When Tobacco Road closed in 2014, more than a century of Miami drinking history went poof. The “Road” had many lives, serving as a brothel, a bakery, and a place where every major blues artist played (as did a ton of minor ones). So it only makes sense that this legend got a new life, […]
Restaurant in Miami New Times
Showing 2311 - 2332 of 2475With a Spanish name meaning “everything cold,” Todo Frio is a traditional neighborhood ice cream parlor with a Hispanic twist. It’s located feet away from Douglas Park, in an unassuming shopping center on 37th Avenue. An overwhelming scent of sugar and cotton candy fills the small shop. Targeted toward children, it’s painted in primary colors […]
You feel it on your way home from work: the craving, the wanting, the needing. Not only can this counter-service Japanese restaurant satisfy your hunger for raw fish, seaweed salad, and even deep-fried cheesecake, but also it can do it in a split second via the drive-thru, which is left over from when the building […]
Tongue & Cheek, a relaxed dining room in South Beach’s South of Fifth neighborhood, belongs to Jamie DeRosa and Michael Reginbogin — both former employees of the Dream South Beach Hotel, where DeRosa cooked under celebrity chef Geoffrey Zakarian at the restaurant Tudor House. But DeRosa’s current dining room is unlike his previous refined setting. […]
A decade of service on South Beach and still on the cutting edge – literally. Sashimi is tender fare – soft and supple. Enjoy a plethora of the raw fish as chirashi: tuna, salmon, yellowtail, octopus, shrimp, and others lying atop vinegared sushi rice and seaweed. Sushi is topnotch, as is eel sauced with sweet […]
With its sterile, glassed-in views of Biscayne Bay on one side and the kitchen on the other – and nary a hint of Chinese tchotchkes anywhere – the setting of this upscale old-timer (opened in 1991) seems better suited to slick rubber-chicken fundraising dinners than to ethnic eats. But Chan’s is one of Miami’s best […]
Toro Toro, located on the left side of the InterContinental Miami’s hotel lobby, features sleek wooden fixtures; an expansive, elegant bar; and a handsome dining room. The cuisine includes dishes within the scope of pan-Latin fare. Desserts include carrot cake, comprising a quenelle of house-made spicy carrot ancho sorbet with tart cream-cheese foam, and a […]
Toscana Divino unites all things Tuscan – food, wine, fashion, art – inside a 150-seat Brickell eatery.

If you’ve got 20 bucks, you can dine like royalty at this tiny, ’70s-inspired eatery. Tran An owner Jon Nguyen’s 18-seat restaurant offers Vietnamese comfort food: a hearty pho, a tangy papaya salad, bánh mì sandwiches, and a chicken-and-rice dish are all satisfying and affordable. The pho’s broth is rich, heaped with slices of chicken […]
Located in Aventura Mall, this super busy restaurant is loud, noisy, and always packed with kids, shoppers, and overspill from next door would-be diners at Cheesecake Factory that don’t want to wait two hours for a table. Lucky for them, the Italian fare here is better than mall food should be. Diners can start with […]
When you’ve had it up to here with lasagna, tiramisu, and all the usual Italian culinary suspects, this cheery, bustling trattoria offers some pleasant alternatives. Vitello tonnato, the classic pairing of unctuous tuna mayonnaise and cold roasted veal, is nicely done and a perfect summertime dish. The same goes for above-average gnocchi in a creamy, […]
