"Food can be like a song, and sometimes you get mac and cheese or ribs or latkes stuck in your head too. Blue Collar is where you go to cure yourself when that happens. This little indoor/outdoor spot is located in a MiMo motel and is almost always packed with people who look like they’ve been thinking about this cheeseburger - easily one of Miami’s best - for weeks."
"Nestled between the motels along Biscayne Blvd., you’ll find Blue Collar serving comfort food with a twist. Whether you’re in the mood for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, your tastebuds will be singing by the end of any meal here. Make sure not to leave without trying their chocolate cake (trust me)."
"This classic sandwich counter in South Beach is open virtually around the clock and functions both as an unrivalled hangover helper and a quick, filling meal before a day at the beach. It serves made-to-order sandwiches stuffed with lettuce, tomato, green peppers, black olives, onions, cucumbers and cornichons on a baguette or croissant with your choice of protein, as well as salads and smoothies. Portions are large enough to share."
"If the first thing you think upon arriving at La Sandwicherie’s Miami Beach location is, “Wait… am I in the right place?. ,” you have arrived. That’s because there’s no restaurant to walk into—just a counter where you can order a sandwich or, if you’re really lucky, grab a seat."
"Restaurants South Beach. Slightly drunk at 2am?. Already starving by noon?"
"This casual sports bar veers a bit into dive bar territory and creates a fun, chilled-out atmosphere. There is live music and themed nights, including karaoke and trivia which are always a lot of fun and the pizza is surprisingly delicious. There is both indoor and open-air seating and drinks are reasonably priced which makes this a great place to hang out for the night."
"There’s always something on at this quirky Wynwood hipster tiki bar, which has its Brooklyn-style pizzeria tucked away inside plus plenty of local beer on tap. Live music, stand-up comedy, DJ sets, bingo nights, and the occasional bout of alligator wrestling make one thing clear — Gramps knows how to party."
"When you live in Miami, you crave more than the glittery neon of South Beach. In Wynwood, the areas most up-and-coming hub for art and nightlife, Gramps appears like a grungy truck stop on the orange dive exterior. Inside, the bar includes live..."
"5 out of 5 stars Restaurants Miami. What kid doesn’t love grilled cheese?. The award-winning food truck’s permanent location in the Upper Eastside serves up some of the ooey-est, gooey-est and most creative cheese sandwiches in the city—like the Frito Pie Melt with house-made chili, American cheese and Fritos on sourdough bread."
"The signature teal food truck stamped with a “sexy maven” pin-up character once rolled around Wynwood selling a single American staple: grilled cheese. But Ms. Cheezious—which has earned awards for Best Food Truck and now has two brick and mortar locations in MIMO—is not your average sandwich spot. You won’t find a grilled cheese on the menu that is simply bread and cheese."
"This fashionable Chinese bistro chain gets high marks with South Dade's trendier diners, who are all about the contemporary interior and eclectic menu. Start off with do-it-yourself lettuce wraps–these babies alone are worth the trip. Afterwards, go any route you like, from Szechwan or Hunan to Cantonese or Shanghai."
"You can leave a tip for your delivery person to show your appreciation for their service. How much you tip is up to you to decide."
"Experience a captivating and unique escape with the perfect balance of luxury, fun, craft, and theatre. Find your perfect retreat with our uniquely crafted packages and special rates at Nobu Hotel Miami Beach."

Aside from pizza, you can try out some of the side dishes such as rosemary bread and burrata. When it comes to pizza, you can count on Mister 01 to satisfy your cravings."
"Star pizza topped with ricotta, and the crust is stuffed with cheese. That alone should have you hopping in the car right now to try out this drool-worthy dish."
"At the helm of this New York City import is restaurateur Stephen Starr, who brings a bit of Italian and Californian flair to South Beach. Cozy up in the plush green booths and dive into sausage and kale pizza, wood-roasted beets cooled with whipped feta and lobster spaghetti with spicy tomato sauce. On warm days, droves of beachgoers will wind down with the daily 4pm-7pm happy hour, where cocktails are $9, beers are $7 and snacks such as crispy squash blossoms clock in at $10."
"For a trendy, California style meal in Miami Beach, Upland Miami is all the rage. The décor fuses coastal and rustic style to create an intimate dining room made from the finest materials. As for the food you will be treated to specialties like Coal Roasted Salmon with pickled beets and farro or Lobster with cast iron rice and tomato."

"DIRT Sunset Harbor is a good bet for a healthy brekkie, while Ice Box is known for more decadent morning dishes. Then, make a beeline for the beach to get a good spot in the sand. The busiest, and notoriously party-oriented, stretch of the beach lies between 5th Street and 20th Street. If that’s not your idea of a perfect day in the sun, head north of 25th Street for a more peaceful beach experience."
"Orange Blossom pays tribute to this legacy by creating a warm and inviting social space, a neighborhood gathering spot, where our market-to-table, New American cuisine is highlighted by our specialty craft cocktails. Using only the freshest ingredients, we locally source our products from South...See More"
"Before donuts became hip and pastry chefs got their hands on them, they were the everyman’s breakfast pastry. Dandee Donuts is one of the few independent places where you can still grab an old-school, traditional donut. You can also sit down and have an omelet, a patty melt, or even a pizza here."
