This cheery homegrown chain filled with pop music and great service isn’t an authentic Mexican border-town taco stand where you can get cow tongue for $2. But it sure is tasty for American Tex-Mex and appropriate for folks who crave a little Southwestern sizzle while counting calories. Try the “Skinny” or “South Beach” burrito ($7.99). […]

The food community makes a lot of noise about heritage and honoring lost Indigenous pathways. Los Félix does something about it. Dedicated to the Mexican-born Milpa agriculture – a system in which heirloom corn is interplanted with other crops, such as squash and beans, in order to share resources – Los Félix uses those ingredients […]
This Hialeah-Miami Lakes hole-in-the-wall is hard to find but well worth the mission if only to try the enchiladas poblanas, which include exotic, spicy mole slathered onto three corn tortillas stuffed with chicken and crowned with Mexican cheese ($12.99). Vegetarians can substitute spinach for the chicken and top the whole thing off with sliced avocados. […]
The welcome is warm at this small, casually cowboy-cool restaurant/wine-and-beer bar. Decor and food are Southwestern-theme, and prices are superbudget. A significant natural foods component accompanies many items, with a menu of five kinds of salads. Breakfast omelets are made with free-range eggs, and tacos or burritos are available with a range of add-ons: pinon-/pepita-crusted […]
The newest restaurant at the Moxy Miami South Beach offers a taste of a modern Mexican marisquer
Mayami, located in the heart of trendy Wynwood, is the newest Mexican-themed cantina and bar to land in Miami. Brought to life by the team behind El Patio Wynwood, this 10,000-square-foot indoor/outdoor restaurant and lounge is designed to transport guests to Mexico through its breathtaking Mayan Revival-inspired architecture. Plentiful multilevel outdoor seating pairs well with […]
The sparsely decorated Mi Rinconcito is set up as though the only reason in the world that restaurants exist is for people to sit down with one another and enjoy food, drink, and company. Just like in Mexico. The fare, too, touts the stripped-down appeal of real south-of-the-border cantinas. Guests begin with complimentary thick tortilla […]

As a “quick casual” restaurant (a genre that combines fast-food speed and service with higher quality food), Atlanta-based Moe’s is a step up the food chain from most franchised eateries. It’s far from being the best Mexican-inspired quick-casual place in these parts; both Baja Fresh and Lime Fresh have fresher tortillas, more zingy salsas, and […]
Naked Taco is an ode to a love affair with Mexico and South Beach in all its tacky, oversexed glory. Plus, the tacos are delicious. A duck taco matches crisp chicharrones with fatty shredded meat that inspires you to order another. A fried fish taco offers a satisfying crunch and flaky, light meat without a […]
At this tourist-oriented Ocean Drive restaurant, the food can be pricey, except for the breakfast specials, which cost as low as $4.75. Notable dishes include the king lobster tail ($58.95 for one pound) – which is steamed and served with garlic, sage mashed potatoes, drawn butter, and seasonal fresh vegetables – and the Buffalo wings […]

Lincoln Road’s best dish is littered with bits of cow, pig, and chicken feet. It’s gently spiced with Mexican oregano and guajillo chilies. There are meaty, bouncy bits of tripe that, along with a fried egg and a basket of warm, flaky tortillas, packs luxury and modesty into the same bite. Find it within the […]
Orale is a red-, white-, and green-striped taqueria on wheels. For years, it has developed a devoted following of folks who flock to its locale on the S.W. 28th Street side of Douglas Park every Saturday and Sunday. The menu is tacos, tacos, and more tacos in their simplest, most authentic form: corn tortillas folded […]
Pancho Taco is Miami’s foodie-friendly answer to the 2 a.m. Taco Bell shakes. Set up outside Wynwood’s popular Wood Tavern in a converted station wagon, they serve up carnitas, chicken, and mushroom tacos to eager boozers. At $2 a pop, you can afford to chow down. And on Taco Tuesdays, they’re free of charge. What […]
