Jimmy’s Eastside Diner has the casual, been-there-forever feel of a neighborhood hangout. The green-and-brown color scheme is oddly appealing, and the place looks bright and friendly – diner ambiance minus any dinginess. If Jimmy’s looks familiar, it’s probably because the diner was used as one of the filming locations in Barry Jenkins’ Oscar-winning 2016 film […]

Jimmy’z Kitchen’s famous mofongo (fried plantains mashed with garlic) has become a foodie rite of passage for many a Miamian. If it’s available, get it – they don’t serve it every day. Otherwise, the Miami Beach outpost of this lauded local chain serves up lunchtime favorites with a Latin flair. Jerked chicken breast salad, Cubano […]
Jimmy’z 50-seat interior, viewable from the street through floor-to-ceiling windows, beckons with an urban-industrial appeal electrified by orange walls and other bright highlights. Because the ambiance is so cheery and sleek, and because diners are required to order at the counter, the place resembles a next-generation fast-food chain. But the cuisine here is cooked slowly […]
Not all of us are lucky enough to have a good Chinese take-out restaurant near home. This is probably why West Kendall residents thank the goddess Fortuna that Jin-Jin is in their hood. The place isn’t gourmet or trendy. It simply offers the best Chinese take-out in South Miami-Dade. In fact, there is no means […]

Early each morning, when most of us are still asleep, the crew of Joanna’s Marketplace is in the kitchen, slicing, dicing, grilling, poaching, broiling, and sauteeing all manner of fresh comestibles. Little bits of smoked ham hocks are being put aside for split-pea soup; tomatoes are simmering into a bisque. Cooks debone chicken breasts that […]
You know Joe’s. The history. The gloriously sweet stone crabs. And, in season, the notoriously long wait for a table. But often overlooked is the consistently good food, the truly professional service, the free parking, the surprising value (except the crabs, which are an extravagance wherever you find them), and the dining room’s stately ambiance. […]
Forget about waiting two hours to get a table Joe’s Stone Crab. Savvy insiders know to head next door to Joe’s Take Away, where the stone crabs are packed on ice and the lines are much shorter. Eat in or take your claws (market price) to go. The bustling market features a smattering of tables […]
The staff at Joey’s knows the names of its regular customers and their favorite dishes and signature wines. The servers still recommend the specials, mostly because they change daily and are always worth trying. It’s that kind of place. Joey’s, established in 2008, was one of the few restaurants to inhabit Wynwood long before the […]
For three decades, John Martin’s Irish Pub was the place to grab a pint of Guinness in Coral Gables. The restaurant and pub, opened in 1989 by friends Martin Lynch and John Clarke, was renowned for its cheery atmosphere, live music, and an annual blowout St. Patrick’s Day celebration. The beloved watering hole closed in […]

There are New York delicatessens that don’t go as hard as Josh’s Deli. It’s amazing to see thick cuts of house-cured pastrami gleaming with moisture and capped with ribbons of fat. The Angus brisket is cured for ten days, smoked, and then steamed; it evokes a smoky flavor (with a hint of sweetness) that puts […]
Food inspires passion. Just look at what happened to that Marie Antoinette lady when she got all creative with her cake. But few forms of grub inspire as much as the hamburger. She is, after all, a fickle mistress. Handled carelessly, the burger can be disastrous. But crafted by careful and practiced hands, it can […]

Sip a rosy-hued passion punch made with orange, strawberry, mango, pineapple, lime, passionfruit, cucumber and apple.

Miami’s gone juicing crazy, and South Beach’s Jugofresh has led the charge. This uber-healthy outpost has become the go-to spot for 305’ers looking to adopt a less-risky lifestyle. They create freshly-made organic, raw, vegan, and cold-pressed juices with ingredients like coconut water, almond butter, mango, kale, mint, dandelion parsley, spirulina, agave, cayenne and all kinds […]
For months, the cold-pressed juice brand has been developing its food menu. In Wynwood, you can grab a quick readymade breakfast or lunch from the fridge. There are pumpkin spice bowls with cashews, white buckwheat, pumpkin powder, and dates; texicano salads with romaine, avocado, walnuts, cashews, and tomatoes; Indonesian kelp noodles in a creamy spicy […]

Though “local” is all the rage now, there’s still something to be said for food un-injected with high-fructose corn syrup, AKA “having undergone little or no processing and containing no chemical additives,” AKA, “natural.” There’s also a lot to be said for any natural-foods restaurant that features meat in addition to requisite hippie staples such […]
If you wanna stay tanned, toned and beach ready a full 365, you can’t be making meals out of Burger King all too often. And this is food to feed a South Florida bod. Juice & Java doles out fresh juices, salads, pastas and lots of health-conscious options for beachgoing vegetarians and vegans. Fresh fruit […]
