Lagniappe

Miami, Florida

A wine garden in Edgewater that feels like it was transplanted from a Parisian side street — twinkling lights, mismatched chairs, a tree-shaded courtyard, and a chalkboard list of natural wines from places you can't pronounce. The food menu is short and perfect: charcuterie, cheese, a few hot plates that punch above their weight. The antidote to everything loud and bottle-service about Miami nightlife.

Insider tip

Sit in the courtyard, not inside. Order a wine flight if you can't decide and the cheese plate that comes with the daily honey.

Joe's Stone Crab

Joe's Stone Crab

Open since 1913 and still the most essential meal in Miami. The stone crabs arrive cracked, chilled, and served with Joe's legendary mustard sauce that no one has successfully replicated in over a century. The line is absurd and reservations are only for dinner, but that's because everyone in this city knows: this is the real thing.

Ariete
EatCoconut Grove

Ariete

Chef Michael Beltran cooks the food of his Cuban-American childhood through a fine-dining lens, and every plate feels like a love letter to the city. The croqueta prep is a masterclass. The oxtail with bone marrow is obscenely good. Coconut Grove needed a restaurant this serious, and Ariete delivered.

The Surf Club Restaurant by Thomas Keller

Thomas Keller took over the dining room of a 1930s members-only beach club in Surfside, and the result is transportive. The room is all terrazzo floors, arched windows, and ocean light. The food is classic American-French — roast chicken, Dover sole, pristine salads — executed with the precision you'd expect from the man behind The French Laundry.

DrinkDowntown · Las Vegas, Nevada

Park on Fremont

A two-story restaurant and bar on Fremont East with a patio that's earned its place as one of Downtown's most reliable hangouts. The cocktail program leans Old Vegas with a few modern twists, the food is better than it needs to be, and the back patio under string lights is exactly where you want to spend a warm Vegas evening.

DrinkEast Austin · Austin, Texas

Whisler's

An East Austin cocktail bar built into a 1950s storefront that nails the line between dive and craft. Downstairs is the main bar — exposed brick, good music, bartenders who can talk you into something you've never tried. Upstairs is Mezcalería Tobalá, a mezcal-focused rooftop that feels like a secret within a secret.
