The sister restaurant to the NYC locale. It’s an authentic feeling French bistro housed in the hoity-toity Bal Harbour shops. Opt for moules frites.
A triple threat: restaurant, sports bar, lounge. Order a gourmet burger (or design your own) and a boozy milk shake (from the soda fountain). The bar serves till late and the upstairs lounge has a chill, un-South Beach vibe.
Snack on favorites like fajitas, burritos, tacos, and quesadillas. Chase the spice with a Michelada, margarita, or Mexican soda. The space has an anti-chain restaurant look: billowing curtains, warm lighting, and dark wood floors.
The third outpost (Paris, Hong Kong) of the restaurant favored by the fashion elite nestles inside The Webster boutique. Debate Balenciaga vs. Lanvin while splurging on caviar service.
Over-the-top fine dining’s for suckers. Jonathan Eismann’s neat little pizzeria and mozzarella parlor has all the lip-smacking, Roman-style thin-crust you crave — not to mention the cheapest booze around.
An Aventura restaurant that’s not in a mall? How innovative! Get neighborly at this low-key enoteca. Pair rustic Italian dishes with the stellar wine list (more than 100 bottles).
Louisiana specialties (gumbo, crawfish etouffee, jambalaya) along with sides like three potato hash and dirty rice. Plus world-class New Orleans music playing live in the lounge.
The Standard’s poolside lounge is right on Biscayne Bay, a perfect spot to sip a mojito at the end of the day or grab lunch by the pool.
Escape the megachains that make up the Grove’s culinary scene at this classy, white-tablecloth establishment. The food — from the Castilla y Leon region — is noteworthy, as is the wine list.
Expect French fare with a side of attitude at this see-and-seen South of Fifth hotspot known for its sunset view and sexy Euro clientele.
