Fritas Domino La Original

Fritas Domino is Miami’s original frita shop. The restaurant, which was first located on Calle Ocho, introduced the Magic City to the Cuban hamburger in 1962. Now, the latest location serves its French fry-filled goodness on 67th Street. At Fritas Domino, patties are zesty. Frites are pale, oleaginous, and linear. While it’s since changed location, […]

Fritay Fried Pork & Chicken

Inside a cozy storefront on NW Seventh Avenue in North Miami, the fryers are always snapping, crackling, and popping. The family-owned Haitian restaurant serves deliciously sinful wings, drumsticks, and breasts that are fried to crisp perfection. The meat is juicy and tender every time, whether you request a $2.49 two-piece meal or a ten-piece family […]

Fuego y Mar

Fuego y Mar, located at The Ritz-Carlton South Beach, offers a distinctively Miami Beach-inspired setting for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and brunch. The influence of coastal Latin America is weaved throughout the dining experience, drawing from Mexican, Cuban, Venezuelan, and Colombian cuisine. Here, guests and local can enjoy casual communal dining with uninterrupted views of the […]

Funky Buddha Brewery

When it arrived on the scene in 2010, Funky Buddha Brewery was among the first Florida breweries to introduce food-infused beers to the suds-guzzling masses. And not just any food – an entire library of pop-culture fare. Fan favorites include a range of inspiration, from desserts and sandwiches to cocktails and spirits – even an […]

Futuro Supermarket Cafeteria

We live in a city that regularly sees temperatures above 90 degrees. Fortunately, Miami’s climate is also ripe for growing awesome produce of all kinds. That means there is no reason to settle for a made-from-concentrate, prepackaged juice box when you can have the real thing. Futuro Supermarket is like a blast from the past […]

Gables Diner

With sleek wood-paneled walls and mood lighting (including candles on the tables), this diner bears little visual resemblance to the homespun, railroad-car classic model. But traditional diner dishes — lightened up but just as all American as the originals — are indeed offered here, as well as more modern fare. Comfort-food fans will find satisfaction […]

Gabose Korean BBQ

Navigating Gabose’s expansive, meandering menu, with its myriad Korean titles, food photos, and strange-sounding offerings, is only slightly less challenging than pronouncing the place’s name. Rather than be intimidated, just read the descriptions, point to the numbers, and await your authentic, delectable, spunky, sparkling-fresh, and well-priced Korean cuisine. An accessible entry point is tangsuyuk – […]

Gaijin Izakaya by Cake

Though it’s unclear why Phuket “Cake” Thongsodchareondee stepped away from his eponymous Wynwood Thai spot, his reemergence nearby in the space that once housed the Gang Miami gave some Miami foodies a sense of relief. Here the young chef has pivoted to Japanese cuisine, which he honed while working at Makoto in the Bal Harbour […]

Garcia’s Seafood Grille & Fish Market

Garcia’s Seafood Grille & Fish Market has been serving up a winning combination of fresh fish dishes and family hospitality for nearly 60 years. In-the-know Miamians flock to this indoor/outdoor restaurant overlooking the Miami River – overseen these days by brothers Luis Garcia and Esteban Garcia Jr., whose parents founded the local institution in 1966 […]

Garden of Eatin

Most people’s understanding of Rastafarianism is centered around Bob Marley and weed-smoking. But the series of daily practices of consciousness that comprise this syncretic religion are far more complex. Take Ital, the vegetarian diet to promote life energy. You can check it out at Garden of Eatin’, a tiny restaurant that will make you feel […]

Gardner’s Market

When Whole Foods seems too overwhelming or impersonal, head to cozy market-bistro Gardner’s Market to pick up imported beluga and a latte or a scone. The gourmet shop offers prepared salads, a hot foods section, and a station where sandwiches and burgers ($6.99) are made to-order. The staff doesn’t seem to fit the image that […]

GastroPod

What is a GastroPod? It’s been a food truck in the form of a 1962 Airstream trailer and a stall in Aventura Mall. Sometimes it’s a pop-up dinner or brunch at an art gallery. Lately it’s a pair of shipping containers converted to mobile kitchens in the heart of Wynwood. Whatever form it takes, one […]

GastroPod Mobile Gourmet

Jeremiah Bullfrog ain’t no Mister Softee. He ain’t no Dairy Queen either. Yet his GastroPod foodmobile, a shiny silver converted ’62 Airstream trailer, attracts streams of enthusiastic followers wherever it goes – as if he’s the Pied Piper of foodies or something. He ain’t that either, but the Miami native is a damn seriously talented […]
