La Sandwicherie Brickell

Since this French-owned eatery began selling sandwiches, salads, smoothies, and shakes in 1988, a crowd has lingered along the lengthy counter at the flagship location that extends up an alley off 14th Street between Washington and Collins Avenues in South Beach. The food is fine, but the funky alfresco charm accounts for a large part […]

LA Sweets

Like a long-term relationship that’s lost all pretense at passion, you’re probably so over cupcakes. Maple bacon, nutella, beer-infused … you’ve seen all their tricks, and they just don’t arouse you anymore. But one bite of a cupcake from LA Sweets, and it’ll feel like the first time all over again. This Brickell outpost serves […]

La Taberna Giralda

Upon entering La Taberna Giralda, it appears to be more wine shop than dining establishment, as wooden crates and cardboard cases filled with mostly South American bottles take up the restaurant’s entranceway. Like stage props, they provide the requisite setting and mood – that of a quaintly cluttered, Old World bistro. The atmosphere, in fact, […]

Lagniappe

This indoor/outdoor hodgepodge of a place is named for a small gift traditionally bestowed upon a customer by a merchant, and the moniker couldn’t be more fitting. At this serve-yourself Midtown bar, you pick your craft beer, cheese, and wine, pay at the counter, and then plant yourself in a lawn chair beneath twinkling lights. […]

Laguna Seafood Restaurant

You’d think more restaurants in this food capital of the Caribbean would know how to fry a green plantain. Yet all too often, they’re too big, too thickly sliced, not ripe enough. And they’re never hot; you find yourself staring at a flavorless, lukewarm pile of plantain pucks. The ones at Laguna always come out […]

Laid Fresh

Lingering at this egg-centric spot by Kyu’s Steven Haigh and Michael Lewis is made easy. While Laid Fresh’s friendly counter-service team crafts your mouthwatering meal of fresh sandwiches, salads, gluten-free options, and beignets, a colorful communal Lego table keeps you entertained. But the fun doesn’t stop there. This all-day breakfast and brunch spot in Wynwood […]

Lan Pan-Asian Cafe

Yup, it’s that same old cliché: a cute little café in a big ol’ shopping mall. Or rather, in a big ol’ parking garage. Located on the ground floor of Dadeland Station, next to a Romero Britto sculpture, Lan’s pan-Asian fare is the perfect antidote to the surrounding chain stores. Items range from sushi to […]

Las Culebrinas

Big portions, tasty fare, inexpensive prices — is it any wonder the lines are so long? This Cuban-Spanish café features tapas such as chickpeas sautéed with chorizo, and cold seafood marinated in a vinaigrette dressing. Vaca frita and palomilla are excellent entrées; daily specials tend to be more inventive — fried beef brains, sautéed frog’s […]
