Do not miss out on these Miami eats. October was a delicious month, and these are the six spots that made my favorites list, from an award-winning burger to a cookie skillet I'm still thinking about. Save this one for your next night out.
1. La Birra Bar
We started at La Birra Bar, where the Crispy Dubai burger won the People's Choice Award at the South Beach Wine & Food Festival's Burger Bash. I had to get my hands on it.
It's a double smashed burger with white American cheese and crispy onions on a golden toasted bun, and the truffle chimichurri mayo was life-changing. Just look at the onions on that burger. Wow.
2. La Sponda
Next up was La Sponda, the waterfront Italian restaurant at Vita at Grove Isle in Coconut Grove. It's one of Miami's hottest new restaurants, and it did not miss. Service, food and ambiance were all 10 out of 10.
We ordered the truffle pasta, the branzino and the gelato al volo, which is finished right at your table. You'll thank me later.
3. Chevre
Everyone raves about the sandwiches at Chevre on Coral Way, so I had to check it out myself. We ordered the house favorites, the Spaniard and La Italiana. They import their meats and cheeses from different countries in Europe.
We couldn't leave without trying the Basque cheesecake, voted best cheesecake in Miami.
4. Tea Room
Then we headed to Tea Room at EAST, Miami in Brickell for the five-course night brunch. You walk in through what looks like a bank vault door.
Our favorites were the salmon pizza, the wagyu short rib and the bang bang shrimp.
5. Honey Veil
We had to stop by Honey Veil's new Brickell location. The line was insane, but it was 100% worth it.
6. Soho House
We finished at Soho House, and the cookie skillet was life-changing. It comes in the pan with a scoop of ice cream on top.
