"The kingpin of Lincoln Road fine dining, Juvia is the mall’s rooftop hot spot and is perfect for a date night filled with chic people watching. Diners whisk up to the ninth floor of the 1111 Lincoln Road building for skyline views and a medley of French, Japanese, and Peruvian cuisine. View this post on Instagram"

"This rooftop restaurant overlooks all of Lincoln Road and serves up some of the best food I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. It’s pretty pricey, so you might want to get your parents to treat you."

"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."

"With ambiance that is reminiscent of the tranquil Greek islands, Mandolin Aegean Bistro has become a go-to for locals looking for a romantic night out in the Miami Design District. Sweep your date off their feet as soon as you pass through the blue-framed doors, where you can hide away at a table inside the intimate 1940s bungalow, or settle on the lush patio at a lantern-lit table beneath the trees. The husband-and-wife team who own the restaurant are from Greece and Turkey, so expect authentic recipes in shareable, light dishes such as a Greek sampler of dips, steamed mussels, marinated grilled octopus and lamb kebabs."

"The meat-free burgers are made with black beans, mashed lentils and beetroot and topped with a gooey vegan “cheese” made of carrot and potato. Plus, the restaurant is chock-full of other vegetarian and vegan plates, such as cauliflower “tater” tots, fruit and vegetable sushi, “ceviche” made with coconut instead of fish, and a creamy bucatini pasta with zucchini spirals. 850 Commerce St., Miami Beach; 305-397-8513 or plantarestaurants.com"

"Planta is one of my favourite restaurants in Toronto and so you better believe the South Beach location (the original) had to make the list. Beyond being incredibly instagrammable Planta has incredible food that Vegans and non Vegans alike will love. Planta was opened with the purpose of creating delicious food that promotes environmental sustainability."

"While grabbing a table at Stubborn Seed is usually hard to do, now that it offers takeout, guests can try out the cuisine anytime they’d like. Opt for the warm celery root, crunchy truffle potatoes, and the wagyu filet. And don’t miss the gooey snickerdoodle cookies for dessert."

"It’s actually Top Chef winner Jeremy Ford’s South Beach restaurant. While his savory food is delicious, what we really can’t get enough of is pastry chef Dallas Wynne’s snickerdoodles. They’re served warm and oozing with a rich chocolate filling."

"Amare Ristorante is perfectly nestled on a spacious corner in the South of Fifth neighborhood of South Beach, welcoming guests with its 4,000-square-foot outdoor terrace. It’s a multi-sensory destination, dotted with the colors and scents of bougainvillea and lemon trees. Michelin-starred Chef Cosimo Cassano has curated a menu inspired by the flavors of Naples and the Amalfi Coast, with savory specialties such as the pasta di gragnano with a one-pound Maine lobster; agnello al Moscato di trani grilled Colorado lamb chops; and branzino al sale, whole salt-baked Mediterranean sea bass."

"Located at New River Drive and South Andrews Avenue, this outdoor dining treasure is simply magical. From your table enjoy an endless parade of boats and yachts with a picture-postcard view of downtown's grand high rises. This place has it all: Lunch, dinner, wine and brunch menus, specials, history, and location."

"The Downtowner Saloon is in my opinion probably the most overlooked and underrated bar in Fort Lauderdale. It is located directly on the New River with great views of the river and downtown. Seating is offered on the river as well."

"For those of you who want a little more variety (or for those that don't like shopping), you can stop at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, where there is something for everyone. Guests have the option to enjoy the casino, horse racing, live entertainment and more."

"Hollywood Beach, an area 100-yards long, is located between Pershing & Custer Streets. The Dog Beach is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 3pm to 7pm. During Daylight Savings Time the hours are 4pm to 8pm."

"Follow the "hot light" in North Miami to find melt-in-your-mouth, signature original glazed doughnuts from Krispy Kreme. At times you'll see locals lining the streets waiting for the first batch of doughnuts in the wee hours of the morning. Try the iconic brand's eight wonderful varieties of doughnuts, including jelly-filled, powdered, chocolate, cinnamon, coconut and even the peanut cake stick."

"The national brand is offering customers a free doughnut this Friday – in fact, all week!. No purchase necessary!. Check out the locations in Miami."

"The big difference is that the Donuts are warm and melts in your mouth. The coffee is also excellent quality."

"America’s favorite all-day, everyday stop for coffee, espresso, breakfast sandwiches and donuts. Order your Dunkin’ faves via the drive-thru or order ahead of time with the Dunkin’ mobile app for a fast grab and go experience."

"Doughnut Break features gourmet doughnuts with a European touch that can be seen in the form of many homemade meringues and specialty creams. Here, those with a sweet tooth can order unique doughnuts like the natillas made with Maria crackers and a touch of cinnamon or the doughnut croissant filled with its famous crema catalana.

"Multiple locationsAsk anyone who’s left Miami the food they miss most, and the answer isn’t a fancy restaurant or a Cuban dive. It’s chop chop, the yellow-rice-and-mojo-chicken magic that’s the unofficial lunch food of Miami. It’s almost impossible to find outside South Florida, and the quintessential spot for it is Chicken Kitchen, where you can try Cuban Chops, Mexican Chops, Chinese Chops, or even wraps."
