"The customers here are definitely seafood fans, with those who can tell a west coast oyster from a PEI on site nosing up to the counter, parsing their options with the nerdy enthusiasm of stamp collectors or bird spotters. But beyond the raw bar, the seafood selection is an exercise in aquatic seduction. The Clams Casino appetizer with bacon and white wine whetting appetites along with seared scallops with andouille and lobster deviled eggs are almost too much."
"Cooking in a state surrounded on three sides by water, Florida chefs typically know a thing or two about seafood. Opened in mid-2014 by Miami natives, Edgewater restaurant Mignonette makes a splash with its modern take on the traditional oyster bar. With an old-Florida-meets-New-Orleans vibe, the space features tufted camel-colored banquettes, a long marble bar and oversize arched windows with palm views."
"We started off with dining at Steak 954, located at the W Hotel where I was staying. I must say that I loved the place, as from the moment you enter the restaurant you can get impressed by huge tanks filled with jellyfish. As the name indicates the restaurant is a steakhouse, but I must say that I went for the lobster with truffle mac&cheese instead and didn’t regret it."

"This classic steakhouse perched in the South of Fifth neighborhood is just as popular for its views as it is for its meat selection. Grab a drink on the overlook deck and soak up the waterfront views while dining on your meal."

"James Beard Foundation Award-winner Michael Schwartz is one of Miami’s most-coveted chefs. Whatever he touches turns delicious, including pizza at Harry’s Pizzeria, farm-to-table gastropub fare on a cruise ship, sushi, breakfast food and plenty of other concepts, including his beloved namesake, Michael’s Genuine. Set within the SLS Brickell, Schwartz’s Fi’lia specializes in vivacious Italian, including pies, house-made pastas, comforting mains (think: chicken parm and wood-grilled leg of lamb) as well as a tableside Caesar for which servers grill fresh bread for croutons."
"Many tourists mark this restaurant as the best Italian restaurant in Miami, and for good reason. Fi’lia invites its visitors to taste authentic Italian pizza from a wood-fired oven or pamper themselves with stracciatella with truffle honey. You will plunge into a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere, and the friendly staff will help you choose a dish based on your preferences."
"Italians are known for their stellar wood-fired pizzas, and Fi’lia is no exception. Starters like the stracciatella with truffle honey or the meatballs with whipped ricotta are great to open the appetite. Pies like spicy soppressatta or cauliflower and fontina cheese are hits, or opt for spaghetti carbonara or the wood-grilled sirloin skirt steak."
"Piazza Italia offers mouth-watering, authentic Italian cuisine, that takes your taste buds on the true tour of Italy. Address:904 East Las Olas Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33301"

"The Capital Grille is one of the most elegant restaurants in Fort Lauderdale, serving extraordinary classic American fare made from exceptional ingredients, resulting artfully prepared cuisine. You can’t go wrong with amazing dishes like the Kona Crusted Wagyu Burger with Shalot Mayo, Seared Tenderloin with Butter Poached Lobster Tail, or the Double-Cut Lamb Rib Chops. Indulge in their impressive and extensive wine list or choose something from the full bar."
"From the moment you step inside, the experience is one of comfortable elegance. Take your pick among the more than 350 world-class wines awaiting you at The Capital Grille, hailing from nearly every wine-growing region on Earth. The restaurant's acclaimed dry aged steaks and fresh seafood deserve nothing less than an award-winning wine list."

"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)."
"What started as a small food market and winery in 1930's Cuba where locals met to visit and catch up on local news, is now an unassuming but delicious restaurant is an area favorite for authentic Cuban cuisine lovers. All the traditional dishes are available, from ropa vieja to paella, and you'll also find great black beans and rice and terrific medianoches (smaller versions of the ham-and-roast pork Cuban sandwich and originally intended as a midnight snack). For true comfort food appeal, sample the tender pot roast and a serving of plantains."
"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."
