Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Country Walk

"With panoramic views of South Beach, this swanky penthouse retreat is totally photo-worthy, but it’s more than a pretty post. The menu features a mix of French, Peruvian and Japanese cooking, and whether you’re having the truffle ceviche or crispy prosciutto-topped burrata, you’re in for a memorable meal."

"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."

"Offering a menu full of delicious Greek and Turkish cuisine, Mandolin Aegean Bistro is situated in Miami's Design District. Founded in 2009 by husband and wife, Ahmet Erkaya and Anastasia Koutsioukis, the idea behind Mandolin was to serve simple, unpretentious, healthy food using fresh ingredients in a welcoming atmosphere. With a peaceful outdoor dining area, and a garden growing seasonal ingredients for the dishes, it's clear that Ahmet and Anastasia have achieved their goal with Mandolin."

"Probably the least Miami Instagrammable destination on this list, but totally perfect if you feel like pretending you’ve been whisked off to a Greek island. Not only are the decor and ambiance straight out of a dream at Mandolin, but so is its food so make sure to snap a pic or two before digging in (if you can resist the temptation!)"

"Channel your inner Greek goddess by requesting an alfresco table on the restaurant’s whitewashed, greenery-filled outdoor patio and diving into over a few orders of the cheese saganaki and kefte meatballs. 4312 NE Second Ave.; 305-749-9140 or mandolinmiami.com.

"Vegan and plant-based diets have slowly been gaining popularity around the country, and Miami is no different. While some older establishments in the scene have come and gone, we're happy that Planta (a fully plant-based restaurant on South Beach) is still making a splash since its opening. The original Planta opened in Toronto several years back, and when hospitality-and-entertainment mogul David Grutman happened upon the vegan Canadian favorite, he decided to bring it back to the 305."

"This buzzy Toronto-import — brought to Miami by none other than mega-club mogul, David Grutman — serves up dishes like coconut ceviche, Korean fried lettuce wraps, and truffle and cashew mozzarella pizza, while the sushi bar is serving up a variety of hand rolls, wraps, sushi and nigiri — all sans meat or fish. In addition, cold-press cocktails, juices and shots are also on hand to wash back the cuisine. View this post on Instagram"

"Chef David Lee launched Planta in South Beach with the mission of crafting food that’s sustainable – without using any animal products. He showcases how plant-based eating can be healthy and environmental while still actually tasting good. It’s certainly not just about vegetables here – after all, Lee transforms mushrooms and watermelon into nigiri – and he allows diners to forget that his queso dip is vegan."

"The brunch menu is split between sweet and savory making it easy to order dessert for breakfast. Go for the Chai waffles with whipped espresso cream and spiced syrup. Maybe the espresso cream will help fight off the sugar coma."

"There were some pretty small portions, but some really great tastes. We didn't love everything we tried, but it was definite..."

"The Barsecco serves classic and inventive cocktails, the best wines from around the world and beers. The ambience is trendy and classy with plush interiors, barn wood and draping vines. The lighting is dim and intimate, offering a great setting for a date night."

"Vegetarian , Vegan"

"Luca is Giorgio Rapicavoli’s delicious salute to his home country, serving up modern interpretations of Italian classics. Why we love it: We know this is a restaurant list, but we’re going to lead with cocktails. Luca’s impressive list of Italian standards and reinvented classics deserves serious praise."

"I woke up at 6:43am the morning after having dinner at Luca Osteria, an Italian restaurant in Coral Gables, and panicked. I realized I forgot the leftovers in the car. So I got up and retrieved the last bits of perfectly al dente cacio pepe, and citrusy bucatini alle vongole with tender manila clams."

"Highway 41, Miami, (305) 894-2374, gladeseats.miccosukee.com.

"If you’re unafraid of the inevitable sugar high, Sugar Factory could be one of the most fun spots to hit with the whole family. Don’t be fooled by the name, there’s more than just sweets to be found here. This shop and restaurant located in South Beach’s Hotel Victor has a huge menu packed with pancakes, waffles, French toast, crepes, sandwiches, pizza, milkshakes, sundaes, and more."

"4 out of 5 stars Restaurants South Beach. Willy Wonka has nothing on this South Beach sugar emporium. Up front, the bulk bins overflowing with sweets and adorable rubber duckies are sure to lure little ones in, but it’s the brasserie in the back that cinches the deal."

"When people from outside Miami think of South Beach nightlife they picture a place with a relaxed vibe, trendy layout, beautiful people and a party that goes all night under the stars. The place they imagine takes form in the shape of Skybar at the Sho...[Learn more]"

"The latest version of pawnbroker, bloom skybar, definitely has a lot to offer. Luckily, the bar is in the city’s prime location where you can see real nightlife and downtown views. The building beneath the bar has a history date back to 1925."

"Bright yellow umbrellas, a vibrant crowd and sweeping views of Biscayne Bay make The Lido Bayside Grill at The Standard a stunning waterfront destination. The menu focuses on fresh, local ingredients, with lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Start the meal with the grilled sourdough bread basket and edamame with cool ranch spice."

"A post shared by my life in tiny squares (@theposhaholic) on Nov 23, 2018 at 6:35pm PST. Taking inspiration from traditional Mediterranean recipes, you can expect bright and zesty dishes at Lido Bayside Grill. Serving organic produce, it’s a great spot to enjoy brunch with family or friends."

"American , Seafood"

"Restaurants Ice cream parlors Design District. Pastry chef Soraya Caraccioli-Kilgore’s playful dessert spot sells vibrant unicorn cakes, rich chocolate bark and soft-serve in unexpected flavors. Her ice cream, in varieties such as matcha and berry rhubarb, is already pretty special yet she always finds a way to kick it up a notch with add-ons like edible glitter, gold leaf, gold dust, cotton candy and fancy sprinkles—and we’re all the more grateful for it."

"Soraya Kilgore — best known as the pastry chef at restaurants like Brava and Alter — is the woman behind this palace of sweets in Miami's Design District. MadLab Creamery isn't just about the ice cream, however. This spot also entices young and old to create their own sweet-treat work of art via more than 30 toppings, including edible glitter, tufts of pink cotton candy, golden-sheet sprinkles, even a macaroon or two."

"Restaurants Cuban West Little Havana. Versailles—the famous Cuban bakery that needs no introduction—has a bakery next door to its buzzing restaurant, where a steady stream of Miamians buys pastelitos pretty much all day. Taking a break from the sugar?"
