You want fried okra with that shake?

The Sunny Isles resto has had several menu incarnations while retaining its New American cuisine and creative plating. Go on Wednesdays for all-you-can-eat stone crabs for just $35 per person.
Switch, Coconut Grove’s newest pub, is old school — like college.
A super-casual Asian eatery. Try classics like gyoza, fried rice, curry noodles, and Mongolian beef while sitting cafeteria-style on long, blonde wood benches.
The Italian bistro woos with late-night eats (charcuterie, pasta, and such until 3 a.m.) and a happy hour with $6 booze and apps.
The authentic dive (next to The Lost and Found Saloon) charms with pool tables, free Wi-Fi, and cheap drinks ($1.75 drafts; $3.50 well). Go on football Sundays.
The folks behind A in the Design District opened the eclectic French Caribbean eatery. If you’re going to try escargot, do it here. Corkage fees are just $5 (on South Beach!).
The casual trattoria serves simple Italian fare like Momma used to make — if Momma were from Italy. Go on Mondays when the corkage fees are waived at the already affordable eatery.
