Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Miami-Dade County

"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."

"Das Ambiente ist top- das Essen leider nicht- ceviche nicht annähernd so gut wie im cVC105- Tuna seared enttäuschend- Chicken kein Vergleich zum Yardbird etc. Kellner brachte den Aperitif zum Hauptgang- dauerte so lang!. Salz kam gar nicht - Etc."

"When you step through the cerulean front door and into Mandolin’s whitewashed courtyard, it feels as though you’ve teleported to Santorini. The Aegean restaurant opened in 2009, before the Design District developed into a popular Miami destination, and quickly garnered fans thanks to its fresh menu of Greek-Turkish classics and fruit-filled sangria. Snag a spot on the shaded terrace, and cover the table with grilled halloumi, fish swimming in olive oil and lemon juice, chunks of watermelon served with mint and feta, and spicy meat kebabs with thick yogurt."

"A cozy bungalow with old family recipes If food can make the Greeks and Turks fall in love, clearly it’ll work wonders for your date. This spot set in an old 1940s Buena Vista bungalow was founded by a Greek/Turkish couple who’ve taken their family recipes and are serving them in a Christmas light-draped courtyard. Sharing the Greek or Turkish samplers is but the beginning of a night or romance, as you converse across dim light over tirokafteri or hummus and eggplant."

"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!)"

"PLANTA's vision goes beyond taking animals off the plate — it exists to bring guests an uncompromising restaurant experience that champions environmental sustainability. Under chef David Lee, PLANTA proudly offers fare that uses high-quality ingredients from ethical suppliers. PLANTA flagship serving up must-haves like cauliflower tots, PLANTA burger, lettuce wraps, bianca pizza, aloe views, chocolate terrarium & more."

"Located in the heart of South Beach, Planta is the most popular vegan restaurant in Miami. Using herbs, microgreens and vegetables hand-picked from its rooftop garden, its plant-based menu offers innovative versions of contemporary cuisine. Among the favorites is the Bianca – a wood-fired white pizza with cauliflower, rosemary potatoes and cashew mozzarella."

"I loved the service and the food wasn't bad, the place inside was cute. They were having a brunch that was bottomless mimosas or margaritas for $25...."

"Tucked away in South Beach’s South of Fifth neighborhood, this spot is worth visiting. Top Chef winner Jeremy Ford’s restaurant offers indulgent multi-course tasting menus centered on New American cuisine. Every meal ends with crowd-pleasing snickerdoodles, served warm and oozing with a rich chocolate filling."

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

"Tayrona is a new (mostly) Colombian restaurant in Allapattah from the team behind Wood. There’s outdoor seating, a full bar, and a menu with empanadas, arepas, and sushi."

"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."

"The chocolate brigadeiro cake at Sagrado Cafe is an indulgent combination of moist layers of chocolate cake and brigadeiros, Brazil's signature truffle. Thanks to sweetened condensed milk in the truffle mixture, the cake remains moist despite the absence of frosting. To add to the richness, mini brigadeiros top the whole thing ($8 to $69 depending upon the size)."

"With an enchanted garden atmosphere, this Brazilian café in downtown Miami is a great place for family bonding time. Kids' meals ($14) start with a sharable warm basket of gluten-free cheese bread and a choice of soda or juice. Then it's on to their own plate of chicken Milanese, served with a side of rice, fries, or mac 'n' cheese."

"In business since 1991 and located at the rear of the hotel lobby, overlooking the Sealine Marina, this elegant Chinese establishment has earned a solid reputation for its attentive tableside service, white tablecoth-and-fresh-flower decor, and consistently excellent Hong Kong-style Cantonese cuisine. On one side, you have a view of the sunken kitchen sealed by a glass wall, where you can watch the expert chefs whip up masterful concoctions. On the other side of the open, airy dining room, you get sprawling views of Biscayne Bay and the Venetian Isles."

"Restaurants Chinese Omni. This nondescript, banquet hall-style restaurant does Chinese food for Americans, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing if exotic cuisine isn’t your thing. Don’t miss Tony Chan’s Peking duck and its fried fish drizzled with the chef’s special sweet-and-sour sauce."

"Internationally renowned Chinese Restaurant in Miami, FL located inside the Doubletree Grand Hotel lobby, next to Biscayne Bay and the Sea Isles Marina"

"The Zagat Rated, AAA Four Diamond Award Winning restaurant Hakkasan has much to brag about. This gem inside the world-renowned Fontainbleau Hotel on Miami Beach is known for its unique and authentic Cantonese dishes, including a weekend Dim Sum Lunch that high-rolling locals are raving about. Chef de Cuisine Jian Heng Loo has created incredibly delectable dishes including a Black Pepper Beef Tenderloin and a Crispy Duck Salad with Jasmine Tea-Smoked Ribs."

"Restaurants Chinese Miami Beach. This swanky Chinese restaurant inside the Fontainebleau Miami Beach Hotel has the look of a sexy Asian parlor, though far less nefarious (unless it’s late-night, then anything goes). The food, however, is an above-board experience of expertly executed Cantonese dishes with a twist—think crispy duck salad and jamine-tea-smoked ribs."

"Hakkasan, located in the enormous Fontainbleau, has a breathtaking decor, walls carved out with oriental design and a waterfall at the bar. The menu is inspired by Chef Loo and includes small dishes with duck, noodle platters with homemade sauces, and an array of seafood, meat, and vegetarian entrees. The restaurant also offers an extensive wine and cocktail menu, perfect for the lounge atmosphere and relaxing for post-dinner drinks."

"A post shared by Minty Z Plant-Based Restaurant (@mintyzllc). Minty Z is a chill Miami eatery serving up vegan dim sum and plant-based Asian fusion in the heart of Coconut Grove. You’ll most likely want to plan your visit around one of their event nights, like Sake Cinema (that’s half-off sake, a dope movie, and complimentary spicy popcorn) or Wonton Wednesday ($1 wontons and half-off wonton soup)."
