July 2024: Say hello to summer! We’re contending with extreme heat, dense humidity and daily storms, but with fewer tourists around, this is a great time to book at any of the Michelin Guide’s newly-starred Miami restaurants. And while there are fewer days to dine outside, on the water or in the sky at a Miami rooftop restaurant this season, consider it an excuse to explore some of Miami’s best things to do when it rains, including cozy wine bars and beautiful museum restaurants.
Our top places to eat in the city are a true mix of flavors and feels, from white tablecloth fine dining—like some of Miami’s best steakhouses—to tried-and-tested cheap eats in Miami that never, ever disappoint. And where there’s a solid cocktail there’s likely to be an epic dish that follows, so expect to run into some of Miami’s best bars on this list.
Just as we’ve always done, Time Out’s local experts scour the city daily for great eats, great value and insider info. We emphasize fun, flavor and freshness at every price point, and update this list monthly with standout finds. If it’s on the list, whether it’s a short-lived pop-up or a mega clubstaurant, we think it’s awesome and hope you will, too.
