The Best Places to Eat in Miami
"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."
"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."
"Spiga is located on Collins avenue in Miami Beach with a unique romantic atmosphere of an old Italian villa. All pastas are made in house and menu items are all made using the freshest ingredients for the last 25 years!. The dinner menu focuses around old Italian dishes like Calamari, Mozzerella alla Caprese, Zuppa di Cozzee and Vongole with mussels and clams in a white sauce."
">> WHERE TO EAT IN MIAMI BEACH - our favorites discoveries Spiga : good Italian pasta + great people watching spot."
"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."
"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."

"Lauderdale location in mid-March and is slated to open a South Beach location later this year. Located at the W Hotel, Sobe Vegan is open for delivery and curbside pickup with burgers (starting at $9.95), salads, hearty bowls (starting at $9.99), milkshakes, and cheese fries. Available for takeout or order via UberEats, Postmates and GrubHub."
"Martha Stewart stamps this as "the most beautiful spa in America," so if you're gonna book a treatment at Lapis Spa, then you might as well go big and reserve the Bleau private spa suite. There are two treatment beds, a jetted tub and a private bathroom and shower that accompany your oceanside view. Oh, and once you're done with your Aroma Detox therapy, you can bequest a personal bath butler to cater to your bubbling needs."

As one of Miami Beach’s most extensive facilities, Lapis Spa at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach is where you go to while away the day. There are 30 treatment rooms, including two oceanfront couple’s massage suites (with a shower and soaking tub for two) and two spa suites (each with a Vichy shower, tub, shower, and relaxation area)."
"At this artisanal donut shop tucked away in a shopping center in South Miami and at The Falls in Pinecrest, the donuts are made fresh each day from decades of family recipes. Like its name, there is a signature Honeybee Doughnut, a raised doughnut stuffed with fresh whip cream and local honey, but the menu is vast when it comes to everyday donuts and specialty flavors. Pretend like it’s your birthday and order the festive Happy Birthday donut or go for the dulce de leche, guava with cream cheese, s’mores topped with roasted marshmallows, or the epic Oreo doughnut with buttercream."
"This doughnut shop just made its way to a second location at The Falls, while it’s original South Miami location undergoes a renovation. Doughnut lovers who visit Honeybee will find more than a dozen daily doughnut flavors including the signature Honeybee doughnut, a raised doughnut filled with fresh whipped cream and local honey.

"This plant-based ice cream specialty shop offers pints of vegan ice cream ($15) for curbside pick up from 2 p.m."
"Though the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAAM) has long been one of the city’s most popular modern art museums, it’s become an even bigger player on the Miami art scene since its relocation to the Biscayne Bayfront in 2013. As if the Herzog & de Meuron-designed building weren’t impressive enough, inside the massive 200,000-square-foot museum is everything from kinetic sculptures to replica boats and an outdoor sculpture garden that has become a magnet for Instagrammers ($16/adult). The museum is now close during the pandemic, but you are invited to do a great virtual tour at the official website."
"Showcasing the best contemporary art of the 20th and 21st centuries while also reflecting the multitude of nationalities that call Miami home – that’s the aim of the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM). The Pérez Art Museum is an absolute staple in modern art in the US alone, providing a deeply visceral experience through sight, sound and touch. Since 2016, it’s estimated that over 2,000 works live in the PAMM’s permanent collection."
"Show off your artsy side by posing with one of the awesome art installations inside the Pérez Art Museum or capture its hanging garden and lush garden for some urban-tropical vibes."
"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."
"It was the talk of the town during Art Basel 2020, and not without reason. The Rubells' new museum in Allapattah is by far the best permanent collection of art in South Florida, showcasing the family's vast collection of contemporary art from the '60s onward. You'll find work by Jeff Koons, Sterling Ruby, and Kehinde Wiley and a shrine-like gallery for Keith Haring."
"The creation of Don and Mera Rubell led to the formation of the enchanting private art museum, the Rubell Museum. For more than half a decade, the Rubells team has collected more than 7,200 works by 1000 and more artists. The contemporary art displayed in the 56,000 square feet galleries is a mosaic of talent, aestheticism, and a warehouse of art and culture."
