"The kingpin of Lincoln Road fine dining, Juvia is the mall’s rooftop hot spot and is perfect for a date night filled with chic people watching. Diners whisk up to the ninth floor of the 1111 Lincoln Road building for skyline views and a medley of French, Japanese, and Peruvian cuisine. View this post on Instagram"

"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 swankiest rooftop terrace in all of Miami and the coldest pinot grigio in town. Insider tip: Arrive 30 minutes before sunset, order a few appetizers and get ready for a magical evening. 1111 Lincoln Rd., Miami Beach; 305-763-8272 orjuviamiami.com"

"While grabbing a table at Stubborn Seed is usually hard to do, now that it offers takeout, guests can try out the cuisine anytime they’d like. Opt for the warm celery root, crunchy truffle potatoes, and the wagyu filet. And don’t miss the gooey snickerdoodle cookies for dessert."

"Stubborn Seed is a contemporary American restaurant in South Beach from chef Jeremy Ford, famous for his appearance on TV’s Top Chef. The small space brings together Art Deco and i..."

"There were some pretty small portions, but some really great tastes. We didn't love everything we tried, but it was definite..."

"The Big Pink is a popular hangout spot in Miami Beach, known especially for its late-night hours and great comfort food. Open Monday through Wednesday from 8am to midnight, Thursday through Saturday from 8am to 5:30am, and on Sundays from 8am to 2am, Big Pink has a fun, retro feel with its shiny red tables, tall, industrial ceilings and fixtures, and delicious, classic foods. Breakfast, which is served anytime during Big Pink’s opening hours, consists of everything from a basic bagel and cream cheese to Pinky’s Hollywood Breakfast, which comes with two poached eggs, polenta fries, applewood smoked bacon, cheese sauce, fresh basil, and sautéed spinach."

"A pretty pink photo spot, Big Pink is an ‘all-hours’ diner situated in Miami Beach. While the diner's exterior makes for a brilliant photo op, with its powder pink walls and hot pink Volkswagen Beetles lined up outside, the interior is equally as Instagrammable. Grab yourself some gourmet comfort food (we’ve got our eye on the mac n cheese), snap some pics and take in the dining experience."

"For breakfast, it’s The Big Pink. This iconic South Beach diner opens daily at 8 am. The pink building, tables, chairs and even the magenta, delivery Beetle are much daintier than the portions; sharing is strongly suggested."

"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."

"Though in many cities brunch is reserved for Saturday and Sunday, other cities also have people with jobs they can legally explain. Blue Collar gets Miami’s flex schedule lifestyle and offers a full brunch menu all day, every day. So if you’re hankering for brioche French toast, shrimp and grits, or a massive breakfast burrito with chipotle sour cream and 3pm on a Monday, they’re happy to oblige."

"This Speakeasy will take you back in time to the roaring ‘20s. The ambience is romantic, classy, intimate and musically inclined. The cocktails are all inspired by the prohibition era classics, and there are a dozen of these liquid delights."

"This restaurant is what you would see on a commercial about Miami!. It is a boutique restaurant with an intimate ambiance, dark furniture and decor to giv..."

"Located in the vibrant Design District, Michael’s Genuine Food & Drink is a friendly, laid-back neighborhood bistro that serves delicious homemade and seasonal cuisine for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch. Chef/owner Michael Schwartz is dedicated to using only the freshest ingredients for his menu, which offers dishes such as chargrilled octopus, shitake mushroom risotto, and triggerfish ceviche, all of whose ingredients are sourced from local farmers and producers. The food menu is accompanied by an exciting list of handcrafted cocktails, beer, and wine."

"Sometimes after a long night of vodka-sodas, you wake up seriously craving some diner food. And if you happen to live in Downtown or Brickell, that no longer means having to drag your hungover self through beach traffic to get it. This retro destination delivers a menu of over-the-top waffle flavors like bacon and cheddar and Oreo and Nutella alongside a waffle sandwich filled with ham, swiss, and fried eggs."

"Miami Diner, which already has a Downtown location, just opened in the old David’s Cafe space. They’ve got one of those very large diner menus, with burgers, breakfast, milkshakes, sandwiches, salads, pasta, and more."

"HistoryMiami doesn't sound like the name of a historical museum, which is exactly what organizers and board members had in mind. The less-bulky name signified a new direction for what was previously called the Historical Museum of Southern Florida. Today, the museum, which actually began as a historical association in 1940 (George Merrick and Marjory Stoneman Douglas were members) continues to offer the exhibits that were developed throughout the previous decades, along with new ones."

"Don’t let the museum’s rather plain Mediterranean-style building and courtyard fool you: Inside, HistoryMiami paints a colorful portrait of how the city transformed itself from a mosquito-filled swampland to one of the country’s most vibrant urban areas. Located in Miami’s downtown, the museum is not one you’ll likely stumble upon while wandering the city—which is a good thing if you prefer quieter spaces ($10/adult).

"HistoryMiami Museum, formerly known as the Historical Museum of Southern Florida, was founded in 1940 and is the largest history museum in the state of Florida. The museum offers the community, its residents and visitors meaningful ways to connect with the rich past as well as the ever-evolving future of the region and its diverse inhabitants."

"This popular weekend spot is one of America’s largest kids’ museums – and every inch of the space is dedicated to teaching youngsters about the world around them. With 14 galleries spread over two floors, there’s an exhibit to spark every type of tot’s imagination ($22/adult). Find out more about Miami Children’s Museum"

"While not shooting from the museum itself, head under the bridge and see why this is one of my favorite spots. Sunset and night are my favorite times at this awesome spot."

"Miami’s ICA(pictured above) is housed in a sparkling 37,500-square-foot building in the city’s Design District. The opening of the ambitious venue, a striking design by the Spanish firm Aranguren & Gallegos Arquitectos, was delivered a year later than originally expected, which only added to the sense of anticipation. As well as housing a must-visit permanent collection with works by Louise Bourgeois, Tracey Emin, Dan Flavin and more, it now includes a sculpture garden."

"Art lovers won’t want to skip a visit to the Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA) in Miami. This free museum is located in the Miami Design District and is focused on fostering the exchange of art and ideas through the Miami region and beyond. With exhibitions from local, emerging, and under-recognized artists, this is the place to visit if you want to support the arts."

"The Museum of Contemporary Art in North Miami first opened to the public in 1996. The facility has 23,000 square feet of exhibition space, and houses more than 400 permanent installations from artists such as Larry Rivers, Claes Oldenburg, and Jasper Johns. With eight to ten changing exhibits annually, even more artists are represented."

"Downtown's Gelateria 4D, located at 670 Lincoln Road, is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the gelateria and café four stars out of 191 reviews for its plentiful flavors. Especially popular is the parmalat milk gelato, made with imported Italian milk."
