You only have until the end of September to take advantage of Miami’s most raved-about foodie season, Miami Spice. From now through September 30, checkout your favorite restaurants—like StripSteak by Michael Mina, db Bistro Moderne, Tamarina and 200+ more—for lunch or dinner, and get three-course prix-fixe meals for $23 and $39, respectively.
$1 Breakfast at Mondrian South Beach
This month, breakfast lovers can head to Mondrian Caffé {1100 West Avenue, South Beach; 305.514.1500} and enjoy a continental breakfast for two people for just $1. Prepared by Executive Chef Dustin Atiogue, the continental breakfast options include: gourmet coffee, fresh fruit, homemade pastries, bagels, toast and cereal. Then, when you’re done, head to the pool and take in the Mondrian’s perfect views of beautiful Biscayne Bay.
Argiano Wine Dinner at Toscano Divino
On Saturday, September 24, guests can head to Toscano Divino {900 South Miami Avenue, Brickell; 305.930.8052} for a spectacular evening of charcuterie, cheese and glasses overflowing with Argiano Wine. The event costs $35 per person, and includes tastings of six of the winery’s offerings paired with delectable Tuscan bites. That evening, cases of Argiano Wine will be on sale for a discounted price, and throughout September, any customer who purchases $300+ of Argiano wine will be entered in a raffle to win a three-day stay at the Castle of Argiano Winery in Tuscany.
Izzy’s Fish & Oyster Celebrates One-Year
It’s no coincidence that Izzy’s Fish & Oyster {423 Washington Avenue, Miami Beach; 305.397.8843} is celebrating its first anniversary on National Lobster Day. To honor this exciting day, the restaurant is offering all-you-can-eat lobster rolls and Narragansett beer for just $25 all day on Sunday, September 25.
Baby Got Bao Buns at TALDE
Starting September 22, TALDE Miami Beach {4041 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach; 786.605.4094} will turn-up the old-school hip-hop and throw in a mouthwatering menu of bao buns and beer with its new standing Thursday night event: Baby Got Bao Buns. From 6 pm to midnight, guests can indulge in three bao buns—like the Cuban Bao (roasted pork, swiss cheese, mustard, and cilantro), the Pork Belly Bánh Mi Bao (hoisin, cucumber, pickled daikon, and carrot and chili mayo) and even an Avocado Bao (pickled squash, cilantro and chili mayo)—for $20, or get each of them a la carte for just $8 per bun. For an extra $7, throw in a beer from Wynwood Brewing Company. And then get ready for Friday.
National Key Lime Pie Day
Who in South Florida doesn’t love Key Lime Pie? This Friday, September 23, celebrate National Key Lime Pie Day at some of Miami’s best restaurants. Our personal favorite is the Key Lime Tartlet from StripSteak by Michael Mina {4441 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach; 877.326.7412}, in the Fontainebleau Miami Beach, which is semi-deconstructed, flavored with caramelized honey and lemongrass sorbet, and served cut up in pieces, making it perfect for sharing.
