Super recomendado!

ZURI is a true gem in the heart of Wynwood! As soon as I stepped inside, I was transported to Morocco through the vibrant colors, intricate tiles, and VIBRANT atmosphere. The service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who made us feel like royalty. The food? Absolutely divine! We ordered a variety of dishes, including the tagine, couscous, and kebabs, and each one was more delicious than the last. The flavors were rich and bold, with a perfect blend of spices. And don’t even get me started on the cocktails - the signature “Zuri” drink was a refreshing blend of mint, ginger, and citrus. The highlight of our night was the live music and belly dancing performance - it was mesmerizing! Overall, ZURI exceeded our expectations in every way. It’s a must-visit destination for anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable dining experience in Miami.

Pastis Miami is all the French we need in Wynood. Tucked away in its own little outdoor paradise they offer a range of classic french dishes with my favorite being the Pâté de Campagne. Never settle for anything less than an evening of great company, profiteroles and martinis, ma chère. 🍸

Eleventh Street Pizza serves up two kinds of pies that both are stellar representations of their pizza genres. While a monster slice of NYC-style pep does a great job soaking up late-night drinking, the finest things here are thick Sicilian slices, big towers of dough covered with cupped pepperoni, wild maitake mushrooms with caramelized onions and a Provencal number with roasted red onions, confit garlic and pepperoncini. Time Out tip: The Japanese milk bread garlic rolls are both sweet and savory, so much so that you’ll probably want a second order for dessert.

Pasta e Basta is a cozy Italian restaurant in Midtown that you already know we love. This time we stopped by to try their new brunch menu and we’re what you need to know 👇🍝 Their menu currently offers a variety of paninis and pasta trios, perfect for sharing and for those who always want a little bit of everything 👀 We kicked off our meal with the Panino Polpette e Mozzarella, but the Trio Romano stole the show. For $69 you get this pasta tower that includes Rigatoni Carbonara, Tonnarelli Cacio e Pepe and Rigatoni Amatriciana. And the best part? You can now customize your own trio for $79. For dessert we had the Nutella crepes and the tiramisu which is always🔥 PS: If you’re brave enough to dine with a toddler they’ve got a kids menu too and a whole lot of patience ❤️
Time Out Miami
Tinta y Café You can find everything we love about Coral Gables in Tinta y Café, which also has a location in Miami Shores. It’s quirky, local and deliciously Cuban, with a cozy midcentury vibe that’s both moody and light-filled. It’s also pretty laid-back and you can grab a legit Cuban coffee during the lunch rush without having to fight several elderly gentlemen, as well as delicious sandwiches that put a new spin on classics. Note: this is not the place to treat as your satellite office; there’s no wifi, and laptops are politely declined. This is, however, the perfect place to catch up with an old friend or take a break from the hustle.

For a contemporary and adventurous dining experience that will wow the in-laws, Kojin in Coral Gables is an excellent choice. This modern American restaurant with Japanese flair boasts a menu that’s both innovative and approachable, featuring dishes that showcase a masterful blend of fun flavors and textures. Because the kitchen loves to experiment, dishes are subject to change regularly, but you can’t go wrong with the chicken sando, the namesake Caesar salad, and the short rib off the a la carte menu. If you have the budget for it, opt for one of the tastings that will treat you to a feast of the senses.

Royd’s It was a sad day when Casa Larios closed its Flagler and South Miami doors, but we’re happy to report that the King and Queen of Miami Cuban cuisine are back! Chef Quintin “Nene” and Maria Teresa Larios have taken over the kitchen at Royd’s, bringing arroz y frijoles to the Redlands. You can once again enjoy the 95-year-old chef’s masitas de puerco and pollo asado along with farm fresh batidos made with produce picked onsite. It’s all bizarrely set amidst an old Western outpost, featuring live music on Saturdays, a dog park and even a pioneertown jail.

Islas Canarias Only one restaurant can make Miamians from all corners of Dade County drive into the deepest depths of West Kendall just for croquetas, and that’s Islas Canarias. They’re so popular, the Miami-Dade commission named an entire street after them. And though this is incontestably the restaurant’s flagship dish, this establishment has been whipping out impeccable family recipes since 1977, like their succulently garlicky palomilla hidden under a bed of glazed onions. Pair your main with a side of their arroz morro cooked with pork rinds, which you can also order at the café and bakery just a mile away. No time to eat in? The 26th Street location touts a drive-through where the number one order is, you guessed it, croquetas.
Time Out Miami
Lan Pan Café: Contemporary Asian You may stumble upon this unassuming spot while shopping at Dadeland Station, but you’ll go back regardless of whether you need new shoes. It’s known for its pan-Asian mix of Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Thai and Vietnamese plates and is home to an impressive bubble tea bar. If you like your food with some heat, get the spicy Korean tofu stew with pork belly and sausage.

Dinner at Shimuja Ramen This Friday, July 26, find us slurping away at Shimuja Ramen, a beloved South Florida gem. Since opening its doors in Miami in 2018, Shimuja Ramen has quickly become a local favorite, earning the title of “Best Ramen Shop in Miami 2024” from The Miami New Times. Originally founded in Kagoshima City, Japan, in 2011, Shimuja Ramen brings its rich heritage to Miami through the culinary artistry of Chef and Owner Keiichi Maemura. Chef Maemura’s meticulous 13-hour pork-bone broth forms the heart of an extensive ramen menu that includes delicious vegetarian options. Shimuja Ramen is known for its richly flavored broths and fresh ingredients. Their standout dish, the Kagoshima Special, is a delightful combination of smoked pork belly, mixed vegetables, scallions, naruto, fried burdock, a soft-boiled egg, and thick wavy noodles. Other favorites like the Satsuma Tonkotsu and Tokyo Shoyu offer a more classic approach to authentic flavors straight from Japan. Don’t miss out on the quintessential Florida ramen either — the Key Lime, prepared with chicken slices, key lime juice, lettuce, red onion, scallion, thin straight noodles, and half soft boiled egg.

The Pool Hall, Overtown Founded in 1954, this billiards club has been restored to its former glory, paying homage to the community’s golden age of entertainment with a modern twist. To find it, all you have to do is enter Red Rooster and head up the staircase covered in pictures of the famous and everyday people of Overtown in the ’60s and ’70s. That’s when you’ll spot the speakeasy’s stylish vintage decor, a pool table and a swell cocktail menu offering vintage-inspired concoctions.

MIAMI’S BEST RESTAURANT WITH “AMBIENTE” Where the vibe is more important but the food is still good The iconic NYC staple, Pastis, expanded its presence from the Meatpacking District to the vibrant neighborhood of Wynwood. The restaurant stays true to its New York roots, offering the same menu filled with classic Parisian bistro-style dishes and an incredible ambiance that won’t make you feel like you’re in Miami. You’re heading here for a chic lunch or dinner and sitting at their gorgeous outdoor patio decorated with ceiling fans, red patio umbrellas, and twinkly lights. We’d start with some drinks (of course), if you’re a spritz person looking to relax, start your meal with their St. Tropez Spritz made with St. Germain, lemon, aperitif, sparkling wine, and strawberries. But if you’ve had a long day (or week) then kick off your meal with a tiny Le Petit Pickle martini. As for the food, we like to start with a few hors d’oeuvres for the table. We usually go for the Tuna Carpaccio with lemon vinaigrette, Escargots with garlic-parsley butter, Onion Soup, and Crispy Artichokes with garlic aioli. Moving on to the entrées we love their Chicken Paillard with almonds and picholine olives, and we always love to get an order of the Moules Frites with white wine and garlic for the table (don’t forget to dip the bread in the sauce). If you still have a little room, the grand finale is the airy Profiteroles, delicately filled with velvety smooth vanilla ice cream, and generously drizzled with warm chocolate sauce.

Strange Beast is one of Miami’s best late-night karaoke spots can be found deep in West Kendall. You can get a pint of beer, a pizza and a side of sing-along tunes. Every Thursday, people wind up dancing at this brew pub and pizzeria—and, as the team there says, “All it takes is one Bad Bunny or Marc Anthony song and it’s overrrr!” Best of all, there are usually four mics on deck, so no one has to share when your inner Posh Spice comes out.
