March was especially fruitful, with eateries and bars opening that ranged from authentic Neapolitan pizza to a celebrity-studded import from Spain to a new take on the humble paleta.
Here are five new Miami spots to try this weekend.

The same care goes into ‘O Munaciello’s pizzas. The restaurant, which recently opened at 6425 Biscayne Blvd. in Miami’s MiMo District, is the second of its kind. The original, however, requires an overnight flight to reach.

Paletas have gotten much attention in Miami over the years. The once-humble Mexican ice pop has been boozed up, given the gourmet treatment, and even mixed into margaritas. Gilbert Arismendi, however, thought the paleta hadn’t reached its full potential. The former software project manager and his partners kicked it up a notch when they created their own versions of the treat and opened Morelia Gourmet Paletas in Coral Gables.
