Top, Best & Fun Rooftop Bars in West Miami

"Restaurants Seafood Downtown. For years, the Epic Hotel’s rooftop bar and restaurant was a magnet for business types grabbing a drink after work in the area. But even without its beat-the-clock happy hour, Area 31 is still luring the locals with its unparalleled views of Downtown and well-priced bites and sips."

"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."

"More of a Balinese garden than a bar, Sugar takes rooftop aesthetics to a whole new level. With 40th-floor views (from the EAST, Miami hotel), soothing decor, and dangerously strong lychee martinis, and tasty tapas, making an evening at Sugar is an exotic departure from the Miami norm.

"Do these tangy, spicy wings taste nearly as good without a complete panoramic view of Miami from the 40th floor?. Find out as Sugar offers this plus the rest of its menu for delivery. Cool off from all the spice with the Audi and Ramsa ice creams, which are made with various types of alcohol."

"This bar showed Miami just how delicious cocktails could be. This intimate, tropical outdoor bar that lives inside the Freehand hostel has become a must-visit for any informed drinker passing through the city. Thankfully, the bar hasn’t lost any of its magic over the years and remains the North Star of Miami cocktail culture."

"The lush, tropical outdoor bar at Freehand Miami feels like a club for sophisticated adults. Excellent cocktails (including fun, large-format options) and a lively poolside scene make this the spot to hang when in town. 2727 Indian Creek Dr.Miami Beach, FL 33140+1-305-531-2727"

"Broken Shaker is a tropical oasis in the heart of South Beach. Located inside the adorable Freehand Miami Hostel the decor makes it one of the most adorable Miami photo spots. It’s perfect for those who love pink like me!"

"Tucked behind Miracle Mile, on the new Giralda Plaza, The Local Craft Food & Drink is a neighborhood spot with gastropub-style food, 18 brews on tap, a rotating menu of 20+ bottles of craft beer, cocktails, and surprise concoctions. Perfect for lunch, dinner, weekend brunch or late-night drinks, pair your craft beverage of choice with plates like shrimp and grits, teriyaki beef jerky, mac n’ cheese with truffled breadcrumbs, or “Disco Fries” with homemade cheese whiz and bacon sawmill gravy.150 Giralda Avenue, Coral Gables, FL 33134."

"If you’re looking for elevated comfort food in Coral Gables, the Local is the place for you. This gastropub opened its doors in 2011 and has been slammed ever since. Indulge in a handcrafted cocktail here — with names like Grab ‘Em By the Peaches (bourbon, peach nectar, lemon, banana liqueur and Amaro) and Don’t Flick the Bean (whiskey, Irish cream, Disaronno, Amaro and Tia Maria coffee liqueur), you know you’re in for a treat or at least a wild ride."

"4 out of 5 stars Bars Beer bars Coral Gables. It’s always a blast to scan the Local’s menu when you first take your seat. The fun and undeniably delicious options feel familiar but often come with mouth-watering twists."

"As an homage to the original 1970s food hall, Yumbrella adds South Miami to the roster of neighborhoods embracing the fad. Located at the Shops at Sunset Place, the 6,500 square-foot space houses everything from grilled cheese to craft cocktails. View this post on Instagram"

"The Living Room within the W Hotel is always swarming the beautiful people before a night out in Miami. The menu prides itself on quality ingredients and freshness, incorporating a variety of infusions, molecular mixology and other special..."

"Restaurants Japanese South Beach. One of the original New York imports to find a home in South Beach (there are many now), Blue Ribbon is a solid choice in the neighborhood. It’s small but offers outdoor seating by the pool (it’s inside the Plymouth Hotel) and a comfortable sushi counter where you can watch the pros go to work on your rolls."

"Kaori is a Mediterranean/Asian restaurant inside the SLS LUX Brickell. Their menu includes crudo options, salads, and large plates like octopus, braised short rib, and seared salmon."

"Restaurants Japanese South Beach. In a town where everything is constantly changing and shuttering, South Beach’s first sushi restaurant remains successfully in business since 1987. Toni’s wood design is more retro than dated and its cozy sunken booths are a nice throwback to when people welcomed sitting on the floor."

"Toni’s Sushi Bar is one of the first places that comes to mind when locals here think of amazing fresh fish and Japanese food. It opened in 1987 and has been a hit with the crowds ..."

"Miami's Latin-American influences are not limited to Cuba: from Uruguay comes El Rey del Chivito, where the speciality is the chivito (little goat) sandwich. Actually, there's no goat in this mammoth sandwich, but there is just about everything else you could imagine: grilled steak, bacon, ham, cheese, a fried egg, onions, lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, all piled onto a lightly toasted bun. It's like breakfast, lunch and dinner all at once, plus a side of fries, all for under $10."

"What started as a nondescript takeout shop nestled against the SoBe Hostel has since morphed into a six-location cevicheria known for its impeccable, inexpensive ceviche. Whole fish is brought straight from the Atlantic, prepped in-house and then “cooked” in lime juice. The result is some of the best ceviche in town, for a fraction of what it would cost at sit-down restaurants."
