Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Miami Beach

"Juvia, the stunning restaurant on the rooftop of the iconic 1111 Lincoln Road building in South Beach, features a brunch menu worthy of its postcard-perfect setting. The restaurant is known for its harmonious blending of French, Japanese and Peruvian cooking styles. Start with bottomless cocktails such as Aperol spritz, prosecco or mimosas before tucking into an inventive appetizer like ceviche carretillero with white fish, crispy calamari and red onions."

"Another great spot that you will find in lincoln road is Juvia, where you can enjoy the breathtaking views of south beach. Unfortunately, with the sky-high views, the price of food and drinks is also high. But, if you genuinely want to enjoy the vacations right then, you must come to juvia."

"Located in Loews Miami Beach Hotel, the Lure Fish Bar is elegant and upscale, with a beautiful, comfortable dining room and a spectacular outdoor terrace overlooking the beach. With a separate entrance, gleaming woods, cool blue tones, tasteful nautical décor, and well-dressed guests, Lure is the place to come for a special event or even just for the very good selection of fresh seafood and the spectacular raw bar with oysters from both coasts as well as imaginative sushi. The menu is extensive, and expensive, so there is something for everyone, but you can get a taste of what is available with a choice of small plates such as deviled eggs with caviar or tuna tacos."

"If you’re looking for a getaway to the Greek islands, you might as well save on airfare and visit Mandolin instead. Housed in a 1940s home, this quaint blue and white restaurant covered under blooming bougainvillea is reminiscent of the Greek tavernas. Tables are set in a lush garden lit by dainty patio lights where the soft murmur of conversation makes it all the more romantic."

"The best Greek and Turkish food in Miami is tucked away in the intimate, understated courtyard at Mandolin. Transport to the Greek isles with a menu of elegant small plates — no overfried falafel here — entrees like lamb and beef meatballs, and the exceptional grilled octopus, all with refreshing Greek wine to complete the meal."

"Planta is more on the upscale side of what the vegan Miami scene offers, making it the ideal location for a date night or a girls’ night out. You’ll definitely want to whip out your camera here, plus a desire for trying something out of the ordinary. The cuisine, a creative rendition of maki rolls — think watermelon tuna nigiri and spicy tuna rolls, torched avo sushi, as well as heart of palm California rolls."

"Restaurants Vegan South of Fifth. This stylish plant-based restaurant in the South of Fifth ’hood serves pancakes, pizza and queso dip that won’t completely wreck your waistline. Think of Planta as an upgrade from your usual hippy, vegan dive."

"The solo debut by Miami’s own Top Chef winner, Jeremy Ford, Stubborn Seed is a cozy-yet-hip South of Fifth spot turning out some of the city’s most elevated cuisine. While there is a complete a la carte menu with dishes like ricotta gnudi, warm celery root with crispy mushrooms, and smoked prime rib, the real highlight here is the tasting menu, where guests can try a bevy of classics and seasonal creations, plus get some of its melt-in-your mouth gooey snickerdoodle cookies to take home to remember the meal."

"Snickerdoodle fans rejoice — Stubborn Seed’s famed cookies are available to go. Other sweet menu items include salted fudge brownies, key lime crumble, coconut flan, and ice cream sandwiches. There’s even a special gift box that features a 6-inch cake (chocolate cookies and cream or vanilla with cheesecake frosting), a bottle of bubbles, personalized card, and candles for $75."

"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."

"Dirty Burgers is located in Wynwood, next to the Dirty Rabbit. If you really want a burger, we suggest you choose Dirty Burger with Classic Fries or Mushroom Burger. This place will greet you with friendly staff and give you quick service, even when the restaurant is busy."

"Known for the spirit, freshness, and French flare they put into every dish, L'Edito French Restaurant is the place to go for a full-on French meal. Start your night with a glass of wine then move onto an appetizer. Favorites include the French onion soup, escargot in flaky puff pastry, and pan-seared foie gras."

"A tap room, beer market and growler bar has firmly taken root in Little Havana, and the locals have quickly become fans. From the former owners of the Miami Brew Bus (and a previous partner of Kush), Union Beer Store dabbles in exotic brews. Whale hunters—those seeking unattainable beers—flock to this craft mecca, which boasts 20 taps and refrigerated cases of hard-to-find bottles."

"On Saturdays and Sundays for brunch, Pisco y Nazca serves a signature Peruvian take on flapjacks. Pancakes here are made with alfajores, traditional Latin milk-and-sugar sandwich cookies filled with dulce de leche, which are crumbled into the batter. The creamy, sticky treats come in a trio, topped with a layer of dulce de leche in place of caramel and served with fruit salad and whipped cream ($9)."

"Seafood, like in the chaufa pictured here, anchors the vast majority of Pisco y Nazca's menu. Pisco is a city in the Ica region of Peru that's famous for its grape brandy of the same name. Nazca is a desert town on the southern coast of Peru, which is also known for its production of pisco."

"Whether you’re seated in the intimate dining room or the lush courtyard, at Joey’s you’ll feel like you’re dining at a friend’s welcoming home. The casual Italian eatery – which was one of the first restaurants in Wynwood – is all about the carb life, with an array of authentic pizzas and pastas. You can’t go wrong with the spaghetti vongole, made with middleneck clams, olive oil, garlic and white wine sauce."

"As the name suggests Joey’s is located in the Wynwood area of Miami and it was actually the first restaurant to open in the area. It is one of the best Miami Italian restaurants for pizza but has a full menu with other dishes. Try the grilled octopus, eggplant parmigiana, or meatballs for a starter or try the Charcuterie platter that comes in two sizes depending on the size of your party!"
