Kojin took the intimacy and inventiveness of its origins as a six-seat pop-up and expanded those elements into a full-fledged Coral Gables restaurant – all without losing its soul. Equal parts creative, hilarious, and kind, chef Pedro Mederos crafts a hyperseasonal, ever-changing menu that fuses Japanese technique with Miami roots, anchored by his now-legendary “Flanigan’s […]

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 […]
The menu hardly breaks away from budget-Italian norms, but when it comes to providing fresh, tasty, uncomplicated fare at an appealingly affordable price, La Gastronomia is as good as it gets. Thin-crust pizzas and fresh pastas don’t disappoint, but two Mediterranean fish, the orata (sea bream) and spigola (sea bass), get flown in every Wednesday […]

There’s more than just bread, too, starting with a wide assortment of pastries, from light, flaky croissants to lovely little fruit tarts. More substantial fare includes a variety of panini […]

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 Miracle Mile mainstay isn’t much different than all other Thai food spots. The décor is pleasant but unimaginative – tropical fish tanks, soft reddish lighting, and glass-top tables adorned with an orchid centerpiece. The food, likewise, is tasty but nothing overly exciting that screams out with flavor. In fact, if you’re a fan of […]
If you’re on a quest to find the best pasta in Miami, consider Luca Osteria, where Giorgio Rapicavoli channels his Italian heritage in a quaint spot named for his son. Located along the pedestrian-only stretch of Giralda Plaza, the restaurant offers the chef’s indulgent interpretations of classic dishes with the same spirit his beloved Eating […]
