Eating here might seem like a blessed event. First, the owners christened this breakfast, lunch, and dinner café their “little miracle” in gold letters above the bar. And second, they have become quite popular for one particular dessert: wedding cake. Miracle Mile shoppers long ago discovered this great stopping point for a slice of the […]

If you’ve been to Paris, Rome, or New York, you might have been enchanted by a visit to a local pastry shop. Rows upon rows of delicate, beautiful confections are on display. When you finally choose your one delicious item, it is carefully boxed and secured with a bow. B Bistro + Bakery captures the […]
At Bistro Cassis in midtown Miami, the focus is on adhering to culinary traditions and offering authentic French fare. From the menu to the decor, New York-based Restar Hospitality Group is trying to mimic a typical French brasserie experience — right down to the massive mural of the Paris Metro. It starts with the scrumptious […]
Midtown’s Brasserie Azur is incredibly good-looking. But rest assured you won’t find any of the pomp associated with its South Beach sister party spot, Villa Azur. Sure, both eateries serve French fare with an Italian twist by executive chef Edwin Mallet, but Brasserie Azur is more casual and affordable. Here, you’ll find plenty of wines […]

Homey café with a Parisian sidewalk feel, serving pastries, salads, and bistro favorites.
Café Maurice enjoyed a successful 11-year run in Los Angeles before relocating to South Beach — more specifically, to the spot held by longtime local bistro L’Entrecote de Paris. Owners David Meunier, Jean Michel Collet, and executive chef Maurice Azoulay have left L’Entrecote’s laminated bar and back-room mural and mirrors intact. The rest of the […]
Georges Eric Farge’s frenetic personality is familiar to anyone who has had the pleasure of dining at Le Bouchon du Grove, where he held court as chef, partner, and dining room trouvère. His infectious spirit nowadays permeates his own eponymous restaurant. George’s keeps menu items to a manageable size: five starters, three salads, three pizzas, […]

The accouterments of a classic brasserie setting are in place: tin ceiling, mosaic-tile floor, wood, mirrors, tightly packed tables topped with white butcher paper, and open French doors leading to a breezy outside patio. The menu mimics that of a real bistro, too, although one with severely limited range. Diners are privy to the standard […]

French food cravings aren’t so easy to quash in Miami, where you’re much more likely to find fritas than frites. But Miami Beach’s Le Gusto Bistro and their French owners are the real deal. Here, you can find an amazing croque monsieur (or madame), a ham and butter baguette sandwich, mussels “au gratin”, onion soup […]

The menu includes more than 75 natural wines, from bubbles to whites to reds to rosés and skin-contact wines. You’ll also find low-alcohol cocktails, as well as a seasonal rotation of small plates.
