The Top 100 Places to Eat Near Versailles

The sharp smell of vinegar hitting the air signals the start of service at this 14-seat omakase counter in Coral Gables, where chef Shingo Akikuni holds a Michelin star. Fish comes almost entirely from Japan, each piece dressed with little more than a swipe of nikiri. Fourteen seats sounds intimate until you notice the team switching sides mid-meal without missing a beat, running the room like it's half the size.

Dim sum from a chef who treats borders as loose suggestions, set inside a ground-floor office building in Coral Gables that looks like it should house a dentist. The dumplings started as a pop-up and earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand and a James Beard semifinalist nod before finding a permanent home here. The cooking pulls from China, Japan, and Italy in the same breath, and somehow it coheres. A Niman Ranch short rib filling alongside charred cabbage in chili butter will tell you more than any summary.

Bookshelves line the glass façade, which is either a design choice or a very strong hint about the vibe. This Cuban cafe in Coral Gables does cafe con leche, pastelitos, and sandwiches in a room full of mid-century furniture, with palm tree shade outside if you prefer. The Cubano is the thing to order. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, which means the ratio of quality to price is doing real work here.

Foie toast, a round of goose liver ganache on rye with a dot of strawberry preserves, sets the tone at this contemporary Japanese fine dining room in Coral Gables. The chef team behind the original has rebuilt it with a bolder personality, and the menu moves freely between tasting format and à la carte without losing its nerve. Bone marrow panna cotta and a creamsicle ice cream sandwich share real estate here, and somehow that feels earned.

An arch of roses at the door signals exactly the kind of bakery this is: one where the pastries look almost too considered to eat. Antonio Bachour's Coral Gables shop holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the counter seats face a glass-enclosed kitchen where those famously ornate croissants and tarts take shape. There's savory food too, but everyone here has already mentally committed to dessert before they've sat down.

A short, ever-rotating menu of around eight dishes anchors this casual neighborhood spot in coral gables, where everything is made in house and the cooking bounces freely between Venezuelan, Japanese, and American touchpoints. The crab arepa alone explains the Michelin Bib Gourmand. Coffee is taken seriously, the flan has a following, and the room runs warm in the way that happens when the people who opened a place still work it every night.

The Cuban sandwich here starts with pork butt marinated for a full week before it ever meets the press. This old-school Little Havana sandwich shop holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, and there's nearly always a line snaking through the narrow emerald-green room to prove the point.

This intimate omakase pulls you through a procession of snacks, sushi, and small surprises, including a Kumamoto oyster served in a dashi "shell" and madai sliced to resemble a rose.

A Wynwood omakase that earns its Michelin star behind a sliding door with a time-sensitive passcode, which is either thrilling or mildly stressful depending on your punctuality. Inside, Chef Seijun Okano runs a compact counter where fish arrives from Japan multiple times a week, pressed into vinegar-seasoned rice made fresh each service. Questions are encouraged, drinks flow, and the playlist keeps things from getting too reverent.

The chef and a sous cook, plate, and clear the room themselves, turning out a frequently changing contemporary menu where the roasted plantain brioche, served hot with caramelized coconut butter, appears to be non-negotiable.

This is a contemporary Mexican restaurant with a South Florida accent, where the kitchen folds king crab and ikura into the menu as casually as it handles lamb barbacoa with house-made corn tortillas.
