Best Dessert in Shelborne Resort

"Using all-natural ingredients, this family-run shop offers homemade Cuban ice cream, with flavors such as Café con Leche (Cuban coffee and oreo), Willy Cherrino (double cherry), and its signature Abuela Maria®, a Cuban classic consisting of red guava, cream cheese and sweet galletas. The shop, located in Little Havana, prides itself on creating new flavors daily, and when possible, using locally sourced fruits and vegetables from south Florida farmers. In 2013, Azucar Ice Cream was voted the Best Ice Cream by the Miami Times Herald."

"From Italian gelato to Argentine helado to Coney Island frozen custard, warm-weather destinations inspire great takes on ice cream. And Miami is no different with its sabor latino, ideally sampled at Azucar Ice Cream Company. The shop specializes in tropical flavors, including sweet plantain, mantecado (Cuban vanilla), coconut flan, guava, avocado and the signature Abuela Maria, vanilla swirled with ruby-red guava, cream cheese and chopped Maria cookies."

"When you’re strolling Calle Ocho beneath the sweltering sun, nothing cools off your afternoon like a frosty treat. Pop into Azucar, where you’ll find flavors that could only be dreamed up in Miami. Making ice cream is a tradition in owner Suzy Battle’s family."

"Phenomenal vegan food in a palm-filled courtyard Even if you’re one who finds the idea of plant-based meat to be sacrilege, well, what’s more romantic than testing your boundaries together?. Plant makes organic, vegan cuisine that even a carnivore will love, so grab a seat out in the palm-filled courtyard and broaden your horizons with ginger-carrot noodles, celery-root lasagna with walnut Bolognese, and almond falafel. The purple lighting and light food make dinner here feel like the start of a big night."

"This is a plant based restaurant is nestled in the Sacred Space Miami. They serve locally sourced, organic dishes that are as clean and modern as the space. All dishes are vegan, but they also feature raw vegan dishes (see our guide to types of vegan eating)."

"Restaurants Bakeries Design District. Miami’s late-night purveyor of gooey, made-to-order, donut-sized cookies is holding strong as one of the city’s best dessert delivery. It used to be that only FIU college students and people living nearby had access to these dank treats but thanks to a second store in the Miami Design District, nearly everyone can get their hands on these."

"We’re never one to turn down the fun flavor creations like Cinnamon Toast Crunch, birthday cake or pumpkin spice on Night Owl’s ever-changing menu. But the Ave Maria has our heart, made with guava, Maria cookies (crunchy tea biscuits), white chocolate chips and a cream cheese frosting drizzle. Order one of these delicious bites for home delivery ASAP."

"If you want a cookie as big as a frisbee, check out the menu at Night Owl Cookies. They’ve got two locations in the Design District and near FIU. The menu includes a bunch of pretty crazy-looking cookies that would work wonderfully during a movie night or to fling across the room at your disrespectful roommate."

"Located next door to Casablanca and also overlooking the Miami River, this longtime family-run business boasts its own fleet of fishing boats, so you know the seafood is always fresh. Garcia’s sports a more casual vibe than its neighbor. It’s a lively place where families and friends gather on the laid-back patio to share plates of seafood with Cuban-influenced side dishes of rice, beans and plantains."

"According to the Miami New Times, a great place to visit is Garcia’s Seafood Grille & Fish Market. This establishment is part market and part seafood restaurant, and it is located in Miami-Dade County. It has been open since the 1960s, and it has become known for its variety of seafood sandwiches and seafood salads."

"One part fish market, one part restaurant, the Garcia name has been synonymous with fresh seafood for more than 50 years. It's definitely a local landmark, so if you don’t have a permanent Magic City address, expect to be in the minority—but don’t feel awkward about it. This is one place Miamians are happy to share."

"If you’re unafraid of the inevitable sugar high, Sugar Factory could be one of the most fun spots to hit with the whole family. Don’t be fooled by the name, there’s more than just sweets to be found here. This shop and restaurant located in South Beach’s Hotel Victor has a huge menu packed with pancakes, waffles, French toast, crepes, sandwiches, pizza, milkshakes, sundaes, and more."

"On Ocean Drive, the sweets-centric spot Sugar Factory serves a signature devil's food cake that's sinfully delicious. The cake is fluffy, flavorful, and layered with a sweet and bitter blend of dark and milk chocolate mousse, dressed in bittersweet chocolate fudge sauce, and adorned with delicate chocolate pearls. Devour a large slice for $16, or snag a whole cake for $40."

"4 out of 5 stars Restaurants South Beach. Willy Wonka has nothing on this South Beach sugar emporium. Up front, the bulk bins overflowing with sweets and adorable rubber duckies are sure to lure little ones in, but it’s the brasserie in the back that cinches the deal."

"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."

"Cheesecake Factory serves brunch favorites like Fried Chicken Eggs Benedict, Bruleed French Toast & More. The Saturday and Sunday brunch menu is available from 10am to 2pm. Coral Gables Love reader Shayla says, “Eggs Benedict and the monte cristo breakfast sandwich!"

"Next up is North Shore's Café Prima Pasta, situated at 414 71st St. With 4.5 stars out of 659 reviews on Yelp, the wine bar and Italian spot, serving desserts and more, has proven to be a local favorite. Yelpers rave about this spot's old-school Italian food and charm. Try an appetizer, like the grilled octopus with potatoes."

"Next up is North Shore's Café Prima Pasta, situated at 414 71st St. With 4.5 stars out of 673 reviews on Yelp, the wine bar and Italian spot, serving desserts and more, has proven to be a local favorite."

"Café Prima Pasta is the ideal location for those looking to enjoy home-style, Italian cuisine in a comfortable, yet refined atmosphere."

"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."

"Situated on a serene rooftop terrace surrounded by natural foliage, Mila Miami is a restaurant, lounge, and mixology bar in Miami Beach. Combining elegant dining with glamorous nightlife and serving a mix of Mediterranean and Asian cuisine ('MeditterrAsian'), this high-end restaurant will give you and your date a night to remember."

"This self described “MediterrAsian” eatery is known just as much for its show-stopping scenery as it is for its cuisine. Grab a drink on its expansive rooftop patio and soak in the gorgeous views and the gorgeous people. View this post on Instagram"

"The gist: The grunge era is alive and well at this Seattle-style yakitori shop, where grilled meats and ramen combine with a cleaned up ‘90s-era setting for the best casual Asian restaurant in Miami.The food: Buya’s menu takes big inspiration from drizzly-day northwest yakitoris, where the modernized take on authentic Japanese dishes are almost guaranteed to make you over order. Start with the tempura beech mushroom, a deep-fried fungus that’s like a bloomin’ onion minus the bad breath. Move on to the grilled wagyu with shiso chimichurri or the pork belly with fuji apple glaze."

"For casual bites and drinks, look no further than Buya Izakaya + Yakitori. Those not familiar with the izakaya concept should know that these Japanese bars are essentially informal hangouts. Don’t let the laid-back vibes fool you, though: You’re in for some seriously tasty food."

"Coconut GroveThere’s nothing quite like delving into a spicy, steaming plate of chicken vindaloo in a mirrored space that could well have been the inspiration for the Babylon Club. But would you expect any less out of Miami’s most vaunted Indian restaurant, who moved into this massive Mayfair space after it outgrew its old digs on Commodore Plaza. Bombay Darbar plays the Indian classics better than anyone in Miami, and though it’s not as cutting edge as some of our more-celebrated Indian eateries it still packs ’em in night after night.How to book: Call 305-444-7272 to reserve."

"What began as a mom-and-pop 30-seater has grown into an Indian-food mainstay with two locations (Coconut Grove and Fort Lauderdale). Diners crunch on crisp papadum wafers while watching Bollywood movies on a large screen and perusing the menu. That list is lengthy, but at its heart are the tikkas, tandooris, and vindaloos that fans of Indian food crave."

"Don’t let the name fool you; this isn’t a supermarket or your typical neighborhood eatery. If you’re looking for a traditional restaurant setting, this isn’t the place for you, but if you want some damn good fried chicken, this is one of the best places to eat in Miami’s Little Haiti. Upon approach, you’ll probably be a little skittish of the surroundings, but give it a chance and you’ll be happy you did."

"If you are really looking to treat yourself, head to Chez Bon Bon after dinner. Order an espresso or special drink like The Mochaâ€"made with espresso, steamed milk, and ghiradelli chocolate. This patisserie makes everything from scratch. From the hand-rolled chocolate croissants to cakes, macaroons, marshmallows, and 28 flavors of gelato."

"Restaurants Miami Beach. Find this upscale patisserie in the lobby of the Fontainebleau resort. Whether you’re on vacation or just pretending, you can indulge in gourmet chocolates, specialty cakes and pastries almost too pretty to eat."

"Restaurants Ice cream parlors Design District. Pastry chef Soraya Caraccioli-Kilgore’s playful dessert spot sells vibrant unicorn cakes, rich chocolate bark and soft-serve in unexpected flavors. Her ice cream, in varieties such as matcha and berry rhubarb, is already pretty special yet she always finds a way to kick it up a notch with add-ons like edible glitter, gold leaf, gold dust, cotton candy and fancy sprinkles—and we’re all the more grateful for it."

"Soraya Kilgore — best known as the pastry chef at restaurants like Brava and Alter — is the woman behind this palace of sweets in Miami's Design District. MadLab Creamery isn't just about the ice cream, however. This spot also entices young and old to create their own sweet-treat work of art via more than 30 toppings, including edible glitter, tufts of pink cotton candy, golden-sheet sprinkles, even a macaroon or two."
