The Top 100 Places to Eat and Drink Near 3rd Street Beach Yoga
-
Rank 1. Stubborn Seed
Contemporary New American
Chef Jeremy Ford's corner restaurant commands attention with a glass-fronted kitchen and industrial-chic room where Latin and Asian impulses collide across an ambitious tasting menu. Celery root croquette with beef bacon jam gives way to ricotta gnudi with Manchego foam; a five-acre farm in Redland supplies much of the produce. The cooking trades in controlled risk—bold without losing itself.

Rank 2. Joe's Stone Crab
Seafood
A lunch counter from 1913 that has outlasted Miami Beach's transformation into a gleaming city, Joe's Stone Crab remains the place where locals and tourists queue for cracked claws, chilled and dipped in mustard sauce, followed by tart, custard-tinged key lime pie. The crowds suggest something durable and true about the restaurant's hold on the city's appetite.

Rank 3. The Den
Sushi
Behind a sliding door in a hotel dining room, a blond cypress counter frames the stage for meticulous sushi craft. Fish arrives from Japanese markets multiple times weekly, sliced with unhurried precision and paired with gentle innovations—uni soy sauce, miso-dotted octopus—while the itamae trade formality for genuine warmth and accommodation.

Rank 8. Macchialina
Italian
A cramped dining room of tufted leather and a covered patio draws locals nightly to this Italian spot. The kitchen excels at house-made pasta—silken spaghetti with tomato, cacio e pepe—while an Italian-forward wine list and infused grappas anchor the bar. Tiramisu arrives reinterpreted with dulce de leche and sea salt espresso granita, a small gesture toward Miami that feels earned.

Rank 9. Estiatorio Milos
Greek Seafood
The gleaming ice case in back—a walk-through showcase of the day's catch—tells you everything about Estiatorio Milos, where the kitchen's confidence in its ingredients means little theatrics are needed. Bigeye tuna arrives with yuzu kosho and dill; whole fish emerge from the salt crust; lobsters are simply grilled. It's a place where the seafood speaks, and South Beach listens.

The Ginger Lilliam—stracciatella, tomato, and an audacious heap of fresh ginger on seventy-two-hour-proofed dough—announces his playful seriousness about the form.

Pizza
Dark wood and emerald walls create a sultry cocoon inside the Elser Hotel's ViceVersa, where Neapolitan pizza shares billing with raw bar selections—royal red shrimp with cherry bomb relish, boldly seasoned Italian appetizers—and an affogato martini that collapses the boundary between dessert and drink.

In Miami's Design District, L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon assembles its signature counter kitchen beneath rosewood and leather, where a bread basket arrives before seared scallops in cilantro broth give way to lamb in eggplant cups. The execution is precise, the plating theatrical, and the final chocolate sensation justifies the pilgrimage.

There's a hidden karaoke machine too. Come as you are.

Korean Steakhouse
A neon corridor thrums with bass as you enter this Korean steakhouse, where aged beef gleams in a display room like precious inventory. Simon Kim's team moves through the room with practiced ease, seasoning each dish with precision and guiding diners through cuts of marbled beef, stews, and a kimchi Wagyu paella that justifies the ceremony.

Cantonese Chinese
You enter through the Fontainebleau's din into a darkened room of marble and carved wood screens, where bass pulses beneath the clatter of plates. Hakkasan pivots between Cantonese tradition—silken dumplings, lacquered duck—and lighter contemporary turns, scallops curried with lily bulb among them.

Wood-fired Pizza
A wood-fired Brooklyn transplant on Bay Road, all plank floors and chunky tables, where eighteen-inch pies emerge with blistered crust, bright tomato, and basil—half-dressed options let you hedge your bets between restraint and excess.
