"This nautical spot by Top Chef vets Jeff McInnis and Janine Booth is one of our favorite outdoor dining spots in Miami—and for good reason. Catch us on the patio, indulging in the crispy whole yellowtail snapper, lemon-dusted fried chicken and chilled watermelon and pickles all while staring at the sunset. 1787 Purdy Ave., Miami Beach; 786-353-0477 or stiltsvillefishbar.com"

"One of our favorite spots for seafood and ’Gram-worthy vibes serves an equally satisfying outdoor brunch. Go for the hummingbird waffle topped with rum caramel, charred pineapple and mascarpone whip. And the blue crab cake eggs Benedict."

"Key Biscayne This last one may not look like much but it’s quite unique. Stiltsville is a group of wood stilt houses located a mile south of Cape Florida. The structures stand on wood and stand about 10 feet above the water."

"Restaurants Seafood Downtown. For years, the Epic Hotel’s rooftop bar and restaurant was a magnet for business types grabbing a drink after work in the area. But even without its beat-the-clock happy hour, Area 31 is still luring the locals with its unparalleled views of Downtown and well-priced bites and sips."

"Located on the 16th Floor of the Kimpton Epic Hotel, one of the best hotels in Miami, Area 31 is a popular happy hour spot with gorgeous views overlooking sparkling Miami waterways and downtown Miami. 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."

"Romantic stalwart stays on top with new food and creative cocktails If you thought the Rusty Pelican, with its giant glass windows looking across Biscayne Bay to the skyline, was so romantic it had become cliché, thick again. Not content to be the grand dame of Miami’s romantic restaurants, the venerable Rusty Pelican has completely revamped its menu, adding stuff like fresh sushi, lobster risotto, and an impressive lineup of steaks. The cocktails here are also among the most surprisingly creative in the city, with six herb-infused gin and tonics complimenting an array of craft creations, like the Cider on the Biscayne with Elijah Craig bourbon, Drambuie, apple cider, lemon juice, and sugar cane."

"When they renovated this former 1930s gas station across from a historic Miami cemetery, they did a fantastic job of keeping the floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the cozy banquettes and tables with light. There is usually a diverse bunch of customers, from locals craving fresh oysters to business types wanting to impress their clients with the several kinds of caviar on the menu. And that is the interesting thing about Mignonette: It is both fancy and unpretentious, so everyone fits in."

"This quaint spot between Downtown Miami and Wynwood is an oyster lovers’ paradise, with an ever-changing rotation of fresh oysters from the east and west coasts. In addition to oysters served in all fashions (from raw to Rockefeller-style), indulge in Mignonette’s lobster deviled eggs, buttery lobster rolls and the jumbo diver sea scallops. Be sure to save room for dessert, as the butterscotch and Heath bar bread pudding is worth every calorie."

"Come by and enjoy the wonderful ambiance alongside unforgettable food at Mignonette. Here, you’ll find a varied seafood menu, including an assortment of oysters, seafood towers and an extensive wine and beer menu. Do yourself a favor and make a reservation to ensure they have a seat when you stop in."

As Estiatorio Milos is one of Miami’s most refined and popular restaurants, be prepared to spend a little more than you would at any other restaurant."
