  2. Rank 2. Ariete

    French-influenced New American

    Beltran's Coconut Grove dining room marries new American cooking with classical French technique, its dimly lit patio draped in greenery. The tasting menu showcases his gift for creative combinations and silky sauces, from fluke with conch escabeche to venison tartare with bone marrow sabayon.

  3. Rank 3. Shingo

    Sushi

    Chef Shingo Akikuni commands a 14-seat counter in Coral Gables with the ease of someone orchestrating an intimate dinner, his knife work decisive and his rice vinegar sharp. Japanese fish arrives in uniform slices, barely adorned with nikiri, the menu shifting with the seasons—recent specials have included Aomori tuna and matsutake chawanmushi.

  4. Rank 4. Palma

    Contemporary

    A narrow concrete box in Little Havana where a five-person team executes an inventive, frequently changing tasting menu with impressive efficiency. Grilled baby corn wrapped in aged sirloin and roasted-plantain brioche with coconut butter justify the spare, candlelit setting.

  5. Rank 5. Elcielo

    Colombian

    An open kitchen and backlit bar frame chef Juan Manuel Barrientos' elevated Colombian cooking, where tableside theater—charcoal buñuelos with black truffle, a "Tree of Life" bread service—matters as much as the food itself. The progression unfolds through small bites and palate cleansers designed to heighten each course, a deliberate architecture of flavor and spectacle.
