Pizza Rustica South Beach

Pizza fanatics went wild when Miami’s Pizza Rustica opened an outpost in Lauderdale — this is designer Tuscan pizza, thinly crusted, topped with imaginative combos like spinach and blue cheese, porcini mushrooms, prosciutto, yellow squash, four cheese, and arugula-rosemary-potato. The “campagnola” features sweet sausage, roasted peppers, sweet onions, and plum tomato sauce; the “putanesca” is […]

Racks Italian Bistro and Market

The concise menu here is slightly more extensive than at owner Gary Rack’s other venue, Table 42 Italian Kitchen & Wine Bar in Boca Raton (formerly Coal Mine Pizza). Both spots specialize in coal-fired pies but also offer starters, salads, and pastas; Racks adds a handful of fish, meat, and poultry entrées to the mix. […]

Ricochet Bar & Lounge

The sexy vibe of this hip new bar and lounge in Midtown capitalizes on the energy of the growing art scene in the city. Ricochet exhibits a commitment to showcasing new work in a way the traditional gallery space cannot. Their limited edition coaster sets, designed by established and cutting edge artists, rotate regularly; so […]

Seven Seas

Sports and the sea collide at this sunken ship of a locals bar. Pirate paraphernalia and random sports equipment litter the walls and ceilings giving off a friendly hole in the wall atmosphere. Stare at the naked mermaid busts, jam to a live band, or try your luck at pool.

Shots Miami

If the name of this place doesn’t start you singing “SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS EVERYBODY,” we can’t even handle you right now. LMFAO would be so disappointed. Shots Miami is Wynwood’s own interactive shot bar, meaning, everyone pretty much makes an ass of themselves in order to score some booze. But hell, alcohol’s […]

The Stage

The Stage is uniquely located underneath the I-195 causeway just off NE 2nd Ave in the Design District. A venue with plenty of room to dance and a stage that’s hosted Miami’s finest, there’s always bands rocking out here, and local performers have named it as one of their favorite places to play at. National […]

Story Nightclub

Where did the Heat team celebrate their 2013 championship — and rack up a $100K tab, no less? Meet Story. That parable should say it all about this 27,000 square foot South Beach dance club’s prestige factor. Story is all about getting impressive names on-stage, from Avicii to Luciano to Seth Troxler. And here, people […]

Sweat Records

In the days of digital, for a record store to thrive requires more than a little entrepreneurial spirit – and the music Gods looking kindly on you doesn’t hurt either. Luckily, Sweat Records is much more than a record retailer. The Little Haiti venue is the unofficial headquarters for Miami’s indie set. It’s a music […]

Treehouse

This high-end venue with a cool treehouse theme and indoor outdoor areas is one of the hippest new clubs on South Beach. The club boasts cutting-edge bookings of internationally renowned electronic dance music DJs and live performers. But there are also more mainstream nights to keep pop-hungry tourists happy as well. The mix of locals, […]

The Vagabond

The outskirts of Miami’s Overtown hood are becoming a gentrified version of the Sunset Strip in LA. This club’s DJ plays Bad Brains, as skate videos are projected onto a large outdoor movie screen. Any questions? Famous UK DJ John Digweed is one of the owners, we voted it the Best New Bar in 2008, […]
