Miami is famous for its vibrant food scene, but some of its best dining experiences are tucked away, waiting to be discovered. As a self-proclaimed foodie who loves exploring beyond the usual hotspots, I’ve uncovered a few hidden gems that are absolute must-tries.
One of my favorite finds is Kush by Stephen’s in Little River. This cozy spot is a haven for craft beer enthusiasts and burger lovers. Their Frita Burger, a Cuban-inspired masterpiece with spiced beef, guava jelly, and crispy potato sticks, is an explosion of flavor. Paired with a local brew, it’s the perfect way to unwind after a long day.
For a taste of authentic Peruvian food, I stumbled upon La Mar Peruvian Bistro in a quiet corner of Brickell. Their lomo saltado (stir-fried beef with onions and tomatoes) is tender and perfectly seasoned. But the real star? Their ceviche trio, which showcases the bold and refreshing flavors of Peru.
Another hidden gem is Boia De, a charming eatery near Little Haiti. The intimate space and quirky décor make it feel like you’ve entered a secret club. Their crispy polenta with mushroom ragu is a dish I can’t stop dreaming about.
