No animal has suffered more abuse at the hands of corporate and incompetent amateur cooks than the chicken. La Granja, though, gives this wildly popular, often-abused bird the respect it’s due, carefully roasting it until the skin turns bronze and crispy and the meat tender and juicy. The Kendall outpost of this chain of Peruvian-style […]
Miami-Dade - South in Miami New Times
Showing 199 - 220 of 387This place is simply one of the best restaurants for inexpensive, mouthwatering, and authentic Mexican food. The service is usually on the poor side, sometimes even downright rude, so take advantage of the drive-thru. Yes, Pasadita has a drive-thru. Use it. Take those fresh, delectable tacos and burritos to go and enjoy them in the […]
La Quebradita offers a low-key ambiance that practically reeks of being in Mexico. The homespun space has an especially authentic feel during the daytime, when sunlight streams through wooden blinds onto vividly colored tablecloths; there’s also a little outdoor dining patio in front. All the familiar Mexican comestibles are plated here, all at south-of-the-border prices. […]
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 […]
You load up the car with friends to head to the Keys. You’ve packed your bathing suit, your water wings and a little bit (or a lot) of weed. But halfway down the road, you realize, you forgot the BOOZE. Thank God almighty for Last Chance Bar & Package. This Homestead stand-by is the last […]
Housed in an old Arby’s with a huge U-shape counter, this is the chain’s original outlet, and here it perfectly combines quantity and quality. Your choices are varied no matter if you’re sitting at the counter, the outside dining area, or just picking up something at the ventanita. Hams hang overhead, waiting to become part […]
Though it has everything you’d expect from a Irish sports bar-three pool tables, more than 30 TVs, a full kitchen and bar and plenty of jocks, Little Hoolie’s distinguishes itself from other south Miami-Dade bars by serving as one of the only legitimate live music venues in the neighborhood surrounding the Falls. There is a […]
This Colombian hole in the wall knows that in the middle of the night, when the alcohol has run dry or the munchies kick in, people don’t mind paying South Beach prices for a hot dog, potatoes, and a Coke, even if they are in West Dade. That’s not to say Los Perros doesn’t earn […]
After a night of drunken debauchery at your club of choice, greasy eats are the only thing standing between you and an epic hangover. So give your bod something to soak up the booze, and bite into a dog at Los Perros Aqui. This Colombian fast food joint serves up high-piled hot dogs, hefty burgers, […]
Like a parable, it’s as if a thunderous voice from above spoke to a lost (and most likely hungry) tribe wandering in the brash wilderness of south Miami-Dade and said: “You must build a restaurant, serve the food of your people there, and make it extra tasty!” Because at Lots of Lox it’s all there: […]
Sometimes, when you’re too wiped to whip up a quinoa salad or broccoli bake – all that’ll do instead is a good mess of chicken lo mein ($6.15) and crab rangoon ($5.55), served up in old-school white takeout containers with a fortune cookie on the side. When one of those cravings strikes, Lotus House is […]
While flashier Colombian eateries abound — especially the fast-food style joints keeping drunks happily munching on hot dogs — the truly authentic, homey spots are hard to find. That’s why Colombians and fans of Latin cuisine in general make the trek south to Macita’s, on the southern end of South Dixie Highway in Cutler Bay. […]
