Many restaurants tend to be closed on Mondays. But hunger never rests: If you’re looking to start your week on the right foot, check out these restaurants that will definitely be open.
Bar Tulio’s
Make your Monday spicier with a visit to Bar Tulio’s. The spacious eatery brings Wynwood’s artsy vibe to life with exciting Mexican flavors and a cocktail list that begs for a second round. Feast on street-style tacos stuffed with tender carnitas or crispy grouper, or dive into a classic ceviche bursting with citrusy zing. Wash it all down with a handcrafted margarita or a smoked old fashioned that will make you forget it’s only Monday. The upbeat atmosphere and colorful decor make it the perfect spot to ease into the week with a little fiesta.
CJ’s Crab Shack
Whether you’re looking for a tasty and affordable lunch or dinner, you’ve come to the right place. South Beach CJ’s Crab Shack is open every day from noon to midnight – and we’re very grateful for that generous schedule. It’s good to know we can stop in at almost any time and get some delicious snow crab, fried shrimp, or seafood pasta.
Costa Med
Key Biscayne’s Costa Med is another great spot with a convenient schedule. Open every day for dinner and almost every day for lunch, it’s always a good time to visit the neighborhood gem. At this Mediterranean-inspired eatery, you can have it all, from French onion soup, steak tartare, and octopus carpaccio to lobster ravioli, honey-roasted salmon, and lamb chops; there’s something for everyone.
La Natural
Pizza night, but make it gourmet: La Natural redefines the pizza game with delicious dough and high-quality toppings that let simplicity shine. Think earthy mushrooms, creamy burrata and perfectly charred crusts coming straight out of the oven. Complement all that with a curated wine list featuring natural wines, and you’ve got a Monday night that feels effortlessly chic. La Natural’s minimalist decor and intimate setting make it a hidden gem you’ll want to keep to yourself.
The Lobster Shack
Lobster Shack on Lincoln Road and South of Fifth shares the same convenient schedule of its sibling concept, CJ’s Crab Shack. Both locations are open every day starting at 11 a.m. (South Pointe) or noon (Lincoln Road). That means you can swing for some of the best lobster rolls in town at your leisure. Both outposts also feature an array of non-lobster items like seared tuna salad, fish tacos, fried fish sandwiches, and even burgers.
Paperfish Sushi
Paperfish Sushi combines two great cuisines – Peruvian and Japanese – for a magical dinner experience. Whether you visit the Brickell outpost or the Miami Beach location, you can expect consistent cuisine and service. What we like to do is get something from each major menu section: Start with a ceviche, try a roll, and finish up the savory courses with the restaurant’s signature crispy truffle rice. For dessert, the Thai tea crème brulee is the best of a tasty bunch.
Porterhouse Music Bar & Restaurant
Elevate your week with a symphony of flavors and sounds. Porterhouse Music Bar & Restaurant in Sunny Isles Beach seamlessly blends the classic steakhouse experience with live entertainment, creating a fun atmosphere that turns any evening into an event. Indulge in premium items like their signature 18 oz. Porterhouse special or savor fresh seafood selections that dance on your palate. The menu boasts a little bit of everything, making it perfect for large groups or picky eaters. Expect Porterhouse to transform your typical Monday night into a memorable occasion.
Primo’s
Start your week with a taste of Italy: Primo’s is Downtown Miami’s answer to satisfying carb cravings and elevating your dinner plans. Think delectable fettuccine Alfredo, delicious chicken parm, and wood-fired pizzas that’ll have you on Cloud 9 every bite. Their elegant yet approachable vibe makes it perfect for a Monday night date or a power dinner to kick off your week. Don’t miss their tiramisu – it’s the sweet ending you didn’t know you needed.
RED South Beach
When it comes to great steaks in Miami, RED South Beach is always on the shortlist. This South of Fifth icon is known for its quality cuts, which can be enjoyed every day, including Mondays. What you may not know is the restaurant serves way more than just steaks. Mussels diavolo, arugula, and prosciutto salad, carbonara, tuna tataki… You’ll find dozens of salads, pasta dishes, raw bar selections, seafood, and more here.
