Best Family Restaurants in Bal Harbour

"Out on a dock beneath the shade of beach-blue umbrellas and right next door to the Swimming Hall of Fame and the city marina, you can enjoy a continuous parade of the most impressive yachts you’ve ever seen while digging in to some tasty eat-with-your-hands seafood. The menu offers a delicious fresh take on traditional beach-vacation nibbles, including conch fritters, coconut shrimp, and crab cakes, but they also have a daily special called “scoobies,” a bowl of luscious snow crab legs soaking in roasted garlic butter. This is a great place to order some drinks while watching the sunset."

"Coconuts has been dialing up the flavor on some seafood favorites for anyone who comes through the front door. Not only is it a local favorite for mouthwatering dishes such as the generously seasoned conch fritters and tasty Mahi tacos, but it has also been named the best restaurant in Fort Lauderdale, according to New York Times reader’s choice awards. Don’t take their word for it, though."

"Here, diners can indulge in specialty cocktails, shareable snacks, and made-from-scratch entreesas boats cruise by the dock. Coconuts is a popular place for outdoor dining, and with epic sunsets and uninterrupted views, it’s easy to see why."

"As cool as its Wynwood locale, Palmar offers contemporary Chinese food with unruffled style. Guests enjoy a hefty selection of wine, beer, and dishes such as duck confit dumplings and guava and cheese spring rolls underneath the red glow of modish rattan lanterns. Available for dine-in or takeout."

"The restaurant takes traditional Chinese cuisine and turns it into something that locals and critics have fallen in love with. Some even say it’s the best Chinese restaurant in Miami. For starters, their dim sum is bursting with flavor, along with other colorful dishes."

"Think back on the Miami of a year ago, when nobody was sure if our city’s meteoric ride to the top of the American food scene would survive the pandemic’s brutal wrath. Flash forward to now, and even in the height of summer, snagging a reservation at a top restaurant is a tough feat, like Art Basel just kept on going right into hurricane season. Whether or not our restaurant renaissance continues is anyone’s guess, but for now we can all revel in a year that’s seen week after week of world-class openings."

"For the perfect ending to your meal of American classics, save some room for one more dish: homemade pie à la mode. Find an always-changing rotation of freshly baked pies ($12 per slice) made by seasoned pastry chef Joshua Gripper. Flavors include salted lime, cherry apricot, banana cream, and his never-fail blueberry, served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to seal the deal."

"The sibling of Andrew Carmellini's NYC dining hotspot, this New American bistro serves down-to-earth food in a smart dining room with rustic brick touches and contrasting modern highlights."

"serves delectable mini-platters with generous portions of shwarma, shashlik, hummus and eggplant. The restaurant is nothing fancy, with meals being served on plastic plates with plastic cutlery, but the food speaks for itself. Everything is made fresh and they use a local Israeli bakery for their pitas, and their Hebrew-speaking staff add an authentic feel to the venue."

"Very good shawarma this is an easy place to miss because it is in a residential area and has a small door to the public. But it is a hidden gem!"

"Just down the street from The Christmas Palace, we spotted these jolly jellies. Regrettably, we didn’t stop for a slice of their pizza, but we definitely should have as it is rated one of the best pies in Fort Lauderdale."

"Like its name implies, this brewery pays homage to “Honest Abe.” Just look at the bar for proof—there are thousands of pennies glue to the top. When you go here, grab a seat on one of the plush couches, order some bar snacks (truffle cheddar popcorn, anyone?) and browse the beer list to choose the brew that’s best for you. There are 12 beers made on site at Lincoln’s Beard Brewing Co. and 15 total on tap, the latter of which usually contains a rotating menu of six or seven beers from other Miami breweries.7360 SW 41st Street, Miami, FL 33155."

"Head west and you’ll be rewarded with the self-proclaimed “weirdest brewery” in the city. The staff here might have an irreverent sense of humor, but the beer they produce is serious business. American IPAs, imperial stouts and barrel-aged browns are served up in an eclectic warehouse space, complete with cushy couches, barrel tables and a bar top featuring thousands of pennies—a shout-out to the brewery’s namesake—that have been painstakingly glued on by hand."

"Lincoln’s Beard Brewing Co. has an absolute ball putting on events like you could never predict. Before stopping by Lincoln’s Beard Brewing, check their site for any themed events going on. They did an emo-themed karaoke night recently."

"Located in Fort Lauderdale, 30 miles north of Miami, a trip to Riverside Market is worth every second spent in I-95 traffic. What awaits is a selection of over 650 craft beer bottles carefully displayed in self-serve coolers around the shop and 20 drafts in constant rotation. It’s a thrilling game of hops-and-seek here—you never know what owner Julian Siegel has stocked on any given day."
