Latin American Cafeteria

Housed in an old Arby’s with a huge U-shape counter, this is the chain’s original outlet, and here it perfectly combines quantity and quality. Your choices are varied no matter if you’re sitting at the counter, the outside dining area, or just picking up something at the ventanita. Hams hang overhead, waiting to become part […]

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 […]

Loba

Literary accents can be seen (and read) all over the place at Loba. For instance, a vegetarian entr

Los Fuegos by Francis Mallmann

Within the luxurious confines of the Faena Hotel, orange flames lick a multifunctional grill designed and built in Texas. Oak and charcoal fuel the plancha, parrilla, and smoker. It’s also the source of scalding ash for rescoldo, a process in which vegetables are gently roasted in the fire’s refuse. There’s also an open pit where […]

Los Perros

This Colombian hole in the wall knows that in the middle of the night, when the alcohol has run dry or the munchies kick in, people don’t mind paying South Beach prices for a hot dog, potatoes, and a Coke, even if they are in West Dade. That’s not to say Los Perros doesn’t earn […]

Los Perros Aqui

After a night of drunken debauchery at your club of choice, greasy eats are the only thing standing between you and an epic hangover. So give your bod something to soak up the booze, and bite into a dog at Los Perros Aqui. This Colombian fast food joint serves up high-piled hot dogs, hefty burgers, […]

Macita’s Restaurant & Bakery

While flashier Colombian eateries abound — especially the fast-food style joints keeping drunks happily munching on hot dogs — the truly authentic, homey spots are hard to find. That’s why Colombians and fans of Latin cuisine in general make the trek south to Macita’s, on the southern end of South Dixie Highway in Cutler Bay. […]

Madroño Restaurant

Located on West Flagler Street in Sweetwater (AKA Little Nicaragua) , it boasts traditional dishes that have made Madroño the go-to Nicaraguan restaurant in South Florida. Its menu has been built from family recipes perfected over generations, and everything is reasonably priced. […]

My Ceviche

My Ceviche brings in whole fish from local waters and prepares them on the premises – that’s really what makes the ceviche and other items here better than those at most other seafood places. Whether you select shrimp, octopus, or the local fish du jour, and whether you go medium or large, and whether you […]

Ricnon Argentino

Walk into Rincon Argentino with any doubts about the restaurant’s philosophy and they’ll quickly melt away. The reason: the gigantic fire pit in the middle of the dining room that’s usually covered with dripping racks of sausage, beef, and sometimes a whole pig. Argentine cuisine is all about the carne, baby. An Argentine barbecue special […]

Varanda’s Brasil Cafe

Aziza Yuself’s cafe is small, the decor low-key, the clientele overwhelmingly Brazilian,the best sign possible for a Brazilian restaurant! The food is all tasty, but try the excellent muqueca de peixe, a firm fish simmered in coconut sauce, or the feijoada of black beans and pork.
