North Miami Restaurants

While North Miami Beach is South Beach's quieter, more laid-back cousin, the variety of restaurants and bars in this neighborhood still offers plenty of options. Miami's food culture draws heavily from Latin influences: Cuban coffees, Venezuelan arepas and Argentinian empanadas are a staple of any Miami breakfast scene. In addition to local Latin favorites, this neighborhood offers quaint cafes, outstanding foreign fare and upscale dining. Thai and Mediterranean cuisines are popular here, and a number of restaurants try to incorporate locally caught seafood and freshly picked local fruits. The food scene in North Beach wouldn't be complete without a few juice and smoothie bars to get your fix of kale, beet, carrot and pineapple juices packed with vitamins to keep you energized for a day of surfing.
