Discover Downtown Miami
It'd be easy to solely recognize Downtown Miami's high-quality Cuban cuisine, ignoring the other, tremendous restaurants located in the culture enclave, but that simply wouldn't be fair. Powerful sunshine rays, smiling locals, and one of the most gorgeous skyline views in the country are just bonuses to the wide variety of cuisine in Downtown Miami. Again, the Cuban food is tremendous, but consider Peruvian eateries, authentic French bistros, underrated American establishments, and businesses committed solely to offering the very best seafood all sweeten the deal. Needless to say, Florida's seafood — especially the lobster — must be tried, but Downtown Miami's eye-opening key lime pie is sure to wow anyone with a sweet tooth. There's a lot to see and do in Downtown Miami, and any energy spent enjoying the sights can quickly be replenished at a top-notch restaurant.
