Top 10 restaurants in Miami
"Out on a dock beneath the shade of beach-blue umbrellas and right next door to the Swimming Hall of Fame and the city marina, you can enjoy a continuous parade of the most impressive yachts you’ve ever seen while digging in to some tasty eat-with-your-hands seafood. The menu offers a delicious fresh take on traditional beach-vacation nibbles, including conch fritters, coconut shrimp, and crab cakes, but they also have a daily special called “scoobies,” a bowl of luscious snow crab legs soaking in roasted garlic butter. This is a great place to order some drinks while watching the sunset."
"Perched 16 floors high inside the EPIC Hotel in Downtown Miami, this longtime restaurant still has some of the best views of Miami's Downtown skyline in the city. Whether going for its popular happy hour or for a seafood feast, grab a seat on its outdoor patio and soak up the views."
"This one is precisely not on that top because there are only 16 floors, but the hotel’s downtown view is fantastic. Moreover, the view is hard to get anywhere else. Therefore, many young professionals and even business people come here to enjoy their happy hours."
"Bars Cocktail bars Brickell. This Brickell hotspot can have a line out the door on weekend nights and Friday happy hour. Brave that line and you’ll be rewarded with 360-views of the city (40 floors up!), pricey (but tasty) cocktails and a swank crowd."
"Nestled in a secret rooftop garden, Sugar is one of Miami’s hidden gems and the perfect setting for a romantic date. Tuck into Asian-inspired tapas and sip seasonal cocktails while watching the sun set across Miami – one of the city’s bucket-list attractions!"
"Even if you've never stayed there, you know the Clevelander. It's where the Jersey Shore crew partied at poolside, and where ESPN set up shop for its pre-Super Bowl LIV coverage. The Ocean Drive hot spot continues to bring the party amid the pandemic, and its “Famous Frozens” haven’t gone anywhere."
"I would skip class my senior year of HS (sorry, Mom), so I could snag brunch at GreenStreet Cafe. It’s right in the heart of Coconut Grove and it has one of the best brunches ever. My personal favorite, are the cinnamon roll pancakes."
"The platters are super filling and generous, so go there with plenty of room in your stomach. There are sit-down dining and outdoor seating. They offer delivery and takeout too."
"Find Glitch Bar at Flagler Village in downtown Fort Lauderdale. You will have the chance to chill out while enjoying some classic arcade games which are always free to play. There is a different event happening every night at Glitch Bar."
"HistoryMiami doesn't sound like the name of a historical museum, which is exactly what its board members had in mind. The less-bulky name signified a new direction for what was previously called the Historical Museum of Southern Florida. Today, the museum, which actually began as a historical association in 1940 continues to offer the exhibits that were developed throughout the previous decades, as well as incorporating new ones."
"This museum offers an array of exhibitions on South Florida's history, with Family Fun Days (think crafts, music, and storytelling) on the second Saturday of each month. But older kids will also like the off-site historical tours, including art walks of Miami neighborhoods, cruises of North Biscayne Bay, or even a "moon cruise" on the Miami River."
"If you are a history buff or culture buff, then you will love the Art and Culture Center of Hollywood. Here you’ll find many contemporary visual art exhibitions, live stage performances, educational facilities for aspiring local artists, and much more. Just be sure to check their website for listings and seasonal exhibitions that are so good."
"The Center, which is southeast of Young Circle, has a great reputation for presenting übercool contemporary art exhibitions and providing…"
"Housing one of Miami's finest private collections, this 30,000-sq-ft gallery has a treasure trove of contemporary works scattered across three floors, which you can roam freely. Rosa and Carlos de la Cruz, who..."
"My boyfriend and I were visiting from PA and came to Miller's after both experiencing a very difficult day. Dan was absolutely incredible."
"If sushi isn’t your favorite type of cuisine, then try exquisite French cuisine at Le Zoo or Italian at Carpaccio. Regardless of your food preferences, Bal Harbour Shops is the place to be for delicious fare."
"South BeachWhat you're getting: Mint Chocolate CookieNot only does this fudge cookie with bright green mint chips in it recreate your favorite flavor of ice cream in a cookie, you can actually get ice cream between two of them, and have it delivered to your house until 3am."
"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."
