The chivito, a Uruguayan sandwich, is often referred to as “a heart attack on a plate.” El Rey’s basic chivito Canadiense contains steak, ham, cheese, fried eggs, roasted red peppers, tomato, lettuce, and mayonnaise. It’s served between two halves of a big baguette. To counteract any possible health-food taint from the lettuce and tomatoes, the […]
Hidden inside Palm Court, you’ll find Ella Cafe, a collaboration between Michael Schwartz and his daughter Ella. Here you can try avocado toast, Greek yogurt, salads, sandwiches, and juices in a bright, industrial space. But beneath the outpost’s seasonal menu is something even sweeter: a rotating doughnut special. Depending on the day, expect flavors such […]
The Embassy in Buena Vista oozes a carefree vibe. Late-night dining pairs with a varied schedule of live music. On any given evening, there might be rock ‘n’ roll, Cuban son, or jams performed by chef-owner Alan Hughes himself. There is no stage; musicians strum guitars in a tight corner of the dining room. Across […]
A simple sandwich shop at the confluence where Wynwood, Midtown Miami, and Edgewater meet, Enriqueta’s remains a holdout in the race to turn Miami into a sea of condominiums and Lululemons. The restaurant is one of the most democratic in the city, its clientele a steady stream of construction workers, galleristas, tourists, and dwellers of […]

With an eerie ambiance of dark yellow lights and red carpet, La Paloma reminds me of that bar in The Shining, where the bartender is actually a ghost. Try the White Russian.

No day in Miami would be complete without the smell of caf
Lee & Marie’s Cakery Company is situated in a lovely setting, but it lacks an obvious essential: a large-scale oven. The locale relies on an off-site production facility in Wynwood that sends foods to South Beach twice a day. But a sampling of pastries on two occasions revealed a lack of freshness: Baked doughnuts were […]
Mason, created by Beaker & Gray owner Brian Nasajon, is an antidote to Miami’s trite fusion cuisine and over-the-top displays of foie gras. Here, comfort, quality, and convenience come wrapped in a sandwich. Mason is a 2,500-square-foot art deco-inspired space where just about everything on the menu, from pretzel-dough knots to maple ham and fish […]
The big, roomy 160-seat restaurant is more deli than bagel shop – specifically a New York neighborhood “kosher-style” deli. It serves soups, salads, Hebrew National hot dogs, and all manner of smoked fish and deli meats; matzoh brei; challah French toast; delectably sweet, vanilla-infused homemade blintzes; thick wedges of noodle pudding made the old-fashioned way […]

The menu spans breakfast favorites like café con leche French […]
Nube, a quaint shop near Coral Gables City Hall, serves coffee hailing from small farms in places such as Brazil and Ethiopia, and roasted by Panther Coffee, a local independent.

Stop by the Palace for a very South Beach experience. The gay-friendly restaurant and bar, which has been going strong for more than three decades, stages drag shows every evening and drag brunches on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Otherwise, know that the venue contains two bars: one indoors and designed for nighttime use, the […]
When the Pubbelly Boys open restaurants, they call them concepts. Their strategies, though, are not about location. It’s not d
