A storefront off South Dixie Highway near a McDonald’s is not where you’d expect to get a taste of Paris. But Delices de France does its best to prove that location isn’t everything. In fact, with a smattering of tables overlooking a blacktop parking lot, the bakery confidently announces that when you indulge in its […]
Picture it. Cuban women with pens in their hair running back and forth behind windows filled with pastelitos and bocadito party trays that make you salivate. As you attempt to push through the crowd of hungry patrons, you rip a ticket from a number machine on the counter, and then someone shouts, “
Fooq’s is part French, part Italian, part Persian, but not at all confused. Persian and Italian together don’t seem to make sense, but under the care of restaurateur David Foulquier, it’s all you need.Read our full review of Fooq’s.
Frenchie’s is a petite Coral Gables restaurant where the menu is squiggled in different colors on a chalkboard that fills one wall. At this 50-seat spot, some porcelain dishes are white; others are adorned with blue florals, gray patterns, and gold trim. Many spoons have light-pink handles; others are just stainless steel. Black-and-white floor tiles, […]
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, […]

Looking at the stainless-steel, retro-American diner, one might expect the usual menu of meatloaf, milkshakes, burgers, and fries. Granted, the neon-lit letters spelling out “gourmet” before “diner” should give hint that something is afoot inside — but French country cooking? That’s pretty surprising. What’s even more shocking is just how tasty and affordably priced the […]
Juvia sits on the penthouse level of the Herzog & de Meuron-designed building at 1111 Lincoln Rd. like a sparkling jewel set in concrete. After a brief elevator ride up, guests step into an open-air dining room with vertical gardens designed by Patrick Blanc and much of the rest of the space defined by nature. […]
Beyond its croquetas and fritas, Hialeah isn’t much lauded for culinary excellence. For that reason alone, you might not expect to see La Fresa Francesa here. You could almost hear the collective gasp when La Fresa Francesa opened near a canal that slices diagonally along the city’s southern edge. But Sandy Sanchez and Benoit Rabiat, […]

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 […]
Miami is known for many things, but great bread is not among them, at least if you haven’t tried La Provence’s hearty, rustic artisanal breads. There’s more than just bread, too, starting with a wide assortment of pastries, from light, flaky croissants to lovely little fruit tarts. More substantial fare includes a variety of panini […]

Much like great fashion houses, the great chefs of the world create restaurants that keep their legacies alive. Although Joël Robuchon died in 2018, his name lives on at this Design District gem that marries the interactive ambiance of Japanese sushi counters with the casual spirit of Spain’s tapas bars and Robuchon’s take on modern […]
Le Bouchon Du Grove has been a hidden gem in the Cocowalk area since 1994. In an ever-changing city, this establishment has remained dedicated to challenging the misconceptions of French cuisine. Unfussy and devoid of attitude, this quaint bistro, inspired by the city of Lyon, serves food that’s hearty, authentic, and deeply flavorful. At once […]
If you’ve ever been lucky enough to find a $20 bill on the sidewalk, you’ll have the same feeling of good fortune after dining at this charming and blessedly inexpensive little neighborhood restaurant on the train wreck that’s upper Biscayne Boulevard. The short menu is more or less French, featuring excellent (and lighter than usual) […]
