Best Family Restaurants in Leisure City

"Restaurants Chinese Wynwood. Commanding its own lively corner on the outer edges of a tightly packed Wynwood, this petite, dimly lit parcel serves up Chinese classics alongside a respectable wine list and just the right amount of scene. Its pink facade, hanging wicker lamps and elbow room only dining room make for a fun stop off before a night out, but Palmar’s blue crab fried rice topped with bean sprouts and a sticky 63-degree egg is reason enough to put in a reservation and brave the Wynwood crowds."

"Bless Palmar for continuing to offer Miami’s best Chinese-Latin cuisine throughout the crisis. Available for pickup via Toast Tab and delivery through Uber Eats, Postmates and GrubHub, indulge in the restaurant’s latest promotion, #PalmarEnCasa, which means you’ll enjoy the same great flavors of the Wynwood restaurant straight from your own home. We’ll take orders of the shiitake edamame dumplings, blue crab fried rice and pork belly bao buns."

"Established by Chef Roberto Legrand in 1995, Spiga Ristorante Italiano is an elegant restaurant with a romantic front garden that serves Northern Italian cuisine in a tranquil setting. Reminiscent of an old Italian villa, the restaurant boasts an intimate and charming atmosphere and serves a menu of exceptional Italian fare. Renowned for serving some of the best pasta in town, Spiga hand-makes and prepares pasta daily, and signature dishes include pappardelle with a lamb ragout, tortelloni stuffed with ricotta, pears, and taleggio, spaghetti with seafood mixed seafood, and quadretti with portobello & oil truffle pasta."

"With white tablecloths, candlelight, and an inviting outdoor space, Spiga Ristorante Italiano has a romantic, special-occasion-worthy vibe. The dinner menu perfectly fits this old-..."

"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."

"This Miami institution reminds me of any good restaurant in downtown Lima, unpretentious and simple. The food here speaks for itself. But as you may not have tried it yet, let me explain."

"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."

"Sylvano's is an Italian restaurant and sports bar on Liberty Ave in Miami Beach. Owned by Sylvano Carrara, who moved Miami in 1993 and operated two other locations, Sylvano's offers a menu of classic Italian fare, including wood-fired pizzas, handmade pasta, freshly prepared salads, ocean-fresh seafood, and grass-fed meats and chicken. The vibrant sports bar has strategically placed large screen televisions that show the latest sports games and news, and the walls are adorned with photographs and pictures of spotlight athletes of the past and present."

"Contrary to what Hollywood tells you, there are a lot of people who live in South Beach and actually can't afford $100,000 cars. We refer to them as "locals," and when South Beach locals want Italian food one name always comes up: Sylvano. This little spot tucked away on Liberty Ave has a laid-back, anti-South Beach vibe to it, and the Italian-run place serves up authentic food at prices intended for people who live here year-round."

"The scene: Serving up a refreshing selection of Greek flavours on the famous Ocean Drive, Santorini by Georgios is inspired by the beautiful island of the same name. This welcomingly casual yet effortlessly stylish restaurant creates a warm and friendly dining space through a bright blue and yellow colour scheme, beach club-inspired outdoor terrace and smiling, helpful staff. Specialising in local lobster caught daily, the biggest prawns you’ve ever seen, tender lamb chops and juicy prime steaks, Santorini by Georgios offers a vast menu."

"In the midst of rusted warehouses and concrete blah, there's a pastel-and-graffiti explosion of urban art. Wynwood Walls is a collection of murals and paintings laid out over an open courtyard that invariably bowls people over with its sheer color profile and unexpected location. What’s on offer tends to change with the coming and going of major arts events such as Art Basel, but it's always interesting stuff."

"Start your Wynwood adventure at the Wynwood Walls, home to dozens of murals by the world’s top street artists. The murals change regularly, so the next time you visit Miami, many of them will be different. It’s easy to spend an hour or more wandering through the murals and the galleries connected to the Walls."

"Our last day was spent at the creative Wynwood Walls art exhibit. Beautiful mosaics are spread across a few blocks on streets and on buildings, even on the sidewalks!"

"The HistoryMiami Museum is the largest museum in Florida (and thus also Miami). Here you'll learn about the history of the city through various collections and exhibitions. Items of the collection on display here are, among several other types, visual materials, archives and manuscripts, and archaeological artifacts."

"These are just some of the artists whose work can be found in the impressive collection at the Institute of Contemporary Art–"a space committed to the advancement of 20th and 21st-century art in Miami and beyond. The ICA three-story building features numerous rotating exhibitions, complete with an outdoor sculpture garden. But what sets the ICA apart (aside from their free admission, which is huge for a Miami museum to offer) are their public programs–"which are also free to the community. From lectures to symposiums, panel discussions to film screenings, plus multiple educational youth programs, the ICA truly is a space where all artistic thought is welcomed and nurtured. Recommended for Free Things to Do because: Free museum tours are held on Sundays and are the perfect way to spend an afternoon learning about history and architecture."

"North Miami's Museum of Contemporary Art is known as the venue "where new art is discovered," leading the way for modern artists to connect with their audience.[Learn more]"

"Founded to give Broward County kids more access to art education, Young at Art (YAA) is much more than just a children's museum. Since moving into its current home — a custom-built, LEED-certified building in Davie with its own Broward County Library branch — YAA has been able to attract serious, professional artists to exhibit there by challenging them to design with kids in mind. That means, unlike other museums, the art must be touchable."

"Miracle Mile is one of the Miami area's most beautiful shopping locations. There are over 150 shops and 40 gourmet restaurants, all within a short walking distance of each other. These shops include a wide range of bridal boutiques, kitchen and appliance stores, men's apparel shops, jewelry stores, hair salons, spas, and more."

"The one-mile street has everything — bookstores to restaurants to boutiques. If you’re looking for a clean and classy backdrop with European vibes then here it is. Also, the Umbrella Sky Project is within walking distance."

"Pop into Threefold Cafe for breakfast, then spend a few moments walking off your meal in the Miracle Mile area."

"Continue south on Collins Avenue and enjoy the views of Miami Beach, eventually reaching iconic South Beach. Park and head to the sand to enjoy a few hours on the beach. If that doesn’t sound like the right fit, enjoy a walk along iconic Lincoln Road for shopping, eating, drinking and people watching."
