JJ1000's list of top restaurants and dishes in Miami:

1. Backyard BBQ (New chef in mid 2017 totally new menu): Burnt ends, 2nd cut brisket, Dinosaur Rib, BBQ Sundae, BBQ Burger.

2. 26: Sushi pizza is  a must I prefer it with baked salmon, then the Passion Mojito, Sushi Teriyaki tempuraed, Cilantro Aioli dip and truffle fires, all of their soups are good. Miso Bass is incredible as well.

3. Harbour Bistro, new menus in early 2018: Chicken and waffles just perfect, duck a l'orange pot stickers, millionaire ramen, lamb shank, charcuterie platter if that's your thing... Also serving brunch, Chicken and waffles again, eggs Benedict with bacon on top,

4. Fuego: Flatbreads are a must, then the back ribs, pastrami egg rolls, smores dessert, perfect date drink are good. (Update March 2017, the app chef and bbq chef isn't there anymore and the quality has been spotty from recent reviews.)

5. Zak The Baker. Menu changes too often to recommend stuff. Not Cholov Yisroel.

6. Kosh: Chocolate souffle and korean beef with extra sauce are good.

7. Rustiko: Spinach and Artichoke Dip, (Quinoa Salad is very good), (Pappardelle Mushroom if lunch), Mushrooms Panzerotti is an absolute must order only down side is it's a dinner only item. Oreo cheescake dessert but make sure it's fresh.

8. Harbour Grill: The Harbour Grill Filet or TheKing Reserve steaks are great. Supreme Burger is very good as well.

9. Pizza type options:

Foozo: Foozolis, the caprese foozoli with extra balsamic sauce and garlic aoili, their pastas are good as well.

Jerusalem Pizza: Best plain pie, get it fresh in store, coated fries good as well.

Lenny's pizza: Gan Eden Pie.

Also notable unique places are The Freeze which makes ices, serendipity makes ice cream (there is one next door to ZTB now), and Miami Beach Chocolates turtles and bark now also in Surfside!

She's not the first. At least a dozen kosher places have said they want it.
They just don't put in the effort required as it wouldn't be profitable to do so.

She's not in a kosher area, so she may get a broader clientele. I wonder if her rent is cheaper, but hoping parking is 👍

But I'll say this, plant in wynwood has great food, service, decor and venue. It's vegan and kosher.

Not a Michelin star.
Worse fake news than YWN!

Just spoke to Moses Cohen of Elvi / clos mesora winery

Says there's 2 kitchens, one kosher one not. For kosher only fish.

I don't know if that's new, friend of mine was going to go 2 years ago and they had to kasher the kitchen then etc

I don't see though why it would be a problem being Michelin and kosher if you're creative enough .

The economics is what anyone will pay. There's a reason though why I feel wine is a critical missing key in kosher Michelin lack thereof.

Besides for anyone actually really doing it.. but, if there are 37 global vegan restaurants, yes I do know that vegan doesn't mean kosher.. but I mean, how hard can it be for a vegan place to be kosher too? I mean it's been done

But the catch is, if a non kosher eater would pay to eat vegan at EMP which I'm sure isn't cheap. Why wouldn't they pay to eat a kosher Michelin restaurant?

Chaim yankel and his wife and 6 kids are not the intended clientle here.. Miami is a huge metropolis with a lot of foreign traffic .

Lots of Mexican Jews moved here or own places, Panama, Argentina you name it.

Most of these eat at non kosher vegan or fish places.. and many can appreciate Michelin level dinning.

The proof is in the pudding. There has never been a kosher restaurant with a Michelin star.

Wake me up when there is one.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I just don't think anybody's had the foresight or the vision yet

https://guide.michelin.com/us/en/restaurants/sushi

There are 221 sushi restaurants in the world with Michelin stars 4 in Miami

The kashrut issue of food I think is less concern than being closed Shabbat. That's what I think makes it hard to cater to non kosher people. Though plant is open Shabbat but doesn't have a mainstream hechsher

Friday afternoon / night, Saturday afternoon night are massive for fine dinning

Quote
Diners’ preferred days have remained consistent with weekends, more specifically Saturdays, continuing to lead as the most popular day of the week for eating out, accounting for 30% of weekly reservations, followed by Sunday and Friday (23% and 19% of weekly reservations, respectively).

I think motzash is a write off for a fine dinning restaurant even winter weeks ..

I also wonder how much would be lost by anything not consumed Friday afternoon

 So yeah maybe we'll get Michelin restaurants with decent hechsher that's open Shabbat

I also wonder how much would be lost by anything not consumed Friday afternoon

 So yeah maybe we'll get Michelin restaurants with decent hechsher that's open Shabbat
Nowhere does it state that Michelin stars have anything to do with when the restaurant is open.

Right,
So I was thinking that vegan and sushi restaurants mean kosher is certainly viable and doable .

Pricing isn't relevant in Michelin star world

The economics of being closed Friday 19% customers (although you can swing lunch )

And Shabbat 30% of customers, is crushing

Also Michelin restaurants usually have 100% booking so they can keep up the high expenses

I did click one place that's closed Monday and Tuesday and that makes sense to recover from crazy weekends

I'm looking into indoor activities, has anyone been to superblue miami? The pictures look cool but Im not sure what it is, and if its worth the fee. Also has anyone been to the wolfsonian, is it interesting?
Any other indoor recs would be helpful, thanks.

What is the current availability of Dine-In Restaurant Shabbos meals in Miami (anywhere)?

Wiki doesn't seem updated.

Does anyone offer Shabbos Day meals?

Looking to go just for Shabbos.

Damn that was a heavy dinner.

Ostrow decor was fantastic, service was insane. @jj1000 a bit accurate on chairs, not terrible but not great. They installed a sink for washing .

Food was A- as in it was great but crazy heavy.
