Best Dinner Places to Eat in Star Island

"Listen, stunning views don’t alway equal romance, but at Juvia they sure do. Head to the top of the 1111 building to enjoy an evening of art deco design and a lush green plant wall that cascades down the sides of this restaurant’s impressive terrace. Oh, and did we mention the sweeping views of Miami Beach?"

"Restaurants South Beach. No matter the time of year, sunset dinners at Juvia are marked by candy-colored skies. Consider it a free show or part of the experience when you dine at the Lincoln Road restaurant."

"Mandolin is going to make an appearance in any conversation you have about where to eat in Miami. It’s like Stan Lee in Marvel superhero movies, and its cameo is inevitable, expected, and somehow always feels appropriate. Everyone eats here because it’s one of the prettiest outdoor restaurants in the city."

"A Turkish-Greek couple opened Mandolin Aegean Bistro near the Design District, bringing the colors and flavors of the Greek islands to Miami, from the blue-and-white decor to the grilled halloumi and manti dumplings."

"This buzzy Toronto-import — brought to Miami by none other than mega-club mogul, David Grutman — serves up dishes like coconut ceviche, Korean fried lettuce wraps, and truffle and cashew mozzarella pizza, while the sushi bar is serving up a variety of hand rolls, wraps, sushi and nigiri — all sans meat or fish. In addition, cold-press cocktails, juices and shots are also on hand to wash back the cuisine. View this post on Instagram"

"Across the causeway, Dave Grutman’s first foray into vegan dining stands in stark contrast to the vibe at his other property, legendary Miami Beach nightclub LIV. But no matter, the 100 percent plant-based menu at Planta delivers. Pizzas, burgers and dumplings get the vegan treatment along with a full sushi bar rolling up maki and nigiri stuffed with watermelon, mushrooms and carrots to mirror the taste and texture of fish."

"From a mouth-watering Planta burger ($19.95) to steamed dumplings ($11.75), the South Beach vegan hot spot is satisfying those quarantine cravings. Open for delivery or pickup from Tuesday through Saturday from 3 to 9 p.m. and available on Postmates, Uber Eats and Door Dash."

"If you’re looking for a nice dinner spot in South of Fifth - maybe to celebrate a special occasion or just the fact that you made it across the MacArthur in less than five minutes - Stubborn Seed is the best place to go. It’s a small spot that feels like an old-school cocktail lounge that ran into a steel mill, with lots of dark wood and metal pipes lining the leather booths. The reason you come here, though, is for the excellent food, which changes up regularly, but always includes lots of fresh seafood."

"It’s actually Top Chef winner Jeremy Ford’s South Beach restaurant. While his savory food is delicious, what we really can’t get enough of is pastry chef Dallas Wynne’s snickerdoodles. They’re served warm and oozing with a rich chocolate filling."

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

"For those looking to enjoy the finer things in life, Leku is a great option. Located at the Rubell Museum, Allapattah, Leku brings Spain's charming Basque region to Miami. Serving a range of pintxos (Basque tapas) and traditional Basque cuisine, the team at Leku adheres to the Basque principles of using local, seasonal ingredients and simplistic cooking methods."

"Located within the contemporary Rubell Museum, Leku is a modern Basque restaurant and the servers will go into such detail about the region and its cuisine you get the impression they commute in every day. The menu is a whirlwind tour of Spain. The Iberico 5 Jotas is a decadent tartare dish made out of the highest quality Iberico ham."

"Leku is the new Spanish restaurant in town, inside the Rubell museum, now you can enjoy contemporary art like Yayoi Kusama, Keith Haring, Takashi Murakami, and eat spectacular Spanish food by Michelin-star chef Mikel Goikolea - all in a relaxed environment.".

"The gist: A Nikkei hit from London lands in South Beach, where you can feast on Peruvian classics in a retractable-roof space that feels a little like eating in a cenote. The food: No matter the weather, the soft breeze blowing through the open roof makes the Nikkei nibblers like chilled branzino ceviche and chu-toro tiradito taste especially refreshing. Currently, Chotto is plating its sushi and sashimi with house-made sauces."

"If you’re looking for some of the best sushi in Miami, head to Chotto Matte for an experience you will revel in. They offer just the right mix of a contemporary urban spectacle and..."

"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."

"It’s business as usual at both locations with the entire menu available. Keeping it trendy, Night Owl will also feature specials like cookies inspired by Tiger King along with a Wake ‘n Bacon cookie, a chocolate chip cookie topped with creamy dulce de leche and dipped in candied bacon.
