If you wanna run with the sharp shooting big dogs – Sharp Shooter’s Billiards is the place to get off that proverbial porch. A locals-only Kendall stand-by, you’ll find plenty of tables, copious quantities of beer – and lots of cigarette smoke. But the fumes are worth enduring to cue up at the closest thing […]

This Kendall sushi joint always draws a crowd, no doubt because of its magnificent food, enchanting service, and homey atmosphere. Unagi, California rolls, shrimp, salmon, and tuna are all beautifully prepared. Teriyaki, katsu, stir fry, sukiyaki, and tempura dinners all are also excellent. And you have a choice between traditional American seating downstairs or Japanese-style […]
Buffets can be iffy — just how long has that food been sitting there? What, exactly, is in that sauce? There are none of those concerns, though, at Shinju, which operates locations in South Miami-Dade as well as Broward and Palm Beach counties. The brisk turnover and high attention to quality make this place a […]
Shiver’s is an institution – that’s what they call you when you’ve been in business for 57 years. The requisite weathered, log cabin/picnic table-and-bench decor remains in place, with obligatory cattle horns and horseshoes on the walls. Chicken, pork, and beef go into two hickory-fueled smokers (some of the meats for up to 12 hours) […]
It’s been almost 50 years since “Shorty” Allen opened his first log-cabin-style barbecue restaurant. Though the business changed hands in 1980, the hickory-smoked chicken and ribs, creamy coleslaw, and homemade baked beans remain the same.

It’s not difficult to find a Thai restaurant on Sunset Drive. Sometimes it seems as if there’s one on every block east of SW 117th Avenue. It is difficult, however, to find Thai food as flavorful as what you’ll get at Siam Palace. If you’re not sure where to start, try the combination appetizer. You’ll […]

At Homestead’s Skydive Miami, their jump masters (many of whom are movie stunt jumpers) will bring you down to earth in the most adrenaline-pumping way possible. Complete with parachute […]

The difference between Westernized and typical Chinese cuisine is crystal clear at South Garden Chinese, which serves both. One side of the menu offers Americanized goodies such as crab Rangoon, egg drop soup, and General Tso’s chicken. Flip the menu over and do as the Chinese do, with more complex traditional dishes. The crisp fried […]
Like its namesake, Marie Waite – the 1920s South Florida rum runner who outran the Coast Guard smuggling booze across the Florida Straits – this West Kendall brewery is a South Florida legend. Amid the dozens of breweries that have opened in the past several years, Spanish Marie manages to stand out. Here, co-owners Alby […]

Sports Grill serves, by far, the meatiest and tastiest wings in town. Don’t believe us? Try ordering a batch of 16 ($12.25) or 25 pieces ($18.99) just before a big game. Sure, the folks answering the phone at this Kendall institution won’t immediately laugh and hang up on you, but they’ll hold back the chuckles […]
