"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."

"Located on the 16th Floor of the Kimpton Epic Hotel, one of the best hotels in Miami, Area 31 is a popular happy hour spot with gorgeous views overlooking sparkling Miami waterways and downtown Miami. The food is locally sourced with a seafood-centric menu with a Mediterranean flavor. At the bar, you’ll find seasonal cocktails and an international wine list."

"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."

"Romantic stalwart stays on top with new food and creative cocktails If you thought the Rusty Pelican, with its giant glass windows looking across Biscayne Bay to the skyline, was so romantic it had become cliché, thick again. Not content to be the grand dame of Miami’s romantic restaurants, the venerable Rusty Pelican has completely revamped its menu, adding stuff like fresh sushi, lobster risotto, and an impressive lineup of steaks. The cocktails here are also among the most surprisingly creative in the city, with six herb-infused gin and tonics complimenting an array of craft creations, like the Cider on the Biscayne with Elijah Craig bourbon, Drambuie, apple cider, lemon juice, and sugar cane."

"When the weather is nice in Miami (but who are we kidding, it’s always nice here) nothing is better than dining outside on the water. The Rusty Pelican kicks it up a notch by having some of the best views of the Miami skyline."

"The humble interior of Mignonette belies the quality of the food served, says Miami New Times. This seafood restaurant is influenced by French cuisine. At the heart of the dishes, diners can enjoy the delicious flavors of fresh seafood, such as shrimp, crab, lobster, clams, oysters, and a vast array of fish."

"Estiatorio Milos brings a taste of Greece to the shores of Miami; it is a chic, stylish eatery that serves classic Mediterranean cuisine. Serving incredibly fresh seafood that arrives every morning and which can be chosen from the icy-cool display in the back of the restaurant, the restaurant features a menu that also boasts classic Greek plates such as charcoal-grilled octopus, lightly fried zucchini flowers filled with Mediterranean cheese, and karidopita (Greek walnut cake) dripping in honey. As Estiatorio Milos is one of Miami’s most refined and popular restaurants, be prepared to spend a little more than you would at any other restaurant."

"Estiatorio Milos is an interesting marriage of a Greek fish market and an upscale white tablecloth restaurant; bright, airy, and with touches of white in swathes of curtains, this place brings to mind sailboats on the azure waters of the Aegean Sea. As you walk into the restaurant, you pass by the display of fish, most of which you have never heard of, that have been flown straight from Mediterranean fishing boats. To preserve the exquisite flavor of most of the fish, their preparation is very simple, mostly grilled or broiled and served with steamed or fresh vegetables."

"Greek cuisine is rooted in simplicity and quality ingredients. At Estiatorio Milos in South Beach, there's something new to discover on every visit: The fish selection changes daily depending upon what fishermen haul in. The day's catch is prepared to your liking and priced according to weight."

"Bars Lounges Allapattah. Watr owns its stunning view of the ocean with a Peruvian-Japanese menu and a bar decked in reclaimed wood. The soundtrack is more akin to breaking waves than the usual club bangers you hear in these parts."

"Eighteen stories above 1 Hotel South Beach’s private beach, Watr At The 1 Rooftop serves up Peruvian and Japanese seafood with a heavy dose of atmosphere. Open daily for lunch and dinner, dusk tends to be the prime time for the public to partake in crudo, chardonnay, and waterfront selfies."

"The wooden bar and Polynesian inspired rooftop make water a must-visit place to come. Enjoy great nightlife that you usually don’t get in the usual clubs because the soundtrack is fantastic. The stunning ocean view, drinks, and Zen vibes will also let you feel that you are in a spa."

"Don’t miss cocktail hour at the Tropicale, a pool bar with tiki drinks, reggae and snacks. If the rooms are all booked up at the Edition, head to Marriott Stanton South Beach, a luxury resort right on the water’s edge. With stylish designs and inviting suites, you’ll never want to leave."

"Coconut GroveThere’s nothing quite like delving into a spicy, steaming plate of chicken vindaloo in a mirrored space that could well have been the inspiration for the Babylon Club. But would you expect any less out of Miami’s most vaunted Indian restaurant, who moved into this massive Mayfair space after it outgrew its old digs on Commodore Plaza. Bombay Darbar plays the Indian classics better than anyone in Miami, and though it’s not as cutting edge as some of our more-celebrated Indian eateries it still packs ’em in night after night.How to book: Call 305-444-7272 to reserve."

"Pioneered by Joey Goldman in 2008, Joey's was the first to enter Wynwood’s restaurant scene and now tops even the most selective lists of the city’s best pizzas. The hotspot helped revitalize the now hip and popular Wynwood neighborhood, located next to the area's famed painted walls. Joey's is a favorite for delicious thin crust pies and other authentic Italian dishes and pastas, which are all to be enjoyed with a selection from its carefully curated wine pairing list."

"As the name suggests Joey’s is located in the Wynwood area of Miami and it was actually the first restaurant to open in the area. It is one of the best Miami Italian restaurants for pizza but has a full menu with other dishes. Try the grilled octopus, eggplant parmigiana, or meatballs for a starter or try the Charcuterie platter that comes in two sizes depending on the size of your party!"
