- HHowardGreater Boston •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days ago2nd time here in the same number of weeks. Food is fantastic, team is friendly and fun, and atmosphere is perfect for a downtown spot. Too many epic dishes to go over, but I will share pictures. If you’re looking for a place in downtown you haven’t been to, this should be the #1 place on your list, as all your friends will want to show their friends. Rooftop terrace is especially great, plus live DJ on some nights. Lastly, it’s just a 6 minute walk from MODE, the new hottest cocktail lounge (upstairs) + club (downstairs) in Miami. So perfect combination to take your date or friends there after a delicious meal. HowardMore infoTorno SubitoPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Downtown Miami•4.5
- MMarisolMiami - Dade •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoWe were in downtown for one night & went here for dinner. It was the best part of our stay in Miami. We were greeted warmly and sat quickly. I did have a reservation and would highly encourage one. It is a small venue with additional outside seating. Our server Dani was great! The entire staff provided exceptional service. They have a wide array of dishes to please even the pickiest eater. Everything we ate was beyond delicious. The food came out piping hot. We each had soup and a pasta. The pasta tasted as if made fresh. So good. If I'm ever back in Miami, I would definitely recommend.More infoFratelli Milano Downtown MiamiPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown Miami•4.9
- DdexterFort Lauderdale •1 review4.0Dined 4 days agoThe service was great, and I had reservations, so all went smoothly. The only complaint was that the meal was very salty. Believe it was the salmon seasoning overall, the meal was fair.More infoHard Rock Cafe - MiamiPrice: Moderate• American• Downtown Miami•4.3
- HHeidiMiami - Dade •5 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 13, 2024From the moment you enter and see the funky, eclectic decor, you know that you're in a welcoming space. You'll be warmly greeted and seated. The menu offers enough plates to allow for a variety of palates, but few enough that allow them to be perfected. The homemade pasta dishes are always an excellent choice, the salads are fresh and the panini are lovely. If you love eggplant parmigiani, you're in luck. And the dessert menu is divine!More infoSoya & PomodoroPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown Miami•4.4
- SSharonVIPFort Lauderdale •10 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 1, 2024Located in the bayside marketplace, looks exactly as the pics show. Good food, great portions, priced on the higher side but it’s worth it!! Such an interesting menu with great vibes and chill environment where you can relax and enjoy your food with good music at a good volume!! Bonus: they have the freshest orange juice I have had in a long time!! What a lovely meal and look forward to going back.More infoLa Industria Bakery & CafePrice: Expensive• Contemporary Latin• Downtown Miami•4.4

Discover Downtown Miami
It'd be easy to solely recognize Downtown Miami's high-quality Cuban cuisine, ignoring the other, tremendous restaurants located in the culture enclave, but that simply wouldn't be fair. Powerful sunshine rays, smiling locals, and one of the most gorgeous skyline views in the country are just bonuses to the wide variety of cuisine in Downtown Miami. Again, the Cuban food is tremendous, but consider Peruvian eateries, authentic French bistros, underrated American establishments, and businesses committed solely to offering the very best seafood all sweeten the deal. Needless to say, Florida's seafood — especially the lobster — must be tried, but Downtown Miami's eye-opening key lime pie is sure to wow anyone with a sweet tooth. There's a lot to see and do in Downtown Miami, and any energy spent enjoying the sights can quickly be replenished at a top-notch restaurant.
