The brainchild of co-owner Ricardo Ordoñez and chef/co-owner Gerardo De Negri, Botánico features a globetrotting menu in an airy indoor-outdoor setting for an upscale, approachable dining experience in Coconut Grove at CocoWalk. The extensive gin-focused cocktail menu lets guests choose from 15 gin-and-tonic botanical variations, from a green apple and thyme infusion to grape and […]
The best neighborhood bar is the one closest to home, and Bougainvillea’s, a snug, self-described old Florida tavern near the Shops at Sunset Place, is exactly that for those who live in the Greater Coral Gables/Pinecrest/Kendall triangle. Built inside a ’40s-era cottage, it’s a fine place to sip wine and contemplate humanity or to down […]
Buffalo Wild Wings was founded in 1982 when a guy from Buffalo, New York traveled to Ohio to judge an amateur figure skating competition and failed to find any wings that measured up to the ones at home. Now B-Dubs, as it likes to call itself, has spread to nearly every state in the U.S. […]
This sister location to the South Beach Burger & Beer Joint has the same rock & roll attitude. It’s a sports bar, lounge, and restaurant. This should come as no surprise, because it is the creation of Automatic Slims’ owner and a former general manager of SushiSamba. If you look at the 99 beer varieties […]
This South Beach hangout has more attitude than a Hell’s Angel. OK, perhaps that’s pushing it a little, but it’s a sports bar, lounge, and restaurant that is definitely more than just a tatted-up Mickey D’s.

Located in Wynwood, the Butcher Shop Beer Garden & Grill boasts an innovative concept – mashing a beer garden with a restaurant/butcher shop. Inside, a 24-foot meat case shows off cage-free Cornish hens, house-made sausages, chorizo, and cuts of USDA Prime Black Angus beef. Outside, a square bar serves craft beers, like Wynwood Brewing’s IPA, […]
If you’re here, it’s probably because you have a bambino of your own and you’re desperate to dine at an eatery that doesn’t make you feel like an unwelcome guest. Caf
From the outside, Cafe Floridita looks like any dilapidated downtown takeout joint – a scraggly awning and smudged display are nestled into an extremely busy coffee window where servers are more interested in speed than stellar service. The inside is nothing fancy either – a bright and clean Formica lunch counter surrounded by no-frills tables. […]
Steve Martorano is, bar none, Broward County’s most colorful restaurateur. For more than two decades, Cafe Martorano has been turning out Philadelphia-style Italian comfort food with a side of entertainment. Though its old-school menu of Italian classics – such as chicken cacciatore and pappardelle with sausage – are delicious, regulars flock to the restaurant for […]
Thai ceviche brings Key West shrimp marinated in pomelo juice perked with jÃ
This high-end steak house for the high-powered adds some carnivorous class to the downtown riverside scene. A meat locker in the middle of the dining room, where the beef is dry-aged, gives you a good idea of what’s on the menu; a 400-plus selection of wine gives you a lot of ideas about what to […]
This Italian throwback looks like a roadside stop for the likes of Mom and Pop Walton making their way from the sinful Miami to a kitschy Keys resort. Since 1958, Capri Restaurant has been doling out old school Italian favorites like fettucine alfredo ($14.59), stuffed shells ($10.99), antipasto ($10.99) and meat lover’s pizza ($10.99) and […]
