Aguacates

The self-serve-at-a-counter setup speaks of fast food, as do menu selections such as burritos, chimichangas, enchiladas, quesadillas, and so forth. But the food is tastier, more authentic, and much fresher – prepared from scratch daily – than anything you could ring up at BajaTacoFreshMexBell. Some menu items are better than others. Patrons with hearty appetites […]

Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza

We’d argue that Anthony’s has the best pizza this side of Italy – the blackened, bubbly crust is so authentic you can taste ancient culinary history in it. That’s thanks to a coal-fired brick oven that cooks not only outstanding pies ($15.95 for a 12-inch, $18.95 for an 18-inch), topped with everything from broccoli rabe […]

The Bar at the Yard

Though it’s just one part of a larger complex, the Bar at the Doral Yard has its own personality. The large wooden bar serves as both the focal point of the Doral Yard and a gathering place for locals to chill on plush, oversized barstools. The cocktails are well-thought-out and tap into local flavors like […]

Basilico Ristorante

This family bistro adds a Latin touch to all manner of Italian cuisine. Seafoods are fresh and snappily prepared in simple fashion, and pastas are superb. If you can’t choose, get the best of both worlds with the signature seafood linguine – perfectly cooked pasta heaped with mussels, clams, shrimp, and squid. Finish up with […]

BLT Prime

At BLT Prime are all the trappings of old money. Heavy, high-backed leather seats encircle lacquered dark-wood tables. Recessed ceilings reflect stark-white walls, while square dark-wood columns help break up the monotony. The best place to sit is on the patio’s wicker chairs overlooking the golf course. There’s also the circular bar where at lunchtime […]

Brisa De Espana

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), […]

Bruschetta & Co.

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, […]

Bubble Cafe & Tea Lounge

In a hidden corner of a far-flung strip mall, Manny Sulbaran serves a thoughtful, concise list of fare that won’t send you away in a coma. Perhaps you know Sulbaran. He was once chef de cuisine at Michael Schwartz’s Harry’s Pizzeria in the Design District. It may seem odd to find him all the way […]

Buffalo Wild Wings

Buffalo Wild Wings was founded in 1982 when a guy from Buffalo, New York traveled to Ohio to judge an amateur figure skating competition and failed to find any wings that measured up to the ones at home. Now B-Dubs, as it likes to call itself, has spread to nearly every state in the U.S. […]

Bulla Gastrobar

The Spanish gastrobar Bulla (pronounced boo-yah) is younger, cooler, and better than ever. At the freestanding marble bar under the mahogany marquee, it’s always time for a drink. Cocktails are delicious and fussy, infused with cardamom and currant syrup, lemongrass, and cucumber purée. Venture to the dining room, where chalkboards listing Spanish dishes swaddle blond-wood […]
