Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Miami Beach

"Juvia, the stunning restaurant on the rooftop of the iconic 1111 Lincoln Road building in South Beach, features a brunch menu worthy of its postcard-perfect setting. The restaurant is known for its harmonious blending of French, Japanese and Peruvian cooking styles. Start with bottomless cocktails such as Aperol spritz, prosecco or mimosas before tucking into an inventive appetizer like ceviche carretillero with white fish, crispy calamari and red onions."

"Accessed only by a private elevator, Juvia greets guests with an unobstructed 360-degree view of South Beach’s famed Art Deco district. Here, the kitchen focuses on the blending of French, Japanese and Peruvian cuisine, flaunting a selection of crudos, tiraditos, seafood and meats cooked on a charcoal grill. There’s even a display of vertical gardens, designed by botanist Patrick Blanc, meant to resemble the Amazon rainforest."

"With panoramic views of South Beach, this swanky penthouse retreat is totally photo-worthy, but it’s more than a pretty post. The menu features a mix of French, Peruvian and Japanese cooking, and whether you’re having the truffle ceviche or crispy prosciutto-topped burrata, you’re in for a memorable meal."

"The Pérez can claim fine rotating exhibits that concentrate on post-WWII international art, but just as impressive are its location and exterior. This art institution inaugurated Museum Park, a patch of land that oversees the broad blue swath of Biscayne Bay. Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron designed the structure, which integrates tropical foliage, glass and metal – a melding of tropical vitality and fresh modernism that is a nice architectural analogy for Miami itself."

"Miami is known for its art, and this collection of contemporary works, Miami’s flagship art museum, is a must-visit. In addition to its rotating exhibits, the museum is home to the Caribbean Cultural Institute, which promotes the arts and culture of the Caribbean. 1103 Biscayne Blvd, Miami | 305.375.5662 l Distance from Hotel: 5.6 miles"

"Taking a stroll into the elaborate gardens will take you to Versailles. Inspired by Venetian architecture, the Vizcaya Museum showcases intricate Renaissance tapestries, Roman sculptures, Chinese object d’art, Rocco furniture, and early 20th century paintings. James Deering estate was built as a private waterfront for the millionaire in 1914."

"A Scarpetta alum helms this tiny, brick-walled taverna, serving handmade corzetti with garlic scapes and asparagus, and spaghetti con gamberi with Key West shrimp and Calabrese chiles, as well as roasted branzino and cabbage cacio e pepe. Unlike your average red sauce joint, the bar pours excellent craft cocktails (including The Speck-tacular Now, featuring honey clove syrup, Jamaican bitters and speck-infused Tin Cup whiskey) as well as an extensive list of Italian and international wines.

"Macchialina, which comes from the words “macchia,” meaning mark or spot, and “maialina,” meaning piglets, aims to be reminiscent of a “small rustic eatery in the heart of any Italian town.” Under chef and owner Michael Pirolo’s lead, it serves up well-executed Italian classics like veal parm, branzino, cacio pepe, alongside with some interesting twists, like broccolini Caesar salad."

"This Italian favorite serves up a variety of its legendary pastas, appetizers like the Caesar broccolini and whipped ricotta, alongside make-at-home pasta kits and wines sold at retail prices."

"South Beach offers an exciting selection of daytime and nighttime opportunities that are truly unlike anything you’ll experience elsewhere. You’ll soon see why booking a night at the Shore Club on South Beach – situated in the heart of Ocean Drive’s promenade and a 10-minute walk from Lincoln Road – is the best way to experience the melting pot of culture and excitement that is Miami. This ultra-chic hotel offers all-new amenities, pools, lounges and a complimentary breakfast, which you can enjoy on the sunlit terraces of the in-house Italian restaurant."

"For the perfect ending to your meal of American classics, save some room for one more dish: homemade pie à la mode. Find an always-changing rotation of freshly baked pies ($12 per slice) made by seasoned pastry chef Joshua Gripper. Flavors include salted lime, cherry apricot, banana cream, and his never-fail blueberry, served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to seal the deal."

"You can’t go wrong with the cafecito at any of La Carreta’s multiple Miami locations, but the Bird Road storefront has arguably the best ventanita of them all. Buzzing with energy and the satisfying hiss of the espresso machine releasing steam, this lively ventanita is where the city gathers when a local sports franchise wins a championship because the powerful doses of Cuban coffee — along with the sticky sweet guava pastries — will keep the celebration going all night. How to get there: Take the Dolphin Expressway/836 west to the Palmetto Expressway/826 South."

"La Carreta’s signature roast-pork sandwich is best enjoyed with homemade crispy plantain chips and a sweet mamey papaya shake. All locations currently offering delivery and take-out, with some offering dine-in eating—check website for details. Various locations; lacarreta.com"
