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. |

Description:
SOUTH BEACH. Bask in the sun and scope out the foot traffic as you lounge al fresco at casual, affordable Spris. Impossibly thin-crusted pizzas baked in a wood-burning oven are the draw, topped with broccoli, capers, marinated eggplant, calamari, artichoke hearts, prosciutto, mozzarella and sausage. Calzones and panini are reliably hearty as well. Although creative salads appeal to vigilant figure-watchers, the tiramisu is worthy of a little diet digression. |

Description:
SOUTH BEACH. After a hard night of clubbing or bar-hopping, nothing's better than a hefty sandwich from this walk-up counter right off Collins Avenue. Crusty French bread is piled high with your choice of meats (from turkey and prosciutto to pâté and smoked salmon), cheeses and condiments. If you need a veggie fix, opt for a salad – all are generous, fresh and tasty. Smoothies and frozen yogurt satisfy sweet-tooth urgings, and prices are more than affordable. Expect a line, though, because the place attracts a crowd all day long. |

Description:
LITTLE HAVANA. Surrounded by Cuban and Spanish eateries, this Vietnamese gem is always crowded with regulars who appreciate the cuisine's spicy, subtle flavors. Don't expect lovely decor – the room is sparse and plain, and the service has a reputation for being a bit slow. But your patience will be rewarded with some of the best Vietnamese food in Miami. Have an exotic beer and then enjoy the pork, a winner in a unique sauce made with ground nuts. Or try dolphin in mango sauce with crisp, flavorful spring rolls – a specialty of the house. Various fresh catches are always available, typically enhanced by sauces featuring tropical fruit and herbs. |

A nice wine list and a short but stellar dessert menu make this an all-around winner. Business casual attire. |

Description:
DORAL. When you're craving a quick burrito, bypass that fast food chain and head straight for Mrs. M's! It's just as quick and economical, but there's no comparison in taste. Everything on the brief menu is good, from burritos to tacos to fajitas, and it all comes with a side of tortilla chips. You can even score a combination plate or a salad. Don't forget to stop by the salsa bar – each of the several varieties is made fresh daily. Nothing pre-packaged could even come close! |

Description:
What started as one restaurant has grown to a chain of six bustling eateries. The success has been exceptional, and it's a fitting tribute to the award-winning menu that folks often come back for more – and recommend Los Ranchos to their friends. The cuisine has hints of Latin American, Cuban and Nicaraguan styles. Sample the delectable Gallo Pinto, spicy fried rice and red beans, or go the traditional route with their claim to fame – the churrasco. This center-cut tenderloin, chargrilled to perfection, is a favorite with regulars. Early-bird dinner specials are an impressive bargain. |
