Provocateur –

Aside from the bar area, Provocateur has no roof. Take your drink and sit under the Miami Beach stars, breathe in the ocean-scented air, and meet some sexy people. This place is beautiful.

Pubbelly Noodle Bar

The quiet block of 20th Street between Purdy and West Avenues in South Beach has given aspiring restaurateurs nothing but headaches. Nowadays, folks are gathering beneath Pubbelly’s high loft ceilings, leaning against the exposed brick walls, and waiting for one of the three dozen seats or dozen barstools to open up. So how did the […]

Pubbelly Sushi

Jose Mendin, Sergio Navarro, and Andreas Schreiner were far from the first to flirt with the small-plate trend, but their presentation of Asian-inspired snacks at Pubbelly in South Beach proved so popular they’ve since opened Pubbelly Sushi next door. The formula is pretty much the same: tasty, creative food at a good value in a […]

Puerto Sagua

Puerto Sagua has been a South Beach staple since 1962, timelessly serving timeless Cuban comfort food without the frills. From ropa vieja to masitas de puerco, everything on the menu tastes like abuela just carried it to the table from her kitchen. Open daily from early morning to 11 at night, it’s the kind of […]

Pura Vida

Let’s say, for hypothetical purposes, you’re on a date with Madonna. She’s great at the whole first kiss thing, but the Material Girl is way too picky about her dinner. She won’t eat food that’s been processed or genetically modified. And don’t even think about ordering something that once lived inside a factory farm. So […]

Purdy Lounge

This off-the-beaten-path (as in off Washington) bar has the beer-hall vibe of a street corner hook-up joint with a touch of South Beach strut. An eclectic mix of music and people sway through what’s usually an elbow-room-only lounge.

Quality Meats

The family behind Quality Meats Miami, the first foray outside New York City for the Fourth Wall Restaurant Group – is something of steak-house royalty. They opened the first Smith & Wollensky in the late 1970s, and although they cashed out decades later, they couldn’t stay away from the meat-heavy format. But Quality Meats Miami […]

Quattro Gastronomia Italiana

The cuisine here is firmly rooted in the two titans of the gastronomy in the northwestern provinces of Italy: Piedmont and Lombardy. To wit: exquisitely delicious, fontina-fluffed ravioli drizzled with butter and white truffle oil. And tenderly braised veal with cipollini onions melted in vermouth. And luscious lasagna featuring spinach pasta lightly layered with beef […]

Raleigh Hotel

Although the Raleigh has been a premier party venue since the boutique resort’s 2003 remodeling, the hotel’s food has largely escaped fanfare. Well, belatedly: TAH-DAH! The restaurant’s refined fare includes a delicate ceviche of citrus/herb-marinated fresh fluke with jalepe

Rare Steakhouse

This kosher steak house features a dimly lit, elegant interior and attentive service. Meat is cooked to order on a wood-burning grill, and the traditional steak-house menu offers fresh ingredients prepared in a kosher kitchen. Appetizers include beef carpaccio ($14), an iceberg wedge ($10), and Wagyu sliders ($21). Notable main courses are sea bass ($34), […]

Raw Republic

Raw Republic is expanding to open a second location in North Miami Beach. Open to everyone and anyone who loves feeling healthy, the Open House will feature passed samples of Raw Republic’s drinks and foods; and giveaways for the first 100 customers. The brainchild of first cousins Jordan Gimelstein, Jesse Gimelstein and Zack Stein, all […]

Rec Room

If you’re a Northeastern transplant who misses going underground for a little chill time, Rec Room at the Gale is a subterrestrial treasure trove. Venture out of the South Beach sunshine and into a kitschy basement reminiscent of That 70s Show. Sip cocktails, listen to retro tunes and feel like you’re anywhere but Miami. They’re […]

Red South Beach

Red the Steakhouse serves some of the best USDA prime, age-certified Angus steaks in all of Miami. Chef Peter Vauthy chooses the finest cuts, then sears them to perfection. Vauthy puts the same care into the seafood he serves, often posting photos of giant Alaskan king crab or Maine lobsters to entice diners with his […]

Regal South Beach

Its location on the end of Lincoln Road in South Beach gives the theater an inevitable appeal. It’s a celebrity hot spot and popular among Miami Beach locals. Regal South Beach provides listening devices to their hearing impaired visitors. It also provides wheel chair seating, stadium seating, kiosks, and an extensive concession. Once you’re done […]

The Regent Cocktail Club

Inside the Gale Hotel on Collins Avenue lurks the Regent Cocktail Club, a nod to 1940s-era speakeasies amid the tourist crush of Miami Beach. This place has accomplished what every neo-bar in town has sought to do for the past five years: make the past hip again. The scene is set with dim lights, antiqued […]
