Latin Burger 2

The brainchild of Jim Heins and Food Network host and cookbook author Ingrid Hoffman, this black and hot-pink truck roves the streets of Miami serving guilt-inducing street food. Its Latin macho burger ($6.25) – a double patty of chorizo, chuck, and sirloin blend topped with caramelized onions, jalape

Le Chick Miami

Here, chicken makes up a large part of the menu, along with side dishes such as onion rings and five kinds of fries. In addition to rotisserie chicken, there is a rotating burger of the month and fried chicken. Le Chick’s version is brined overnight for 12 hours and then soaked in buttermilk before being […]

Le Jardinier

Located in the Design District, Le Jardinier is the southern outpost of Alain Verzeroli’s first solo restaurant (also called Le Jardinier), which opened in 2019 in a luxury building in midtown Manhattan and quickly earned a Michelin star. For two decades, Verzeroli worked alongside the great Joël Robuchon, helping the French chef assemble menus and […]

Lemoni Cafe

The Design District gets a fresh slap of inexpensive goodness thanks to Lemoni Cafe and its smoothies, veggie-packed salads, and word-of-mouth-hyped paninis. While you mooch the free Wi-Fi, munch on paninis such as the Lemoni Supremo, with marinated chicken, pesto, Brie, and cherry tomatoes, or the Mediterraneo, with spinach, olives, tomatoes, and chicken melded together […]

But it sure is tasty for American Tex-Mex and appropriate for folks who crave a little Southwestern sizzle while counting calories. Try the “Skinny” or “South Beach” burrito ($7.99). […]

Lost & Found Saloon

The welcome is warm at this small, casually cowboy-cool restaurant/wine-and-beer bar. Decor and food are Southwestern-theme, and prices are superbudget. A significant natural foods component accompanies many items, with a menu of five kinds of salads. Breakfast omelets are made with free-range eggs, and tacos or burritos are available with a range of add-ons: pinon-/pepita-crusted […]

Lotus House Thrift Chic Boutique

It’s easy to turn a blind eye to those Miamians who are struggling a bit more than the rest of us. But helping others is good for the soul, so get out of your brand-new condo and put some effort into helping those in need. After all, Miami isn’t exactly known as a charitable city, […]

The Lunchbox

Lunchboxes open one of two ways: brimming with epic delights or filled with disappointing carrot sticks and soggy sandwiches you hope to pawn off on an unsuspecting classmate. The Lunchbox, however, puts a new spin on this old standard. It’s Miami’s first zero-waste eatery. A spicy tom kai gai soup could accompany a chicken paillard […]
