Palace Bar & Restaurant

Stop by the Palace for a very South Beach experience. The gay-friendly restaurant and bar, which has been going strong for more than three decades, stages drag shows every evening and drag brunches on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Otherwise, know that the venue contains two bars: one indoors and designed for nighttime use, the […]

Pane & Vino

The brawny pastaiolo‘s presence in the window display of Pane & Vino serves two purposes: to draw in mesmerized passersby and to assure customers that the South Beach restaurant isn’t kidding about pastas being homemade. Although several tables are set up outside, it’s best to avoid the uncomfortable chairs and noise of Washington Avenue and […]

Panizza Bistro

Panizza, located on a relatively quiet block of Lincoln Road, is a small bistro known for its Latin “comfort” food and comfortable surroundings. Menu items show Italian, Spanish, and Argentine influences in the empanadas, savory pies, and tortillas with ingredients that include potato, spinach, and onion. The paninis include steak, chicken Milanese, and veggie burgers, […]

Panther Coffee

It’s been more than a decade since Joel and Leticia Pollock started serving cold-brew coffee from a bicycle at Miami food truck roundups, ushering in the city’s craft coffee movement. Today, at Panther’s flagship location in Wynwood (other outlets are scattered around the city and Miami Beach), beans sourced from small farms in Nicaragua, Brazil, […]

Pao by Paul Qui

At Pao, which boasts a gold domed ceiling and $6 million gilded unicorn made by Damien Hirst, the prices match the accolades. Unfortunately, the precision of the cooking doesn’t match the prices. Yet scattered throughout the menu are a few items worth sampling. Pao is ambitious, with an arsenal of show-stopping flavors many will never […]

Paon Eatery

Here, on the oblong Bay Harbor Islands, where people rarely glance left and right as they make their way to or from the beach, Paon Eatery’s Federico Cassino has assembled a menu of hearty bistro fare offered at far more reasonable prices than what can be found at the nearby Bal Harbour Shops. It comes […]

Pasha’s

In the mid-90s, while studying at Harvard Business School, Pasha’s CEO Antonio Ellek came up with the concept of a healthful Mediterranean fast-food restaurant. And in 2003, with the help of classmate Nicolas Cortes, the first location for this homegrown chain sprouted on Lincoln Road. Since then, seven other Pash’s have blossomed and flourished throughout […]

Patpong Road

In Miami Beach, where too many clubs for the glamor set pretentiously serve Goose and Bulls for 20 bucks a pop, finding a bar that doesn’t take itself too seriously is as relieving as snagging an ocean breeze on a muggy July afternoon. Patpong Road, brought to you by 50 Eggs, the people behind restaurants […]

Pepper’s Authentic Mexican

Pepper’s is a clean, modern, fast-food Mex establishment with a few indoor tables and outdoor seating set away from Washington Avenue – you almost feel as if you’re dining alfresco on a featureless street in Tijuana. The burrito is a bulky, San Francisco-style wrap whose soft flour tortilla is stuffed with fresh Mex-style rice, refried […]

Philippe by Philippe Chow

Clad in white elegance and black lacquer floors, this room is as debonair as one might expect from a Chinese restaurant named Philippe. The space soars with supper-club sophistication, central focal points being a circular bar and a large window that offers peeks into the big, bright, spotless kitchen. The fare is fresh and tasty, […]

Pilikia by the Pool

No money for a vacation this year? Cheer up, you live next to the vacation capital of the world — Miami Beach. Instead of a vacation, break out the swimsuit and sunscreen, and head over to Pilikia by the Pool for a cheap day in South Beach. Located poolside at the Art Deco South Seas […]
