Though the name is an acronym (Green Living Animals Matter), the word applies to everything at this cozy, chic spot, from the glitzy gold flatware to the periwinkle-hued swag for sale. Everything has the touch of Janette Miller, cofounder and designer extraordinaire. From snacks and soups to […]

The menu at Glass & Vine eschews plate sizes and is split into four sections: Snacks, Garden, Sea, and Land. To start, opt for the barbecued spiced nuts that recently included cashews and walnuts tossed in a meringue spiked with garlic and onion powder, paprika, brown sugar, and complete seasoning. Left out to dry, the […]

Sometimes, changing the menu simply isn’t enough – you need to change the entire concept. At least that’s what Michael Sullivan did when he closed his popular Brickell gastropub, OTC, and opened Golden Fig in its place. Named for an indigenous Florida tree, Golden Fig serves dinner and brunch in an intimate setting best described […]
This neighborhood joint in The Grove offers 70 different beers, wine by the glass, gourmet nibbles, and the kind of daily happy hour, karaoke, and open mic scene that keeps the locals coming back day after day. The sub tropical vibe is bolstered by a reggae heavy, multi-Latin, local indie music leaning.
There are ostensibly other reasons besides beer to visit Gordon Biersch: The room is sleekly attractive, with a shiny brewery behind glass walls. The staff is accommodating and the largely professional clientele energetic – perhaps an understatement on Friday afternoons, when the Brickell office buildings empty out. And the 320-seat restaurant (including 90 patio seats) […]

At its entrance, this Wynwood institution boasts “air conditioning, cold beer, and cocktails.” Indeed, those are the basics for a successful Miami bar, but Gramps goes the extra mile and then some – from a robust roster of live music, DJs, and drag bingo to some damn fine pizza and more.

If compared with a real health-conscious eatery like, say, one that doesn’t sell Chupa Chups across from the vitamin counter, Feelgood’s would not fare so well. Yet while Granny doesn’t delve deeply into Moosewood territory, it does offer up a wide variety of fresh, tasty lunches. Sandwiches are especially rewarding, and there are plenty to […]
At Grapeland Water Park, also known as Black Beard’s Beach, your little ones can get their wet and wild pillaging on like nowhere else.

An encyclopedic wine list and suave, professional service add to the enjoyment of meats cooked on the grill or the […]
