Top Best American Restaurants in Brickell

"Perched at the top of South Beach’s 1111 Lincoln Road building, designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architects Herzog & de Meuron, Juvia offers spectacular scenery along with a winning menu. With both indoor and outdoor seating, a vertical garden and 280-degree views of Greater Miami stretching from the beach to Biscayne Bay, you’ll feel like you’re on top of the world. The cuisine at this fine-dining establishment combines French techniques with Asian and Latin flavors."

"Those seeking a refreshing change to the usual SoBe restaurants should look up...way, way up, at the rooftop gem known as Juvia. Flaunting French, Japanese, and Peruvian inspired dishes, this eclectic eatery boasts nothing but the freshest ingredients and boldest flavors. Located at the top of the 1111 Garage on Lincoln Road, Juvia is a popular spot for lunch for the South Beach business crowd (with a $23 prix-fixe menu, why wouldn't it be)."

"Another great spot that you will find in lincoln road is Juvia, where you can enjoy the breathtaking views of south beach. Unfortunately, with the sky-high views, the price of food and drinks is also high. But, if you genuinely want to enjoy the vacations right then, you must come to juvia."

"The solo debut by Miami’s own Top Chef winner, Jeremy Ford, Stubborn Seed is a cozy-yet-hip South of Fifth spot turning out some of the city’s most elevated cuisine. While there is a complete a la carte menu with dishes like ricotta gnudi, warm celery root with crispy mushrooms, and smoked prime rib, the real highlight here is the tasting menu, where guests can try a bevy of classics and seasonal creations, plus get some of its melt-in-your mouth gooey snickerdoodle cookies to take home to remember the meal."

"The brunch menu is split between sweet and savory making it easy to order dessert for breakfast. Go for the Chai waffles with whipped espresso cream and spiced syrup. Maybe the espresso cream will help fight off the sugar coma."

"Big Pink is one of the most popular restaurants for breakfast in South Beach. Part of the Myles restaurant group Big Pink has been serving guests since 1996 with over 200 different menu items. So everyone in your group will find something to eat!"

"The Big Pink is a bustling eatery right off Ocean Drive with a large menu and generous portions. Fuel up here to get ready for your exploration of the Art Deco District."

"In Miami’s historic MiMo District, Blue Collar has been serving up some of the best comfort food dishes in the city for nearly seven years (wow!) though it feels like just yesterday Chef Daniel Serfer arrived on the scene. He opened Mignonette, another instant success, just two years after Blue Collar. The brunch menu consists of Eggy Stuff, Syrupy Stuff, Othery Stuff, Sandwichy Stuff, and Salady Stuff and please believe us when we say you can’t go wrong no matter what your palate fancies."

"Heath Bar bread pudding and a rotating selection of cakes are what’s curbing sweet tooth craving at MiMo’s Blue Collar. Call ahead to ask what’s available. Rumor has it, the dessert menu is a bit bigger if the order is placed for takeout versus delivery."

"This small restaurant serves up tasty comfort food at reasonable prices. 6730 Biscayne Blvd, Miami, FL 33138 (See On Google Maps)"

"Ethiopian-Swedish chef Marcus Samuelsson has finally opened Red Rooster Overtown after months of COVID-induced delays. This is the third Red Rooster (the original is in Harlem, a second is located in London), and it promises to shine a light on Overtown's historical and cultural importance as the formative center of Black arts and music in Miami. As such, Red Rooster will act as a venue for local musicians to showcase their talents while diners enjoy dishes such as "Hot Honey Yardbird" (Samuelsson’s famed fried chicken) and "Obama’s Short Ribs" (a dish served to the former president at the original Red Rooster)."

"Marcus Samuelsson brought the restaurant concept that exploded him on to the national stage to Overtown, one of Miami's first Black neighborhoods, and he couldn't have done it any better. The food is a harmonious mix of soul food with Latin and Caribbean flavors, like the cornbread with rum butter and the Yard Bird that uses less batter than the Harlem location, and adds a sour orange hot honey. But just as important as the menu is the atmosphere, which is rollicking and vibrant."

"American , Latin ,  Caribbean"

"Situated in the heart of Wynwood Arts District, one of Miami’s most culturally askew neighborhoods, R House is a contemporary restaurant & bar as heralded for its soulful menu as it is for its bustling weekend brunch scene. The local gem will host a special  Valentine’s Day DragBrunch on Sunday, February 14 at 11:30AM and again 2:30PM. Hosted by Athena Dion (Miss Ultimate Miami Drag Queen), the Valentine’s Day Drag Brunch will feature an impressive spread of brunch items to nosh on while enjoying an extravagant, themed performance by some of Miami’s most talented drag stars."

"The drag brunch at R House, held Saturdays and Sundays ($50 per person plus tax and tip) is hosted by the lively and talented Athena Dion. Some performers come and go sporadically, but many return weekend after weekend, forming relationships with their audience. As mimosa no. 1 sneakily becomes mimosa no. 7, Juicy Love Dion, Morphine Love, and other local drag stars perform to tracks by Beyoncé, Megan Thee Stallion, Jennifer Lopez, and more, each with their own unique style, flair, and preferred playlist."

"Cushioned in couture, Politan Row (formerly known as St. Roch Market) is the Design District’s answer to traditional retail dining. From a vegan bakery to a fried chicken stand, this laid-back emporium holds space for an eclectic group of food entrepreneurs to show off their knife skills."

"The scene inside Pubbelly Sushi’s brick-walled dining room in Sunset Harbour is hip and casual, and there's outdoor sidewalk seating as well. Here, the perfect order might include the bigeye tuna roll on a crispy, sticky rice cake with truffle oil; the snow crab roll with clarified butter; the Wagyu beef tartare roll; rock shrimp tempura; and Shishito peppers. Keep an open mind, too, because these “deconstructed” sushi rolls don't resemble anything you’ve seen before."

"Run by Sergio Navarro and Jose Mendin – a James Beard Award nominee – Pubbelly Noodle Bar caters to pork lovers. At this Bayshore hotspot, bao buns are jammed with suckling pig, dumplings swell with pork belly and slabs of barbecue pork float in bowls of ramen. The space is polished and modern, filled with conversation and music."

"Restaurants Pan-Asian South Beach. The fusion concept you weren’t expecting, MILA is “MediterrAsian” restaurant and lounge that overlooks a busy stretch of Lincoln Road. Its expansive indoor-outdoor terrace incorporates minimalistic design elements like sleek, sculpted wood tabletops, unpolished floors, metal and clay artworks and natural textiles to impressively decadent effect."

"The swanky and massive 13,000-square-foot space boasts a serenely stylish indoor dining area, an outdoor terrace complete with an intimate omakase-style bar, and bites like shawarma-spiced wagyu dumplings, Alaskan king crab tempura, and an assortment of nigiri and sashimis."

"The valet parking was easy and amazing, which is hard to find on the beach. We had to change our table to a better location."

"For a more chilled beach day option, head to North Beach Oceanside Park, a serene destination, out of the way of the hustle and bustle of Miami Beach’s hotels and restaurants. Pack your cooler to the brim, bring a Pub sub, and take in the blissful scene of the Atlantic Ocean. The park also features shaded walking trails, a bike path, and a dog park and playground to entertain the kids and fur babies."

"If you’re in North Beach and find yourself craving some legit Cuban cuisine, this is your spot. Go for breakfast and go hungry. Get the ham and sweet plantain omelette and wash it down with a cortadito, or some fresh-squeezed OJ."

"It offers indoor and outdoor dining and it is open 7 days a week. It is located a short walk from the beach."

"Probably the last time you ate brunch at the Rusty Pelican it was for a daytime wedding reception, but this storied venue with a postcard view of the skyline has seriously upped its food game in the last two years, and is a must-visit if you haven’t been. Try the pork belly waffle sandwich with sundried tomato and maple mustard sauce. Or, if you’d like something sweeter, try the Frosted Flake-crusted french toast topped with caramel sauce and cinnamon whipped cream.How to order: Reservations available on OpenTable"

"When the weather is nice in Miami (but who are we kidding, it’s always nice here) nothing is better than dining outside on the water. The Rusty Pelican kicks it up a notch by having some of the best views of the Miami skyline."

"This Miami staple still boasts one of the best views of the city. Head to Key Biscayne for a quiet lunch or watch the silhouette of the cityscape grow at sunset."

"The Boiling Crab was started in 2004 with the dream to serve the best tail in the city of Miami. It is located at 5829 SW 73rd St, South Miami that is known for bold flavors, fresh seafood, and plenty of fun. The menu features seafood dishes like Dungeness Crab, Fried Shrimp Basket, Shabang Bang Shrimp, Fried Calamari, Naked Crawfish, and more."
