Feverish Pops

On a sweaty summer day in Miami — nothing beats a popsicle. Pair it with booze and it’s even better. This is the brilliance of Feverish Pops, a Midtown Miami shop selling up boozy sweet treats (and alcohol-free, for the kiddos). And at 130 calories or less, they’re hot bod-friendly, too. Try their peanut butter […]

Fidele Restaurant

The high-end items among the more than two dozen main courses go for about $6, and that includes dishes such as steamed shrimp; golden fried conch; and “stewfish,” a fresh, whole red snapper succulently cooked in a thin, flavorful tomato broth. Five-spot offerings encompass barbecue ribs, fried chicken, vegetable stew, oxtail, and callaloo, the Caribbean […]

The Field Irish Pub & Eatery

For two decades, the Field has brought Ireland to South Florida. The bar began as a small cottage but has expanded to five dining rooms, a bar, and a big patio bar under a stately banyan tree. Here, find a fine pour of Ireland’s elixir, Guinness stout, along with Smithwick’s (pronounced “Smiddicks”) red Irish ale. […]

Fifi’s Seafood Restaurant

Owners Nelson Sanchez and his wife Mayneth (the cook, better known as Fifi) have brought a warm neighborhood seafood eatery to North Beach, and residents have responded by packing the joint nightly. They come mostly for fresh selections of the day, such as hogfish and mutton snapper. Customers choose whether they want their fish served […]

Fi’lia

Pasta dishes, wood-fired pizzas, seafood, and steaks in a modern setting at the SLS Brickell.

Finka Table & Tap

Siblings Eileen and Jonathan Andrade descend from Miami dining royalty. Their grandparents founded Islas Canarias, the shrine of Cuban comfort food revered for its croquetas. Their parents carried on that tradition. It was on the sage advice of Mom and Dad that Eileen and Jonathan opened Finka Table & Tap – employing a funky spelling […]

Finnegan’s Way

Finnegan’s calls itself an Irish pub and sports bar, and the interior portion of the restaurant fits that bill. The bulk of the room is occupied by dining tables, pool tables, and a bar boasting Guinness and a half-dozen other beers on tap. At night, the space takes on a darker pub ambiance, with much […]

Finnegan’s Road

Despite the name, this haven from the Lincoln Road fashion parade is actually more rock bar than Irish pub, and the paraphernalia on the walls suggests “football,” not “Saint Patrick.” The blue glow emanating from the long, glass-block bar is practically the only light in the place, aside from the flicker of the numerous TV […]

Fiola

Coral Gables mainstay Fiola is a beautiful fine-dining experience with classic Italian fare in Coral Gables. A spinoff of Chef Fabio Trabocchi’s Michelin-starred spot in D.C., the Coral Gables Fiola boasts a Michelin recommendation, and after one meal there curated by executive chef Daniel Ganem, it’ll be obvious why. Though anchored in rich tradition and […]

Fiorito

An Argentine-inspired gem awaits in Little Haiti, identifiable by an unmistakable welcome sign: the towering mural of soccer icon (and newly minted South Floridian) Lionel Messi above the entrance. Soccer is a major theme here – the name itself is a homage to Argentine legend Diego Maradona’s city of birth. It’s a relaxed and inviting […]

Fireman Derek’s Bake Shop

Years ago, Derek Kaplan was a real-life Miami fireman who made pies with his dad on the weekends. The pies, baked in an industrial kitchen in Wynwood and sold from a food truck and a pizzeria in Coconut Grove, were a sensation. Now Kaplan is one of Miami’s most sought-after bakers, making pies for some […]

Firito Taco & Bocce

Firito Taco is restauranteur Alfredo Patino’s third restaurant and his second on 79th Street. It’s a neighborhood he’s betting on. He moved there a few years ago and in 2014 opened the no-frills bar Tap 79, serving a slate of local suds and smart pub grub like crisp saffron risotto balls. Firito steps up with […]

A Fish Called Avalon

This sleek South Beach eatery in the refurbished Avalon Hotel combines minimalist decor with topnotch cuisine. The menu makes use of local sea bounty and is influenced by Asian and Caribbean cooking styles. Look for signature dishes such as bang bang shrimp (jumbos marinated in curry and served with mint-tinged yogurt) and the fish of […]

Fish Fish

Fish Fish in North Miami occupies the same strip mall as a bank, a dry cleaner, and a pizza place. Despite its ordinary setting, though, this seafood restaurant is beyond quirky. Take the Baja fish tacos. Tucked into warm tortillas, grilled strips of grouper are perfectly cooked and covered in the expected pico de gallo. […]

The Fish House

There are a few types of restaurants that are virtually impossible to find in Miami-Dade County, including (1) a Chinese restaurant featuring a tank filled with swimming seafood that diners can eat, not just watch, and (2) any place with genuine fried Ipswich clams. Sadly, real New England fried clams are not to be found […]
