The Best Places to Eat and Drink in Miami

Eat + Drink, change section

Departments

A department belongs to one section, so choosing one narrows the list to it.



  1. Rank 103. Aioli

    Bakery

    An all-day bakery and café on South Dixie where the in-house bread pulls double duty, appearing in the breakfast sandwiches, alongside the soups at lunch, and leaving with you by the loaf on the way out. The menu shifts often, which keeps the regulars from coasting. Dinner options exist, though they're the take-home-and-reheat variety, which is either very convenient or very honest about how evenings in West Palm go. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand.

    The awards


  2. Rank 103. El Turco

    Turkish

    A glass-walled kitchen kiosk tiled in blue and white anchors this casual Turkish café tucked inside a shopping enclave, with most of the action happening at outdoor tables under old oak trees. The menu runs breakfast and mezze all day, with house-baked börek, manti, and egg dishes that lean on Turkish pantry flavors rather than brunch clichés. The Michelin Guide gave it a Bib Gourmand, which tracks for a spot this unfussy and this good at what it does.

  4. A hulking beef rib crusted with salt and pepper, served in a warehouse the size of a small airport, is your first clue that this isn't Miami's usual scene. Pitmaster Bill Durney's Brooklyn original comes to the Miami Produce Center, where forklifts idle outside and the smell of smoke drifts past a long bar and open kitchen. The Michelin Bib Gourmand BBQ shop does brisket that would hold its own in Texas, with yucca bowls on the side for local color.

  6. Half gourmet butcher shop, half casual wagyu restaurant, this West Palm spot earns a Michelin Bib Gourmand by applying one ingredient to almost every item on the menu, including the Nutella brownie. Japanese, Australian, and American wagyu shows up in a breakfast sandwich, a burger, lumpia, and a burrito with tots. The room is wood tables and caramel leather, relaxed enough that the "Nice to Meat You" sign lands without embarrassment.

  7. The Ethiopian coffee service, brought to the table with ceremony, is a good sign you're in a homestyle Ethiopian restaurant that takes its cues seriously. The family team runs a warm, unfussy room in Miami Gardens, turning out doro wat and shiro on a spread of sour injera. The New York Times put it on their Miami list, which feels right for a place that quietly fills a gap the size of Miami-Dade County.


  8. Rank 109. B & M Market

    Caribbean

    B & M is a Caribbean grocery where the restaurant is wherever the chef happens to be, which is the kitchen at the back. You walk past the shelves, lean in, and tell her what you want, and she returns with oxtail or curry goat over rice and peas, or wrapped in a roti. Cow foot soup turns up some days. The pepper sauce is bottled in-house and sold at the register, so keep a tissue handy. Order is cheap, casual, and done standing up.

  10. The frita at this old-school Cuban cafeteria on Calle Ocho is a smash burger built Havana-style: beef patty seasoned with cumin and paprika, crispy potato strings, diced onion, and a soft Cuban bun. The founder, now in his late eighties, still takes his afternoon glass of wine at the end of the counter. The New York Times put it on their Miami list, alongside the other half of a local argument that runs the way Philly's cheesesteak debate does.

  11. Rank 109. La Camaronera

    Cuban Seafood

    The pan con minuta is a whole gutted fried snapper tucked into a Cuban roll, tail hanging out, more fish than bread can reasonably hold. This Little Havana seafood counter has been around forever, and the logic is simple: everything comes out of the fryer to order, which is the whole secret. A retail fish case up front means the hogfish you're eyeing is the same one ending up on your plate.


  12. Madroño is a Nicaraguan sit-down restaurant in a West Flagler strip mall, where white tablecloths are laid for comfort food that usually arrives in a takeout container. It's a family-occasion room, the sort where a First Communion party feels perfectly on brand. Groups order the bandeja, a lazy Susan of greatest hits, and birthdays get a shower of streamers. It made The Infatuation's list of Miami's 25 best restaurants.

  13. Rank 109. Matador Room

    Latin Fusion Mexican


  14. Rank 116. Apocalypse BBQ

    Miami Barbecue

    Tucked into a South Miami-Dade golf course in a way that makes zero sense until you smell the smoke, Apocalypse BBQ is a bare-bones barbecue shop with a no-phone, no-takeout policy and a cult following to match. The menu leans Miami: cafecito ribs, brisket bacon, wild boar burgers. The wait is long, the free beer while you stand in line is a nice consolation, and the skull-shaped cornbread drizzled with hot honey is not subtle about what kind of place this is.

  15. Dark wood, banquette seating, and lighting low enough that everyone looks like they're closing a deal. Daniel's is a steakhouse on Federal Highway that plays the genre completely straight, which turns out to be exactly what Fort Lauderdale wanted. The menu is built for sharing, so bring people. A Floridian spin on oysters Rockefeller gets things moving, the steaks are cooked with care, and the corn pudding is not optional.


  16. Rank 116. Kojin 2.0

    Contemporary Japanese

    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.

  17. Long Gong is a Chinese banquet hall set so far west on SW Eighth that the road gives up and the Everglades take over. The tables are big enough to seat a dozen friends, each with a lazy susan roughly the size of a tractor tire. Dishes arrive in bubbling cauldrons kept hot over little grills, which makes a Wednesday lunch feel like someone's birthday. It sits at #23 on The Infatuation's Miami list.

  18. Giorgio Rapicavoli, the Chopped champion behind several Miami spots, set up this cozy osteria on Giralda Avenue's pedestrian strip in Coral Gables. The menu leans into Italian classics with playful detours: pasta al limone with pistachios, a tuna caprese built on local stracciatella, and a dish named after Stanley Tucci that the man himself would presumably approve of. The aperitifs get the same inventive treatment as the food.

  23. Rank 126. La Leggenda Pizzeria

    Neapolitan Pizzeria

    The open oven anchors the room on Española Way, and the dough has been cold-fermenting long enough that the crust comes out airy and a little charred at the edges, the way Naples intended. This Neapolitan pizzeria keeps buffalo mozzarella and San Marzano tomatoes on the non-negotiable list, and the Italian wine list is short enough to actually read. It ranks eleventh on 50 Top Pizza USA, so the tourists and the locals both know to show up early.

  24. Rank 127. Estiatorio Milos

    Greek Seafood

    Some regulars skip the menu entirely and head straight to the back, where the day's fish and crustaceans are laid out on packed ice like a very glamorous geology exhibit. This is a high-end Greek seafood restaurant on South Beach, the kind where whole grilled fish and lobster anchor the table and the room skews toward people who own boats. Fresh seafood arrives multiple times a week, and the kitchen largely gets out of its own way.


  25. Rank 127. Francesco Martucci Miami

    Neapolitan Pizzeria

    The wood-fired ovens at the back sit behind what regulars call "the cage," a signature touch from the Caserta-born pizzaiolo that followed him here to Wynwood. This is an upscale pizza restaurant with serious ambitions, dim lighting, designer furniture, and a wine cellar built vertically into the wall, scenic if a little unkind to whoever has to fetch the bottle. The menu runs from straightforward a la carte to a full tasting format. Ranked fifth in 50 Top Pizza USA.


  26. A glass-fronted restaurant in Coconut Grove that shares its building with a dinner concept downstairs, Krüs Kitchen operates upstairs with its own kitchen, a retail corner, and a sunny room that feels more market than dining room. The menu chases small-farm produce and organic wines, with seafood showing up often. A percentage of every sale goes to the team's nonprofit, so the prawns are doing community service.

  27. A tiny Thai tapas spot tucked into Little Havana with no reservations and a line to prove it. The menu mixes familiar standbys with Northern Thai specialties, khao soi among them, and the kitchen sends plates out faster than you can clear them, so order more than you think you need. The Michelin Guide has it listed, which goes some way toward explaining why a nook this small draws this much patience from a city not famous for waiting.

  28. The dough slow-proofs for 72 hours, which explains a lot about the thin, blistered crust on these 13-inch pies. This Michelin-selected pizzeria is tucked into the ground floor of an office building just off Lincoln Road, easy to walk past and hard to forget once you've been. The Italian-born chef imports his flour and takes the whole operation seriously enough to name one pie after a staggering pile of fresh ginger. Small room, big ambitions, South Beach prices.


  29. Rank 127. O Munaciello

    Neapolitan Pizzeria

    Neapolitan bingo tablecloths, Napoli soccer jerseys on the walls, and an owner who never steps away from the oven: this is a Neapolitan pizza spot in Miami's MiMo District that takes its identity seriously without taking itself too seriously. The dough is well-leavened with a high, airy crust, and the cooking is precise. It ranked 11th on 50 Top Pizza USA. Note that an 18% gratuity is included by default on the bill.


  30. A square bar anchors the center of the room, floor-to-ceiling glass wine cellar on one side and personalized wine lockers tucked throughout, which tells you roughly what you're in for. This is a proper steakhouse in Coral Gables, the kind that takes the Caesar salad as seriously as the ribeye. The menu roams wider than expected, from croquettes to hamachi crudo, before landing on a deep cut of steaks made entirely in-house.

    The awards


  31. Rank 133. Bistro Ocho

    Contemporary Mexican

    The amber glow and dramatic ceiling make Calle Ocho feel like another city entirely once the door closes. 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. A well-stocked bar anchors the room, and the dessert cart has the confidence to finish things with black truffle.

  33. Two restaurants got merged into one, and somehow it worked. This neighborhood spot in Palm Beach Gardens runs a kitchen-sink menu that swings from lamb croquetas and deviled eggs to smashburgers and pork ramen without apology. The seasonal focus keeps things moving, so the menu shifts often. Casual enough for a weeknight, but the cooking has enough range to hold your attention longer than the strip-mall address might suggest.

    The awards


  34. Peacock motif artwork runs through the dining room, where velvet seating in green and mustard yellow sets a warmer tone than you'd expect from a strip-mall address. This is a sit-down Indian restaurant with a cocktail program, leaning into regional flavors rather than the usual greatest-hits menu. The Kerala curried beef short rib and lamb samosas with cilantro mint chutney give you a sense of where the kitchen's attention actually goes.

    The awards


  35. Rank 133. ELYU Omakase

    Japanese

    A dozen warm wood chairs at a blonde counter in Coral Gables is where the chef's Japanese and Filipino heritage quietly collide. 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. The meal closes on miso ice cream, which sounds like a twist but feels inevitable by the time it arrives.

  37. The DJ booth is on the ground floor, the kitchen is upstairs, and somehow it all holds together. Kaori is an upscale Asian fusion restaurant and bar in Brickell where the menu is as considered as the two-story concrete-and-wood room around it. The Michelin Guide has it listed, and the crowd dresses accordingly. Dishes lean toward the rich end, with A5 beef and local fish in electric curry sharing the menu with a few genuinely clever small plates.

  38. A tuk tuk parked in the back of a Fort Lauderdale strip mall sets the tone at this no-reservations Isan Thai restaurant, where the menu runs well past the usual curry-and-pad-thai circuit. The kitchen leans into the northeastern Thai repertoire, and when they ask how spicy you want it, they mean it as a real question. The Michelin Guide has taken notice, and the crowd filing in on a weeknight suggests word has been around for a while.

  39. The beer list is the twist: this omakase bar inside the Hilton West Palm Beach was opened by a Chicago brewer, and the pairings lean into craft ales the way a traditional house leans into sake. The sushi itself tilts Western, with garnishes, sauces, and a Floridian looseness that keeps things from feeling reverent. Dark, intimate, and priced accordingly. The kind of room where wagyu hand rolls arrive with croutons fried in beef tallow, and somehow that makes complete sense.

    The awards


  40. Rank 133. Nicholson Muir

    Steakhouse

    A gourmet butcher shop and steakhouse tucked into a beachy cottage is not the obvious pairing, but here we are. The chef runs a tight, meat-forward room where ribeyes go over a wood-fire grill and a multicourse omakase hands the whole evening over to the kitchen. The Michelin Guide has taken notice. Finish with the warm cookies and crème anglaise, which lands somewhere between dessert and a dare.

The glossy tables and spotlight-lit bar draw a crowd that stays for the cocktail list and the weekend DJ. Dress like you planned to be here.

  42. A shopping-center address in Palm Beach Gardens doesn't telegraph much, but this large, contemporary restaurant runs a genuinely globe-trotting menu under a chef whose Indian background keeps surfacing alongside duck confit egg rolls, shrimp and grits, and a solid burger. The paratha alone is a reason to order bread. It stays packed most nights, which makes sense once you realize almost nothing on the menu belongs to the same cuisine as anything else.

  43. A nigiri counter tucked into a food hall in Miami's Design District, where the neighbors outside are Bulgari and Armani but the vibe inside is strictly no-ceremony. Chef Yasu Tanaka keeps the menu to nigiri sets made with fish flown in several times a week, and the whole thing moves fast enough that you can be back on the marble-floored sidewalk in under twenty minutes, which is not something most sushiyas would advertise as a selling point.


  44. A sliding door off Sushi Azabu's dining room inside the Stanton Hotel opens onto a pale Hinoki cypress counter where an omakase menu moves between hot and cold courses with a few quiet surprises along the way. Most of the fish is handpicked at Japanese markets and flown in weekly, and the itamae are the kind who actually enjoy questions. For Ocean Drive, the whole setup is notably low on attitude.

    The awards


  45. Rank 133. Torno Subito Miami

    Modern Italian

    Massimo Bottura's modern Italian restaurant sits inside The Moore, a hotel and private club in the Design District, and the room earns its keep before the food arrives, all natural light and color. The kitchen leans into South Florida with a cacio e pepe finished with candied Florida citrus zest, and the famous lemon tart gets a Key lime rewrite. Playful without being casual, and priced accordingly.

  46. Rank 150. Zuma

    Japanese

    The terrace hangs over the mouth of the Miami River where it meets Biscayne Bay, which sets the tone for everything else. This is the bar inside Zuma, the Japanese cocktail and sake operation anchored inside the Epic Hotel, done up in granite, rice paper paneling, and Indonesian wood by a Tokyo designer. The crowd arrives dressed for a scene, which is more or less the point. Sake flights and Japanese-inflected cocktails are the move.

The team comes out of a family Cuban sandwich shop nearby, which makes the leap to ropa vieja tortellini and yellowtail crudo in coconut leche de tigre feel both surprising and somehow inevitable.

  51. Rank 156. Il Pizzaiolo

    Neapolitan Pizzeria

    The ceramic-topped tables inside this South Beach pizzeria signal that someone cares about the small touches. The Neapolitan pies come out with a high, airy crust built on a long-fermented dough, and the San Marzano tomatoes and fiordilatte are the real kind. Fresh pasta and homemade desserts round out the menu, and the Italian wine list does solid work during happy hour. A pleasant outdoor terrace handles the warm nights.



  52. Rank 156. Motek

    Mediterranean

    This is a big, bright, counter-and-table Mediterranean cafe in Brickell where breakfast and lunch have stopped pretending to be separate meals. Jerusalem bagel plates, harissa chips, and a rice bowl share a menu with malawach churros, and limonana, the mint lemonade, goes with all of it. It's casual enough for shorts, and it's busy in the way that suggests half of Brickell has already decided what they're ordering.

  55. The entrance is styled as a dry cleaner, complete with hanging racks of clothes you push through to reach a gold-leaf, hand-painted dining room with a live jazz trio. This elegant Cuban-Korean-Peruvian sit-down restaurant in a strip mall off the Palmetto is from the family behind Islas Canarias, and the menu runs mojo chicken alongside lomo saltado risotto and katsu-style chicharrones.

  57. Frankie & Wally's is a Coral Gables sandwich shop where the cold cuts are shaved so thin they nearly vanish, and the shredded lettuce is there to soak up the oil and vinegar before the bread can. A Padrino has more layers of mortadella, salami, and ham than anyone will count. It's a counter-service, no-dress-code lunch, and the line knows this. Miami has plenty of hot pressed sandwiches, so this one's the cold, quiet exception.

Growing out of a Latin bakery next door, this is a counter-service spot making the case for what Miami barbecue actually looks like: ribs glazed with guava-ancho sauce, brisket rubbed with Cuban coffee, black beans baked with pineapple. The New York Times put it on their Restaurant List. The savory-sweet logic of the Latin American diaspora runs through every bite.

  62. La Viña is a Cuban restaurant in Hialeah that looks like a grandparent's den, with wood paneling and sunwashed family photos watching you eat. Bring cash, because the card reader is a rumor. Bring an appetite too, since portions are built for leftovers, and the big bottle of vinegar and peppers on the table is meant for pouring on everything. The Infatuation ranks it among Miami's top restaurants.

  67. Rank 160. Makoto

    Japanese

    Coral pinks and oversized floral motifs set the tone at this upscale Japanese restaurant inside Bal Harbour Shops, where the charcoal robata runs alongside serious sushi and sashimi. The sake list is extensive, and the cocktail side takes a few detours through mezcal and hibiscus without losing the plot. The room draws a crowd that treats shopping as a warm-up act.

  75. The larb comes one way: hot or Thai hot, and the co-owner will tell you which to order. This neighborhood Thai bistro in North Miami runs on Isan flavors, the kind that are fragrant and punchy in equal measure, and the whole fried snapper with house chile sauce has regulars coming back for it specifically. The New York Times named it among Miami's 25 best restaurants. Small room, big cooking, and Ricky himself helps out over the summer.

  76. Carbonara croquetas dusted with cured egg yolk tell you everything about what Michelle Bernstein is doing at her first restaurant with her name on the door in nearly a decade. It's a Spanish-Mediterranean dinner spot in Coral Gables where the menu traces her life, from a Jewish Argentine upbringing to time spent cooking with grandmothers across Spain, Morocco, and Hungary. The result is personal in a way that most "globally inspired" menus only pretend to be.

  79. A square pizza shop in a far-west Miami strip where the pies split the difference between Detroit, Sicilian, and grandma-style. The chef came up in fine dining before the pandemic sent him home, and Miami flavors crept into the toppings: Cuban mojo pork, Colombian hot dog vibes, summer peaches. The New York Times put it on their short list of Miami restaurants right now, which, for a slice shop this far from South Beach, is the kind of attention that fills a parking lot.

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
