There are some restaurants you can always count on to deliver a quality dining experience. These are those restaurants:
BBQ & Craft Company
If you can’t escape to the Mediterranean, Costa Med in Key Biscayne brings the Mediterranean to you. The neighborhood institution features a vast menu of European-inspired cuisine that will wow your taste buds. Among the highlights are steak tartare, octopus carpaccio, pear and gorgonzola ravioli, seared scallops, and chicken rotolato; there are so many offerings here that even the pickiest of eaters will find something to enjoy. While you’re here, make sure to take a look at the wine list, which is full of rare finds.
Ironside Pizza
Unless you’re actively looking for it, it’s easy to miss Ironside Pizza. You’ve probably driven by it without noticing. Don’t make that mistake again: This is the area’s premier spot for pizzas. Expect to find classics like margherita and mushroom pizzas, as well as gourmet selections like the Pizza Calabrese with mozzarella, broccoli rapini, n’duja, and Calabrian chili pepper. Despite the name, the restaurant also offers much more than pizza, including calzones, pastas, and paninis.
Paradise Farms
Brickell’s Toscana Divino is one of those restaurants that needs no introduction: Before Miami’s dining scene really took off, Toscana Divino had been doing its thing at Mary Brickell Village for years. And its thing is awesome Italian food. The restaurant changes its menu seasonally, so guests are always kept on their toes. The wine here is just as big of a draw: The restaurant boasts one of the largest wine collections in South Florida, with hundreds upon hundreds of bottles to enjoy. Whether you visit for lunch, brunch, or dinner, you’re going to have a good time.
