Best Nightlife in Key Biscayne

"Miami Beach's Juvia is a rooftop sparkler flaunting French, Japanese, and Peruvian inspired cuisine. Situated atop Lincoln Road's illustrious 1111 Garage, this James Beard Award winner for Outstanding Restaurant Design offers wondrous, unobstructed views of Miami Beach and Downtown Miami. Juvia's stylish, urban-meets-Eden polishings include a lavender and white color palette and Wonderland-worthy vertical garden."

"A contemporary restaurant buzzing atop the 1111 Lincoln Road mixed-use building and parking garage, Juvia is a welcome breather from one of Miami’s most popular tourist destinations. Diners take a separate elevator up to a terrace for French, Japanese, and Peruvian plates, along with specialty cocktails and South Beach sights."

"Set atop the chains of Lincoln Road, Juvia is located in penthouse of the 1111 Lincoln Road parking garage, offering picturesque views of South Beach from every angle from its outdoor terrace."

"Located on the top floor of the EPIC Hotel, trendy Area 31 has the reputation of the best view in town as well as exceptionally good food and cocktails. Sunset over the Biscayne Bay and the city skyline from the restaurant’s poolside terrace is absolutely breathtaking, but Executive Chef Wolfgang Birk manages to draw the attention of his guests with his frequently changing menu that is based on sustainable ingredients and focuses on local seafood with a Spanish twist. The menu is extensive but the chef’s fresh ceviche, crudos and tartares are legendary."

"Area 31 is a local favorite located on the 16th floor of the EPIC hotel. The restaurant itself is outdoors, and the elevation gives visitors breathtaking views of the city and ocean. The elegant menu is seafood based, serving only the freshest fish and more – check out the raw bar, ceviche dishes, and shrimp cocktails."

"This one is precisely not on that top because there are only 16 floors, but the hotel’s downtown view is fantastic. Moreover, the view is hard to get anywhere else. Therefore, many young professionals and even business people come here to enjoy their happy hours."

"Bars Cocktail bars Brickell. This Brickell hotspot can have a line out the door on weekend nights and Friday happy hour. Brave that line and you’ll be rewarded with 360-views of the city (40 floors up!), pricey (but tasty) cocktails and a swank crowd."

"One of the most iconic rooftop bars in Miami hosting a perfect blend of visitors and locals alike. The chic rooftop and garden sits on the 40th floor of the EAST Miami hotel. Sugar Miami serves delicious Asian-inspired cocktails and tapas, and it’s the go-to spot to watch the sunset in Brickell."

"Nestled in a secret rooftop garden, Sugar is one of Miami’s hidden gems and the perfect setting for a romantic date. Tuck into Asian-inspired tapas and sip seasonal cocktails while watching the sun set across Miami – one of the city’s bucket-list attractions!"

"Hailed as the world's largest candy emporium, Dylan's Candy Baron South Beach's Lincoln Road is the creation of Ralph Lauren's daughter, Dylan. The retail outpost, fashioned after the New York City flagship store, boasts a selection of more than 7,000 candies, a cafe, full-service bar and personal candy shoppers. Stop in to gobble up delicious candy classics like jelly beans, gummy bears, cotton candy and poprocks."

"Although fellow New Yorkers are familiar with this legendary candy shop, Floridians took their own spin on Dylan's Candy Bar. Located on Lincoln Road, the vibe of Miami creates a colorful atmosphere that attracts everyone who passes by. With candy coated everything (seriously though, they have Kit-Kat-covered mugs), this hot spot is one to see."

"Perfectly positioned at Sunset Harbour, Barceloneta serves an array of Spanish Mediterranean tapas, seafood, arroz, and unique gin cocktails. Barceloneta, which is named after a small Puerto Rican town, has a beautiful outdoor terrace area, surrounded by greenery, evocative of an outdoor Spanish tapas bar."

"If they're eating at Atlas Meat Free Deli, they're chowing down on an impossibly meaty menu. This Little River food truck and soon-to-be brick-and-mortar deli is "vegan food for carnivores," in the words of owner Ryan Bauhaus. The menu is stacked with towering sandwiches and sizable specials."

"Picture yourself in Wynwood, strolling the streets in apropos hipster gear, perusing the newest murals, and sharing supercute snaps of yourself with your fave artwork. As usual, the humidity is killer, so you're dying of thirst and need some nourishment. Enter Jucy Lu, a charming spot in the back of Wynwood Block whose colorful edibles are ideal subjects for your carefully curated social media feed."

"Seafood is another thing you will find at many Miami restaurants, but it doesn’t have to be expensive. My Ceviche is our favorite hidden gem we found on our last trip. This counter service eatery offers ceviche and poke bowl for just $10!"

"Modern Pan-Asian eatery serving an extensive array of Chinese & Japanese fare in a chill setting. Note: Order directly at Tanuki's website and get a 5-10% discount. Menu:tanukimiami.com"

"A post shared by Izakaya Restaurant (@izakaya_restaurant) on Oct 17, 2017 at 7:19pm PDT. Su-Shin Izakaya in Coral Gables is one of those “If you know, you know” places. It doesn’t really promote itself, and the place has barely any social media presence; we found out about it through word of mouth."

"Izakayas – Japanese bars serving small plates that tend to go well with drinking – seem to be the latest trend. But Su Shin Izakaya, which opened in 1992, was way ahead of the curve. The lengthy menu ranges from sushi to ramen with lots of stops in between."

"Editor’s Note: Sushi by Bou is currently closed for the summer for renovations. Check back on their Instagram during the fall for updates on reopening. There are many different kinds of South Beach, but if you’re looking for the version that’s wearing a neon pink suit and driving a yellow Lamborghini down Ocean Drive, make a reservation at Sushi By Bou."
