Mark’s South Beach, South Beach

Another connoisseur’s dream spot, just a block from the chicest beach in the US, at the Post-Modernized Hotel Nash. The setting is dreamy, to go with the artfully presented food (see Mark’s South Beach).
Monty’s Stone Crab Seafood House and Raw Bar

A vast dining room in an old airplane hangar. Try the Jamaican jerk spiced fish, or just go for the excellent peel-and-eat shrimp and raw oysters. It’s a Miami insititution.
Monty’s Stone Crab Seafood House and Raw Bar, Coconut Grove

Order a pile of peel-and-eat shrimp and a dollop or two of cocktail sauce, and seat yourself under a thatched breezeway while you shuck. Right on the water, near Coconut Grove’s parks, it’s one of the nicest places to have a casual meal (see Monty’s Stone Crab Seafood House and Raw Bar).
News Café

Numero uno on Ocean Drive, it’s spacious and bustling, perfect for a drink, snack, or meal, and avid people-watching.
Norman’s

Norman Van Aiken is the country’s chief protagonist of New World fusion cuisine. Experience opulent aspects of tuna, foie gras, fish, seafood, and even simple salad greens that you never knew existed.
Norman’s, Coral Gables

Haute-nouvelle-evolved fusion cuisine at its peak of foodie perfection. Norman has gained a much-deserved national and international reputation for his subtle inventiveness, and he’s published a number of books revealing some, but not all, of his secrets (see Norman’s).
Old Lisbon

A taste of Portuguese cuisine, with sardinhas assadas (grilled sardines), salada polvo (octopus salad), mussels, squid, and assorted cheeses.
One Duval

The chef utilizes the abundance of ingredients indigenous to the Caribbean and the Florida peninsula, but prepares them with a flourish that redefines regional cuisine. The lobster with marinated plantain is a tour de force.
P. F. Chang’s China Bistro

This is a bright and modern restaurant with an open kitchen, aimed at family-style Chinese food. Try the wok-seared lamb or the prawns with green pearls.
Pacific Time

Recipes are delicious experimental meldings of Pacific Rim and Caribbean. Tuna tartar with Idaho potato chips, Szechuan grilled Florida Keys grouper, and broiled Florida grapefruit are typical (see Pacific Time, South Beach).
