisine are as elemental as can be, chef/owner Neal Cooper favoring fresh, quality ingredients over complicated cooking techniques. Actually there’s no cooking involved when it comes to cold appetizers of prosciutto, bresaola, and beef carpaccio, all lavishly portioned... More>>
Joe Allen Write a Review
1787 Purdy Ave American $$$ South Beach  
Despite being located just a Manolo Blahnik’s throw from the bustle, hustle, and flow of Ocean Drive and Lincoln Road, Joe Allen is more about grits than glitz. The square dining room with a long bar at the entrance is comfortable and casual rather than intimidating, and designed to within an inch of its life -- a study in cool grays and... More>>
La Marea 1 User Reviews
1220 Ocean Dr Mediterranean $$$$ South Beach  
The new, improved Tides has really revived with the arrival of Italian chef Pietro Rota and his clean, uncomplicated Mediterranean fare. Take the open ravioli appetizer, an ethereal sheet of pasta draped over creamed potato mousseline so smooth that from here on out, regular mashed potatoes will seem like something only primates should eat.... More>>
The Mahogany Grille 5 User Reviews
2190 NW 183rd St Southern / Soul Food $$ North Dade  
Mahogany Grille is neither a sports bar nor a funky chitterlings joint, but a handsome soul food restaurant with warm, namesake wooden accents and fresh flowers on white linen tablecloths -- the idea being that the humble nature of the cuisine shouldn’t preclude it from being eaten in style. Resist eating too much of the irresistible corn... More>>
Maison d'Azur at the Anglers Write a Review
660 Washington Ave French, Seafood $$$$ South Beach  
This fantastic seafood brasserie takes its name and cue from the Côte d’Azur, and it is so understatedly chic that it’s easy to imagine the Riviera coast twinkling below. The main indoor room echoes a timeless, romantic brasserie, with wood floors, arched windows, and linen-draped tables each set with a candle and rose. Cuisine... More>>
Michael’s Genuine Food & Drink 2 User Reviews
130 NE 40th St Contemporary $$$$ Miami / Central Dade  
Like all great American cooking, new and old, chef/owner Michael Schwartz’s food comes from heart, not haute. It also comes from hearth, as in a wood-fired vidalia onion, its soft, sweet, translucent rings smokily roasted and cupped around ground lamb scrambled with apricots and Moroccan spices. Many of the meals here emerge from that... More>>
Michy's Write a Review
6927 Biscayne Blvd Contemporary $$$ North Dade  
Miami’s hottest chef, Michelle Bernstein, is literally sweating it out over a hot stove in her modest 50-seat restaurant on a not-yet-up-and-coming stretch of Biscayne Boulevard. Michy’s is like the classical European restaurants of yesteryear, when everything was made from scratch. Whole chickens, ducks, and fish are taken apart and... More>>
North One 10 Write a Review
11052 Biscayne Blvd American, Contemporary $$$$ Miami / Central Dade  
Cream-colored brick walls conspire with blond woods, amber-colored glass, a very low ceiling, and little else, to form a refreshingly unpretentious -- or just plain dull -- ambiance, depending upon personal taste in such matters. Most would agree the overall effect is cozy, and anyone acquainted with great cooking will cheer the fresh,... More>>
The Oceanaire Seafood Room 2 User Reviews
900 S. Miami Ave Seafood $$$$ Miami / Central Dade  
When Joe’s Stone Crab premiered on South Beach in 1913, it was the first classic American seafood house in the Miami area. Ninety-four years later, with the opening of the Oceanaire Seafood Room in Mary Brickell Village, we finally have our second. With its elegantly sweeping curves, polished wood finishes, horseshoe-shape booths, and big... More>>
Ortanique on the Mile 1 User Reviews
278 Miracle Mile Caribbean, Contemporary $$ Coral Gables  
Named after the rare ortanique, a tropical citrus fruit, the restaurant is elegant in an islandy kind of way. Some of the signature dishes from the creative Caribbean palette include: pumpkin bisque with pepper sherry sauce, jerk chicken penne, conch fritters, snapper escovitche, and grilled tuna with papaya and mango salad. New additions... More>>
Pascal's on Ponce 1 User Reviews
2611 Ponce de Leon Blvd French $$$$ Coral Gables  
This modest 16-table, 55-seat room hasn’t changed much since celebrated chef Pascal Oudin first opened the doors to his place in 2000. The space is well lighted and conspicuously clean -- the walls freshly painted, linens neatly pressed, nosegays of unblemished roses blooming upon each table. The cuisine is equally bloomed and unblemished.... More>>
Prime One Twelve Write a Review
112 Ocean Dr American, Steakhouse $$$$ South Beach  
There’s much more than just beef at this inventive New American steak house. Noncarnivores can also dine happily on creative "chef’s composition" entrées featuring poultry or seafood (like wild salmon -- incomparably better than farmed fish -- with a lemon nage); or on meal-sized salads like the signature Prime 112 (romaine,... More>>
Rosa Mexicano 3 User Reviews
900 S Miami Ave Mexican $$ Miami / Central Dade  
Miami folks in 2007 are in the same place New Yorkers were in ’84: hungering for the clean, complex flavors that characterize real Mexican cooking. Just like back then, Rosa Mexicano comes through for its new hometown. The spicily colored dining room is stylish but has a franchised feel that doesn’t evoke Mexico any more than P.F.... More>>
Sardinia Enoteca Ristorante 1 User Reviews
1801 Purdy Ave Italian $$$ South Beach  
Get off to a rousing start by assembling your own personalized antipasti platter from among meats (coppa, bresaola, prosciutto di parma), vegetables (braised fennel, roast beets, assortment of olives with wild fennel flowers), and cheeses (Gorgonzola, Taleggio), presented upon gorgeously garnished wooden boards, ideal for sharing over a quartino... More>>
Su-Shin Izakaya Write a Review
159 Aragon Ave Japanese / Sushi $$$ Coral Gables  
Not just a sushi joint, this bustling lunch-and-dinner spot in downtown Coral Gables offers daily specials -- scribbled in Kanji and English on blackboards that run the length of the east wall -- depending on what's fresh. A treasure on the regular menu is the spicy kimuchi ramen , a fiery interpretation of traditional noodle soup, a... More>>
Talula Write a Review
210 23rd St Contemporary $$$$ South Beach  
When Talula opened in June 2003, its culinary style could have been labeled “cutting-edge comfort food” (chef/owners Frank Randazzo and Andrea Curto-Randazzo call it “creative American cuisine”). Influences remain the same -- some dishes based on Asian ingredients, others invoking the Mediterranean or American Southwest.... More>>
Timo Restaurant & Bar Write a Review
17624 Collins Ave American, Contemporary, Greek / Mediterranean $$$ North Beaches  
Owners Tim Andriola and Rodrigo Martinez are, respectively, chef and general manager, and both talented at what they do. The two were working on premises shortly after Timó opened and are still doing likewise today. This place is consistent -- consistently fine. The casually upscale 120-seat room is defined by warm, contemporary urban... More>>
1200 Restaurant at the Biltmore Hotel Write a Review
