Description:
AVENTURA. Local chef Scott Fredel has opted for a relaxed atmosphere at stylish, upscale Pilar. Hardwood floors, comfortable seating and original art give the restaurant a modern bistro feel that completely belies its strip-mall location. Floribbean seafood is the specialty, prepared with a deft hand and perky island flavors. Try seared mahi mahi, sautéed yellowtail snapper or fried conch with hearts of palm slaw, and wrap things up with moist chocolate chip banana cake. Affordable wines are a great boon, as is early-bird dining from 5pm to 6pm. |

AVENTURA. This local hotspot has a reputation for serving some of South Florida's finest meals, thanks to Chef Allen Susser's creativity.

Colorful decor and solicitous service also contribute to an out-of-this-world dining experience. |

Description:
BAY HARBOR ISLANDS. Everything is BIG here, so make sure you show up with a hearty appetite. This New York-style chophouse has fashioned itself after the famous steakhouse in Manhattan. The fun, nostalgic decor includes clubby dark woods, comfortable booths and caricatures adorning the walls. Steak is the focus here, but the jumbo-sized Maine lobster tail is also one of the more popular menu options. They don't boast of being fancy, everything is plain and simple. But rest assured – the reputation has created legions of loyal followers who care more about savoring strip steak than spotting supermodels. |

Description:
MIAMI BEACH. For American cuisine with a creative twist, try the elegant Forge. Chock-full of eye-catching antiques and vivid stained glass, it's a visual treat. The extensive menu draws you in, offering tantalizing herb-infused escargot, tropical sea bass with avocado salsa and prime rib grilled over aromatic Tuscan oakwood. Beef is a favorite, and the 16-ounce aged "Super Steak" has been named the nation's number one steak by "Wine Spectator." Speaking of wines, the cellar houses an enormous collection – more than 300,000 bottles of various vintages. Finish your meal with a gravity-defying Belgian chocolate soufflé. Reservations required. Jacket and tie suggested. |

Description:
SOUTH BEACH. Dark woods, brick walls, the glint of mirrors and rich, warm colors soothe diners at well-received Talula. The brainchild of Andrea Curto-Randazzo and Frank Randazzo, married chefs who have gained much recognition individually and together, the restaurant benefits from perfect ingredients and careful attention to detail. This quality is seen in grilled foie gras with caramelized mission figs, black grouper with preserved lemons and thyme, barbecued spiced duck breast, and yellowtail snapper with sweet potato-wild mushroom risotto. Desserts also benefit from the chefs' culinary expertise, and a lovely garden patio is sublime when the weather's mild. |

Description:
SOUTH BEACH. This seafood restaurant is found inside the hip, stylish Delano Hotel. A sibling to the hotel's Blue Door restaurant, which attracts upscale scene-makers, Blue Sea caters to a more low-key clientele, who don't want to spend a fortune on dinner. However, the cuisine is still incredibly fresh and modern, with a focus on creative seafood. Try dishes like barbecued eel, stone crabs with coconut, or sushi rolls stuffed with unique ingredients like almonds and olives. The family-style seating at this restaurant makes it a fun place to meet locals and fellow travelers. |

Description:
SOUTH BEACH. Former figure skater and production designer Barton G. Weiss has distinguished himself for years as a Miami event planner. Now his penchant for spectacle makes its way to the culinary world. Within the sleek dining room, showmanship joins flavor and innovation, resulting in a menu of reinvented American favorites that relies as much on appearance as on taste. Popcorn shrimp is served in a popcorn box on a bed of popcorn, and sea bass is steamed in a paper bag and then unveiled at the table. Lamb chops, a NY strip, glazed duck, fried chicken and a trio of seafood pot pies also figure into the broad menu. Plus, intriguing desserts are as dramatically plated as any you'll find. |
