Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Norland

"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."

"It's a win-win for parents and children at this swanky rooftop restaurant on Lincoln Road. While you thrill to beautiful city views and a refined menu of French-Asian specialties, the kids can chow down on one of four $24 bento boxes named for the owner's and chef's children. Each box comes with a protein, two sides, and cookies."

"Head out for an al fresco dinner when you eat at Juvia, a Japanese-Peruvian fusion hot spot located on the roof of a parking garage above Lincoln Road. The fun part is when you pull into the garage and go right up the elevator to your..."

"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."

"Caution: do not enter unless ready for a filling and hearty meal. At Big Pink, you can be sure to never leave feeling hungry while having no regrets. The menu is so large you may find yourself having anxiety over what to choose, but don’t worry, from personal experience I’ve learned that no matter what you pick, you can never go wrong."

"Whether you’re a local or just a regular to the neighborhood for the beach, you’ve heard of the place. The restaurant is just a couple blocks from South Pointe Park and can be identified by the pink delivery buggy outside. The menu at this place is ridiculously diverse and delicious as hell."

"The term “comfort food” never made more sense than it does right now, when your anxiety can be easily quelled by a big, savory side of beef. Nobody does brisket better than Blue Collar, where you can still enjoy that braised beef with mashed potatoes and jus, with nothing to clean up after your food coma.Cost: $20; Orders by calling the restaurant at 305.756.0366"

"Danny Serfer’s Blue Collar takes its cues from the classic American diner. The tiny restaurant in the MiMo District offers daily specials and elevated comfort foods. Start with a gutsy New Orleans-style dish of shrimp and grits with bacon and Worcestershire-based barbecue sauce, or Chanukah latkes (served year-round)."

"Nestled between the motels along Biscayne Blvd., you’ll find Blue Collar serving comfort food with a twist. Whether you’re in the mood for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, your tastebuds will be singing by the end of any meal here. Make sure not to leave without trying their chocolate cake (trust me)."

"Located in Kimpton's Epic Hotel, this restaurant's setting affords skyline views of both Miami (to the north and west) and Biscayne Bay (to the east and south) that guests find truly breathtaking--that is, if they aren't too focused on the incredible cuisine. Executive Chef Wolfgang Birk gleans most of his seafare--items such as jumbo lump crab salad with spicy seared watermelon, heirloom tomato, avocado, mint and basil or yellowfin tuna with mixed grains, smoked black beans, shrimp guacamole and ginger juice--either locally or from the region of the ocean for which the restaurant is named, Area 31, one of the only self-sustaining spots that is said to be left in the ocean. Meat and pasta dishes are just as delicious and contain sustainable items from nearby farms and other trusted sources."

"Located on the top floor of the EPIC Hotel, trendy Area 31 has the reputation of the best view in town as well as exceptionally good food and cocktails. Sunset over the Biscayne Bay and the city skyline from the restaurant’s poolside terrace is absolutely breathtaking, but Executive Chef Wolfgang Birk manages to draw the attention of his guests with his frequently changing menu that is based on sustainable ingredients and focuses on local seafood with a Spanish twist. The menu is extensive but the chef’s fresh ceviche, crudos and tartares are legendary."

"This could be Miami’s best pizza, according to locals who show up in droves. La Pizza piles their pies high with meats and veggies. Their crispy crust holds up to whatever your desires heap on it."

"The setting for Morgans Restaurant, an old house with a covered porch where guests can sit and chat as they enjoy their food and coffee, lends a decidedly homey feel to this restaurant, which also serves homestyle comfort classics to add to the overall ambience. At Morgans, breakfast and brunch options include homemade sticky buns, brioche French toast, house-cured salmon plates, omelets, chocolate-dipped waffles, English breakfast, and French toast stuffed with mascarpone and raspberries. They also serve delicious coffee, fruit and vegetable juices, fresh smoothies, and pitchers of Bellini, sangria, mimosa, or Kir Royale."

"For over a decade, Morgans has developed a loyal local following driven mostly by word-of-mouth, and it's not hard to see why; it's a spot that offers a staggering assortment of brunch goodies (think everything from Boursin egg sandwiches, to mascarpone-and-raspberry-stuffed French toast) in a seriously cute 1930's house that the owners have outfitted with mod furnishings, and polished concrete floors. Its also got a huge wrap-around porch with extra seating and communal tables that practically begs for a brunch spread. Courtesy Mandarin Oriental, Miami"

"I once waited an hour in line to try Morgan’s weekend brunch and it is one of the best decisions I have ever made. French toast doused in cinnamon butter and maple syrup, waffle and fried chicken sandwiches, and not to mention the melt-in-your mouth cookies will have you begging to come back."

"True to its name, Peter Pan Diner is magical for its delicious food and welcoming atmosphere. As one of the most popular restaurants in Ft. Lauderdale, the diner offers a wide selection of favorites that include the Gyro Omelet and Feta Cheeseburger."

"Wilton Manors, 1216 E Oakland Park Blvd Oakland Park 96% Love it"

They offer Bottomless Brunch every Saturday and Sunday from 11am – 3pm with $25 unlimited Mimosas, Bloody Marys, and Funky Buddha Floridian beer.

"Tap 42 has interesting cocktails, wine and beer on the drink menu. The ambience is trendy yet casual, and the food is traditional bar fare, and it is delicious!. This is a good place to check in to any time, whether for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner."

"Description: The result of collaboration between MTT and Pritzker Prize-winning architect Frank Gehry, the New World Center is an architectural gem adjacent to Miami Beach SoundScape park in the heart of South Beach. The New World Center features multiple flexible spaces, cutting edge media equipment, six stories of natural light and views of the iconic Miami Beach Art Deco skyline all perfectly situated between dramatic ocean and bay vistas."

"Experience Miami’s world-class New World Symphony at the stunning New World Center performance hall, which was designed by Frank Gehry. You may be able to view a free Wallcast concert or a movie outside in the adjacent SoundScape Park, depending on the symphony’s schedule."

"The shining beacon of historic buildings of Miami is located right in the middle of Downtown. The recently restored 1926 silent movie palace, complete with baroque balconies and red velvet curtains, exudes charisma. The Olympia Theater hosts film screenings, concerts, art exhibits, and other events under a simulated night sky ceiling graced by Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Luciano Pavarotti, and many others."

"Situated in the center of downtown Miami, Olympia has a 1920s vibe. The building makes for some great images. Tell your photography assistant to take the picture from across the street."

"Shark Valley Tram Tours offers two-hour guided tours of the paved loop trail that runs 15 miles through the Everglades from the Shark Valley Visitors Center. This is a great way to spot some wildlife and get a high-level perspective of the park from the Observation Tower at the loop's most distant point. If you're planning on visiting during the park's busy season (December through April), be sure that you call ahead for a reservation."

"The two-hour tram tour is the best way to tour through the area. A naturalist is aboard the tram who educates about the ecosystem of the wetland, the animals found in the region and the diverse plants present. The tram takes along the Tram Road Trail."
