The Best Restaurants in Miami Beach

Just across the causeways from the Magic City, between the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, lies Miami Beach, a city with incontestably the most famous shores in America.

Miami Beach also happens to be home to some of the best places to eat, drink, and be merry, from well-crafted cocktails at hidden gems to four-course meals with all the flash the city is known for.

So, slip on your sandals or your dancing shoes (or both, who are we to judge), and check out some of the best restaurants in the city.

The Best Bars in Miami Beach

Broken Shaker

Walk into the inconspicuous Freehand Miami boutique hotel and hostel on Indian Creek and you’ll find much more than a chic place to sleep.

Tucked in the backyard is the sprawling Broken Shaker, which stretches from the bar itself near the back of the hotel and wraps around the pool area. There’s plenty of cozy seating and the atmosphere is lively, but never overwhelming.

And maybe the most important are the drinks. Broken Shaker has cultivated a reputation for having some of the finest mixologists serving up the freshest cocktails you could hope to fill the night with. What better way to spend a night out than sipping Thai-Thai Baby or a Tropical Orgasm as you make new friends by the pool over street tacos and shawarma fries?

Broken Shaker is located at 2727 Indian Creek Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33140. For more information, visit their official website.

Lost Weekend

Getting boozy on the beach can take on any number of forms, but no list of places to pop in for a drink would be complete without the inclusion of some pool tables and a bit of karaoke, both of which you’ll find at Lost Weekend.

This South Beach mainstay plays host to locals and tourists alike, providing a laid-back vibe that’s welcoming to all.

Lost Weekend is located at 218 Española Way, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Monty’s

Good times come and good times go and there are few establishments in Miami Beach that can stand the test of time. Monty’s is an exception to that rule, a place where the good times have a way of sticking around and have stuck around for a long time.

Monty’s is classic Miami Beach – old school and unpretentious. The pool, which overlooks the marina and Biscayne Bay, is a perpetual party, the stage features local talent playing good tunes, the seafood is delicious, the beer is cold and the cocktails are frosty.

Monty’s is located at 300 Alton Rd, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Sweet Liberty

Around the corner from Collins Park, you’ll find Sweet Liberty, a cool cocktail joint that’s just the right blend of bustling hip bar and low-key local watering hole.

Get yourself a Raspberry Daquiri to be enjoyed on the dancefloor (where they often have live music) or order a Golden Sunset to pair with an actual sunset at an al fresco table just a stone’s throw from the ocean, where you can taste your drink and smell the sea breeze.

Sweet Liberty is located at 237 20th St suite b, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Swizzle Rum Bar & Drinkery

As loud and flashy as Ocean Drive may be between the roar of Lamborghinis and the bright lights flooding out of the clubs, there are a few spots that offer a more relaxing refuge from the typical hustle and bustle of South Beach.

Enter Swizzle Rum Bar. Located inside the Stiles Motel on Collins, this speakeasy-style lounge will transport you and make you feel like you’re much more than a block away from the neon and the noise of the main drag.

Think dark wood and dim lighting, candlelight and conversation, and, above all, well-crafted cocktails. Whether you crave a classic Manhattan or want to try a signature concoction like the tropical Mamey Swizzle or their punchy riff on the Hurricane, Swizzle will make you feel right at home in the heart of the action.

Swizzle Rum Bar & Drinkery is located at 1120 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

The Best Brunch Spots in Miami Beach

Abbale Telavivian Kitchen

Israeli cuisine is having a moment right now and that’s a wonderful thing because it’s delicious and we want to eat it all the time – including for brunch.

One of the best spots in town to do just that is Abbale, where the Sunday brunch ticks off all the boxes. We’re talking shakshuka with house cured gravlax, bureka puff pastries stuffed with egg and Bulgarian feta, sumac marinated chicken and crunchy cauliflower hummus.

The list goes on and on, as do the reasons to give this eatery a try the next time you’re planning a brunch date.

Abbale Telavivian Kitchen is located at 864 Commerce St, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Local House

Nestled in a hotel on the corner of fourth and Ocean Drive you’ll find Local House, an eatery that lives up to its name by being a favorite with Miami Beach residents, as well as those just visiting.

Regardless of whether you stop in for one of their luxurious bennies like the crab cake benedict or the buttery lobster benedict or whether you opt for lighter fare like the avocado and seared tuna salad, you’ll be sure to eat up the cute café atmosphere located barely a block away from the ocean.

Local House is located at 400 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

News Café

It’s hard to get more iconically South Beach, even amidst the postcard backdrop of Art Deco facades and ultra-vibrant neon signs, than the News Cafe.

Originally opened in 1989, this spot was the place to be and the place to be seen at the epicenter of the Beach for decades, until it closed during the pandemic. But now, News Cafe is back open and better than ever, with its prime people watching location, its airy outdoor seating and its timeless vibe.

It also has a timeless menu, which features a mix of American classics and News Cafe signatures, like their Cafe con Leche French Toast.

News Cafe is located at 800 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

RED South Beach

One of the best steakhouses in the city might not be the first though that comes to mind when you’re trying to figure out where to go for brunch but trust us – you don’t want to sleep on the spread RED South Beach has to offer.

Whether you opt for the unlimited champagne and food service with dishes like the giant house-baked cinnamon roll and blue crab ravioli or want to order entrees like pillowy eggs benedict served atop a massive dry-aged tomahawk steak, there’s no going wrong with this upscale Sunday brunch South of Fifth.

Yardbird

Miami Beach may not be a traditional image of the American South, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find top-notch Southern comfort food, which is exactly what Yardbird on South Beach does best.

Located just south of Lincoln Road, the restaurant’s specialty, as its name should imply, is chicken. And what’s a better brunch than chicken fried to perfection and cheddar waffles, all served with chilled spiced watermelon and bourbon maple syrup?

Want to wash that down with a stiff, Southern, brunch appropriate cocktail? Make sure to try their Yardbird Old Fashioned, made with – wait for it – bacon infused bourbon.

Yardbird is located at 1600 Lenox Ave., Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

The Best Coffee Shops in Miami Beach

Bettant Bakery & Café

Love a nice croissant with your coffee? We have it on good authority that Bettant Bakery serves up a pretty one.

Born of a family of French bakers that have been crafting pastries since 1935, this South Beach newcomer has earned a loyal following for its practically perfect patisserie. Want more than a croissant with your coffee? Maybe a croissant sandwich? How about a croissant dough pizza? What about…well, you get the point – Bettant has loads of options and they’re all delicious.

Bettant Bakery & Cafe is located at 1043 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139.

Buenos Aires Bakery & Café

In the mood to swap eclairs for facturas or maybe pair your coffee with an empanada? Stop in at Buenos Aires Bakery, which has been proudly serving Miami since 1992. They opened their doors on Miami Beach in 2001, fittingly setting up shop in the neighborhood that’s come to be known as little Buenos Aires.

Buenos Aires Bakery & Cafe is located at 230 71st St, Miami Beach, FL 33141. For more information, visit their official website.

Crema Gourmet Espresso Bar

Crema is one of the fastest growing cafes in South Florida and with good reason. Their delectable espressos and tasty pastries have garnered them attention across Dade and Broward counties, with spots from Downtown up to Davie including two in Miami Beach.

Both Beach-based locations are furnished with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, where you can enjoy all the bistro fare your heart desires.

Crema Gourmet Espresso Bar is located at 3400 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33140. For more information, visit their official website.

La Provence Boulangerie

You’ll be hard-pressed to find a more authentic French café and patisserie on Miami Beach than La Provence Boulangerie.

La Provence has been baking some of the best bread, prepping some of the prettiest cakes and brewing exceptionally fine coffee for Miami Beach locals and they’ve only gotten better with theyears, which is exactly why they’ve been a mainstay for almost three decades. If you’re looking to take your latte with a truly traditional éclair, look no further than La Provence.

La Provence Boulangerie is located at 433 W 41st St, Miami Beach, FL 33140. For more information, visit their official website.

Panther Coffee

There’s really only one word that’s synonymous with coffee shops in Miami and that word is Panther. Panther Coffee has become the preeminent local roaster and brewer of high-end coffee and with outposts across the city, you’ll have no trouble getting the caffein boost you need.

The Miami Beach location is situated just across from the Sunset Harbor marina, so you can get a cold brew or a nitro and go for a stroll along the water.

And if you’re looking for a low-key spot with big lovely windows to park yourself and work, read a book, or just while away the day with a Chemex of coffee, there’s plenty of room for you to do that too.

Panther Coffee is located at 1875 Purdy Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

The Best Italian Restaurants in Miami Beach

Casa Isola Osteria

Casa Isola occupies the Sunset Harbor space that once served as the well-loved Pubbelly Sushi’s original location and it maintains all of its predecessor’s high standards.

This should come as no surprise as the hot Italian concept eatery comes from the mind of Chef Jose Mendin, the restauranteur behind Pubbelly and all its popular sister restaurants. Mendin at the helm means you’ll find a menu where the ingredients come first and everything is made from scratch, from the wild mushroom polenta to the short rib ravioli.

Cecconi’s Miami

Not only is Cecconi’s located in Soho Beach House on Mid-Beach, the place everyone is clamoring to find a friend to get them into, it’s got chic locations in metropolises around the world, from London to Istanbul and Berlin to Mumbai.

The Miami Beach outpost sports an elegant garden aesthetic that lends itself to their Venetian style fare. The menu ranges from unpretentious wood-fired pizzas to the king of all steaks, the Bistecca alla Fiorentena, a 32-oz. porterhouse served with potatoes and mushroom sauce. Plus, Soho House members and Soho friends receive priority booking and exclusive discounts.

Cecconi’s Miami is located at 4385 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33140. For more information, visit their official website.

Limoncello Miami

When you find yourself in an old school Italian restaurant that has giant cans of peeled pomodoro, heaping bags of polenta and long dangling strings of onions, garlic, and Calabrian peppers in the windows, you know you’re going to get a good meal.

Such is the case whenever you’re fortunate enough to get a table at Limoncello. The trattoria trappings are only outshone by the Southern Italian style cuisine, featuring classics like Spaghetti alle Vongole and Chicken Parmigiana.

Limoncello Miami is located at 1334 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Macchialina

Macchialina describes its dishes as “rustic yet sophisticated” which is both accurate and understating how special it is.

There are few chefs in town with as many stars as Macchialina’s Michael Pirolo has accrued over the years and the food is all the proof you need to understand why. The menu, which changes with inspiration and seasonality, is a testament to one of the fundamental ideals of Italian cookery: that the food should be simple, that the flavors should be robust, that the ingredients should be superb.

Macchialina also has a chef’s tasting menu that makes for an incredibly special night out and their wine list, curated by their expert sommelier (who also happens to be chef Pirolo’s little sister), has earned them awards from Wine Spectator and Spirited Miami.

Macchialina is located at 820 Alton Rd, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Pane e Vino

Looking for a place to get cozy over a bottle of Brunello and split some antipasti in the half-lit intimacy of a proper trattoria?

Look no further than Pane e Vino. The atmosphere here is a breath of fresh air on the Washington strip, a quaint place to get comfortable and enjoy their homemade pastas and one of their delightful secondi plates like the Mediterranean Branzino.

Whatever you wind up ordering, don’t skimp out on the tiramisu, which is so good, it may make you rethink everything you knew about your life.

Pane e Vino is located at 1450 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

The Best Sushi Restaurants in Miami Beach

Katana

If you want sushi that’s served in a setting that’s a little more laid back without sacrificing atmosphere or quality, Katana in Normandy Isle is the place to go.

This is one of those local institutions that feels like it’s been around since time immemorial and that’s been doing what they do best for as long as anyone can recall. The restaurant seats 25 and all the seats surround a river where boats float by with individual rolls and nigiri that you scoop up and pay for by the plate when you’re finished.

And as easy as it is to get mesmerized by the current of fish food and the sushi chef prepping fresh plates in the middle of it all, you can also order items from the kitchen in the back like udon, Takoyaki or veggie tempura.

Just be sure to be patient – Katana doesn’t take reservations and with its devoted following and its two dozen seats, there’s almost always a wait.

Katana is located at 920 71st St, Miami Beach, FL 33141. For more information, visit their official website.

Makoto

Inside the glamorous Bal Harbour shops, you’ll find Makoto, a fine dining experience that offers the type of craftsmanship and attention to detail emblematic of Japanese cuisine and Edomae-style sushi.

The level of finesse in the execution of every dish, from the nigiri to the koji-aged strip steak, is accentuated and elevated by the warm lighting and rich golden wood that seems to glow throughout the restaurant. This is definitely the kind of dining experience you want to have for a special occasion – and if you don’t have a special occasion, just make one up. It’ll be well worth it.

Makoto is located at 9700 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33154. For more information, visit their official website.

Nossa Omakase

Nossa Omakase isn’t just a place you go for sushi, it’s a place you go for a show. From the minute you enter the dark speakeasy atmosphere with it’s brilliantly colorful accent lights, you can tell this meal is going to go hard.

Nossa Omakase is located at 1600 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Pubbelly

Ever since it opened in 2010, Pubbelly has been a Miami Beach instant classic, the kind that leads to more locations popping up around South Florida and around the Caribbean, from Miami to Mexico City.

The Sunset Harbor OG remains a local favorite after nearly 15 years, still crafting their unique mix of traditional ingredients like bigeye tuna and Japanese eggplant with fusion elements like cotija cheese, arroz pegao, and anticucho.

With so much flavor filling the menu, it can be hard to pick what your order’s going to be, but lucky for you, Pubbelly has multiple tasting menus to let you savor all they’ve got to offer.

Pubbelly is located at 1424 20th St, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Sushi Bar Miami Beach

Sushi Bar is where you go when you want to eat like Joe Rogan, but you’re not in the mood for elk meat. Sushi Bar Miami Beach, located in the Esme Hotel, is the South Beach offshoot of the original Sushi Bar in Austin, which has earned praise from the world’s most famous (and sometimes most controversial) podcast host along with plenty of his famous friends.

Why? Because this 16-course omakase experience delivers on all fronts, from the sublimely understated décor to the scrupulous attention to detail in each piece of sushi served to the creative combinations like their signature dish of unagi topped with toasty bone marrow.

Sushi Bar Miami Beach is located at 1438 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

The Best Breakfast in Miami Beach

Big Pink

This South Beach eatery has been living up to its name for almost 30 years, serving up huge servings of American classics that are the definition of what breakfast ought to be.

Tucked in a bright pink building beneath hot pink awnings, Big Pink’s plates never disappoint, no matter how big your appetite. Their thick cut French toast and gigantic pancakes are the stuff of legend on the Beach, but make sure not to skimp on the savory dishes like their fried chicken and home fries.

Big Pink is located at 157 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Crema Gourmet Espresso Bar

It shouldn’t come as any surprise to see Crema popping up again on this list, especially since their breakfasts are the kind that make you want to go to sleep immediately so that you can just wake up and have it be breakfast time again.

Good news: Crema believes in the enlightened philosophy of having breakfast all day so whenever you’re in the mood for their pillowy omelets or sweet Nutella crepes, you can pop in and get your fix no matter what time it is.

Pura Vida is located 1940 Alton Rd, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

The Best Restaurants for Happy Hour in Miami Beach

Casa Isola

Besides being serving up some of the tastiest pasta and antipasto in Sunset Harbor, Casa Isola is also home to one of the best happy hours you’ll find in the neighborhood.

Every Tuesday through Thursday from 5 to 7pm, come by for the $12 dollar dishes, like the stuffed Italian hot sausage and the arancini loaded with taleggio cheese. And while you’re there, make sure to wash those bites down with a drink (or two) since cocktails, beers and wine are all half off during happy hour.

CJ’s Crab Shack

How do you take a wonderful boozy idea like happy hour and make it even better? Add crab claws.

CJ’s Crab Shack has made a name for itself as a happy hour destination with its ridiculously well-priced drinks, its uniquely long happy hour (most days it runs from 4 to 9pm), and of course, the delightful genius of offering large quantities of crustaceans to go along with the alcohol and the upbeat atmosphere.

Editor Pizza

Editor Pizza has made some serious edits to what we mean when we talk about happy hour. This isn’t your typical early bird offering. Instead, Editor Pizza sets itself apart by starting their daily happy hour at 9pm and running it all the way to 11pm, which, coincidentally, is pretty much precisely when we all wish happy hour was.

The $9 house cocktails, $7 margaritas and glasses of wine, and $5 beers are guaranteed to make the hours you spend there just as happy as you’d hope.

Editor Pizza is located at 803 5th St, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Nobu Miami

Nobu’s version of a happy hour is a standout because it’s not a “happy hour,” but rather a tanoshi hour (which translates to pleasant or delightful hour and sounds a lot cooler, doesn’t it?).

Every day from 5 to 7pm, you can enjoy $13 specialty cocktails, $11 glasses of wine and $8 beers at one of the most upscale spots in town. Plus, they have specially-priced bento boxes in case you start to get peckish.

Nobu is located at 4525 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33140. For more information, visit their official website.

Sweet Liberty

In addition to being a favorite bar among locals at just about any hour, Sweet Liberty also happens to be home to one of Miami Beach’s best daily happy hours (from 4 to 8pm).

One-dollar East Coast oysters? Check. Ten-dollar cocktails? Check. In a town where a plate of oysters on ice and two half-decent cocktails can wind up costing you about as much as a car payment, those prices are pretty amazing – and so are the drinks.

The Best Restaurants with a View in Miami Beach

Lido Bayside

The Miami Beach Standard Hotel rests on an island on the Venetian Causeway, floating in the bay between Miami and Miami Beach.

The building was once known as the Lido Spa Hotel, which opened in 1960, and the Standard has retained a great deal of that old Miami Beach charm. Pass under the preserved retro façade and make your way through the garden and just past the cabanas, you’ll find the waterfront restaurant that’s taken on the former hotel’s namesake: the Lido.

The bayside grill is built out onto a dock that offers a view of Biscayne Bay that’s often reserved for the millionaires and billionaires who live along these islands.

It’s one of the best places in the city to enjoy a sunset over the water and there’s hardly a day you can visit where you won’t end up seeing dolphins playing or extravagant yacht parties floating by (and sometimes a combination of the two).

The Lido Bayside is located at 40 Island Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Shuckers

Shuckers is a place for those of us who like the simple pleasures in life: cold beers and strong cocktails, pool tables and TVs to watch the game, fish sandwiches and big chunky chicken wings.

Tucked underneath a Best Western in Treasure Island, Shuckers may seem unassuming at first blush, and it is, but it’s also home to one of the prettiest views of Biscayne Bay and the Intracoastal Waterway you’ll find at any restaurant in Miami Beach.

Whether you drive there or pull up on your boat and tie up at the docks that lead up to the bar, there are no bad seats to be found at Shuckers, only good times.

Shuckers is located at 1819 79th Street Causeway, North Bay Village, FL 33141. For more information, visit their official website.

Smith & Wollensky

It would seem impossible to stand out among a lineage of restaurants with a name that has become synonymous with the tradition of the American chop house serving up big slabs of beef that are dry-aged in house with locations from New York to Taipei.

But the Miami Beach location does just that – it is exceptional among the exceptional. Beyond the first-class service that makes you feel like a king or queen on any occasion and the sumptuous steaks and sides cooked up to perfection, Miami Beach’s Smith & Wollensky has one of the most amazing views you’ll ever get to dine with.

Nestled up against Government Cut in South Pointe Park, the restaurant offers views of the ocean, the beach, Downtown and the Port of Miami, and Fisher Island. The view alone is almost too good to be true, but when your waiter arrives bearing crab cakes, creamed spinach, and a 28 oz. bone-in ribeye, you will know beyond a doubt you have arrived in paradise.

Smith & Wollensky is located at 1 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Watr at the 1 Rooftop

Watr is a testament to that famed old real estate adage – location, location, location. The restaurant sits atop the chic 1 Hotel, 18 stories above Collins Avenue. This perch just next to the shoreline gives you a rarified 360 view from Miami Beach to the Atlantic Ocean.

The view alone would be enough of a reason to pay Watr a visit, but the menu makes the case even stronger. Watr serves up a range of Peruvian Japanese fusion items that utilize local ingredients like Florida grouper ceviche and shrimp anticuchos that will leave your tastebuds as awestruck as the view leaves your eyes.

Watr at the 1 Rooftop is located at 2341 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

The Best Pizza Restaurants in Miami Beach

Blozzom Pizza

Miami Beach has always had plenty of pizza options, but for the longest time, it was almost impossible to find proper al taglio style pizza – until Blozzom opened up.

The North Beach eatery serves up rectangular pies in the Roman fashion that they cut with scissors into whatever size slices your heart desires. The pies have a wide range of toppings, from classics like pepperoni and cheese to mortadella with truffle ricotta and sauteed spinach with gorgonzola.

Blozzom Pizza is located at 7341 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33141. For more information, visit their official website.

Harry’s Pizzeria

It’s hard to think of any ventures in this city that chef Michael Schwartz and his Genuine Hospitality Group have opened that have been anything short of amazing and Harry’s Pizzeria is no exception.

The newest location in Miami Beach offers up all the things locals have loved about Harry’s since the first one opened in 2011, from the cool, no frills atmosphere to the inventive and addictive dishes like the short rib pizza with caramelized onions and arugula or the mozzarella sticks that redefined the universally-loved appetizer.

Harry’s Pizzeria is located at 1680 Meridian Ave #102, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

La Leggenda Pizzeria

Set in the picturesque Española Way, La Leggenda Pizzeria is the brainchild of Giovanni Galiardi, a former winner of the World Pizza Championship in the Neapolitan category.

La Leggenda does what its founder has always done best: exceptional Neapolitan pizzas, presented simply so as to showcase the fresh ingredients, the airy dough, and the care and craftsmanship that go into making the perfect pie.

La Leggenda Pizzeria is located at 224 Española Way, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Lucali

What is there to say that hasn’t already been said about Lucali? The Brooklyn-based pizza shop has garnered the highest of praise from the most revered and respected voices around.

Everyone loves Lucali, from chef and restauranteur, David Chang, who dedicated almost an entire episode of Ugly Delicious to Lucali chef Mark Iacono, to pizza connoisseur and Miami Beach transplant, Dave Portnoy, who regularly hails the Brooklyn pizzeria as one of his favorite pizzas in the world.

And the Miami Beach sister location, set in a calm side street in Sunset Harbor, lives up to all the excellence of the original. The menu at Lucali Miami Beach is as simple as the Brooklyn pizzeria, featuring pizza, calzone, along with only a few other plates, and for good reason – you don’t mess with a good thing.

Lucali is located at 1930 Bay Rd, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.

Mister O1 Extraordinary Pizza

This Miami Beach Pizzeria got its original name from the O-1 Visa, which is specifically reserved for those with extraordinary abilities. While it may be a bit forward to throw extraordinary into the name of your eatery, this pizza shop lives up to its own hype.

Their creative and unique pizzas, like the signature Star Luca, which features crust that’s ornately folded into pointed ricotta-filled pockets, have not only earned them a loyal following at all their locations in South Florida, but have also led to franchises opening in Texas, Spain and Saudi Arabia.

Mister 01 is located at 1680 Michigan Ave STE 101, Miami Beach, FL 33139. For more information, visit their official website.
