Miami-Dade - Central in Miami New Times
Showing 947 - 968 of 2020Kojin took the intimacy and inventiveness of its origins as a six-seat pop-up and expanded those elements into a full-fledged Coral Gables restaurant – all without losing its soul. Equal parts creative, hilarious, and kind, chef Pedro Mederos crafts a hyperseasonal, ever-changing menu that fuses Japanese technique with Miami roots, anchored by his now-legendary “Flanigan’s […]
KokoRiko ain’t McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, or Starbucks. It is, more or less, a Colombian KFC. The space is brightly lit, and the small, simple menu offers family meals. Choices include quarter-chicken platters (fried or rotisserie white or dark meat or chicken tenders) with a side of white rice and one of many sides (ranging from […]
In the late 1990s and early 2000s, Miami Beach’s China Grill was the place to see and be seen. Paparazzi swarmed the restaurant for snaps of the city’s heavy hitters like Sly Stallone and other former Star Island residents. Fast-forward to today, and China Grill honcho Jeffrey Chodorow partnered with David Grutman, the mind behind […]
The edgier, younger sibling of midtown’s Kraken Crudo is the small raw bar Kraken Lab, located inside Upper Buena Vista’s retail and dining complex.

In addition to […]

Here Vargas, a veteran of stints at Michelin-starred Osteria Francescana in Italy and Eleven Madison Park in New York, taps into his global travels and local farm […]
Kush, the beer and burger joint, can best be described as Lokal’s scrappy little brother. Coconut Grove’s Lokal is the more polished older sibling, while Kush has a younger, edgier feel. But there’s no doubt, whatsoever, that the two restaurants share the same DNA. Kush’s offerings may be small, but there’s something for everyone, with […]
TEMPORARILY CLOSED A sizable portion of the menu at Kyu in Wynwood is prepared on the restaurant’s wood-fired grill using a combination of Asian and American barbecue techniques. The meat is simply prepared with Japanese sea salt and black shichimi pepper and then smoked for 12 to 14 hours. It arrives divided into thick slices […]
Everyone knows La Camaronera as the iconic Little Havana seafood joint founded by a family of Cuban fishermen. For more than 40 years, the restaurant’s owners, the Garcia brothers, have been cooking up their famous favorites – including grouper soup, shrimp empanadas, conch fritters, and a fresh fish sandwich – along with dozens of other […]
La Carreta doesn’t serve the most gourmet Cuban food in Miami, but with multiple locations, it’s a convenient place to get the classics. The Little Havana location is a stand-alone building guarded by a colorful rooster statue. The menu is an extensive list of Cuban dishes such as ropa vieja ($8.95), picadillo ($6.50), and palomilla […]

Perhaps more to […]
The reason La Dorada has been a mainstay of Giralda Avenue for so many a year is the availability and quality of exceptional seafood from Spain. Thrice weekly fish are flown from the ports of Malaga, including merluza (hake), urta (red-band bream), lubina (striped sea bass), cuttlefish (calamarilike), and dorada (royal sea bream). Golden, greaseless […]
