If you’ve got a sweet tooth the size of a T-Rex incisor, Amore Gelato is bound to make your list of suppliers. A Brickell staple, they’ve delivered sweet treats to next-door neighbor Perricone’s for years, where guests have raved about the creamy, true-to-source flavors. Notable options include dulce de leche, coconut and pistachio, but the […]
Anacapri sits pretty on a Ponce de Leon Boulevard corner in Coral Gables. The restaurant’s unfinished beige walls and balconies with draping foliage boast a rustic Italian feel. Inside, lights are dim and table linens are crisp and white. Italian music lingers. Everything screams vintage wine and overpriced dishes. But at Anacapri, fine dining is […]
This place offers fresh, uncomplicated Italian food in a pleasant environment and at family-friendly prices, a simple plan that has been filling the restaurant’s 75 seats with the fannies of appreciative locals. Pastas don’t exactly wow the palate but are as well prepared as those you’ll find at our most popular moderately priced Italian joints […]
Be sure to ask for the small “Chinese” menu – it yields authentic goodies such as kung pao frogs’ legs. Steamed salmon fillet and Maine lobster – plus dishes such as stir-fried rice noodles stocked with seafood such as shrimp, scallops, squid, and lobster – are big enough for four to share, as is the […]

A one-size fits all Latin experience, this Aventura outpost is a mash up of Cuban, Argentinean and Mexican flavors. Barrio Latino is a popular lunch spot thanks to efficient service, hearty portions and a convenient locale. Don’t fill up on their buttery tableside bread — regulars know to save room for favorites like their empanadas, […]
There are certain foods that are hard to grow tired of, hence the plethora of pizza options in every American city. While Bellante’s Pizza & Pasta selection might not impress NY’s finest – it sure as hell makes the rest of us giddy. The notion of bottomless eats is the happy place for many a […]
Featuring walls of pastel mint green minimally adorned with brightly colored sconces, Bengal’s contemporary two-level space is lovely. Bollywood music videos summon sound and fury on a high-def TV set. The food, unfortunately, is decidedly low-def – the flavors of a vegetable biryani or chicken tandoori don’t leap on the tongue like a tiger, but […]
This budget-chic bistro in a dreary Kendall strip mall is the kind of restaurant that is the backbone of any serious dining town — a neighborhood place that pays upscale attention to food and service but charges only midscale prices. The menu here is mostly classic bistro; if you want stir-fried butterfly lips, you’ll have […]
At Bistro Cassis in midtown Miami, the focus is on adhering to culinary traditions and offering authentic French fare. From the menu to the decor, New York-based Restar Hospitality Group is trying to mimic a typical French brasserie experience — right down to the massive mural of the Paris Metro. It starts with the scrumptious […]
Bizcaya’s meu encompasses two soups (including a decent gazpacho with crabmeat), two salads (citrus lobster and blackened tuna Nicoise), five appetizers (try the succulent scallops with polenta cake and lemon-truffle vinaigrette), and a number of entr

Not fancy but fast Cuban food, and lots of it. Buy by the portion for a quick, ready-made meal, or in bulk by the pound for take-out and catering services. Typically good roast suckling pig with onions, ropa vieja, picadillo, yuca with garlic, tamales, sweet plantains, and well-seasoned black beans and rice. Self-service. Take-out. Breakfast, […]
At Bocce Bar in midtown, executive chef Timon Balloo doesn’t want to dazzle you. He cooks things simply – braising duck legs in stock before plunging them into a pan with orecchiette, squash, and Parmesan. They are finished in a sauce that’s thick enough to coat a wooden spoon and tastes of sage and thyme. […]
The restaurant is divided into two rooms with floor-to-ceiling glass windows fronting them, and outdoor tables sprawled on an elevated patio overlook Biscayne Boulevard. The entrance room features a colorful bar stocked with lots of cacha
Located in a mini-market that sells European ingredients and packaged foods, this no-frills eatery offers good-but-not-great Spanish food and hit-or-miss service. It is most popular as a takeout spot. A daily changing lunch menu consists of a potaje such as cream of broccoli or lentils and an assortment of appetizers such as chistorras fritas ($6), […]

This outstanding eatery just beyond the Doral Country Club delivers a cuisine one would expect in one of those hard-to-find, five-table family restaurants. From traditional antipasti (dressed just enough to add style but not so much to become silly) and homemade pastas to fresh seafood dishes, Bruschetta covers every Italian base, including its bread namesake, […]
The sharp-tongued Howie Kleinberg might be Miami’s most successful Top Chef alum. Following his love-him-or-hate-him appearance on the grueling reality show, Kleinberg returned to his home turf – North Miami – to feed his people the food he loves. That means hulking platters of pulled pork and beef brisket, along with classic sides such as […]
The strength of this Mex café is the mom-and-pop appeal. Begin with a complimentary basket of crisp yellow corn chips and zesty tomato salsa (a small dish of smooth, mellow guacamole is worth the two-dollar surcharge). A recommended starter is salbutes: small rounds of thick, fried tortillas topped with shredded chicken and a small dice […]
Located in the Breakwater Hotel — noted for its famous facade (a favorite among filmmakers), notorious for its dilapidated rooms — this sidewalk eatery seems little different from the other clone cafes that line Ocean Drive. Display of plastic-covered petrified food? Check. Aggressive shill out front? Check. Vaguely “Mediterranean” menu of pasta, paella, and pizza, […]
