Lil Greenhouse Grill

Karim Bryant and Nicole Gates own this charming little spot in Overtown that offers modern takes on classic soul-food dishes. Bryant, who oversees the kitchen, has a solid foundation built on stints at Capital Grille, Prime 112, and BLT Prime in Doral. With a background in radio, Gates has the task of spreading the word […]

Lime Fresh Mexican Grill

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). […]

Lincoln’s Beard Brewing Co.

When John Falco opened Lincoln’s Beard in May 2016, he chose a spot near Westchester rather than compete with established brewers in Wynwood and Doral. Today, Falco’s brewery stands as a community hub in Miami’s Bird Road Art District. It’s an industrial space where you can always find a cold pint served with a hefty […]

Lips

You don’t go to Fort Lauderdale’s Lips to eat but to be eaten: The drag queens and divas who patrol the crowd have a sharp eye for a sweet little morsel like you to chew on, so wear your thickest skin. Dinner shows, with a full three-course menu, are at 8:15 or 8:30 Tuesday through […]

Lique Miami

Making waves in North Miami Beach, Lique lets guests get a glimpse of the luxe life via South of France flair and South Beach vibes. It doesn’t get much better than this. But then it does. Oh, hello, yachts. Take a seat on the open deck overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway, and you’ll see lots of […]

Little Brazil

Brazil, in almost every conceivable way, is the opposite of little. The largest country in South America has an exploding economy and an oversize world presence set to get bigger with the World Cup and the Olympics heading there in the next few years. The excellent Brasile

Little Bread Cuban Sandwich Co.

At Little Bread, Bread + Butter chef and owner Alberto Cabrera takes the Cuban sandwich to new heights. The turkey for his Elena Ruz is basted for hours in a Malta glaze that gives the bird a shiny, crackly shell. Cuban sandwiches are graced with pork belly prepared in the French rillette style and combined […]

Little Havana Restaurant

North Miami might not be where most people look for Cuban fare, but that’s where you’ll find the family-owned Little Havana Restaurant. Despite the somewhat boring decor reminiscent of a banquet hall, this casual eatery is lively and bustling with activity during peak hours at lunch and dinner. The large menu offers reasonably priced Cuban […]

Little Hoolie’s Sports Bar & Grill

Though it has everything you’d expect from a Irish sports bar-three pool tables, more than 30 TVs, a full kitchen and bar and plenty of jocks, Little Hoolie’s distinguishes itself from other south Miami-Dade bars by serving as one of the only legitimate live music venues in the neighborhood surrounding the Falls. There is a […]

Little Lotus

Secreted within downtown Miami’s International Jewelry Center is an izakaya (that’s the term for the smallish, Japanese-style pubs littered throughout Tokyo) offering a surprisingly large menu of sushi and tapas-style plates that capture the essence of an authentic Asian kitchen. The small restaurant has only 30 seats, half of which line the outside hallway, plus […]

Little Saigon

Long one of the bright lights in Miami’s quality-challenged Asian culinary scene, this cramped, no-frills eatery still turns out creditable Vietnamese cuisine. Cha gio are excellent, and blue crabs in a tart-sweet tamarind sauce are worth the amount of effort it takes to extract the minuscule nuggets of crabmeat. Be advised: Little Saigon takes cash […]

Lo de Lea

There are more than a few impressive Argentinian options in Miami, but not all are run with friendly service, local delivery and reasonable prices, and you’ve got yourself a winner. We haven’t even mentioned their mouthwatering, meaty menu, featuring items like grilled half-chicken with mash and escarole, crispy salmon with bok choy or orecchiette with […]
