Miami, you just keep on growing.

This month, more than a dozen restaurants opened across South Florida, from Taylor Swift-approved Vitolo to José Andrés' third outpost of Zaytinya.

November saw two notable closings, as well. Miami chef José Mendín's Patio Isola, an offshoot of Miami Beach's Casa Isola that opened in the former La Placita space in July 2022, is no more. Gone too is the popular downtown coffee shop and lunch spot All Day.

Here's a look at what's open, what's closed, and what's coming next to Miami's culinary scene.
