For a dangerously delicious dining experience, blend a healthy dose of local flavor on a Native American foundation, sprinkle in the Caribbean islands, add a dash of South America, a shake of Central America, and the requisite touch of Cuba. And never leave South Florida.

As always, the food and service were fantastic. We both ordered the winter salad and smoked cobia, both of which were innovative and delicious. For dessert we ordered the mango ice cream which was a creative combination of flavors. This is one of our favorite restaurants in Miami.

I have been to Stubborn Seed many times since learning about it two years ago. As excellent and noteworthy as the menu and service have typically been, last night was a step beyond. Literally, every item in the menu was interesting, beautifully presented, and having wonderful contrasts and subtleties. Really, a sublime experience.
