Best Fast Food Restaurants in Westwood Lakes

"If La Camaronera only served their famous pan con minuta - an amazing fried snapper sandwich that’s just about perfect - we’d still tell you to come to this casual spot in Little Havana. But since they do both that and about a dozen other things with shrimp, lobster, oysters, and conch better than anywhere else in town, we feel like we should warn you that La Camaronera raises your seafood bar forever. And while we’ve loved lots of seafood in our lives, we haven’t found another fried shrimp in town that’s gotten us this excited."

"For another variation on the Cuban sandwich theme, pay a visit to La Camaronera. The Garcia family opened a fish market in Miami in the 1960s; about 10 years later they added fryers to cook and serve some of their catch on site. You could only eat standing at a counter, but a few months ago they finally installed chairs and tables."

"Founded by a family of Cuban fishermen, La Camaronera has been an off-the-beaten-path Miami staple for over 50 years. A few of the best dishes here include camarones fritos (fried shrimp) and cangrejo moro (Florida Stone Crab)."

"What started as a takeout window in South Beach became a chain taking over Florida with fresh, healthy ceviche, salads, burritos, and tacos. Most restaurants now have sit-down space, but the atmosphere is the same everywhere: Fresh seafood or free-range chicken is combined with fresh seasonal vegetables, given an international flavor and offered at reasonable prices. The signature ceviche is simple: fresh locally caught seafood tossed with fresh tomatoes, cilantro, red onions, and jalapenos, all drenched in their fresh, citrus-based sauce that comes in several versions."

"The first outpost of My Ceviche was essentially a seafood shack on South Beach with founders Sam and Roger playing the roles of chef and cashier, doling out fresh ceviche from a takeout window. Now the eatery has expanded across town to neighborhoods like Brickell and Midtown, yet it still maintains its playful, roll-with-the-punches spirit. Ceviche bowls and salads are topped with fresh seafood like charred octopus and seared ahi tuna, while the ever-popular, made-to-order poke bowl features fun flavors like wasabi sesame sauce and creamy togarashi."

"What started as a nondescript takeout shop nestled against the SoBe Hostel has since morphed into a six-location cevicheria known for its impeccable, inexpensive ceviche. Whole fish is brought straight from the Atlantic, prepped in-house and then “cooked” in lime juice. The result is some of the best ceviche in town, for a fraction of what it would cost at sit-down restaurants."

"Sergio's opened over 40 years ago as a small sandwich stand started by Cuban exiles. Today it has morphed into a mini-empire with multiple locations and a reputation for serving excellent Cuban meals from the wee hours of the morning into the late evening. Start your day with what may easily be one of the best breakfast deals in Miami - El Mezclado, a platter of two scrambled eggs with ham, served with tostada, Cuban toast and a strong Cuban coffee."

"They have every filling you can imagine, from the typical meat and chicken options to guava or spinach pastries. They also have a window so you can order to go, or sit inside for a more expansive dinner menu. Sergio’s is a South Florida staple; so much so that they have a cafe in Fort Lauderdale Airport."

"This family-run chain is another local favorite for Cuban comfort food — especially for their huge breakfast and Cuban coffee. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. 3252 SW 22nd St, Miami, FL 33145 (See On Google Maps)"

"Restaurants American Wynwood. These soft, pillowy burgers are just the thing you need to cap off a night out in Wynwood. This casual burger window serves its smash patties on a potato bun with lettuce, tomato, cheese and a special mayo."

"ShenandoahLook, if you want wood-fired, Neapolitan, topped-with-oysters-and-golden-truffle pizza, Miami’s got plenty of options. But if you want pizza that’s the stuff you remember eating immediately after your little league games and tastes like a simpler time, there is only Cassola’s. And while those slices might have seemed monstrous when you were a kid, they still look gargantuan today, and a $5 cheese slice is enough for a full meal."

"Big, saucy, greasy, and cheesy, a pizza pie any other way wouldn't be baked at Casola's. The pizza place tucked between Little Havana and Coconut Grove has fattened neighborhood rugrats and late-night bar-hoppers looking for a sobering slice for 21 years. The pizza slices are huge, New York style, and come in pairs for $2.85."

"At this local spot hungry diners can find slices of pizza as big as their head for under $5 along with inexpensive sandwiches and huge chicken wings. Available for takeout and outdoor dining. View this post on Instagram"

Try the iconic brand's eight wonderful varieties of doughnuts, including jelly-filled, powdered, chocolate, cinnamon, coconut and even the peanut cake stick."

"The national brand is offering customers a free doughnut this Friday – in fact, all week!. No purchase necessary!. Check out the locations in Miami."

"The big difference is that the Donuts are warm and melts in your mouth. The coffee is also excellent quality."

What makes the mall unique is that it is primarily an outdoor mall so on those nice and hot Miami days you can still catch some sun while doing a little bit of shopping. Merrick Park features many known high-end brands and is a great place to hang out."

"If you’re feeling ambitious on your townie cruiser, you can ride north to Bal Harbour or Haulover beaches; natives know these as water-sports havens—and for Bal Harbour’s luxury shopping. Otherwise, drop off your bike along Ocean Drive and grab a spot on the beach, Lummus Beach, which runs from around 6th to 14th streets. This is a beach for locals and tourists alike, and the spread of humanity—supermodels, families and even topless tanners—make this a go-to spot for people-watching."

"Every spring, the sprawling grounds of the Frank Gehry-designed SoundScape Park hosts the New World Symphony’s Wallcast concert series – a free 7000 sq ft projection of the live performance going on inside the New World Center concert hall, beamed against its exterior wall."
