Conch Chowder or Fritters

The snail- or slug-like creature that lives in beautiful pink shells is served up in a traditional, rather chewy dish.
Doraku

The decor may look tre' chic, but the staff is warm and friendly and, more importantly, the food is delish! The sushi may be a little pricey, but the ambiance is dazzling. For a special deal go Friday early evening for sushi happy-hour. All-you-can-eat sushi, spring rolls, edamame, watermellon and other suprises that change weekly, plus two drinks all for $10!
Duval Beach Club

Owned by actress Kelly McGillis, this restaurant-snack bar is easy-going and pleasant, serving mostly sandwiches, salads, and great breakfasts.
El Atlacatl

The cuisine of El Salvador, served in a spacious, cheerful setting. Pleasant murals, and a menu that leans toward chicken and seafood.
El Crucero

Old-fashioned hospitality, Cuban style, and amazing cooking. Daily specials are listed on the board. Don’t miss the creamy natilla , a sweet custard with a caramelized top, which rounds off a meal perfectly.
El Siboney

Great Cuban food in abundance in a friendly, no-nonsense setting. Lots of diversity, such as roast pork with casava and tamale , breaded palomilla steak, or stuffed crab.
Escopazzo

Solid Italian fare. Swordfish carpaccio, asparagus flan, and risotto are hits (see Escopazzo, South Beach).
Escopazzo, South Beach

As close to authentic Italian food as you’re likely to get outside of the peninsula itself. It’s more or less family style, so you’ll feel like one of the regulars in this unpretentious little place (see Escopazzo).
Exquisito Restaurant

The most authentic and affordable on the street, where locals go every day. All the gritty Cuban fare, like brain fritters and horse beef stew, but also things “gringos” can relish, such as Cajun lobster or shrimp, or pork chops.
Front Porch Café

Many consider the breakfast here to be the best in South Beach. The atmosphere’s homey, and the food’s definitely worth the wait.
