The food is locally sourced with a seafood-centric menu with a Mediterranean flavor. At the bar, you’ll find seasonal cocktails and an international wine list."
"Area 31 is on the 16th floor of the Epic Hotel, which means it boasts spectacular views across Biscayne Bay, Miami River, and the city skyline. The restaurant takes its name from Fishing Area 31, which is from where most of the ingredients are sourced. This area is an ecologically sustainable fishery."
"Celebrate mom this Sunday with our Bossa Nova brunch, from 12PM to 3PM. Enjoy live entertainment by... Situated on the 16th floor of the EPIC Hotel in downtown Miami, dining at Area 31 guarantees you a fantastic view of the city in addition to your seafood treat."

"A post shared by Axel Amiez (@amiezaxel) on Sep 14, 2017 at 3:32pm PDT. High on top of the East Hotel is one the city’s best rooftop bars offering views far out across Biscayne Bay to the east and north to downtown. The Asian influence of Sugar is apparent through its decor as well as the Asian inspired drinks and food choices."
"On the 40th floor of the East Miami hotel at Brickell City Centre, you’ll find a lush rooftop garden bar stocked with all the good stuff. Think: truffle pistachio tataki and wok-tossed edamame paired with lychee blossom cocktails and rosé champagne. Plus, the view is to die for."
"Once upon a time, Miami was the city of Champagne and bottle service. Though perhaps in some places bottle service still rules, the past decade has welcomed a craft cocktail movement that takes advantage of Miami’s excellent citrus and vibrant bar scene. Of the many options, The Broken Shaker, however, is the city’s standard-setter."
"The Broken Shaker has helped evolve the Miami mixed drink scene bringing the stiff drinks out of the parlor and into the open air. It's not the velvet slipper and smoking jacket type of cocktail club some out-of-towners may be use to. Patrons sip their drinks scattered around the pool and beneath the over-growth."
"Riviera Focacceria Italiana is a casual family-friendly eatery on Buena Vista Boulevard that serves an array of exceptional cuisine from the Italian region of Liguria. In addition to homemade daily pasta, and the iconic pansoti served in a delicate walnut sauce, Riviera Focacceria Italiana's signature dish is the Focaccia Cheese - a double later super-thin dough filled with imported stracchino cheese. Other delights not to be missed include the pesto alla genovese, fresh seafood and fish of the day, grass-fed steaks and veal chops, and heavenly desserts like Nutella tart, mousse di pistacchio, and panna cotta al vino rosso."
"Specializing in cuisine from Liguria, Riviera Focacceria Italiana is famous for its incredible — you guessed it — focaccia with cheese. But their heavenly bread isn’t the only star on the menu; you’ll also love their amazing selection of seafood dishes, like pan-seared red snapper in a white wine sauce, grilled branzino with sauteed artichokes, and seared tuna filet prepared Ligurian-style over pureed chickpeas, with capers, tomatoes, pine nuts, parsley, and Taggiasca olives gremolata. Details: Riviera Focacceria Italiana is located at 3252 NE Buena Vista Blvd, Suite 110, Miami."
"Let the flavors of the Italian coast delight your senses when you dine at Riviera Focacceria Italiana. This restaurant focuses on the unique cuisine of the northwest Italian region of Liguria, a place with a rich culture and mouthwatering tastes. All their dishes are prepared using fresh local ingredients plus authentic Italian products imported weekly, including Stracchino cheese for their famous Focaccia con il Formaggio."
"This well-known South Beach spot serves up authentic Haitian food in a warm and welcoming setting. Murals on the walls as well as Haitian art transport you to the Caribbean and live music on Thursdays and Saturdays adds a little extra pizazz to the overall lovely experience here. The marinated pork and malanga fritters are some of the best dishes at Tap Tap."
"The food and seating options are endless – making it the best spot to work on South Beach. Make sure you visit the one on 7th, since 17th is in the midst of a tourism central. If you’re craving something sweet, try one of their blended coffee shakes!"
"From Business: Fresh and innovative sandwiches, salads, soups, sweets and more. Specialty coffee is ground from the world's finest beans and prepared by expert baristi."
"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."

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.

"Call it like it is—this was one of the first donut shops to break the mold of the typical glazed donuts in South Florida. Mojo Donuts opened in Pembroke Pines in 2013, just as the donut trend was sweeping the nation, and their large-and-in-charge gourmet donuts stuffed with anything you can think of quickly grabbed attention. (People would often drive from as far away as the Florida Keys to get their hands on the donuts.) With two locations in Miami’s Westchester area and Pembroke Pines, along with a food truck at The Wharf, Mojo offers yeast and cake doughnuts in a dizzying array of choices, which means you’ll want a box to sample them all."
"We watched the Donut King last night and were craving donuts this morning. We ordered: Strawberry cheesecake Banana creme pie Apple berry tart Glazed cro..."
"The building opened in 1925 and became a US National Historic Landmark in 2008.* It’s an impressive landmark. It first started as headquarters for the newspaper Miami News. It now is a contemporary art museum."
"Located just off South Dixie Highway in Homestead, the Coral Castle Museum is a unique outdoor attraction that was built by a local man entirely from local limestone. It’s still a mystery how he moved and manipulated the massive limestone blocks used in the castle’s construction; some have suggested he may have had extraterrestrial help. Though the verdict is still out on that claim, there’s no doubt that it’s a popular attraction with children and adults alike, and it’s one of those one-of-a-kind Florida attractions that you won’t see elsewhere."
"‘You will be seeing unusual accomplishment,’ reads the inscription on the rough-hewn quarried wall. That’s an understatement. There is no greater temple to all that is weird and wacky about South Florida."
"No one’s figured out how one diminutive mason managed to move the huge stones for this sculpture garden dedicated to his lost love."
