Best & Cool Bars in Belle Meade Island

"Brought to you by the same owners as The Foxy Brown, the illustrious and breezy Coconuts Waterfront restaurant is South Florida at its best. Conveniently located on the Intracoastal waterway, you can easily float your way to Sunday brunch and dock your boat here. Coconuts prides itself on their philosophy to “be nice”, which is exuded in their exceptional and sincere service, coupled with quality food and an unbeatable view."

"Relax by the city marina and enjoy finger food fit for small hands and fresh catches from the sea at Coconuts. For the older children and adults, this restaurant features snow crab legs and roasted garlic butter that make you glad you chose to vacation on the beach. Few things are more relaxing than watching the boats go by while watching your children eat happily with their hands."

"Fort Lauderdale’s Coconuts restaurant offers waterfront dining and an inventive menu that is primarily composed of delicious seafood and comfort foods. Treat yourself to tasty dishes like the Lobster Roll, Jambalaya, or the Gravy Train (breaded pork loin medallions in home gravy). Stop in for Sunday brunch and try the seafood quiche."

"Located in Kimpton's Epic Hotel, this restaurant's setting affords skyline views of both Miami (to the north and west) and Biscayne Bay (to the east and south) that guests find truly breathtaking--that is, if they aren't too focused on the incredible cuisine. Executive Chef Wolfgang Birk gleans most of his seafare--items such as jumbo lump crab salad with spicy seared watermelon, heirloom tomato, avocado, mint and basil or yellowfin tuna with mixed grains, smoked black beans, shrimp guacamole and ginger juice--either locally or from the region of the ocean for which the restaurant is named, Area 31, one of the only self-sustaining spots that is said to be left in the ocean. Meat and pasta dishes are just as delicious and contain sustainable items from nearby farms and other trusted sources."

"If you dig wind in your hair and a chill vibe, head to Area 31 at the Epic Hotel in Downtown Miami, where the neighboring buildings and location on the river act as a wind tunnel. Be sure to check out the yachts docked below and excellent city views to the south. A photo posted by Pietro Matulli (@pietro_matulli) on Jun 13, 2016 at 6:46am PDT"

"Whisk yourself away to the 16th floor of the Epic Hotel and discover the excitement at Area 31. Feast on Korean barbecue steak tacos and Spanish croquetas with a glass of Merlot and gaze toward the downtown Miami skyline."

"On the 40th floor of the East Miami hotel at Brickell City Centre, you’ll find a lush rooftop garden bar stocked with all the good stuff. Think: truffle pistachio tataki and wok-tossed edamame paired with lychee blossom cocktails and rosé champagne. Plus, the view is to die for."

"Located in Brickell City Centre's EAST Miami, Sugar was just named to Condé Nast's 10 Best Rooftop Bars in the United States."

"Celebrate love this Valentine’s Day at celebrity chef Richard Sandoval’s Pan-Latin steakhouse Toro Toro located at InterContinental Miami. On Saturday, February 13 and Sunday, February 14 from 5PM to 11PM, Toro Toro is offering a Valentine’s weekend culinary experience with a five-course tasting menu by Executive Chef Jean Delgado. The lavish dinner, priced at $99++ per person, begins with a Chef’s choice Amuse-Bouche, followed by Tuna Ceviche Nikkei and Bucatini Carbonara."

"Our server was very nice, did not rush us into anything, the food was amazing and drinks as well. I would definitely come back when back to Miami from NYC!. The croquetas, octopus, empanadas, chicharrón shrimp, the meats and sides, and...See More"

"A hip hangout in The Miami Beach EDITION hotel, Basement takes nightlife to another level. There’s a place to dance – dubbed Discobox and inspired by Ian Schrager’s legendary Studio 54 (he’s also the mastermind of the hotel). And there are a couple of novel concepts: a four-lane bowling alley and an ice-skating rink."

"Where else can you drink, dance, party, bowl, and ice-skate?. Basement is so dank that Drake once rented out the whole place to skate with Rihanna during Miami Music Week. It's a rather intimate space with room for dancing, although it can get cramped, so make sure you get there early enough to avoid the long line."

"Wynwood is quickly turning into the frontier spot for the Miami party scene. The SHOTS is a vibrant and energetic bar that is a great addition to Wynwood. They feature signature shots and outrageous buckets to keep the party going well into the night!"

"Tierra Santa Healing House Photo: Courtesy Faena Miami Beach. Though the name translates to “holy ground healing house,” you don’t have to be a soul-meets-body yogi to appreciate the experience at Faena Miami Beach’s 22,000-square-foot Tierra Santa Healing House spa. In fact, there are just as many beauty and skincare offerings as there are “healing arts.” The spa has partnered with both all-natural cult-favorite Naturopathica (cleansing facials are standouts) and French heritage brand Biologique Recherche (try the micro-needling treatment) to give its treatments a science-backed kick."

"Contour Day Spa of Fort Lauderdale specializes in Body Massages, Facials, Manicures, Pedicures and Colonics. We are the premier provider of spa services. Spa package deals for couples, men and teens available to celebrate any special occasion."

"Seafood is another thing you will find at many Miami restaurants, but it doesn’t have to be expensive. My Ceviche is our favorite hidden gem we found on our last trip. This counter service eatery offers ceviche and poke bowl for just $10!"

"Today my father and I celebrated Father’s Day the best way 2 fitness minded Vegans could. We started our day doing 4 miles on Fort Lauderdale beach pair..."

"Another newcomer on the scene, Piero Atchugarry Gallery is grounded in the works of Pablo Atchugarry – a renowned Uruguayan sculptor and gallerist Piero’s father. The accompanying program often includes works by avant-garde Italian sculptors. Piero Atchugarry’s Little Haiti compound also experiments with exhibitions by emerging and mid-career artists, and historic works."

"Recognizing Miami as the crossroads for Latin American culture in the United States, Gary Nader, who moved from the Dominican Republic to the U.S. in 1981, opened the Gary Nader Art Centre located in Wynwood. Whether you appreciate historical or contemporary pieces, you will find both categories at the gallery. You can discover the beauty of the continent’s art by viewing the prestigious Gary Nader Private Collection, examining the Exhibition Gallery and walking through the haute Sculpture Park."

"Named for Dominican art expert Gary Nader, the Art Centre has been promoting Latin American artwork since 1985. It is the biggest private gallery in the world at 55,000 square feet of exhibitions, which include Nader’s private collection, Sculpture Park, and the Exhibition Gallery. Presentations at this Miami art museum have included the works of:"
