The sun, the sand, and the water aren’t the only things that make Miami Beach a popular destination. This coastal city is known for its lively nightlife as well as its beautiful art galleries, top-notch shopping, and unique architecture.
In addition to that, Miami Beach restaurants are home to a varied food culture that will take your taste buds on a trip of discovery while you are there.
Find out more about the creative and delectable cuisine that can be enjoyed at the top restaurants in Miami Beach.
Byblos Miami

The cuisine of Lebanon and its Eastern Mediterranean neighbors is enhanced in this South Beach establishment that is just as opulent as you’d imagine.
The front dining room, which is divided into two areas, sparkles in the late-afternoon sunlight, while the back room takes on the vibe of a loungey nightclub after hours.
Turkish dumplings, kibbeh, wood-fired pides, and roasted lamb shoulder cooked with sumac are just a few of the dishes that seem to be a hit here.
Macchialina

One of Miami’s top Italian eateries is called Macchialina. The main draw to this location is the food. There are roughly six incredible pasta options on the menu, and each one feels like a final draft that has been nearly perfected.
There is not even a single extraneous piece of parmesan on the plate (dessert is a must-order too). However, Macchialina has enough energy for a flirtatious date or a catch-up supper with boisterous friends.
They also unveiled a fantastic outdoor seating arrangement during the pandemic. You don’t have to worry about sporadic summer thunderstorms because they are mostly covered.
The Globe

It is unknown how the Globe came to have its name. Maybe it’s due to the display of cartographic globes behind the lacquered wood bar, or maybe it’s because customers receive the unmistakable impression that they have suddenly been transported far from Miami’s hypermodern eating scene.
Owners Danny and Lorraine Guiteras chose handpainted frescoes and fresh roses over the entire Tulum-inspired craze. Behind the bar, black-and-white movies are screened. Every Saturday night, live jazz is played (there are no DJs), creating the atmosphere of a vintage New York salon or Paris café.
The Globe, a classy restaurant that has been family-owned since 1997, is a great place for happy hour (former Coral Gables mayor Raul Valdes-Fauli is a regular). The steak fries, fish and chips, pear ravioli, and famous Globe salad are still as delicious as they were 25 years ago because of the fact that the menu doesn’t change.
Lucali

In a rustic-chic eatery, the upmarket pizzeria Lucali serves pizzas from a brick oven. The cozy accommodations are the ideal setting to focus on the mouthwatering delights of its food, thanks to their basic country decor and cozy ambiance.
When you eat at this outstanding choice among the best Miami Beach restaurants, you can expect nothing but superb food and no interruptions.
If you are not sure what to order, you can pick up the Signature Plain Pie and top it with sausage, ricotta, shallots, portabella mushrooms, and artichokes. You can also add some chopped chicken salad to this.
Silverlake Bistro

There is a lot of glitz and glamour in Miami Beach, but sometimes you want a neighborhood restaurant like Silverlake, where the food is always terrific, the service is always welcoming, and where we have yet to find anything on the menu that we couldn’t suggest.
Test that idea with a double-patty cheeseburger topped with bacon, cheddar, and porcini mayo sauce and served with wistful shoestring fries.
Taquiza

You go to Taquiza for the best Mexican food in South Beach, but you also go there because it’s nice enough for a night out in clothes that don’t smell like sunscreen and casual enough to go to if you’re a little sandy.
In addition to being essential to the fantastic tacos, the blue masa tortillas are also the star of Taquiza’s best dish: the chewy totopos, which arrive with a side of guacamole and will likely be gone about 30 seconds after they are placed on the table. (The quesadilla comes in second and should also be offered.)
This place also has margaritas on tap, which you can use to keep your friends busy while you eat all the totopos.
Sadelle’s
![restaurant with yellow lights shining on it](https://inarticly.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/AnyConv.com__7-1024x683.webp)
Sadelle’s began as Major Food Group (the people behind Carbone) took on a brunch palace in New York City. It immediately became the most popular bagel-buying spot in Miami.
This Coconut Grove gem is a fever dream of childhood favorites for breakfast and lunch, including pigs-in-a-blanket, triple-decker sandwiches, tuna melts (try one on a salt-and-pepper bagel), and salads so massive you’ll worry if you’ve caused a lettuce scarcity by eating one.
The restaurant serves classic New York breakfast dishes like smoked salmon, whitefish, sable, or salmon salad platters with tomatoes, capers, and a bagel of your choice if you’re looking for pure nostalgia. Bringing buddies along?
Spend money on the “Sadelle’s Tower,” a collection of bagels, salmon spreads, and vegetables on a tower that can be Instagrammed.
Le Zoo
![big bar with a lot of lights](https://inarticly.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/8-1024x576.webp)
Due to its wonderful string lights and generally stylish design, you wouldn’t know that this adorable French bistro is actually located inside a mall.
Due to the fact that it is owned by Stephen Starr, Le Zoo must keep a certain reputation. It does this very well with a menu that mixes traditional and modern dishes, like steak fries and duck confit pizza.
True Loaf Bakery
![bakery with white interior](https://inarticly.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/AnyConv.com__compress.9-1024x683.webp)
One of the best almond croissants in town can be found at this modest bakery, which is a reliable source of other delicious pastries as well. Although they also offer excellent lunches, we frequently visit for their sweet pastries.
Along with the enormous, mouthwatering almond croissant, there are some excellent fruit tarts and monkey bread with dulce de leche. Although there isn’t much seating at True Loaf and it can become busy on weekends, a charming little seaside park (Maurice Gibb Memorial Park) is only a block away.
Kyu
![wooden tables photographed in front of a black color wall](https://inarticly.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/10-1024x640.webp)
For a night out or a special supper, Kyu’s hip and contemporary menu of sharing appetizers, wines, and cocktails have something for everyone. The basic yet elegant and delectable Asian fusion presentations tick the value box, which is always vital, and the portions are sizable.
There are other delicacies on the menu that you probably won’t find anywhere else, including hamachi crispy rice, charred summer corn, and a stone pot of Thai fried rice that has been cooked over a wood fire. Speaking of wood-fired, they plant five new trees for everyone that is destroyed to power Kyu’s grill.
