Ahnvee Restaurant and Lounge Miami

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.

Au Pied de Cochon Miami

The French brasserie complete with raw bar stays open late night. The space is practically a replica of the Paris original (same designer). Nosh Kobe carpaccio after hitting the clubs.

Red the Steakhouse Miami

Champagne cocktails and porterhouse dreams. The Cleveland import serves meat done right. Decor is a modern take on steakhouse chic (plush banquettes, mahogany bar); service is fabulous.

Joe's Stone Crab Miami

The name says it all: stone crabs. Open since 1921 (or sometime way back then), it’s the go-to for the seasonal delicacy. Those in the know skip the long lines and go next door to Joe’s Take Away.

Nikki Beach Miami

The Sunday brunch is a scene worth checking out. White beds. Sandy beaches. House music. Scantily clad ladies and gents. It’s everything you’ve read. Plus, ya know, food.

Ishq Miami

The battle for Miami’s best Indian rages on. This contender may be pricey (location, location, location), but folks rave about the naans, curries, and samosas. Service may be slow but, hey, it’s South Beach.
