Because little English is spoken at either branch of this pizzeria, it’s hard for an Anglo to get an explanation of what makes the place’s specialty, Cuban pizza, different from other pizzas.

You haven’t lived in Miami until you’ve spent an afternoon sucking down a cocktail while gazing at a cotton-candy sunset at Monty’s. The Coconut Grove institution has seen a half-century of Miamians flock to the dockside restaurant for happy hour and tropical vistas. But no trip to Monty’s is complete without a round of “Pain […]

One of the most delightful Mediterranean restaurants in Miami is Motek, where you can enjoy brunch all day. The menu is so tempting that it’s hard to choose – creamy hummus, kebabs, an Israeli salad, avocado toast – but the “don’t miss” is Motek’s shakshuka, a tangy dish of baked eggs, tomatoes, and peppers served […]
Restaurateur Tony Gallo and chef Pietro Vardeu have drawn crowds to Sardinia Enoteca in Sunset Harbour since 2006. Now the pair offers cuisine from another part of Italy. Apulia is a region in the southeast, the heel of the boot. In fact, it’s the nation’s top producer of olive oil and the birthplace of burrata. […]
