South Beach in Miami New Times
Showing 595 - 616 of 675OK, so the Rice Krispies bars are really good, but there are other good reasons to visit this bakery/café, one being the “bake” part. Buy some house-made artisan bread (including sourdough, multigrain, marble-swirl rye, whole wheat, French country, and a more-crusty-than-usual challah, plus bagels, croissants, and baguettes). To start the morning, try the Norwegian smoked […]

To paraphrase the poet Ogden Nash: A wonderful place is the Pelican – its plates hold more food than your belly can. Grab a seat on the outdoor patio that spills onto Ocean Drive and indulge in an overflowing Mediterranean salad composed of shrimp, arugula, radicchio, corn, hearts of palm, and fresh mozzarella dressed in […]
A rooftop bar with poolside seats and an oceanfront view. Head for the gold elevators through the lobby at the Perry. Wasabi peas are the bar snacks, and tropical drinks are a specialty. But you can get a variety of liquors any way you like. Locals congregate here for weekend debauchery.
There is no getting around it: The Tides is expensive. But it’s worth the money. Seafood is the main catch, a smart selection including loup de mer, dorade, Florida yellowtail snapper, and wild salmon served grilled, roasted, or steamed, accompanied only by olive oil and sea salts (which is all they need). Pastas are priced […]

The cuisine includes lots of items in quotation marks: […]
