Ecuadorian Peruvian
Chef Alejandra Espinoza builds her North Miami dining room around Ecuador's rhythms and flavors, with warm light and curated music setting the tone.

Rank 40. The Surf Club Restaurant
New American
The Surf Club wraps diners in Art Deco amber—vintage bar, plush banquettes, the careful glamour of a private club that happens to be open to guests. Thomas Keller's Florida debut trades innovation for precision: a crab cake gains spice and freshness, lobster thermidor finds new life through sauce, and the chocolate soufflé, when available, justifies its reputation.

Steakhouse
A Little River steakhouse where art deco glamour meets casual Florida swagger, the room hums with the kind of crowd that makes you want to linger. The beef speaks for itself, but the bone marrow vinaigrette and schmaltz-fried potatoes suggest a kitchen unafraid of small luxuries.

Modern French
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.

Wood-fired Pizza
Little River's La Natural draws crowds with wood-fired pies built on a cold-fermented crust, topped with everything from za'atar to burrata, in a concrete bunker lit like an underground party. The natural wine list and thoughtful starters—papaya with kumquat among them—suggest a pizzeria that takes its craft seriously.

Rank 67. COTE
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.

Rank 69. Pao by Paul Qui
Asian
Beneath a gold dome crowned with a Damien Hirst unicorn, Paul Qui's dining room commands the Faena with theatrical grandeur and a short menu that pivots across Asian influences with ease. Scallop aguachile with black lime and roasted bass with chili patis prove the place earns its architecture through cooking that swings from sweet to spicy without hesitation.
-
Rank 70. Ogawa
Sushi
In a warm-wood room anchored by bold art, Masayuki Komatsu's omakase unfolds with uncommon range: hay-smoked mackerel and vinegar-marinated snapper give way to pristine nigiri—needlefish with ginger, flash-fried shrimp, cuttlefish caviar—each piece a small argument against convention.

Rank 78. Tambourine Room By Tristan Brandt
Contemporary
Inside the Carillon's wood-paneled lobby, Tambourine Room begins with cocktails before seating you in an intimate dining room designed for whispered conversation. Tristan Brandt's multicourse menu moves between continents—New Zealand venison, local snapper, porcelet with caviar—each plate finished with the precision of a jeweler.
-
Rank 79. ViceVersa
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.

Rank 81. 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.

Mediterranean
A whitewashed courtyard rimmed with mature trees and orchids sets the scene at this Aegean bistro, where mezze and grilled fish sandwiches anchor a menu rooted in Turkish and Greek tradition. The creamy baked feta and honey pie with salted shortbread suggest a kitchen attuned to both restraint and pleasure.

Vietnamese
A husband-and-husband team runs this Vietnamese supper club near downtown with no pretense and plenty of verve: fish sauce caramel wings, lamb lettuce wraps, tamarind pork ribs designed for fingers rather than forks, and a cashew cheesecake with passionfruit. There's a hidden karaoke machine too. Come as you are.

Contemporary Italian
Between a laundromat and medical center, a neon-pink door opens onto a forest-green dining room where chefs Luciana Giangrandi and Alex Meyer blur Italian tradition with playful invention. Crispy polenta gives way to house-made pasta and veal sweetbreads spiked with jalapeño—food that asks what Italian cooking might become in Miami's hands.

Wood-fired New American
The team from Boia De sets up shop in a corner spot fueled entirely by wood fire, where vegetables claim surprising prominence on a playful menu. Carrot tartare with carrot top salsa and mustard green pasta sheets stuffed with lamb ragù show restraint and wit, while charred quail captures backyard barbecue at its best. It's casual enough for families, refined enough to matter.

Bakery
A color-splashed storefront in Wynwood announces baker Zak Stern's return home, where Swedish and Israeli apprenticeships inform his kosher breads and pastries. Avocado toast and crispy fish on brioche draw steady crowds, but the seasonal concha—burnished, pillowed—justifies a visit on its own.
