Henry Hané’s Jattö is one of the most interesting restaurants in Wynwood. The restaurant cites the cuisines of Peru, Colombia, and Spain as influences, but Hané and chef Aleric “AJ” Constantin have constructed a menu that offers comfort food like suckling pig BBQ tips and patatas bravas with a chef-driven touch. The cocktail menu is as interesting, with plays on […]
Spanish in Miami New Times

Both in the restaurant or bar area, enjoy a wine, cava, and beer list filled with specialty spanish beverages.
The reason La Dorada has been a mainstay of Giralda Avenue for so many a year is the availability and quality of exceptional seafood from Spain. Thrice weekly fish are flown from the ports of Malaga, including merluza (hake), urta (red-band bream), lubina (striped sea bass), cuttlefish (calamarilike), and dorada (royal sea bream). Golden, greaseless […]
Upon entering La Taberna Giralda, it appears to be more wine shop than dining establishment, as wooden crates and cardboard cases filled with mostly South American bottles take up the restaurant’s entranceway. Like stage props, they provide the requisite setting and mood – that of a quaintly cluttered, Old World bistro. The atmosphere, in fact, […]
Big portions, tasty fare, inexpensive prices — is it any wonder the lines are so long? This Cuban-Spanish café features tapas such as chickpeas sautéed with chorizo, and cold seafood marinated in a vinaigrette dressing. Vaca frita and palomilla are excellent entrées; daily specials tend to be more inventive — fried beef brains, sautéed frog’s […]

This little gem in a strip mall at SW Fifth Avenue and Eighth Street takes the edge off the day with nice wine, good tapas, and a relaxed atmosphere. A zarzuela de mariscos includes bay scallops and a broth that’s beautifully light, properly salted, and delightfully tasty. The squid, mussels, and other parts of the […]
Whether you’re looking for a relaxing afternoon cocktail or a place to share a late-night glass of wine and some tapas, this is a rooftop retreat that’s perfect for both. Level 6, brought to us by the creative group behind South Florida establishments Akira Back, Amal, and Byblos, is one of the few neighborhood venues […]
The most authentic Spanish omelet in Miami, surely. This modest restaurant also features other fine Iberian fare, from snapper in green sauce to paella. The menu doesn’t vary, so what you see is what you get – every day. As for desserts, there is flan or natilla in standard recipes.
At Perfecto, a gastrobar on Brickell Avenue, the mood is celebratory and the food is a modern riff on Catalan classics. With its vertiginous ceiling, modern art, and orchids so massive they appear to have been genetically modified, the industrial-style room is stunning. It’s the brainchild of Oscar Manresa, a chef-restaurateur from Barcelona with 20 […]
Consider Sra. Martinez the Andalusian alter ego of Michy’s – same big flavors crammed onto “small plates,” albeit with a heavier anchor in the Mediterranean. And think of the décor as a Seville-style makeover of what was formerly Domo Japonese – a lovely, lofty space for dining. Many of the foods here are just like […]
The original Tapas & Tintos still holds ground as one of the most popular spots catering to locals on Española Way. This charming barcito serves giant pitchers of homemade sangria and offers an immense menu of small plates that capitalize on traditional Spanish flavors. A tasty trio of croquetas includes spinach, potato, and a wonderfully […]
Locals flock to this eatery for creative and distinctive food and drinks in a relaxed and rustic setting. The Federal’s distinctiveness cannot be overstated: You won’t see crispy omassum tripe with barbecue powder and maple-syrup dipping sauce; jar-o-duck with candied sweet potatoes and charred marshmallow fluff; or Buffalo-style pig wings just anywhere. The so-called wings […]
With Tropezón, Lost Boy cofounders Randy Alonso and Chris Hudnall (cf. Fox’s Lounge, Brother’s Keeper) have brought the art of the gin and tonic to Miami Beach’s Española Way. The Andalusian-themed tapas and gin bar, tucked inside the Esmé Miami Beach hotel, proves that a G&T is more than ice, booze, and soda. In Spain, […]
Whether you’re into almejas en salsa verde (steamed clams in green sauce), empanadas de atún (tuna empanadas), or gazpacho Andaluz (a spicy version of the classic chilled soup), Xixón Spanish Restaurant is one of the few places in Miami that serves northern Spanish fare. The restaurant opened in 2001 as a market but now includes […]
