1. Red Fish Grill

One of Miami’s most romantic spots, nestled amid the tropical magic of Matheson Hammock Park. Great, freshly caught fish, prepared lovingly with a Caribbean flair, and a range of other dishes.
2. La Porteña

Traditional Argentine parrillada , but also things like ostrich, caviar crêpes stuffed with mascarpone and Manchego cheeses, and savory mussels sautéed with roasted garlic.
3. Shula’s Steak House

A beautifully appointed restaurant, with lots of Miami Dolphins memorablilia (it’s owned by a former coach). As for the food, there is plenty of meat, including a giant 48 oz (1.35 kg) steak.
4. Tropical Chinese

The food is Chinese and excellent, the setting tropical, big, and busy. Expect abalone, shrimp with garlic and spinach in clay pots, seafood tofu soup, and more.
5. Trattoria Sole

The baby spinach salad with raisins and pinenuts works well, as does the polenta with wild boar sausage.
6. Guadalajara

Original, homecooked Mexican fare in a locale full of character. The portions are huge, so just an appetizer might do. Try dipping a warm tortilla in a queso fundido (cheese fondue).
7. Saffron

Enjoy Persian and Mediterannean cuisine in this friendly neighborhood restaurant. The beef stew is delicious.
8. Grappa

Cozy Italian with a full South Florida-inspired menu. Finish off with the eponymous firewater – chilled grappa.
9. Sushi Maki

Good sushi at reasonable prices. The volcano roll is a creamy, multi-fish treat, or choose from 30 other creative rolls.
10. Cauley Square Tea Room

A light and lacy setting in a period cottage. Order hot crabmeat au gratin, a large tuna-nut salad, or a shrimp platter. Open for lunch only.
