Preston’s in the Loews Hotel is one of the few restaurants along the beach with an oceanfront view. Breakfast is a real feast here, with eggs benedict Cubano on tostada bread and chorizo; omelets; and an oatmeal brûlée among the early-bird treats.

There’s much more than beef at this inventive New American steakhouse. Guests can also dine happily on creative entrées featuring poultry or on cold-water oysters and other pristine raw-bar selections.
