Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Park View Island

"If you time your arrival right, you can catch the sunset through floor-to-ceiling windows or in the rooftop dining room complete with vertical gardens. With panoramic views of South Beach and beyond, this penthouse-level hot spot is a great place to impress your date. The menu isn’t too shabby either, offering an eclectic mix of contemporary takes on Japanese, French, and Peruvian cuisine."

"You’ve surely dined at Juvia in the evening, but have you visited this rooftop restaurant for brunch?. Beyond the unbelievable city views, Juvia serves a pretty affordable bottomless brunch (by Miami Beach standards, at least). Enjoy two hours of all-you-can-drink mimosas, tequila margaritas or bellinis for $30."

"Restaurants South Beach. This popular Lincoln Road spot offers sweeping views of South Beach. Sadly, the views aren’t the only thing that’s sky-high—just wait for the bill."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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"

"Serving up generous portions of gourmet American comfort food, this neighbourhood joint has a canteen-like feel, but the devastatingly delicious menu options and excellent craft beer selection more than make up for it."

"Perched 16 floors high inside the EPIC Hotel in Downtown Miami, this longtime restaurant still has some of the best views of Miami's Downtown skyline in the city. Whether going for its popular happy hour or for a seafood feast, grab a seat on its outdoor patio and soak up the views."

"Swine Southern Table & Bar is a good place to meet up with friends, sip some whiskey, and enjoy classic Southern cooking. The brunch includes meals like BLT Benedict, shrimp & grits, and pulled pork n’ eggs. If you’re not a huge fan of meat, they also offer meat-free options such as their morning quiche, pancakes and waffles."

"Not for nothing is GreenStreet Café known as one of the best breakfast places in Miami. Nestled in the heart of Coconut Grove, GreenStreet Café offers outdoor seating and fantastic menu items that are sure to satisfy any taste. Their rotating selection of specialty pancakes, such as cinnamon roll pancakes, are always a hit."

"I would skip class my senior year of HS (sorry, Mom), so I could snag brunch at GreenStreet Cafe. It’s right in the heart of Coconut Grove and it has one of the best brunches ever. My personal favorite, are the cinnamon roll pancakes."

"The platters are super filling and generous, so go there with plenty of room in your stomach. There are sit-down dining and outdoor seating. They offer delivery and takeout too."

"Along with a number of iconic Miami dishes, the frita arrived in Magic City by way of refugees fleeing the Cuban revolution in the 1950’s. A Cuban riff on the classic hamburger, traditional fritas feature a beef patty accentuated with cumin, paprika and pepper, crowned with papas fritas (fried matchstick potatoes), nestled between slices of featherlight and crisp Cuban bread. El Rey de las Fritas has been hailed as one of the city’s best frita purveyors since the original outpost debuted in 1976."

"Get the famous Cuban burger called the “frita," which only costs $3.25. Wash it back with a cold glass of Mamay during a hot Miami day. View this post on Instagram. A post shared by Emma Galeano (@emm_abear) on Jan 22, 2015 at 3:46pm PST"

"Burgers , Cuban"

"For those of you who want a little more variety (or for those that don't like shopping), you can stop at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, where there is something for everyone. Guests have the option to enjoy the casino, horse racing, live entertainment and more."

"Crandon Park Beach boasts some of the clearest waters Miami has to offer, thanks in part to a strict ban on floatation devices and its offshore sandbar — itself an idyllic place to bask like the Floridian lizard you are at heart. Not to worry though, there’s plenty else to keep the whole family entertained, including unique eco-adventure experiences, picnic and cookout areas, and concession stands. If the sun becomes too much, head to the Family Amusement Center open on weekends and holidays only to check out its restored carousel, beachfront playground, and splash fountain."

"Just a short drive to northern Key Biscayne, Crandon Park is an island park equipped with volleyball nets, cabanas for rent and pristine turquoise waters that beckon for a dip. Aside from the stunning beaches and pearly white sands, the park is also home to mangroves, dunes and a nature center that houses exotic fish and other wildlife. Just five minutes away from Crandon Park is Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park which is home to the Cape Florida Light – the oldest standing structure in Greater Miami."

"An abandoned zoo on a subtropical island, ever since Dade County's main zoological park decamped to way down south, the Crandon Park Gardens, or just Crandon Gardens (both derivations are used) has sat and grown into a hidden, mysterious botanical garden with otherworldly follies (the former animal enclosures) scattered here and there."

"Restaurants Chinese Midtown. Chef and restaurant owner Richard Hales serves modern, Chinese Sichuan cuisine at this casual but inviting restaurant in Midtown. He sources ingredients locally and isn’t afraid to push the envelope when it comes to proteins, like the gong bao rabbit, and preparations, including handmaking the noodles you’ll inevitably find yourself slurping."

"Blackbrick in Midtown serves the Chinese food you've been craving. Expect classics such as salt-and-pepper shrimp, Sichuan vegetables with hot-oil fried rice, and steamed red snapper with soy, ginger, and scallions. Chef Richard Hales, who also owns Sakaya Kitchen and Bird & Bone, is behind the menu that's inspired by his travels throughout China."

"A post shared by Blackbrick (@midtownchinese) on Feb 18, 2020 at 9:57am PST. Another one of the talked-about Chinese restaurants in the city by locals and critics alike is Blackbrick. Also known as Midtown Chinese Blackbrick, the restaurant boasts its award as one of the best Chinese restaurants in Miami."

"A relative newcomer on Miami’s art scene, The Bonnier Gallery is focused on presenting works by minimalist, blue-chip artists such as Carl Andre, Sol LeWitt and Donald Judd. Husband-and-wife duo Grant and Christina Bonnier set up their Allapattah gallery with direct access to work by these post-war masters: Grant’s father, a New York dealer, represented many of these icons during their lifetimes. The gallery hosts a range of regular exhibitions, but if you’re more interested in the Andy Warhols, Dan Flavins or Christos they have available, be sure to make an appointment."

"A former Drug Enforcement Agency warehouse, the Rubell Family Collection located in Wynwood proves to be anything but conventional. Spanning 40,000-square-feet, the museum tailors the whole first floor as the “New Shamans” exhibit, which features the work of artists who hail from South America. While the downstairs transports you into an enriching world that addresses environmental, social and political concerns, the museum’s “High Anxiety: New Acquisitions” is more therapeutic: the exhibit uses art to channel and understand everyday nerves and stresses."

"WynwoodThe Rubell family, whose name has been synonymous with art and philanthropy in Miami for decades, has renovated a 100,000-square-foot industrial space west of Wynwood to showcase its massive collection. The family prides itself on finding great artists early in their careers, and visiting the museum you’ll find stuff from Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Jeff Koons, Rashid Johnson, and others from long before the world knew their names. The private collection is beyond impressive, with 7,200 works from more than 1,000 artists."

"Fans of edgy art will appreciate the Rubell Family Collection. Mera and Don Rubell have accumulated work by artists from the 1970s to…"
