Situated directly beneath a Metromover stop, this homey little Cuban diner is busy at all times of day. In the wee hours of the morning, you can catch a whiff of strong coffee floating out of the large ventanilla, as patrons gather beneath the grubby blue awning to chat about the day’s headlines before dispersing […]
The food at most bookstore cafés usually encourages more fear and loathing than great expectations, but the cute little Café at Books & Books is actually a casual, inexpensive, unpretentious garden of earthly delights. The menu covers all the expected soup-salad-sandwich bases but also offers a few more adventurous options. Try the guava-glazed pork tenderloin […]
The sushi bar tenders a first-rate array of maki rolls, nigiri sushi, sashimi, and temaki (cones); even the California roll, usually crammed with crappy surimi, is laden with luscious lumps of blue crab. The sake selection rocks as well, from aged, sherrylike Hanahato Kijoshu to fruity Harushika Daiginjo. The elegant interior, replete with loud, splashy […]

Claude Postel and Corentin Finot, who opened Buena Vista Deli in 2010, have returned to the neighborhood with Café Crème. Similar to the flagship in North Miami, the 500-square-foot spot, which opened in May 2018, is stocked with Nutella beignets, chocolate croissants, small cakes, and sandwiches.

The inside is nothing fancy either – a bright and clean Formica lunch counter surrounded by no-frills tables. […]
Between Cuban cantinero Julio Cabrera’s daiquiris and chef Michelle Bernstein’s fare, there’s something uniquely Miami about Cafe La Trova. Bernstein’s comfort food is all-around tempting; she works to meet the foodie fantasies of her guests, whether they’re in search of elaborate dishes or a traditional tres leches dessert. Cabrera’s cantineros take pride in the art […]

One day, 23rd Street might resemble Ocean Drive, but for now, it’s a dark street on a dark block on a dark side of town. This bar and lounge, the Wynwood Cafe District’s first, is an oasis. The venue includes a spacious outdoor area with couches under glowstick-lit tree branches, a goth-like candlelit interior, an […]
Funk is the word at Caffe Vialetto. No, not the music genre, but rather a signature dessert that folks just can’t get enough of. Think tiramisu spruced up with some Heath Bar crunch. What’s more, the treat arrives in a pool of blueberry sauce and condensed milk. There are plenty of other decadent items to […]
Miami isn’t exactly brimming with great Thai restaurants, which is partly why Cake Thai Kitchen is such a novelty. At the front of the tiny eatery, crammed into a derelict Biscayne Boulevard strip mall, stands a buffet station that offers lemongrass-rubbed roasted chicken alongside roasted rice studded with crisp shallots and fried pork. Sometimes it’s […]
